Darla's favorite place to sleep.
We took this one as she was "attacking" us and caught her off guard.
Ah, Darla the cat-child. We only have Darla for one more week. It's been fun to cat-sit for these past few months. She has been a great play-mate for us. We have games that she likes to play. One is where she stalks us from the floor while we are on the bed. If we move out of view she pounces at us. She's too timid to really do much and usually only gives us a pat on the arm with her paw. She also likes to chase me through the house attacking my ankles when I'm wearing a dress. (FYI: This is Annie writing. I don't want to start any rumors about Brian!)
While she has been with us, Darla has earned the name "Darla the Destroyer." This is because of her many antics. She loves to get into the window sill and look out into the world. As she has done this she has bent three sets of blinds. Also, for some unknown reason, she enjoys chewing on the blinds. Strange. When she is angry (usually because we've put her in the bathroom too long) she kicks her cat litter all over the bathroom floor, which looks like she is trying her skills at Japanese sand art. She enjoys jumping onto the back of the kitchen chairs and attacking her own tail through the cut outs in the wood.
Darla demonstrated her newest trick last night. We came home from a lovely night of Chinses massages and Vietnamese food with our good friend, Tanya, to find Darla stuck in the shower. She'd managed to jump over the shower door to get to the window in the shower. Then she was stuck. We've decided to just leave the shower door all open so that she doesn't have to do this stunt again! Crazy cat!
