My next door neighbours, Patrick and Karen had to move out of their flat, and as they are in temporary accomodation, asked me to look after their cat, 'Panda.' I was worried at first, because I've never had to take responsibility for anyone before. It seems to be working out so far. I bought her a collar, with a bell, and a name tag with my phone number, and I'm learning to be excited about which brand of cat food to buy her.
I can hear her now! She must be out in the street. Maybe I was mistaken as I've been out on my balcony on one side, and looked out of the front door, and I can't see her. It's like that awful advert for Aussie tourism. 'Where the bloody hell are you???!!!' I don't know where she goes. Tell a lie, she goes into other flats as she used to come into mine, and they like to see her, and feed her, and have her company. She slept on my bed last night, but at 9am I let her out, and I've not seen her for four hours.
They are not the same as dogs are they?! Dogs want your company but cats appear to take it or leave it. No! They can, or rather Panda can, be very affectionate. She likes to 'invade' my personal space, and get up to kissing distance. And if she sleeps with me all night, she does not complain about my snoring either.
