Not her tail

We’ve been working with Missy the dog for a long time on letting people touch her tail without her growling. Apparently we did our work well. Here is a video of Thor the kitten playing with Missy‘s tail, and she doesn’t even care.

I have also decided to promote barbershop as the background music to my shorts, because everyone needs to hear a chord ring.

Earing

Izzy and Thor earing each other

Thor the kitten took a toy mouse up on the bed to play, and Izzy the cat heard the commotion and jumped up to investigate. They both then had to lay down and pretend the other didn’t exist, but I can see them earing each other. No, not earring, Spellcheck, ear-ing, verb, to point ears at another, not admitting existence, but keeping under audio observation. Very cat behavior. Should be a word.

He is going to be huge

Thor the kitten is about four and a half months old. Here he is stretched out on a large dog bed, which he has appropriated.

I can no longer hold him with one arm. I’ve been loosening his collar a couple times a week, so I think he is currently in growth spurt. It will be interesting to see when and where the growth stops.
