Sorry Cleo, You Have to Stay Home

We are on the road again (currently in Georgia). Cleo always seems to want to go along.

Sorry Fervor,...

...you can't come out now because Cleo is out.

Monkey See, Monkey Do

Fervor, a male cat about the same age as Arnold, used to regularly jump up on top of the curio cabinet. He has not done this for some time now. Tonight, for whatever reason, he jumped on top of the curio cabinet. Within minutes, Arnold was ready to repeat Fervor's feat. First he got on the back of Peggy's chair, bobbed and weaved to ascertain the possibilities, then he went to the top of the crow's nest structure near the window, then to the chair and finally back to the crow's nest. He checked the direction of the wind, adjusted his azimuth and elevation, bobbed and weaved judging his abilities and made a successful jump. The photo shows him reveling in his glory.

Arnold Bags a Bag

Simple cat toys are best. Notice Cleo zooming by in the upper right corner sparking Peggy's laugh.
