Tattle Tail

The Face of Trouble

This is the face of a trouble maker and I'm going to tattle on her! I've been doing so much diving lately, this blog is turning into my dive logbook, so time to relate some of the every day experiences around the house to change it up (plus I already know there will be more diving adventures this weekend)!

It's safe to say Sweetie Pie has adjusted to her new home. The shyness is almost gone. She is well aware of who feeds her and adjusts how well she likes you based on that. Though it's obvious that we don't compare to her original mom, she's now very comfortable. I would argue to the point that her name might not apply anymore. It could be that she is breaking out of her shell, or the other two cats are that much of a bad influence (I'm guessing this is the correct reason), but I caught her being naughty the other night. As a special treat, all the cats got to go out and play in the back yard for a short time. After some typical exploring around, Sweetie Pie decided the grass really is greener on the other side of the fence and she jumped the fence! She is hardly the most nimble cat, but she made quick work of of it once she made her mind up. I jumped the fence (not as gracefully) to follow her and she knew immediately that I had caught her because she jumped right back over.

The little stinker still has a sense of right and wrong and she knew that she got caught, so she headed right back to the house. I'm sure it won't be too much longer before the other two cats teach her there is no shame in getting caught and just ignore the humans like they do. Oh well, it was nice having a good cat for two years. So, Grandma, if you are watching or reading...your cat is naughty (which means she fits right in)!
