Christmas Day, 2011.
There is really nothing better than an empty box. At the same time, there is nothing better than a box with cat toys in it. So, you see the problem…
Ideal solution is a large box with many cat toys, which is then emptied onto the floor, creating a lovely empty box to play and sleep in. That was the scenario this past Christmas. “A good time was had by all!”
Godfrey and his brothers are in the early stages of welcoming a new kitten into the house. His name is Stedam Capt. McTavish of MacDuff — a spectacular silver tabby American Shorthair who is full of mischief!
It’s funny. You always know that kittens are full of non-stop energy, but somehow you forget until a new one arrives! There are times when all of us wish McTavish would just settle down and take a nap, but he is just too eager to explore, play with toys and generally annoy his big brothers.
So far it seems that he and Godfrey are getting along swimmingly, while McTavish loves to wrestle with Ritzy, our silver Maine Coon. It’s “all in good fun,” and Ritzy is “dealing,” but we can read his mind; “Please make this stop!”
