Observed by Owls

Standard

Meow, mom got up and took care of me in this early morning, said good-day to dad downstairs and went to bedroom after breakfast. What’s going on? She usually stays in the living room with me sleeping on the sofa. My activity for water, restroom and patrol thus started sooner. Hi, how are you covered within futon blanket? You are allowed to take a rest of course, please just keep me fed on time.

Bon Bonito?

Standard

Meow, it seems to be for Tora-chan, my colleague living downstairs. Dad kindly ordered an assorted package of jelly sticks including sardine, salmon and above flavors when I ate up pH-controlled tuna. Mom has given me 2 of the last per day, aside from energy sticks in tuna and chicken tender respectively. They wished me to find another favorite, yet I’m happy enough just with your love to me.

First Feast

Standard

So this is the one Mikan-chan took as her treat, yet really was Shin and Mei-Shun’s. The new microwave oven served well to grill a big piece of one-night dried 糸撚鯛=ito-yori-tai, sea bream. The wife is not good at using advanced machines for which guidebook reading is indispensable, yet made an effort. By the way, it was felt like smelling a bit fishy when she cooked toast this morning.

Bow-Wow, Bow-Wow

Standard

Meow, they say today is Dog Gift Day, reading month and date numbers as its 4 barks in our language. They should be cared with present boxes like Christmas Day? Hmm. Mine is February 22nd, set in the same 1987 as above by chance. By the way, this fish looks like coming directly from the sea of Nagasaki. Is it a treat for me, dad? Or did mom apply that idea of animal welfare?

Good Girl

Standard

So lunar October starts from today. Mei-Shun meant to walk to the nearest shrine after just a whole month, greet Gods and draw omikuji lots. However, she had to give priority to room cleaning which went behind the trip to Kyoto last week: she makes Fridays full of housework to enjoy fresh weekends. Her fluffy daughter, who was forced to stay home alone, likes this pattern as well.

Her Hiss?

Standard

… I have no reason to make it, still please kindly let me express gratitude to you distinguished 444 followers on behalf of mom. She looks happy from this morning, saying that one of laundry balls lost for around 2 weeks was found on the way to a main road. She has taken it to be closed into futon covering, fell on our garden when hung outdoors. Greetings to Mr. Green, purr.

Paws and Pads

Standard

Meow, this is another day of my breed comes once a month. It is actually a rule mom enacted recently as my voice sounds like “ny-ya”, 2 and 8 read in her language. Vivid sunlight, almost no wind, much more comfortable compared to yesterday. She worked at home all day long, that also makes me satisfied, purr. By the way, one more added to you kind followers here would mean my hiss, 4-4-4.

Friendly Furs

Standard

Meow, my day a month is here. It was amazingly cold from morning till night below 15 degrees Celsius. Mom kept an air conditioner above my bed whirring all day long to warm me, purr. By the way, why do you continue to look pleased after coming home yesterday? Danced well with horsey, good numbers on a scale. Hmm, that’s why you enjoyed rice balls and sweet dumplings beyond 8 hours.

Water after Water

Standard

Meow, mom rushed out changing pajamas into a T-shirt, returned in an hour and a half yesterday. Vaccination against the novel coronavirus? I heard that my breed could be infected with it as well. That is why dad also got shots months before, had a high fever and a flushed arm. And she looked surprised at numbers on her thermometer this morning, stays all day long with me. Purr …

Pretty Posture

Standard

Meow, we have 寒露=kanro, the 5th of autumnal 二十四節気 today. It means that dewdrops would be frozen in cold air, yet it seems all different. Room temperature keeps a bit below 30 degrees Celsius in daytime, above 20 all through the night. Mom told me that a beautiful 3rd crescent welcomed her at the nearest station, where she picked dad up in the evening.
