First Night in a Big House
My first night at home was kind of weird. The house was much larger than my cage at the adoption center. I roamed for a while and found my way between the dishwasher and the wall; this was soon closed so that I could no longer enter. When it was time for bed, my new mommy carried me to bed, placed me in a smaller bed on the big bed, and held me all night long. I cried, which drove my new daddy crazy. I wasn't accustomed to sleeping without my litter mates. During the night, my mommy carried me to my litter box & waited on me while I took care of business, then carried me back to bed. Getting used to this would be easy!
When morning came, my parents locked me in a stairwell so that I couldn't roam the house while they were at work. It was bigger than the cage, but I was all alone. Now, I was thinking, "Maybe this isn't going to work." I cried & cried, which made my mommy cry. Well, if she was crying, what was she going to do about it? She left & came back with a ticking clock, as if this was going to keep me company! Hmmmmmpph?!?!
Last night, Mommy took me to visit with my friends. We had a ball. Thomas & Floyd are so much fun. I'm catching up to them in size, which is very cool. My friend Mary was at their house so I got to play with her, too. It was a fun evening! Mom owed me since she spent our Saturday away from the house studying for some test she's preparing for. Catch ya' later! --AJ the Kitty Boy
