Heeere's Kage - with a K

[Kage]

We, that is Kage and I, thought it time to open our own diary. Kage has been with me for eleven days now, and though progress may be a little slow, he's doing fine. From now on, he is to be addressed as His Fluffiness Kage I, Benevolent Ruler of the Hideout Realm, also known as Kage's Kingdom. The originator of this idea will remain anonymous and under lock and key . I just go along with it, but there's no need to worry; barmy I may be , dangerous I ain't - yet

(Serious stuff now - mostly) Each time I see him, which isn't every night, I think we are bonding just that little bit more. He's been taking treats off me through the bars for several days which I am very pleased about. Last night, I had a banana waiting ready for when I saw him. When he did come out - of the Sovereign Suite - I started to peel it, and wow! did that get his attention . I cut a slice off and put it through the bars, then dropped it, so I opened the door and picked it up. At first, he made his way back to the Sovereign Suite, but the temptation was too great. Out he came again and took it from me. I tried stroking him with a finger but he was having none of it. "Thank you for the 'nana, but it'll take more than this to get round me, as delicious as it was." is what I imagined he said.

There's so much more I want to tell about HF (His Fluffiness) already, but not all in one go, eh?

And by the way, to you all, he'd still like to be known as Kage

I bet he couldn't resist that banana I tend to find that touch isn't accepted inside their domain, but better started in a playpen area (I start with the bathtub as it's not too big an area). After he's been with you two weeks, you could maybe try that By offering him a tube/taxi to walk into with a nice smelling treat at the far end

It's hard waiting though!

I can't resist bananas either. They seem to remind me of a past life I may have had - swinging through the trees. The resemblance is there . Back to Kage. I'm hopeful we'll get there, and should that day come, when it comes, I will be able to extend his home further with the second extension I have ready, but I won't attempt this one while he is still inside his home. His hideout is too close. But come what may, I love the little chap unconditionally, and always will. He's perfect just as he is.
