A precious angel



In case you can't tell kitty is adjusting to his new life.  He's found his new favorite spots to snooze, and his new favorite pieces of furniture to destroy.  He has gotten more comfortable with going outside but still acts a fool when trying to walk through grass.  He acts like he's walking through quicksand or something. 

Scott's backyard has a double deck around the pool, there is a cement section and a wooden section.  For whatever reason kitty has decided that the 3 inch space underneath the wooden deck is his favorite place to be. 

Before I got here I had these visions of kitty lounging in the sunlight underneath an orange tree, or curled up on one of the deck chairs overlooking the pool.  But no, his favorite place is a tiny dirty scary area underneath the deck.  Why is he so weird?!

And we are also having to have talks almost daily about how kitty does not need to be catered to all the time.  Like the other day when he climbed on the counter in the kitchen and started tearing in to his bag of treats and Scott responded by opening the bag and giving him treats.  His thinking was, "if I wanted treats that badly I'd want somebody to help me out".  He doesn't seem to understand the concept of reenforcing negative behaviors. 

Of course kitty is loving it in the meantime.  I'm going to try and take a video of him exploring the backyard, it really is hilarious.
