#Sunday selfie: update on our time apart

It has now been about 3 weeks since human mum and dad have been apart. Luckily, we’ve been together and human mum has been giving us extra lots of cuddles and snuggles.

Unfortunately, it also means that photos have been harder to take. The light isn’t as good in human mum’s new house and dad is the one who loves to be a PAWparazzi.

From a human perspective it’s interesting to watch the cats interact with each other as they seem much kinder to each other, often stopping to sniff each other and groom each other. They also have abandoned some of the habits they had developed back home (at Sydney). Frosty used to love to come in and sit on the bed in the morning and get pats and cuddles from dad. Now, she doesn’t like to sit on the bed at all, even when the bed is warm and snuggles are free for all.

Shadow loves it when mum and dad talk on the phone. Mum usually puts dad on speaker phone so she can move around the house, make dinner and have her hands free for extra ear scratches. Shadow has started to love this and will come up to the phone and meow loudly at it when dad is talking. She clearly recognises his voice and she will even rub her face and head on the phone.

Thank you to all the lovely feline friends that suggested we use smelly laundry to help them transition as that made the move so much easier! Even now, we still use the smelly laundry which they love to sit on and rub on.

Finnigan the foster kitten

On the plus side, this weekend mum is going home to Sydney. There is a new foster kitten in the house so even though it is only a weekend trip back home, hopefully Shadow and Frosty will be okay with Finnigan – the new foster. He is just the cheekiest, fluffiest and cutest little bundle of joy.
