A very good picture of adventures with a kitten.

We keep getting in trouble. Elder cat Jake never gets into much of anything. He
considers most cat food and all human food beneath his exquisite palate. So we have
become complacent. Enter Rosie. For a very well bred tiny Siamese kitten, her
appetite is without limit. If it smells interesting and stays relatively still she
will try to eat it. Thank God she also seems to have a cast iron stomach.

We have to put her in her room to have a meal in peace or to feed the dog.

She is however all cat. Every plant in the house sports shredded leaves. With the
exception of the cat grass I bought and sprouted in hopes of keeping her away from
them.

Why must it stay still? Mice don't!

LOL! This is what happens when cats get opposable thumbs (almost).

Until a mouse stops moving altogether it is still a plaything, and not food
