i was out at 7:15 this morning for an 8 am cat care shift . . leaving myself time to stop by the cafe to say hi to chanda and pick up a tumeric latte.
they had opened at 7 and were quite busy.
it's nice early in the morning as the cats have just eaten and are more active than in the afternoon.
i could have let ridley snoop around in the cabinet longer, but instead closed the door on him and he did not like that.
he's very sensitive and a little skittish (he was annoyed at stringbean, another cat in the next room who was bouncing around by the door).
they all like to get some treats . .
nala maintains her queenly status by not allowing darla or ridley to step up onto her perch.
dear ridley is a bit of a curmudgeon.
tuxedo cat caza did not make an appearance this morning and stayed hidden in his favorite cubby hole.
morgan has been spending the week with sweet jasper.
Chanda's café does look crowded! And those cats! They all look like they mean business. Is the facility big?
ReplyDeleteFor NYC standards, yes, it's a good size.
DeleteThis post inspired me to dig out my TS Eliot Practical Cats book - aren’t cats just a delight

Ridley's face certainly matches his temperament 😂. Is the cat place within walking distance? So lovely to see Chanda on the blog, had she hurt her arm?
ReplyDeleteYes, I walk there . . I think it's a style thing.
DeleteIsn't Ridley cute! and funny.
DeleteCats really are a gift , aren’t they . Although my darling boy (Milo)caused me enormous stress this Sunday morning . I did not sleep well and came down for a cup of something soothing - he was asleep on the sofa but asked very nicely for breakfast, and then some company outside. Whilst I was contemplating a return to bed ( it was not quite 6am) a fox ran past me in the garden, swiftly followed
ReplyDeleteby a furious Milo. Milo chased the fox into the greenhouse and out again, and round the garden until
the fox leapt into the church grounds that border our cottage. I told Milo I do not approve of fox hunting ( regardless of what species is doing the hunting),
And checked him for injuries. He then slept on my lap as his adrenaline crashed. I hope the fox is ok.
Have a lovely Sunday

A bit of a tumultuous morning! I'm glad he didn't get the fox. We love our cats but they don't always do things we like! Your place sounds very pretty :)
