Lanie's Log - What is the Big Deal?

 It has been 128 days since my captivity began.

The wardens are doing less picking me up to hold me and more touching me when I am in my tree.

Lady Warden also always wants to take pictures of me and I do not like the camera in my face. She did snap this one to try and show everyone the pretty orange in my very, very soft fur.


Being told I am pretty does not make up for being a prisoner who has to pose.

Now on to what is the big deal. 

My wardens are over the moon that I have started to play when they aren't around. Most importantly for them, I have started to play with a little foam green ball. They call it my Precious. Apparently Zaphod, who was a dog and I am sure I saw him around when I was feral, loved a ball too. It was his Precious, so now I have one as well.  I don't see what the big deal is that I have found something to help me pass my time here. One can only sleep like 19 hours a day. 

I have been known to take it into the windowsill with me and I actually hid it in my food bowl in the windowsill (it was up there to keep Tigris and Styx out of my food).

I don't see what the big deal is, but the wardens are happy.

  2. How nice that you now have a favorite toy, Lanie. You are doing so well and really seem to be warming up to life indoors.

  3. Awww, Precious lives again - Zaphod could have taught you lots about his Precious.

  4. Many feral cats have to be taught how to play, as you don’t play when you are in survival mode on the streets. Playing means you are doing well.

    Oh yes... and I sneakily saw you entertaining the pawsibility of play with Styx, too... at least you weren't ignoring him... Lanie, like the snow in spring, you will melt because the heat of Love is way too warm... hugs and whiskeries, YAM-aunty xxx
