More on the Cats
We took the tuxedo cat to the vet today for his shots. His main complaint of the day wasn’t the vet or the shots, but the ride in the car. Tuxedo cat HATES riding in the car. We think his favorite color is Yellow, because that is what he keeps calling out as we go on down the road. “Yeellooow, Yelllowwww, Yellloooooww…” He also says “Mama” just before he throws up.
The new cat and the tuxedo cat are getting along famously now. They are quite a pair, and the new kitty has much to learn about being a proper house cat from the older and much wiser tuxedo cat. Example: Tuxedo cat has transformed grooming into an art form. He is perfect, and I seriously doubt there is any other cat that can out groom the tuxedo. He goes about his grooming in a very deliberate and dignified fashion, starting always with the paws, then the face, then the paws again and so on…. He never falls or rolls accidentally. He sets every hair in its exact place. New cat, on the other hand, looks like a complete clown when it comes to grooming himself. He rushes and is clumsy. Everything to him is a game, and that includes grooming. When he is done with his bath, he leaves his hair wet with spit and sticking out randomly in any which direction. He is only seven months old though, and barely out of kittendom. Tuxedo cat will surely teach him the secrets of this art form, as well as many others.
