  1. I adore reading about little Ivy’s antics – what fun she must be to watch! My sweetie is still trying to introduce Luna to the queen of his house, Lucy – it’s slow going, Lucy isn’t thrilled to have another kitty in the house. She still hisses at poor sweet Luna – hopefully she will just get used to her so they can become the best of friends!

  2. A year already! Ivy and Charlie are lucky, Brenda – what a good life you give them. And great company they give you.

  3. Brenda, My daughter got a pet cam to watch her new puppy when she is at work. She can even hear the pup and talk to her while she is away. She got it from Amazon for about $25. It would be fun for you to watch Ivy when she is alone in the apartment.

  4. Happy Anniversary, Ivy! She is such a lucky cat to have found a home and family as great as you and Charlie. Her “forever home.” Looking at the photo of her with Charlie it looks like she is as big or bigger than he is. I bet she is definitely heavier. A good-sized kitty. The photo you’ve posted of Ivy is beautiful. A real portrait you should frame. It shows her brightness and her lovely green eyes perfectly.

    Hope your week is off to a good start with your two “house mates.”

  5. My cats keep me on my toes constantly, too – especially Clementine. Just from personal experience with having cats all my life, it seems female cats are much more active than the males. I tried some kind of LED toy once for my kitties and neither of them were interested.

    Happy anniversary to you and Ivy. May you have many, many more years together!

  6. My two cats love the rings off the plastic milk containers and paper bags better than any toys they have had over the years. Also one of them loves plastic bags to play on and really likes their smell. I watch to make sure they stay safe playing with the bags. They both have those running fits, too! They are so much company to me. You just don’t know what they are going to get into next.

  7. If you had a video camera inside your apartment that would be fun to see what Ivy does when you are not home. Then again she could be sleeping the whole time you are out and about.

  8. Happy cativersary! Ivy is such a pretty cat – so glad she is such good company.

  9. Happy anniversary for Ivy’s takeover of your home and life! For me, a house feels more like home with a cat or two. Our two cats are best pals. They don’t care for toys the way Ivy does, but they do love cardboard boxes and paper grocery bags.

    We finally have cool weather and a lot of rain in Central KY. I am getting out the flannel sheets. I love this weather!

  10. Yes, life is far more interesting with a cat. My two keep me entertained, and it seems they are always into something, but it keeps life interesting. Leo has decided he loves my queen bed, and he sleeps on it most of the day and then is up all night. I had to start putting a throw over my bedspread as he sheds a lot right now, I think they are shedding their summer coat to get their winter coat ready for the cold weather. My desk and computer are in front of my bedroom window, and every morning they sit on the sill and watch the birds fit around the trees right outside my window. Their tails swish back and forth in excitement when they spot a bird. I find myself making all kinds of accommodations for them which I think is probably good for me as living alone can make a person pretty regimented.

  11. I used to have two cats who were best buddies. Long story, but every day, twice a day they would do their romp. Chasing, attacking etc all across our upper floor, down the stairs and across that floor and back up again. One cat, huge, part Maine Coon would leap three feet in the air, tuck his head and land on his back ready to be attacked. They loved it. Twice a day every day. I think it was their exercise and their play.

  12. Happy Anniversary Ivy! How wonderful that you found this sweet, wild girl. I am sure that she brightens your days!
