Opie the TV Star Dec 17 2010. I should have posted this in December but too much was going on with Nicholas and Louisiana Louie. KCPQ FOX channel 13 Seattle used to put up pet photos people sent in showing pets and weather. I let my cats out one snowy day and took their photo. Then I let them go back inside to warm up. My photo got selected for broadcast. They notified me what day and time it would be on, The presenter is Erin Mayovsky who still works there. You can see Opie right front. They were a great cat family. I made a video and took the still photos from it. Whenever I see Erin, I remember that day so long ago.




Reindeer Games. A couple Christmas’s back, Opie got a reindeer tent. This was when she lived in a bedroom on her own away from the two boys, who loved to bother her. They would sit in her tent just for spite. I got a second one for them downstairs. When they crossed over she moved downstairs into the master bedroom and never returned. She won’t use either tent. I took the tent downstairs but she doesn’t want it, so I put it back in her old room. Now Louie has found it and likes to sleep in it, or watch me use the PC. A new generation has moved in.

Louie spends alot of his time in one bedroom under the bed in the daytime, and jumping around playing with toys all night long. He sticks his head out to eat just like Nicholas . Often I calI him Nicholas by mistake. I miss Nicholas a lot. I wondered if Louie knew what a toy was, but he likes them all. I can touch him and he purrs being petted. He is wary of me walking around. He meows and eats whatever he gets. He has a long tail but you can not see it here. Getting a photo of him is like trying to get one of Bigfoot. He has seen Opie. She came into his room and they exchanged slow eye blinks, then she ran downstairs. He did not follow. At night they scratch the door–one on each side. The door is closed at night to avoid him getting into trouble. In the day he does not venture far from the door.

Named after St. Nicholas, he lived here 11 months and this would have been his first Christmas in a new home. I miss him a lot. Louisiana took his place for his own first Christmas in a new home.
