Post 742: new territory to explore…

There are many tempting places for kitties to explore in this apartment but I’ve never seen the boys show curiosity about a little desk by the back door…until today!!

Let me say there were lots of interesting diversions for kitties today because I haven’t completely put away the groceries I bought this morning. Andy was checking that out when he noticed his brother Dougy hop on a box next to the little desk.

Dougy is certain he can open this drawer. He’s seen Andy handle similar challenges.

“Whatcha doin’, Dougy?”
Andy is interested now.

Andy isn’t sure if he wants to get involved or not.
“C’mon, Andy! You’re the one that knows how to open drawers!” says Dougy.

Andy thinks about it. He didn’t get his kitty treats yet for being a good boy so he doesn’t want to jeopardize that, now, does he?!

“Rats!”
Since Andy won’t play along with him, Dougy gives up on the drawer.
“I’m not interested in what’s in there anyway.”

Then there was the mysterious visitor to the door. He knocked, but left in a South Dakota-plated car before Doug (the human one) could get to the door. Probably frightened away by the scary little black tigers staring back through the screen door. MEOW!

Post 536: Where’s Andy?

Things are quiet around the house, unlike earlier when the boys were chasing each other north and south. Too quiet. I see Dougy on the back door cat lounger.

“Any idea where your brother is, Dougy?” No response. Dougy’s dozing, I guess. His eyes are closed anyway.

“Seriously, have you seen Andy?” I ask Dougy. Well, eyes a bit more open, but Dougy’s taking his time shaking off that spell the sun has on him.

I piqued his curiosity. He’s a cat, you know, and that’s his kryptonite. Curiosity. Now he wonders where Andy is, and trots off to try to find him!

Clearly not at the fountain. Hmm.

A quick look into the guest bedroom, Dougy’s favorite “hidey spot”.

Nope. No Andy. Give him a second or two, and there will be no Dougy, either, and both boys will be asleep under one or the other beds. So much for a dramatic kitty story for today’s post, unless you get excited watching cats under beds snoozing. Keep on moving. Nothing to see here! (Of course, Andy sometimes snores in his sleep. Or purrs.)
