Kona meets her cousin, Gnocchi (pics)

[Kona & Oreo's mom]

Last week my house had to be fumigated for termites (yuk!), which meant that we were all displaced for four days. Oreo stayed at the kennel, but Kona stayed at my sister's house with me where she met her cat-cousin, Gnocchi. He was the first cat she's met (other than her mom and litter-mates). Here's how Kona's visit went:

First, mom made me leave my wonderful home and ride in the car--how traumatic! I *had an accident* on my mom and howled the whole way to my aunt's house. Then, just when I got settled in my new room, I noticed a huge beast lurking at my door:

What is that? I asked:

Mom said he was my host and my cousin, Gnocchi. Even though I growled and hissed, he still was interested:


more to come...

Mom said she thinks he loves me:

I suppose--who wouldn't?

I played hard-to-get for a few days, and then we had to leave (no accidents this time). My aunt says that Gnocchi misses me. He still looks for me in my room and wants me to visit again.

Some boys just can't take a hint!

How cute! Another girl that's playing hard to get.

Kono, you are adorable, and poor cute Gnocchi (love that name!) is just pining away for you. Maybe since there were no accidents on the way home, your mommy will take you visit again sometime.

Great pics!

You heartbreaker you! Kona...he is gorgeous! Think it over!

I expected Kona to be a little more friendly, but she wouldn't hear of it. All the while, Gnocchi was a gentleman. He kept his distance and looked at me as if to say "Why is she so mean?"

Awww, that is just too cute!

Glad Kona is home after all that "courting". Boys can be so forward sometimes.

Ohhhh, Kona, of course you're a girl a boy can loose his head for. But look at that Gnocchi gentleman -I would think twice about it. He's elegant, has style and seems to love you sincerely

Too cute for words.

Oh Kona you are gorgeous. Like you said,"Who wouldn't love you."
You old heartbreaker you.
Better luck next time Gnocchi, but I don't see why Kona wanted nothing to do with you, you are so handsome.
