Monday's KCChronicles * Chapter 6 of his history with DU * In the new home.

"Shadow, What do think of this new place?"

"It's pretty good. You'll like it."

_____________________________________________________________________________________
KC reminisces:
"Do you remember, at the old house, when you saw me out on the tree limb?"

"I was worried you were gonna fall off. I'm glad you didn't."
"Me too! I'm going to take a nap."

After waking up, KC sought out sister Shadow. Told her what he'd seen.
"Guess what? Mommy & Daddy still have that old laundry basket
that I sat in once. Daddy took my picture. That was fun."

One time our friends and their kids came for dinner at the new house.
They got to meet KC. He was a hit!

As he became more comfortable KC relaxed. Most anywhere in the house.

Made himself quite comfy in fact.



He discovered our mirrored closet doors.

Took advantage of his old Cat Tree.

Sometimes he just plopped down right where he was.

He made himself comfortable in Mommy's recliner,
whether she was there or not,

but it was always better when she was.

Thanks for looking in. We'll see you next Monday.

I was sorting laundry and took a break. Upon return, there he was, just sitting in the laundry basket; like, why shouldn't he be? Thought I'd try and line up his eyes with the basket "holes",
and it worked.

I wonder if he'd go for it again?
