We cleaned the “office” today, and had lots of help. Hazel and her kittens live there, and the kittens are getting used to the vacuum and the excitement of things going on. Hazel herself found a place to hunker down, and stayed there. She’s not a fan – but handles it pretty well.
We opened the door to the hall, and even tossed toys that way – but the kittens opted to say in the room. Their reaction varied, but none of them was super freaked out.
The most brave is Puck. He found the vacuum scary, and yet there he was, following it, sniffing at it when it wasn’t moving, and generally enjoying how scary it was.
But everyone’s favorite was the broom. They seem to love brooms! They chew and bite and tug and pounce. When it’s in operation, they run towards it on the pull stroke and dash away when it comes back at them.
My granddaughter recently commented that Puck looks like Gigi, the wonderful cat in the anime Kiki’s Delivery Service. Playing with the broom he really looked like Gigi. So I lifted him up so he looked like he was flying on a broomstick, and snapped his pic.
