Zoomies

 Aslan is settling down at my house. Last night he had a case of the zoomies at bedtime. Then he came to bed and wanted to get under the doonah. Perhaps he was being chased by a mouse through the house!

The "pregnant mum" still doesn't have a name. And she still only has one kitten even though she is still rather plump. They are a devoted couple and deserve nice names.

Roxy's little tabby died last week so she only has two gingers and the smaller champagne left. I was going to check their sexes today so that we could assign Joy's suggested names:

for boys: Rafael, Rascal, Rocky, Rufus

for girls: Rowena, Raven, Rosie, Ruby

But I didn't get around to it. I got distracted by trying to tidy up the store room. ("Tidy up" is not the appropriate term. . . . more like "clear a bit of space")

Rain hasn't had any kittens yet. Neither has Mouse.

But they add to the lovely collection of gingerish cats we currently house. And we can use some of Joys' names for their kittens.

Renny and Blossom's "brother" Darley died overnight. He was not eating last week so something was very wrong. I wonder if Renny and Blossom knew and that is why they excluded him.

Ollie is doing well since his little sister, Daisy died last week. He is more confident and eats more enthusiastically.

And this afternoon I gave the blind cat in Boarding a good brush which he enjoyed. Now that he is clean I can see that he has ginger fur on his front feet. So perhaps he is a tortie. Male torties are very, very rare.
