295/365 At It Again

See. Exhibit A. Look at that wayward paw. Human garbage can and feline garbage can. Match made in heaven. Or not.

Her favourite (and my least favourite) is where she pushes her head against the other child’s head like she is a goat. She’s also prone to raspberry blowing, foot stamping, pushing and general growling. The squish ball gets most [...]

Today’s the day. I’ll be taking my Googy Bear off for her first day at the new school. The start days are staggered so she’ll only be going one day this week and then doing Monday to Wednesday next week. I’m glad. It makes it less traumatic for both of us I think. I’m dreading [...]

These two are equally keen on breakfast. Only problem is that Floyd is very keen on Piper’s breaksfast and has a tendency to bat her head with his paws. I’m not quite sure what he hopes to gain by this. Perhaps he thinks that she will be intimidated by his soft paw pads and offer [...]
