    Hmmmm, this sounds as if she was Kiri's long lost sister. Can't wait to see pictures

    Bourgeoise sounds adorable, and you're clearly having a wonderful time and doing a wonderful job taking care of her, Randi.

    Well done, Randi and Bourgeoise (and Fister too)!

    I’ve been visiting Bourgeoise for a month again, her family took a vacation. She’s a sweet girl, one year old and easy to look after. This time, I brought Fister’s PetMate, a piece of sisal carpet she used for scrathing, and a tunnel. What she loves the most, though, is to play with a string (two shoe laces tied together), small mice thrown in the air and to drink from the tap. She did eventually drink from the PetMate, but at first, she was a little hesitant, because of the slight noise it makes. She will let me brush and hold her, too.

    Personally, I think they should get a sister to play with, since she’s bored being alone and the family are away several times a year. Perhaps next time they’re away for long, I’ll suggest I take her home.

    Here are some pictures of her:

    She sure is gorgeous. I bet she does get very lonely being by herself for that long. Maybe the family will decide to get another cat.

    What a gorgeous girl! And I like Beaujolais better than her actual name, too!

    Oh my what a beautiful kitty. Bourgeoise, you are most fortunate for such a caring cat sitter.

    okey-doke. I'm not sure what the spelling was that I checked. There are so many words that have multiple pronunciations. Sigh.
