The Observer

This is one of Nellie’s favorite spots.  Sitting on a chair in front of an open window.  It seems that from this vantage point there is always something interesting to watch.  Maybe I should move my recliner?

Our kitty is increasingly more comfortable with us and around us.  She doesn’t spend much time with me, but she will approach me even when I’m standing.  Her comfort level with Sylvia is all together different.  As soon as Sylvia settles into her recliner, Nellie will appear and hop up on her lap and relaxes for a long visit.

If she hops on my lap, I give her a kitty treat.  She devours the treat and then leaves me.

About Chuck

I am retired after a career in electronics and in publishing. Today, my wife of 50+ years, Sylvia, and I live in a house on a hill beside a dirt road in rural west Michigan. We enjoy living in this country environment where livestock and wild life out number the human population.

  1. You gotta act like you don’t care. That might work.

    My Grace likes me and only me. She will still swipe at the kids when they go to pet her. She walks away from Joe. I think they get attached to one person most times and I’m not sure if I’m the lucky one or not.

    • Thanks for the expert advice. I don’t “push it” with Nellie. I may call to her, but she comes and goes by her own will. It helps that I feed her twice a day. And she is more comfortable around me all the time.

      Sylvia for the most part feels as you do about being kitty’s chosen one. I don’t mind. At least kitty doesn’t run and hide when I come around. I can live with that. 😀

  2. This is a picture that needs to be on a calendar – say, for the month of June.

  3. It is a nice view!

    Isn’t it funny how some cats take to a person but not others. But Nellie seems to be making progress with you. 🙂

    • Yes, she is making progress with me. I like that. I human kind much different when it comes to preferring the company of one over another?

  4. Chuck, I am in Charlotte, MI for part of this week. If I knew your address, maybe I could come over one day.
