Godzilla Kitty Strikes!

Life has absolutely been turned upside down. My favorite hiding place has been blocked, and I have no place that feels safe. Mandy has been helping me to find a safe place, and it has helped to clam me down. She has showed me many places I can hide, and I have picked my favorite. For now.

Yesterday I needed that hiding place. There were so many strangers in my house I lost count! And they all climbed up the stairs and down the stairs, over and over again. They made loud noises and banged on walls. They even used tools that sounded like they were trying to tear down the house. It was terrifying! It was so scary that Sam was home, presumably to protect Mandy since he knew Peyton and I would hide. Anyway, our house started heating up and my hiding spot really heated up.
Mandy was very cautious about the heat though, and she continually brought me water to drink. When I didn’t drink what she thought was enough, she’d put water on my nose. She did the same for Peyton too. One time when she checked on me, she said I was way too hot. So she came back a few minutes later with an ice pack! I snuggled up to the ice pack and used it as a pillow or slept on top of it. It helped to cool off my hiding spot! I felt so much better. Mandy says I am spoiled, but I know I am loved. Sam said it was his idea, and not to give all the credit to Mandy.

Last night, when our house was finally free of all of the strangers we came out to eat dinner and had a huge treat. Mandy had made us dinner! It didn’t come out of a can; she said she made it just for us! Peyton and I were a little skeptical at first, but that dinner was delicious! We cleaned our plate, and I even licked up the floor! We enjoyed the same special treat for breakfast, and we cleaned our plate better than normal. What a yummy treat!

This morning, I was sitting in my kitchen window, when I noticed that all of the trinkets Mandy keeps in the hall were out of their spot. So I decided to look at everything. Unfortunately I was more like Godzilla trampling a city. In a doomsday disaster, I knocked over Big Ben and it broke in half. Mandy came in and told me I’d turned into Godzilla. I felt awful! I was so remiss that she scratched my head, and told me not to worry about it. I did make sure I stayed clear of everything else, and was thankful when Mandy put everything away. Now the trinket cupboard is sparkling clean.

Well, Peyton and I have slept all afternoon, because Mandy did too. So now it is time to play.
