I will be catsitting Shanga - meet her here... New pics!

Tracy, I don't know much she weighs, but my guess is about 3 kg.

Shanga’s family will be back tomorrow morning, so it was my last day catsitting. She was very happy to see me and we played a lot. I was with her for two hours. When I was about to leave, she started miawing and kind of attacked my legs - I guess she wanted me to stay. Perhaps a sister or brother to play with would be a good idea.

I didn’t get a good video, but here’s a few more pics.

WOW what a beauty she is Randi!!!!!

I'm catsitting Shanga again and I have to admit I'm a little scared of her. She gave me a scratch on my cheek today. The poor girl must be bored, so I try to play with her a lot, and give her treats, but without warning she will jump at me.

Will try to get some more pics when I have charged my battery.

Do you think she smells Fister on your clothes? That might be what's
prompting her play "attacks". How long will you be catsitting this time?
Be careful won't you.

Thanks Liz! Could be that she can smell Fister. When I come in, she rolls around for tummy rubs - after that I give her her wet food.

I'll be catsitting until July 15th, then again from July 29th - Aug. 8th. Luckily, my neighbor will go some days. I will certainly not go in shorts!

Maybe you can bring along a t-shirt or something you only wear when you visit her.. put it on over your Fister-smelling clothes before you go in.

Well, I'm pretty sure it's not the smell of Fister, because today my neighbor went and Shanga went after her face, too. We simply have to stay away from her head. I think the reason she behaves like this, is that she misses her family and is bored being so much alone.
