Humphey’s day

Hi – it’s a beautiful Sunday sunny morning though my internal clock is a bit out this morning.

We’ve already had a small skirmish on the doorstep between Humphrey and one of the intruders.  I think the activity is dying down… a little!  Though we never know when one of the outside cats is going to turn up…

Last night as we were watching TV I glanced through the living room window to see these two little ears rise up followed by a cheeky face!  Yesterday I had to scram one cat by remote control shouting through my bedroom window.

I’ve been watching Zoo Days on channel 5 at 6.30.  On Friday the little lion cub left to go to a new home in Besancon in France.  It was so funny watching the same behaviour as Humphrey shows.  A rather larger scale though.

I felt so sorry for the keeper who’d hand reared the cub.  He must have had to steel himself when he said goodbye.  My friend who had her cat put to sleep last month is still in pieces about it.  Since she lives alone, I guess that going home is more difficult now without that welcome. 

Ah well – didn’t mean to be gloomy but they get under our skin and into our hearts don’t they these cats.
