How Does Your Cat Sleep?

Well, that's good, Islander, My two Kittens are still playing and acting like Kittens, jumping and climbing like Circus Artists all around the Kitchen with great ease and speed close to the speed of Light They rag their toys and watch with great interest what is going on in the garden from the big Kitchen window. They come to the glass door of the Kitchen/Lounge and now demand my presence for a play with them or a stroke and cuddle. The White Kitten (Teasel) now squeaks for a stroke while I'm doing something in the Kitchen and the Black and white Kitten (Fern) was, this morning gently biting and clawing at my foot, because I wasn't wearing shoes. while I was trying to make a Mug of Tea and a Sandwich. So, the smaller, by half, of the Kittens (Fern) will push her sister out of the way when it comes to a stroke or cuddle, or when I've renewed the food I know who's going to be first at the "Trough"......Fern. She's also the most noisiest letting you know that she wants this or that and the first to "investigate" something and get into trouble while her sister sit calmly watching.

 

Their forced, by me, "Bolt Hole" was the Kitchen cushioned chairs where the cushions were under the Table while on the chairs, so they would peer from the chairs at the strange monster coming into the Kitchen. As I said I attempted to close off all nooks and crannies because they could have got trapped, which they did, or injured themselves and so gave them the chairs for them to hide ,cuddle on the cushions. Now that I've been accepted as part of their "family", the giver of cuddles, strokes and scratches, the supplier of food, and the changer of the Cat Litter, their new place of residence is on a nice thick, soft folded blanket on the top of the Kitchen Table.
I'd really love to let them out into the garden and the lovely world of scents, climbing, into the jungle of the garden but if I let them loose now I'd never get them back before nightfall and when I lock up the House. What I don't want is them trying to come back into the House, when they're faced with a locked door, all through the night. My garden fences are 8' high and topped with 3' x 6' frames of slack Chicken Wire to keep my previous cats in, and not become Road Kill, and other cats out which had worked perfectly but, I suspect, that I will need to modify the fence as these two "monkeys" will test the fences like the Raptors in "Jurassic Park" .

 

Well, my Kitten/Cats first slept on the cushioned chairs under the Kitchen table and then onto a nice soft blanket on the Kitchen table, then in the used Cat Food sachet boxes, and now Fern has decided to sleep in the plastic boxes on the Kitchen Worktop in which I put vegetable waste/Tea bags, etc



So then Teasel decided it was a good idea........


So, now the two of them are ensconced in the waste boxes




And there I was contemplating buying either a large Cat basket or two small Cat baskets
