Introducing your regular casts: Truman and Michiko

Oh dear, this is the second post of the month? The absent is justified by the amount of happenings in such a short time. First of all, after a week of vacation leave, I’m finally found what I think will be the best suitable companion kitten for Truman. I named her Michiko. Today has been the fourth day since Michiko joined our family. The progress has been going well. This little ball of energy never stops, play play play and I am happy that Truman joins in.

Truman & Michiko really take loads of my time, ehem… gaming time, away. But it is totally fine because it is so much fun watching them play. My race to top 50 will now take even longer, but it’s fine.

THE TRUMAN & MICHIKO SHOW
Episode 1: First Encounter
Date: 15-Aug-2009

Truman: See that handsome picture on the left? That’s me, Truman. I’ve been staying with my owner for almost 4 years now. This is the best life of all of my 9 lives. I sleep most of the time but when my owner goes to work, I feel a bit lonely and I am very excited when it is about time my owner is coming home. I always sleep close to the door so I can greet as soon as I hear the keychain.

As if my owner knows what I am thinking, last Saturday on 15th August, a small fella entered our home. I am very curious at her. She is so small and afraid of me. She kept hissing with the fur stood up. Ha ha, she looks so fuzzy that way. She kept hopping sideway in that defensive position. I tried to make friend by slowly approaching and sniffing but back away when she is defensive.

I found out that she was named Michiko, that’s her picture on the left. Her color is the very typical calico (tri-color) but the pattern arrangement is so atypical and interesting. You see, she wears white socks and has pink paws. Her face is roughly split into half of majority brown and black, same as her tummy and her front leg. Her hind legs are almost perfect except a patch of light brown on the right leg.

I hope she will adapt well into our home very shortly.

Michiko: Zzzzzz

THE TRUMAN & MICHIKO SHOW
Episode 2: Almost there, not too bad at all
Date: 16-Aug-2009

Truman: Michiko is not too feisty, she is still afraid of me but she’s getting used to see me around. She is quite brave and not hiding in dark places. She explores, and afraid of me more than my owner. It’s ok, I am a gentlecat and always give in to her. Michiko is smart, she knows where the toilet is and using it quite well. Food wise, she still like to eat mine rather than her kitten kibbles. As always, I let her without raising a paw. Oh, Michiko is not a fussy eater at all, she eats anything, dry kitten food, dry adult food and cans food. She is rather skinny and I am sure she will be bountiful in few months. Since Michiko is still afraid of me, she has been playing with my toys and new toys my owner bought. It is only the second day and she shows an eagerness to play with me, but still a bit reserve. I’m sure it won’t be long until we play together.

Michiko: Ball! Bouncing ball! Tail! String! Plush! More Tail! Yay!
