Frankie and Frankie, Attorneys at Paw

27 Replies

I was originally going to title this, “Frankie and Frankie ” but then I thought it sounded like a law firm. I don’t know about the rest of the world, but in the Tampa Bay area lawyers love to hear their last name, so they include it twice in the name of their law firm. We have Morgan & Morgan, Farah & Farah, Catana & Catana and I’m just getting started but that is not the topic of this story.

During our walk yesterday, my Frankie encountered our neighbor’s Frankie under the bushes. She hissed and backed away. What did my Frankie do? He rolled over on his back, of course.

You can’t see the other Frankie, but she is there in the shadows

Earlier that day I saw the girl Frankie and called her name. She actually came to me, which was a shocker. She let me pet her head a couple of times then walked away.

Later that afternoon, after Frankie’s walk, I saw her again when I took the trash out. She didn’t come to me that time, but she did let me go to her. She almost let me pet her but backed away at the last second.

I think she’s warming up to me.

New Gifts for Our Cats

20 Replies

We got a box last week from my wife’s son and his fiancée. It contained cat treats and a couple of toys for our boys. The first wasn’t really a toy, but a cat scratcher.

It needed to be assembled but it was relatively easy to put together.

Both Frankie and Floki have been scratching on this new scratcher, although never when I was ready with a camera. I will say that so far they’ve only scratched on the flat part near the floor. Perhaps I should turn it over, so the long end is on the floor, or flip it, so the long end is at a 45-degree angle. It’s nice that I have options.

The other gift was a 4-way cat tunnel.

I have seen both cats playing in it, but Floki especially likes it.

Both items have been out for about a week with only a very slight decrease in interest.
