Don’t you open that trapdoor,
you’re a fool if you dare!
Stay away from that trapdoor,
'cause there’s something down there…

Taking care of this cutie for the rest of the Month. She’s 10 years old but still active. The owners told me according to her behavior around me she deeply loves me, always lays next to me in bed and follows me through the house. Yesterday I had to get up early and she didnt liked that at all sat on my lap and wanted me to go back to bed haha. Enjoying my time with her!
And yeah she was found with one eye and without teeth in a warehouse as a baby probably and according to the targeted injuries this was a human. Despite this she’s very trusting around strangers and people in general.

Cats are just weird @bluekoolaid_88 Eclipse eats almost exclusively while someone’s on the toilet 
She’ll only drink out of it after it moves

Finally I got to spend some time with cats 
I’m so happy! 
I made a new friend through another friend a year ago, and yesterday I was able to visit her. She has one cat herself, but she was cat sitting her friend’s cat also. The cats are familiar with each and are comfortable in each others company.
Top pic is Beet, the guest, second pic is Bucky, the host, and third is them both.

If you ever want to babysit two black cats in London, we could house swap for a short while.
I’m only half kidding

You know, it’s funny. Alot of cats don’t seek out attention, but I’ve noticed they tend to approach either the chillest person in the room or the one who completely ignores them, which is usually the person who doesn’t like cats Makes sense this cat likes you so much. Many people don’t respect their boundaries or think every cat should be a cuddly baby (<- me as a child 
) I think you’ve always been a cat person, but never had the proper chance to realize it.
And that ignoring thing is common. I remember driving home and seeing our family cat, Silly (Sylvester), a few blocks away. He was the sweetest, most lovable boy, but when I pulled over he acted like he’d never seen me in his life and ran the other way! Then my first cat on my own, Spiderman, was an indoor cat, but omw home again one night, I see him walking down the sidewalk. We lived in a corner store so there were always people around. I opened my window and yelled “Spiderman! What are you doing?!” Not at all thinking about how that must’ve sounded to the people walking right next to him until later that night! Anyway, both of them always came back home as their normal cat selves. Like I said, they’re weird.

Not that near, unfortunately. There’s Sweden between us. However, I’ve been talking with one friend of taking a girls trip to London, but I can’t say for sure if and when that would happen 
But a girl can dream, eh!

And of course in the spirit of this thread, here’s another picture of Bucky! Such a sweet old man he is!

Yep, Denmark lots of times; Copenhagen is one of my all time favourite cities to visit ever. Stockholm (I really dream of doing an archipelago summer out there somewhere very very remote and private). I was in Oslo briefly and Tromso for a week.
I’ve never been to Finland however, but would love to combine a trip with Estonia (Tallinn and the island Saaremaa) with a trip to Helsinki and further up in to Sàmi territories and perhaps then westwards down into Norway. I really want to travel a lot more of Scandinavia.
Edit: my apologies if I am meant to say Sàpmi and not Sàmi, I am uncertain if that’s right or not.

Copenhagen is lovely! 
Well, if you ever make it here, I hope you get to see all of things on your list! 
I think Sápmi is Sámi in their language. After living and going around the Sápmi/Lapland area for 12 years, I wholeheartedly recommend visiting.
