Rue has settled in with us this week! We have been having a great time cuddling and playing and talking. Rue likes to talk. In fact, she will be the first to tell you that she misses her mom and dad. Here's a recap of her first week with us!
First day:
Saying "hi" from under the bed. This may have been while Alan was ***allegedly*** pulling himself together in the parking lot. She spent a lot of time under the bed on her first day. It was probably a good place for Rue to sort things out. And nap. Rue likes naps.
Rue has entertained us with all the different ways she finds to get comfy. Here's a peek at the various cat yoga poses that have happened in our apartment this week:
The classic cat boat pose
The smell your toes-ayana
The sneeze salutations
The bath in a box pose
The wait I didn't realize you were taking the picture already pose
The "Ooh! Me! Pick me!" pose
We found some cat nip in Rue's toy bag. One whiff and she was knocked out for ten minutes. We won't be letting her form a habit.
Ten minutes later...
"Have you ever just like, really laid down and let the carpet feel you, man?"
As you may have been able to deduce from some of the yoga poses, Rue has a box beside two big windows. She likes to sit in it and make biscuits on her blanket while soaking up the sunshine. There are birds to watch, too. Rue likes watching birds.
Occasionally if the blinds are closed, we'll improvise and make a cat fort.
It smells like marshmallows and ambush in there.
Rue has taught us how to play with some ribbon attached to a fishing rod. It's her favorite. When we get home from work, she'll sit beside its hiding place and ask for someone to play with her. We usually aren't hard to convince.
