Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for November 26, 2016

learning to read “cat”

We have been adopted by a stray Maine Coon cat. In all my years of having cats, this one has the most “cattitude” of them all. I don’t get NO respect.

Does Ludwig have a first name? Since Arlo is calling him Loody could it be Quaa? Cats can have a calming effect.

WHO is Loody? And, where is Luddy?

Loody is short for Ludwig. The German pronunciation of it is “lood-vigg” with the ‘oo’ rhyming with the word mood. It’s hard to write this stuff with the doggone auto correct!

Yes

It’s a last name he lacks.

His father abandoned his mother to go tom-catting around.

The question should be “Does Arlo and Ludwig have a last name”?

We call cat treats Kitty Crack. Shake the package and our three all come running. If you’re too slow getting the treats out of the bag, the little one will try to try to rip the bag from your hands.

Bunnies are the same way with treats. However ours do tricks for them! Go in a circle, stand up tall, get on a box…and he noses the ground to show just where he’d love his treat out. We’ve had five bunnies and they each had individual ways of begging for treats. What I love is I can hold out the treat bowl and say, Do you want to pick your own?" And they seriously look in, then choose one, and sit and eat it, and are happy with their choice!

Treat put….not out…sorry,

…jilectan, it’s probably an in-bread cat…

When in Vancouver, we had a Canadian Gray, similar, but charcoal in colour.
