Zoey

 Well, it's been a while since the last blog. Mainly because we've been really busy with all kinds of stuff. From moving in the house to building two awesome new pc's. But also we've got a cat now!!

And for all you people interested in some kitty pictures I've selected a couple and put them up here.
Get ready to meet Zoey!

First of some pictures from the very early beginnings. The picture at the top is on the day that she arrived. The same day she went on our laps to sleep and even slept with us on the bed that night. It was the only night that happened so far!

And on the side is Zoey laying on the bed with Dan. She nodded off for a bit as well, but she was mainly just looking at what shenanigans I was doing with the camera.

 Then it really became summer in the Netherlands with temperatures of up to 35 degrees Celsius. And after Zoey had gotten all of her vaccinations she was allowed on the balcony and had a whole new space to investigate. This resulted in some chilling with us in the sunshine.

The sunshine also made it very easy for me to grow some catgrass. The tub below I grew in a weekend! And there's still some left of it. She absolutely loved and loves it!



Zoey likes to sit, play, sleep and live on the desks a lot. We use the pc's a lot and she loves being close to us. So when we put a hoodie or  something else on the desk this is a fantastic new toy. And she loves to hide.

And then she started to venture to places she shouldn't go, the counter, fridge and bookshelves. Also her old scratch-post started to go a tad bit wonky. So we got her a new one. It's only a tiny one, honest!

Well, okay it's not. But it's still only one corner of the house that's for the cat, the rest is ours. And she absolutely loves it. She sleeps and plays on it. And most importantly she uses this instead of our furniture to scratch.

She still loves to sit on our desks and the closer the better. While I'm writing this she's gone from sitting in front of Dan's monitor to sitting in front of mine and even laying between my keyboard and monitor. But she also loves to lay on my mouse-pad. So much even that I couldn't use it or my mouse any more. So I bought a bigger one. And as you can see, she still loves to lay on it and take it completely over.

She also loves hiding! In the most unconventional places if possible. So in the sofa is a good contender! We actually lost her the first time she did that. She was completely under the blanket that's on there.
