After all the dampness had gone, of course. was the natural thing for a cat to do when umbrellas were available. But there was more than just drying and hanging up of coats and umbrellas going on down there. It seemed like there were an awful lot of instructions being issued. The small humans were unusually loud. They had those excited voices that generally made Augie run for a hiding spot.
The children tended to be grabby when they were too wound up, and petting the cat always seemed to be on their agenda at such times. Augie pulled herself up to an alert, seated position and turned her ears back. She would wait and see what happened when they came upstairs. If necessary, she would flee. Thump, thump, thump, went the feet, as the entire family trooped up the staircase.
First the children, who spilled excitedly onto the main level, then the lady human. Lastly, the man appeared, awkwardly carrying something large. And when Augie saw that thing, she was filled with concern. It was the cat container that was used to transport her in the automobile. She loathed the automobile. And she was not having any of that today.
Augie slunk over to the corner between the arm of the sofa and the wall and peered suspiciously out, sure that nobody would see her there. The man placed the cat container on the floor and, with some difficulty, made the front door of it open. Then all the people stood back. The lady shushed the children and they obeyed.
But they stood at some distance, hopping from one foot to the other, as if they would burst with energy. The man stood up with his hands on his hips and they all waited. die Küche der kleinen Küche vorsichtig zu beobachten. Und dann sah Augie etwas, das ihre Hackels auflöste. Eine kleine, kleine, orange Katze kam seltsam aus der Tür des Pferdekarriers.
Sie war weniger als eine Quarte der Größe von Augie und ihre kleinen Augen waren wie dunkle Knöpfe in ihrem schmutzigen Gesicht. No more than a doddering puffball, it seemed incapable of walking with any dignity. Instead, it stretched one paw forward, then another, lurching about. Its tiny tail stood out straight as a poker behind it. Augie viewed the small cat with dismay. This would not do.
It would not do at all. She craned her neck around the side of the sofa and watched the furry cream puff as it perambulated unsteadily around the living room. So far, she had remained unnoticed by the people, and she felt that was important. She had yet to assess this foreign threat to her personal space. But the interloper had not even noticed Oggy.
It was far too busy bounding unpredictably around the carpeted area of the room. It explored one furniture leg after another, marveling at the looming presence of the coffee table. Redirecting her unblinking gaze from the kitten to the humans, Augie sah mit Enttäuschung, dass sie nichts von ihnen, auch nichts von ihnen, zu ihr beibringen.
Das war unglaublich schmutzig von ihnen, besonders wenn man die Unwahrheit dieser Verbrechung betrachtet. Statt sie zu entschuldigen, oder sie zu überzeugen, dass die orange Kreatur bald weggehen würde, sahen die Menschen mit ihr besotten. The children lay down on their stomachs and watched the interloper's random progress around the room, cooing softly.
She could tell they were just waiting until they could pick it up and give it all of their attention. And while she didn't particularly want them petting her own fur and bothering her, she also felt oddly resentful that they might redirect their worship to another cat. Dann riefen sich die Kinder über den Furball und schnifften ihre Füße.
Und sie riefen leckere Geräusche an und begannen, es mit einem Namen zu nennen. Meatball, sagten sie. Meatball? Sie sahen sich unglaublich bekannt zu machen. Sicherlich war dieser andere Katz nicht aufstehen. What kind of a name was Meatball? The grown-ups spoke some words to the children and they reluctantly stood up and retreated into the nearby family room, talking excitedly.
Good, she thought.
and his eyes closed, and she realized he had drifted off to sleep, exhausted by his enormous adventure around the living room. Creeping around the couch, she took her opportunity to escape the room. She made straight for her cat door and burst out onto the back deck, where the rain had paused and the air was fresh.
Seating herself delicately in a spot with no puddles, Augie pondered the situation in solitude. It was cool outside. The only noises came from the birds, who seemed to be enjoying a break in the rainfall. Augie primly made her way around the deck. It was a place where she felt confident and in charge – The kitten would not be able to find her there.
She would wait a little while, and when she returned to the inside, she felt confident the other cat would be gone. Alas, there was no snoozing outside when everything was wet, so Augie soon tired of lapping at this or that puddle. Her tummy grumbled lightly, and she realized it was time for her mid-morning snack.
Mit Freude dachte sie an die kleine Portion von Essen, die sie von ihrem Frühstück rettete. Und sie hat entschieden, es wäre wahrscheinlich sicher, innen reinzukommen und es jetzt zu genießen. Sie hat sich zurückgezogen durch die Katzflamme, sie hat die Moistur aus ihren Ohren geschüttelt und sich in ihren Lebensbowl gewechselt.
She did this just in time to see the unwelcome orange visitor sticking its nose into her reserve of food. No meatball, the oldest child cried, scooping the offender into her hands. Then she put her face close to him and babbled some nonsense Augie couldn't understand. Aber Auggie hatte keine Zeit, um zu beobachten, was sie kommuniziert hatte.
Sie rührte sich zu ihrem Kühlschrank und beendete seinen Snack, bevor die andere Katze zurückkehren konnte. Es war klar, dass sie sehr vorsichtig sein musste mit diesem unerwarteten Gäste. Während Auggie gegessen hat, hat das Kind den Kühlschrank gesetzt. Auggie konnte ihn jetzt sehen, als er eine B-Line für die karpeten Steine machte, die zu dem oberen Niveau des Hauses führte.
Sie saß, als die Kreatur sich an den unteren Steinen setzte, und sie schlug laut. Der Schritt war fast so groß, wie er war. Es war klar, dass er es nicht wusste, wie er es navigiert, obwohl er es versuchte, es zu versuchen. The youngest human went to the stair and helped the ginger kitten onto the first step, whispering encouraging sounding words.
Emboldened by this success, the little cat sank its claws into the rug on the second stair and clambered up like a rock climber scaling a cliff wall. Then he busily examined the stair, sniffing every corner of it, before advancing to the third. The children chuckled with delight to see his spunky progress, but his energy ran out before he was even halfway up.
