Pia is alert after hearing Mom talk about getting out the fur clippers. Wouldn’t you be?

Quint’s mulling over Dad’s recent work computer re-configuration. Meanwhile, Mom was having an OCD fit over the wire/cord mess.

Outside our kitchen window, we have a morning visitor to one of our flower pots. Bet she’s just as thankful for returning perennial flowers as we are!

Over the years, we’ve added a photo here and there of elusive Pierre, who lives in a fine house up the street. Imagine, if you may, Mom’s utter surprise when, after some 5 or 6 years, Pierre finally deemed her worthy and approached looking for some pets.

An astounded Mom reports Pierre is soooo soft and mostly mat-free. He likes some brushies, dislikes dried chicken treats and temptingly, shows his belly often.

Mom knows better than to pet the belly, especially a new friend belly. Overall, Mom is over the moon. This was a long challenge. While she hoped she’d make a new friend of Rusty or that new shortfur black cat, she’s completely ecstatic over finally winning Pierre’s trust. Victory!

Lastly, after our earlier attempt at filling two boxes with cats on the island failed, now both Viola and Tessa think to “share” the space. Yeah, right . . . Ought to be an interesting weekend.

Hope your weekend is a good one!

    Isn’t it interesting how some cats seem to have a “switch” the flips once they determine you’re worthy? Lucy is exactly like that. And we’ll await updates on the box situation. . .

  3. It’s always gratifying to have made a new/old friend!
    Trust me, I try to engage every cat that I meet, even if they are hiding in the bushes. One never knows, and the heart has eternal hope.
    P.S. Someone has stopped complaining about wires strewn about everywhere; The Hubby takes no notice, and unless someone yanks every stinking one of them out of the wall, across the floor, and hanging from….things…it’s a losing battle.

    Pierre is such a sweetie and y’all look really cute today!

  5. Pierre is such a sweetheart. It looks like it will be a fun weekend with the island game. We too are like your mom with the OCD with the power cords. Everything has to be in order. Thanks for the wonderful share. Have a fantastic rest of your day.
