Miss Oswin is getting used to it all. Again

Miaow

It's okay for some you know, like Brom (and Mouse) and Mara, but for me, this whole moving business is not so nice. I mean, no one else got stuck in a crate without a toilet to go to! I think it's cruelty, but it was only for a short while Mara said. Like 87 hours? That's not short, that's like forever!!

Perfect to watch the world go by

But we made it eventually and I was allowed out of that awful crate and that awful car. And then I got stuck in a kitchen! What?? I was there for ages before I was allowed out to go and explore. Mara says it was five minutes at the most, but don't you believe anything she says. She said the crate was fine too!

Don't worry, he is not real

I have been living here now for two and a half weeks and I am enjoying myself a lot. It would be even better if I were able to go outside as well, but Mara says that is not going to happen just yet. If at all! What?? I promised her to be good if I were allowed out after and now this? Oh, Mara says I shouldn't fib. 

The side window
Oma grew those orchids herself!

Anyway, let me show you my new house! It is great, because there are windows again. And things happening outside so I can watch it all. Oma* says I run around from one window to another to follow the cats, but I have to don't I? I can't follow them outside, so I have to run around.

Overlooking the garden

I can go upstairs as well, but I am not allowed in all the rooms. There is a bedroom that I am not allowed in, but Opa* doesn't always look carefully and I have snuck in. I know how to get a treat you know, because Mara then has to rattle the treat tin to get me to come out! And of course she gives me a treat.

The lace making bobbins are perfect!

Oma has her own room as well, she doesn't sleep there, but she does something with a lot of things perfect to play with. Mara says she makes lace, I say she plays with cat toys and I am not allowed in! I am allowed in Opa's room though, which he now shares with Mara. They have their computers there and Opa sits by the window. I have to keep him on his toes of course, so sometimes I just jump in front of him and then I can look out of the window!

That's where Opa sits and to get to the window...

There is another upstairs as well, that is where Mara has her room. I am allowed there, but only at night, because it is cold there. Fortunately there is a big landing as well with some lovely garden seat cushions: perfect for resting after chasing cats and birds and garbage trucks.

Yawn

I hope we can stay here a long time, because I like it. And one day I get to play with all the cat toys in Oma's room as well...

*Oma and Opa are Mara's Mama and Papa.
