pinkon is a cat that follows us all around
and because she is not a (good) jumper
we try to take routes sometimes where she has no other choice but to jump
this way we encourage her not to be afraid and work on her self-confidence
slowly, slowly her jumps are improving :-p
but, the big jump to the roof is still a bit too much for her, both mentally and physically
also, we don't encourage her in this case, so zumo can have the roof for himself
at least for a while...
this picture shows a part of pinkon's process of understanding that she cannot go on the roof
poor thing...
one day we couldn't find pinkon
and then we saw her little nose peeping out of one of the holes in the (unused) feedingtrough
it looked as though she was taking a bath
she was so relaxed :-)
since then we call that place pinkon's dry bath
*found me some old pictures i still wanted to upload*
this is one of the first times
that pinkon and zumo were freely together in the same room
zumo immediately went for the kitty food
pinkon was still so small
and she was so impressed by the big black cat (by the entire world, basically)
she stood there and could only watch
and learn
she's a pro now in stealing zumo's food
haha!
we are always happy to see zumo inviting himself to some playtime
he found the paper ball pinkon was playing with earlier
zumo rather quickly realized that the paper ball was hers
so his date with the toy did not last long :-D
when zumo walked up to me, i saw what a thick winter coat he actually had
but spring was so coming in fast, we knew he'd not be needing it too long anymore
love it how outdoor cats change by the season
