So poco á poco the cats are getting some use out of the new cat tower. Luna loves the scratching posts, and Morcilla loves perching on top looking for the toys I hide in that top bit. Of course Loki can’t fit into either of the enclosed bits, but then the girls discovered they don’t like them either because, especially when they are in the bottom one, Loki gets his kicks by cornering them inside and attacking them (!!!). Luna has suffered a few nose scratches because of this, but Morcilla – clever girl – gets away by backing out of the space and slipping out from under Loki’s long legs. But after a few of these episodes the girls have decided to abandon the bottom hidey-hole, and I can’t blame them. WHATEVER. I should have just stacked a few boxes together with cushions inside…

My favourite time of year! The azahar started blossoming this week and now the whole city smells like heaven. I do miss having orange trees in my street, but it’s also a good “excuse” to get out for walks. Wish you guys could smell it.

I’ve become used to finding cat toys hidden under my pillows, but THIS is taking things a bit too far. Loki, of course! Discovered when I changed my sheets yesterday, so by my reckoning I was sleeping with a pork bone for about five nights. Ewww…

I admit it’s not my best habit, but I almost never sit at the table when I eat. Meals at home (unless I have company) are more likely to be snacky things, eaten either at my desk or sitting in my comfy chair with feet up while netflixing. Except I didn’t have a comfortable side table for doing this… until now! And look, it isn’t even IKEA. I needed an actual screwdriver to put it together. 😉 (that’s a stock photo by the way, not my sofa or books).
Anyhow, it’s practical and even has a little slot designed to hold an iPad. Which will come in handy if I ever start reading ebooks. But that’s it for furniture now… no more space – or need – for anything else.
