Kaydra’s cat

For those that are wondering, we still have a cat.  The cat managed to work its way into our bathroom for almost a month.  The kids would play with it and try to get it to become accustomed to us.  Finally, we were having company over for Christmas Eve dinner and we needed our guest bathroom to be available!  Plus, we were getting ready to head out of town so we decided to acclimate the cat to it’s new home in the garage.  It was litter trained by this time, so we were hopeful that it would continue to use the litter box in the garage.  Leonard cleaned out the bathroom after we put the cat out -- while I was making dinner for our guests.  I have never heard him sneeze so much at one time.  It was quite entertaining and I appreciate him doing that – even though it was torturing him.   Poor guy!! 

Anyway, the cat found a new home under our freezer in the garage.  He continues to be scared of us and terrified of any loud noise.  He doesn’t hiss as much but still prefers to hide from us – well most of us anyway.  It’s been quite funny to learn that the cat has chosen Kaydra as its owner.  Leonard left one day for work and said “The garage has been open and I think the cat must have gotten out because I haven’t seen him all afternoon.”  Kaydra went out to the garage and called one time for the cat and he came right to her!   This happened another time when Leonard needed to find the cat for some reason.  He kept calling and calling with absolutely no response.  He called Kaydra and she called only one time again and the cat came right to her. 

He seems to be getting better and will now come for Kanyon and Miranda at times…funny how animals pick their favorites too!  We renamed the cat “Mystery”.  Then we learned that he is indeed a boy, so we switched it again to “Mister E”!  We think we’re pretty clever!  On the plus side, he uses the litter box in the garage faithfully
