So much has gone on in the neighbourhood since Jesse James and I last blogged...Mom and Dad just cut our nails so it's easier to use the keyboard right now....
So for those of you who don't know me I'm Thomas...aka....Baby Thomas...I'm Jesse's little brother. We take turns blogging...So last month a lovely fluffy white and grey girl showed up on our street prancing around looking all lovely and happy....little did we know that she was actually a stray kitty who had shown up on our street and was living on the roof of a carport amongest some trees. A neighbour told us she was a stray so Mom headed right over to the carport, called the little girl who jumped in Mom's arms and came home with her. Mom made her a bed out front of the house under cover and gave her food and water.....Wow....and I thought I was a pig at dinnertime....you should have seen this little lady eat. It was like she was rehearsing for a hot dog eating contest.
Ads were put on the internet and the search began for her owner....that person was never found but a nice young woman on the street adopted her so her other kitten would have a playmate....thank goodness for nice people. Little Orphan Annie as we called her was taken to the vet and pronounced in good shape. She had been spayed too so at some point someone cared enough to do that for her...Her new name is Callie and she now lives happily ever after with a new family.....She was making a habit of coming to our sliding glass door on our sundeck and taunting Jesse and I with wicked swiping movements and hissing....for such a dainty little thing she had a big attitude....that's what living on the street will do to ya! So it was a happy ending.....
A couple weeks ago we got back from a week of camping in our travel trailer...as usual it was an adventure.
I'm afraid I've become quite obessed with eating grass....I may need rehab.....on my leash infused walks with Dad at the lake front campsite I managed to eat a long stiff piece of grass that got caught in my throat....It was scary. Dad knew something was wrong when I headed back to the travel trailer on my own.....that never happens. Of course it was a Sunday and we were 20 kms in the woods on a logging road as Mom was getting ready to rush me to Campbell River to find a vet as they couldn't see the grass in my throat or get it out by hand.Lucky for me I had a hairball and the grass came up too....there was much rejoicing!!!! Jesse was disappointed this year as no little mice came into the trailer at night for him to catch....he looks forward to that all year. It gave him far more time to launch himself on and off Mom and Dad while they were sleeping. This year he even added a new twist....stepping on their faces like they were sidewalks...good times!
We got to do something new this trip and that was go to the ocean....our noses were working overtime. What a place. We loved our walks by the beach, keeping our eye on the sky as we had a family of bald eagles nearby. What yummy little appies we'd make eh.....We met up with other friends on this trip and they had dogs.
Jesse was super duper brave and got within a foot of something they called a "rotty".....he soon discovered that rotty's jump up and down and make alot of noise when kitties get close to them.....I think I heard him screaming something like "BAD IDEA....BAD IDEA!!!!!" Anyway, camping was fun and we slept for two days when we got home.....Have a happy and safe summer everyone...
