Close Napping

*Note: Today as I sat working in the office Caline and Frère squeezed themselves together in this little corner and this is how they napped for about 3 hours.

It started like this:

Frère, “…Zzzz…”

Caline, “…Zzzz…”



Then it went like this:

Frère, “…Zzzz…”

The Frenchman’s wife, “Oh, your head fell!”

The Frenchman’s wife, “Caline you haven’t
moved nearly as much as Frère has.”
Caline, “…Zzzz…”



Finaly it was like this:

The Frenchman’s wife, “Oh my, Frère you're so silly.”
Frère, “…Zzzz…”

Little Boss

 The Frenchman’s wife, “Caline why
did you climb up there?”

 Caline, “Because I wanted
to watch you work!”

 Caline, “I have a good view
of you from up here.”
The Frenchman’s wife, “Well how do
you like what I do?”

 Caline, “You do a good job!”

 Caline, “I really like to watch the mouse move
around on the screen and you do
a good job at making it move!”
The Frenchman’s wife, “Well how would
you like to come and play
a game with me?”

 Caline, “A game!!!”

 Caline, “Just one moment, I’m coming!”

Caline, “Don’t get started without me!!!”

Scaredy Cat

 Frère, “The dining room looks normal.”

Frère, “Nothing scary up there.”

Frère, “And there’s nothing down
there that can hurt me.”

Frère, “Ok, everything is
just right for a nap!”

Frère, “Just got to get my foot up here.”

Frère, “…fell off…”

Frère, “Ok, get up here and stay!”

Frère, “What was that!”

Frère, “Oh, it’s just you.”
The Frenchman’s wife, “Yes It’s only me,
you’re safe, go back to sleep!”



*Note: I have never known a cat to be more scared than Frère is. Poor guy every strange sound bothers him and anything new is a threat. But he feels safe knowing that we are there and his sister Caline is there. She often licks him when he is scared and he calms down.
When we first had them Frère would call for Caline to come to the litter box with him because he was scared to go alone. She would lay on the floor in front of the box and wait for him to finish and then they would go run off and play together. Thankfully he grow out of that.

Paws Crossed

The Frenchman, “Frère you look so
funny sleeping with your
paws crossed!”
Frère, “…Zzzz…”



*Note: Frère often sits like this when he starts a nap and then his head falls and he changes positions.

Something Strange

*Note: Just before going to bed we noticed something strange, this was what we saw:

The Frenchman, “Humm who’s hind foot
is this hanging out?”

The Frenchman, “Frère I think that your
hind foot is exposed.”

Frère, “What! Now the scary things
will all know where I am!!!”
Caline, “Don’t worry I’m here!”

Lazy Fisher

Frère, “Gurr!”

Frère, “Oh my, that was hard work!”

Frère, “I need to go take a nap now!”

Frère, “Oh, this is a good enough
place to take a nap.”

Mocking Pigeon

*Note: Today Caline and Frère sat all day at the window. I wondered what was so interesting because they were meowing at it and when I looked this is what I found:

 The Frenchman’s wife, “What
are you looking at?”
Frère, “Them!!!”

 The Pigeon, “Ha ha ha,
silly cats!”

 The Pigeon, “You can’t
get me!!!”

 The Pigeon’s friend, “What
are you doing?”
The Pigeon, “Messing with
those two cats!”

Caline, “If this window
wasn’t here!”
Frère, “You are so dead when
we get out there!”
