Growing up and playing up

At four months old her advancing age has not calmed Tilly any, precisely the reverse! Now instead of a tiny wee kitten hurtling about the place at break neck speed we have a much larger, though still small cat, bowling into, climbing up and falling off, everything. The damage left in her wake is proportionately greater too!

New additions to her 'feline hobbies' include anything involving water, be that the bathroom hand basin at every attempt to use it, the kitchen sink, with no consideration for it's contents, her water bowl which she upends all over the floor for a game and any running tap....no matter the temperature of the water coming from it.

Her nose biting antics at what she dictates is 'getting up time', usually about 5.30 am have increased to include cheek nibbling, she scales the doors like spider man if we don't keep her claws clipped and her short lifetime fascination for computers (like mother like daughter) has cost two sets of speakers in three days and makes it almost impossible for PG to use the laptop for her little head being placed firmly in his line of view!

She remains mostly in her natural state of nocturnal-ness, choosing to sleep for most of the day and then springing into action in the late evening just when we humans are considering chilling a little. She is a scream, a constant cause of amusement though I have never encountered a kitten quite so manic and just now and then an 'off' button would be helpful.

PG is convinced that if we search through her little furry coat long enough we will find three sixes 'tattooed' somewhere about her!
