Our New Screened Room


Work started the Saturday before last on our new screened room. Frankie was very interested.

Unfortunately, they started late that day and could not finish before leaving on Sunday so we had to wait until yesterday afternoon before we could let the cats out there.

Frankie went out right away, but Floki was more cautious.

His fear didn’t last long.

They both spent the next fifteen minutes exploring.

The best part was when they settled in together.

Forgotten Videos


I noticed a couple of videos from last year that I intended to post but forgot about before I got around to uploading them.

The first was when Frankie met an armadillo. It was on the tenth of August last year.

The next one was taken on the fifth of October. I have several videos of this ginger cat who lived at the opposite end of the street behind us in our old neighborhood.

So far, we haven’t encountered outside cats where we live now.

Photo Friday: Frankie Surveys His Territory


Our association comprises six houses arranged in an L shape around a common vacant lot. Between each house and on each end is a six to eight-foot decorative wall. Frankie had jumped onto these walls about three times and attempted to jump a couple more times before I stopped him.

Here he is on the wall at the opposite end from our house. I think he has declared the entire area his.
