Yep, a year ago, mom decided to keep the big orange guy and make him a permanent member of the crew.
He has turned into quite the big cat, but is still pretty jumpy. Mom swears that someday she is going to pet him and he is GOING to like it. :) Right now, mom can get within about 3 feet. And the other day she was putting groceries away in the kitchen and she turned around and he was flopped over on the floor on his back. First time she has seen him lay like that. Of course, he moved before she could get the camera.
He was making noise the other day in the dining room and mom got out the video camera. He was stalking one of mom's hair ties (which she picked up when he walked away - don't want anybody eating them).
Oh, and it is mom's birthday too....guess we should wish her happy birthday!!
no, I am not angry. why do you ask?

Happy Gotcha Day Junior!
ReplyDeleteThank you for taking him in and making him part of the family. He'll eventually let you pet him. It took me SIX years to finally be able to pet Katie Lou. She still sometimes runs if I get near her but if she comes to me, I can pet her and even pick her up and hold her.
Happy Gotcha Day, Junior! We are really glad you were gotcha'd into such a wonderful and loving home.
ReplyDeleteAnd Happy Birthday, Mom Jeanne! Hope you have a terrific day and year. :)
I don't suppose it was a Tuesday when he flopped on his back. Wouldn't that be funny? If he was volunteering for pictures of his tummy on a Tuesday?
ReplyDeleteHappy Gotcha Day, Junior. And Happy Birthday, Junior's mom.
ReplyDeleteHope this is a great day for both of you.
Happy Gotcha Day, Junior - from one jumpy big orange guy to another!
