Pals 3 shows my two boys together–Scooby the ginger American shorthair tabby, and Zeke the Maine Coon. Scooby was brought home from the shelter so Zeke could have a playmate to rough-house with. They are both the same age. The plan worked well, and they like to spend time together doing the same things.
In Deer Scooby, Scooby is in the catio alerting me to the fact there are two deer sitting down outside. Scooby does not like deer at all. Once he has seen them he does not eat or sleep but only runs around the house from window to window looking for them in an excited state. It takes him and me 24 hours to get over it. If I see them before he does, I go out and run them off.
Opie and Zeke are my Love Christine’s Calendar Cat picks for August 2019. The calendar was a present made by Christine and Spike, and sent late last year for use this year. Christine has been sending calendars to me from Scotland for many years now. I hope she never stops making them for me. 💕
Happy 6th WordPress “Feline Cafe” Blogversary! Today we will show some highlights from the past!
Opie has been very good about walking about in the garden with supervision. She does not go far from the door, and usually stays outside only long enough to eat some grass. Today Scooby is out as well. Normally she only goes out by herself, and Scooby only goes out by himself. It is easier to handle them that way. Today is an experiment. Zeke never goes outside. He is afraid to go outside.
Zeke’s Birthday Hangover: Zeke and Scooby in the lower bunk in the bunkhouse. Scooby says “Wake up”! Zeke says: “Oh my head is still spinning!”
I cannot believe the little fluff ball is an adult! He never seemed to mature from a kitten mentally, as you can probably tell from the photos of him that are published here. He was born of two feral Maine Coons. He took up residence in a flower pot on a neighbour’s front porch. His original name was “Mop”. They did not want him. I did not want a sixth cat either at the time, but I took him anyway. He was so cute and small! “I won’t take up much room,” he said. “I don’t eat much!”
He won me over. I am glad I took him in. Instead of one of six–the bottom of the barrel, he is now one of three. He is afraid to go outside. He is afraid he won’t be able to get back in, I think. In ten years he has only been outside to go to the vet! When I began blogging about ten years ago, he was my blog star, and my personal “avatar” or “gravatar”, which he has remained to this day. Happy Birthday Zeke (10 years)! May you have many more! ❤️️❤️️❤️️
Zeke is my Love Christine’s Calendar Cat pick for July 2019. The calendar was a present made by Christine and Spike, and sent late last year for use this year. Zeke is an internet favourite. Christine has been sending calendars to me for many years now. I hope she never stops making them for me. 😻😻😻
