Simba, the Royal Cat
Last night, Simba got a treat. . .He got to prowl the neighborhood. He's quite a cat, and I'm sure you've heard that about cats in general. But Simba is a real treasure.
I have two cats and a dog. Duchess is 14 years old and acts her age. Simba and his sister, Nala, came to me when a friend found she was allergic cats and she had to find a home for them. Rather than split them up I took both. Family is family, don't you know.
Sissy, that's what I call her, is sedate and happy to lay around the house. Simba on the other hand is inquisitive and anything but sedate. I find a lot of pleasure in having both of them here.
So, what happened last night? Well, it was a nice cool evening and I left the family room door to the outdoors open as I have on numerous occasions. He found a he could push the screen out and there you have it. Simba was free!!
I had no idea he was gone until this morning when I fed the animals and he didn't come to the "table." He did return, however, about 20 minutes after I set his bowl outside. So glad he's back.
Cats love the outdoors
Some love it more than others
Simba's one of those
After his night out
Simba's relaxing right now

Certainly a beautiful cat. Neighbours here have cats. At night I see three or four of them wandering the streets and our garden.

Cat lover here. Thanks for sharing Simba's adventures. Glad he's home.
ReplyDeleteHope there is no habit forming with prowling at night. Too many things could happen. (I love cats!)
ReplyDeleteAh...a contented cat! Glad to see you back, Cathy!
ReplyDeleteWell, I guess you will never know where he ventured all night. His secret.
ReplyDeleteBit of a scare when you discovered him missing! Glad he returned quickly before you panicked!
ReplyDeleteI bet he will go out at night whenever he gets a change from now on...
