One of our favourite things lately is going to the park with the kitties. We’re trying to take advantage of the limited amount of sunny and warm days before fall hits.
And yes, Charlie did venture out of his carrier and onto the blanket a few times…only to be hissed back into place by Jonesy. She was not so much upset at being out at the park, but rather, still feeling rather threatened by Charlie’s presence. All he wanted was to do was go up to Jonesy and make friends.
But she wasn’t having any of that.
Not a happy camper.
Don’t worry – her bark is worse than her bite. Jonesy did not bolt, bite or scratched her humans or Charlie. She’s just a little diva, who’s not used to sharing the spotlight. She showed her displeasure a couple of times by hissing and then something remarkably funny happened when we reassured her. She didn’t know quite what to do with herself.
Like the moment a kid stops having a tantrum…
…to take in her surroundings…
…and frozen, wonders what she should do next?
These 3 pictures may look identical, but look closely and you’ll see that it’s not. This is me taking 3 pictures of Jonesy after her hissy fit, one right after the other. The little diva held nearly the same pose for each, looking like a wide-eyed child, dumbstruck, after a tantrum or waking up to new surroundings. And cats are not known to hold a pose, when faced with a camera.
Sean and I couldn’t stop laughing at her “my bid for attention has been met, so what now?” look. It was like she forgot why she was mad in the first place.
Oh Jonesy, we just want you and Charlie to be the best of buddies. For how could you not like Charlie? He’s the sweetest, most affectionate and lovable kitty in the world. And he wants to be your pal.
