What’s that noise?

When odd an sound occurs I have to check it out. My cats often get into trouble, like flicking off the last third of my banana bread off the counter. It was their gift to Sunny the dog.

This time Barn-E was playing alone.

I get a kick out of him.

I still love him, even when he’s in trouble.

Until next time, that’s all there is from Sunnybook Farm.

Barn-E’s hiding place

Why am I finding bottle tops in my boots?

Barn-E is the reason why.

Bottle caps attract Barn-E. He tosses them around the kitchen, often losing them in corners or under the refrigerator.

I have to rescue his little toys and how does he repay me? He hides them in my boots.

Oh that cat!

Tempted

Last night, my cats had a riot at bedtime. Barn-E especially was bopping around my bed.

This morning, both cats were snoozing, peacefully. I was so tempted to jar them awake, but I didn’t. When awake, they would only leap back into trouble.

So I resisted and went about my business, only to have them join me in the kitchen when I wanted to cook.

“Go back to sleep!” I told them. Of course, they didn’t listen.

Such is life.

Boing!

Barn-E has been released from his nightly lockup and is free to roam the house. Last night he joined me upstairs.

It was the first time, Barn-E found the cat tree in my bedroom. Usually, Car-E was the only one sitting up there. Of course, Barn-E immediately found the boing-toy and started to play.

The noise kept me awake for a while, but eventually, he stopped and I fell asleep.

Car-E has no interest in the boinger anymore. Now, it’s all Barn-E’s. I just hope he finds a different time to play with it instead of bedtime.

Redecorating cats

I’ve used a throw on my couches to keep cat hair at a minimum, but not anymore.

Car-E never bothered the throw until Barn-E came into the picture.

Now I’ll find one or two sleeping beneath the cover.

It sure defeats the purpose of keeping hair off the couch when they are under the throw.
