New short stories from Katerchen - a photo on Flickriver

            Three short stories from this week:

One day this week, just before midday, I went out into the garden to fill the next garden bag with shredded cane in the beautiful sunshine. I hadn't really been out yet when Timmy had already left our bed to take the opportunity to help Daddy in the garden 😉 The first thing he did was climb onto the valerian pot. Nothing to see yet, but he can probably smell it already. Then I cut off the first stake reed, which is up to 3 metres long. When I hold it over the garden sack to cut it, the top end wags around on the lawn. Of course, Timmy can't miss this invitation. Off we go, happily pulling up stakes 😊 Without his "help", the work would be done twice as quickly. But we had much fun 😊

Yesterday after lunch I was getting ready for my nap when Timmy came in. He had a quick sniff at all four bowls of the 24by7 buffet, but his tiredness got the better of his hunger and he went to bed, where he lay down at the foot of the bed. I also went to bed and told him with explanatory hand movements that he had to come up to me if he wanted to be stroked. He stared at me, but nothing happened. I tried several times, but he stayed lying down, always staring at me. Then I closed my eyes and thought "if you don't want it, you've already got it". A few moments later, I heard him get up and come over to me. He lay down so that I could stroke his lower half, which I then did. 

The moral of the story: sometimes you just have to give in if you want to be stroked 😊😊

Now to the story with Timmy's lookout ladder. Recently it rained quite heavily. Afterwards, the water was standing on the tiles in front of the ladder. When I entered the terrace, I saw Timmy sitting on the left in front of the bridge and whistled to him. He set off briskly, under the fence and then, as always, he dashed through our garden, up the three steps in one leap and then ... he wanted to jump onto the ladder in one jump to cuddle me. But because of the thick film of water, he had no grip and slid very quickly towards the ladder. I thought he was going to crash into the round strut - there's just under 14 cm between the strut and the ground. But no - he stretched his legs, pressed his head and bum to the ground and slid under the strut on his belly. He then managed to turn left while scrambling to his feet and avoid colliding with the ladder steps. 

And the moral of the story: if you jump into the blue, you should have very good reflexes 😊😊😊😊

You never get bored with a Katerchen like Timmy :-)))
