when it is not raining outside and your cat comes home like this that means there was some trouble! "poor, poor zumo", we said, "you surely did not voluntarily take a dive into the creek!" we checked for injuries, but he was just fine :-) he must have been having another argument with one of the neighbour's cats did he lose the fight? we did not really care we were just happy that he came home all wet and cold, but in one piece! we wiped him as dry as possible and guided him to his nest close to the stove there, he slept like a log untill he was ready to go on his next adventure crazy old zumo :-) ❤️

since we started putting the paper ball in a shoe from time to time pinkon would regularly check them just in case...

if you imagine the handle zumo makes a perfect teapot or maybe a kettle, if you'd like i've been told that when a cat sits like this it is called 'loaf' but in my opinion a loaf is longer and zumo really squeezes himself into a ball, round, circle-ish so I see teapot :-D

*found me some old pictures i still wanted to upload* sometimes pinkon would focus a little too much on playing with grandpa zumo to a point where zumo sometimes did not like it anymore so, to distract pinkon, we'd put her next to the aquarium there, she'd instantly forget about the entire world :-D pinkon loved the fishtank so much she'd walk around and around and around the aquarium, trying to figure out how to get one of these squiggling colorful things :-) she never caught one :-)
