Wow, that's getting into borrowed time.

Did anybody wonder what my Bengal kitten, Talia, has been up to? She was 4 months old on Feb. 13, 2014.





^Yes, it's true. Bengal cats love to be as high as they can in the house. No other cat in my house has ever tried to walk on a curtain rod.




^In a box that's on a chair. Naturally.


^Bird watching.




^Talia and big brother, Zion.




^Oops. The rod end pulled out. What now, Talia?


^Can she save herself?


^It's not looking too good.


^She's gonna fall.


^Bengal acrobatics.


^She made it!


^This was on 2-13-2014 and she hasn't ventured onto that rod again. The other ones, yes, but not that one. Smart .


^On her cat wheel. Sometimes she'll really get going on it.

Wow, Patty! She certainly has grown. How are the two cats getting along with each other? Has Zion become more sociable?

Zion and Talia play hard together using four paw drive to grip the carpet or floor. They get along fine. Zion is still a bit of a fraidy cat but is getting better. I've had family over a bunch in the past few weeks and he'll pretty much hide from other people but do "drive-bys." He'd see my sister and brother-in-law on the couch and walk by. They'd get a few pets in but he's way more sociable if the person is laying down or sitting.

I'm happy that Crystal is getting used to Zion and Talia. She's on my lap as I type, as she used to always be before I got them. She's taking back her place and not letting Talia get my lap all the time. Talia is in another chair in my office, while Zion is curled up on a blanket on the couch, the way Zoro used to do. I love my kitties.

I was wondering if that curtain rod was going to hold up. Nope. Smart cat is right. That is a big cat wheel! Interesting box, too.

New babies look so cute, Patty. Enjoy them. Just like real babies, they aren't babies for very long.

Yeah, that rod doesn't have an end piece to hold it in. I was just glad that it didn't hit something on the counter and break it. I was putting away a lot of that wine but haven't had any in about a week and a half. I put on way too many pounds with that, cheese and chocolate. I don't miss it, which surprises me.

My dog cat is worn out. She's been fetching a mouse for 30 minutes. She's finally not bringing it back to me.

At first I thought the cat wheel was your new all house fan (sucker). It looks as though your kitties enjoy life. Please be certain to keep your doors closed or the Bengal may exit never return, they're very adventurous and curious cats.

Thanks for sharing the pic's.

Gary, Talia has already snuck out 4 times. The first time I saw a flash out of the corner of my eye. The next three times I found her in the garage. She's lightening fast.
