Hi!! We wanted to get off a note to let you know how things are
going with me. You might remember me as Freddy, although my new
human friends are calling me "Mao."
My new home is HUGE! There are so many rooms and closets and
places to explore. I spent my first day home exploring and
sniffing everything. I kept getting lost! Those things called
doors were kind of hard to figure out. I wasn't worried, though,
because when I call, my new human friends come right away and
show me how to get out of where I am. They showed me lots of
windows I can sit in and look outside, and they have this really
large window that opens onto an upstairs deck that I
particularly like. It faces some woods and I can see birds and
squirrels and bunny rabbits. I don't get to go out on the deck
unless one of my human adult friends is with me. When we do, we
don't stay too long because it's cold outside.
I have all kinds of new toys to play with. My favorites are this
big purple feather on the end of a stick and this neat
scratching post with a mouse hanging from it. My humans like to
play with me a lot and when I just want to be scratched or
stroked, all I have to do is walk up to them. I have my very own
brand new litter box and new water and food dishes. The first
night they gave me a spoonful of some kind of canned food as a
treat. That was pretty good, but I don't get it too often. There
is always regular food and fresh water!
The first night I was there I had to take a warm bath. I don't
know if I particularly care for the bath thing, but the
attention afterwards was great! They wrapped me in towels
and then sat in front of a cozy fireplace to dry me off and
brush my hair out. I really like that brush!
I have a new bed too! It's right beside the fireplace. Sometimes
I sleep in it, sometimes I just stretch out in front of the
fire. At night I sleep either in the big humans' bed with them
or I go over to the little human's room and sleep with him.
My new human friends are going to introduce me to my new doctor
soon. More on that later.
Okay, I have to go. One of the big humans wants to play hide and
seek with me! Have to chase her and let her chase me!
Thanks for my new humans!
