Our lazy boy Kietser has been enjoying our time home during school holidays to his heart's content!
As it is winter, he chooses the toastiest, fluffiest spot and takes long, delicious naps during the day.
He has been putting on quite a bit of winter weight, feasting on his favorite Whiskas snacks and any delicious morsels that he can snatch from an unsuspecting victim’s plate.
Once Kietser settles in, no one is allowed to move. Here he is cuddling with his favorite person, my daughter Linda. The two of them have spent most of their lockdown days, being lazy in bed with a good book or movie.
When Linda is not at home, Kietser makes his bed on my lap, snuggling up in my winter pajamas. If I dare to move, the teeth and claws come out.
I am only allowed to touch him when he offers an ear to me, otherwise, this is the stare of annoyance I receive, before the beans sprout their sharp razors!
Kietser loves staring over the boundary wall and taunts the neighbor’s dog. He sits there during the late afternoon, while the sun is setting, only giving up his spot, once the barking gets too much for us, and we spoil his fiendish plots!
He usually cries the call of his people during the early morning hours, looking for a toasty bed to curl up on, and if ignored, his razor claws scratch the door until one of us relents and open up for him.
Through all of his perks, he is still the king of this castle, and none of us would prefer it any other way!
