LOL, OMG Czari has zoomies!

I'm sitting here and suddenly I hear one of the gang zooming around behind me and up and down the stairs. At first I figured it was either Maks or Kiska, since I had Vlad and Oksana in my sights. Then I caught Maks out of the corner of my eye sitting, and saw Kiska on the counter in the kitchen. I turned and saw Czari zooming and playing with a black squirrel toy!

LOL, everything she does, is amazing to me. It's like almost natural for the others, but not her. I feel like she's still learning how to be a house cat, so whenever she does stuff like this, it's fun to watch! Now she even steals Vlad's spot on the pillow that's on top of the nightstand if he's too slow coming upstairs. She's counter surfing more and more and she's even started clawing at the couch. The latter she learned from Vlad and Oksana. That isn't fun to watch.

The furniture, I agree, that part isn't fun. But everything else is marvelous to see. Love it when they steal each other's sleeping spots. Pecking order is being decided in the AG household!! And you are right, she is the Queen Mother.

You know, I have noticed lately, she does try to boss the others around a lot. It makes sense, seeing as she's a little older than the others.

I tried, but there is something seriously wrong with my camera. I just put new batteries in it last weekend and when I turned on the camera to take some shots, it said needs batteries. Time for a new camera.

Hazel, I love seeing her play. And even though sometimes when I see her interacting with the others it's a swatting fest between both, I figure, hey at least she's socializing

Last week, I put the harness on Vlad and took him out for a little walk in the hallway. It was too hot and humid for him, and too noisy so it didn't last long. But, when I came inside, Czari kept sitting next to the door, so I put the harness on her and figured, maybe she wanted to take a little walk. I opened the door and she backed away and went back inside. She must have thought, "No way I'm going back out there. It's too comfy in here."

I love it when the kitties have the zoomies , it is so fun to watch them.

Glad to hear that she doesn't like her old life, just goes to show that kitties definitely like the indoor life better than outside. They just need a bit of time to learn that indoors is better.

I like to think she remembers how her life used to be, and maybe compares it to how it is now. She obviously likes it better now. What's not to like? A comfy place to sleep, regular yummy food, treats, roomies...

I know she's still curious about what goes on outside. I know Vlad and Oksana are. They pop their heads out the door sometimes, but Maks and Kiska have no interest. Czari likes to look outside the door, but she keeps her distance from it pretty much. I sometimes think she figures it's best to stay back, lest the hooman puts her outside again. Like that's going to happen.
