The silly Amazon box has remained in play all week, but Kali has had to share it with Kiko.

Kali still does the serious work. This week I threw in another bunch of brown paper that Amazon uses in their boxes, and Kali immediately went to work ripping it up into smaller pieces until it was apparently considered satisfactory to roll around or sleep in.

Apart from that, it was a normal week. Food that gets gobbled up one day is hated two days later and left for the ants. I’ve given up trying to understand it.

Oh, there has been one dramatic change in cat behavior.

For at least a couple of years, Kinikini would lurk by the door from the garage into the house, and would regularly sneak out into the garage when anyone opened the door. Usually just want to do patrol the garage and then, after just a few minutes, would be ready to come back inside when I called him. But sometimes he would want more time out there. And that meant that every once in a while, we would forget to let him back into the house. For a long time, it didn’t seem to have any effect on his desire to tour the garage, but then something must have happened. We don’t know what. But he’s stopped hanging out by the door, and hasn’t made any attempt to visit the garage since at least the middle of July. It’s a big enough change in his behavior that I figured I should report it.

Otherwise he seems fine, although I’m still keeping a close eye on him just in case. Changes in behavior are always red flags.

In any case, I hope that you enjoy the Feline Friday gallery!
