Fiona’s Follies

Squirrel Watching

by Lucy on March 23, 2010

An amusing episode of squirrel watching from their vantage point on the sofa in my office!  Fiona and Caesar (constant companions) are mesmerized by a little squirrel at the feeder outside the window.  The amusement continued until Fiona elected to go outside for a closer look at the squirrel — who scrammed!

Rainy Sunday

by Lucy on May 17, 2009

Somehow Fi has sensed that she must go into hibernation for this rainy afternoon.  Trips outside mean being way-laid by Mom upon re-entry, with a towel to wipe off muddy paws.  It simple is not worth the trouble, Fi thinks.

All kitty friends (term ‘friends’ used loosely at this point) are sleeping in baskets of warm laundry or sandwiched between pillows on the bed or sprawled on the clerestory ledge in the kitchen.  No action here, alas.

And Fi is tired!  From chewing up a large sponge, a small piece of firewood, one whole new rawhide chewy, and several used dryer sheets.

A quiet Sunday afternoon in the office.  Note that we are smiling in our sleep!

Little stuffed toy does a double take!  Gift to Maggie from Cousin John McCleskey, this little doggie has become a favorite companion for Fiona.  Note how tongue is hanging out blissfully!  Must be a good dream.
