i had a scary day today. i was put into a box…taken in the car..to the vet, where they held me down and gave me shots and cleaned my teeth. the vet was very nice to me and said i was pretty and petted my head…but the whole thing was scary. there were dogs barking and cats meowing. i was so happy to come back home…i inspected the entire house to be sure nothing had changed while i was gone…and julie petted me a lot, hugged me, combed me…im happy to be home.
please go to the gallery page for today’s update.
i think leroo calls me Rao-Rao. she always talks to me..but when she calls me from another room she always says Rao-Rao. maybe thats what i sound like when i call her leroo! you never know. i know she knows some english. ‘tuna’ for sure. and she knows ‘you ready for breakfast’ is the cue to get up in the morning. so we definately communicate verbally…and i think she calls me Rao-Rao.
usually i sleep in for a while after julie wakes up. today i awoke ready to play…i cuddled for a few minutes and then jumped out of bed and sat on the floor meowing for julie to get up too. she took a little coaxing…but when she got up we chased the crumpled paper all over the house…had water from the bathtub faucet…had a salmon treat..and then got to work updating my website.
i got new food this weekend. i really like it. dry cat food by Wellness. i caught a couple flies this weekend that flew in the window. i saw birdy from the bedroom window…she comes to visit me a lot. i like her but i think she seems like a tough kitty. i got to have tuna. and…i felt extra cuddly all weekend…
I climbed the open window slats today in the bedroom and got in a little trouble. I managed to pull a few of the windows out and slide out and got myself wedged between the window and the screen on it. I was stuck in there! But Julie heard me and came to my rescue. She struggled a bit to figure how to get me out…some glass broke a little…and then she made me hide in the closet while she vacuumed and fixed the window. It was an adventure…I wonder if Birdy saw me.
yesterday was exciting. i got to see my neighbor cat Birdy again. she came to visit me at my bedroom window. i showed her how i can climb the window slats, how big i am when i arch my back, how loved i am when julie came to look with me, and Birdy was impressed. then i had tuna for lunch. i love tuna. i had the tuna juice and the meat…and then threw it all up on the bedroom floor. i guess i shouldnt have eaten my usual dry food as well. over stuffed myself. it was just so good. THEN at night we had visitors…i caught a moth and a cricket…then this big bug cam in…the kind julie screams at…a cockroach! she wouldnt let me get near it though. they must be dangerous. i had to go hide in the closet while julie vacuumed it up…the noise is scary. then i was all pepped up from the day’s events and went running around the house growling…im fierce!
I’m Julie’s kitty Leroo. I live in Laguna Beach and spend my time doing all sorts of stuff….like playing with my fish toy or crumpled paper, and i love playing in shopping bags..thats exciting. When this guy named Don comes over I get into the shopping bag and he carries me to another part of the house.
Often I run fast around the house growling…Julie will hide behind a doorway and I jump out at her to scare her. Sometimes i get up on the back of the couch and when she runs by I do my best swan dive at her and she laughs. Its fun.
I also spend some good time chilling….looking out the window at the birds..and the neighbor kitties….my friend Birdy next door likes to growl and hiss at me when I arch my back in the window by my bed and show her how big I am.
And when its nap time, lately since its warm i like to sleep at the foot of the bed…its cool there. I dont get a lot of sleep though since Julie comes and pets me all the time.
Meow.
Leroo had a bath yesterday. Its been a long time since she’s had one and I thought it was a good idea to help her along with the recent shedding…and she is soooo silky…not that she really gets dirty living inside. But she seemed to like the bath….only freaks out when i turn on the faucet…so this time I set it up with a pitcher of water so i could rinse her without turning it on.
