A Story in Photos

Two things you need to know before I get to the story.

One, Newman sometimes chases his tail. It's hilarious.

Two, after seeing it on someone's blog (I thought I knew where, but I can't find it: was it yours?), I bought Newman this cat scratcher house thing:

A few hours after I put it together, he checked it out.
Scratched.
Considered the ceiling:

And promptly spent the rest of the weekend ignoring it, sometimes from close up.


However! Back to point one! Yesterday he went into it.

Paused.
Realized that the darned tail had followed him into the box.
Whipped after it:
Almost...
Got it!

Phew. Such tension. I was on the edge of my seat.

    1. He's been ignoring it recently, but I keep hoping he will get back in!

  3. How wonderful. Of course he needed a Seasonal Clubhouse.

    The fact that he gets irked at his own tail is beyond silly and charming. He is definitely the cat that you needed. How smart of you to know that.

  4. This reminds me that I *still* need to put together the little Christmas tree cardboard house I got the girls, oops.

    Newman is so cute, and that darned tail!
