The first, Mr. Modtomic's kitty, is staying over while his mom and dad roadtrip. The poor guy hasn't yet adjusted to his new surroundings, and this is just about all I've seen of him.
He's claimed the underside of my bed as well as the second story workshop for himself and isn't really up for any company yet. Hopefully liberal bribes of catnip and treats will loosen him up a bit and we can do some bonding.
I also brought home this Kay Bojesen-inspired teak monkey. I know that it certainly isn't an original Bojesen, but is it a Zoo Line? I've got no idea. So many companies made so many knockoffs that it's hard to tell. Makes for great office decor, if not a great toy, irregardless.
I'm sure you and Macduff will be fast friends by the time they get back, but I bet you've already become pretty attached to that cool monkey. I wish I knew more about how to identify the wooden animals. I love them, but I don't know much about them.
ReplyDeleteHe's still very apprehensive about the whole arrangement, but he's now moved on to the window sill. Hopefully that means he's getting more confident. I've never really dealt with any cats other than my feral ones. I'm used to big, lovey dogs who want constant attention.
DeleteCats in general tend to take awhile to loosen up to new surroundings. You'll probably have him won over pretty quick! I don't know anything about the monkey but it looks like a great letter holder!
ReplyDeletelol Not even the catnip works yet and that's supposed to be like kitty crack. We've got some major bonding to do.
DeleteWhat type of hardwood is that? It is so pretty!
ReplyDeleteI'm not 100% sure, but I believe that it is oak. It's original to the home and could probably stand to be sanded and refinished, but I kinda like the rough, worn look.
