Dobby Time

-

 

Isn't he looking all sweet and innocent here? The sun catching his coat and one ear. Yep! But his was shortly after he attempted to jump in the shower with me, slipped and ended up leaving a large scratch on my foot. Minor scratch, nearly completely healed. He is still a sweet boy. 

I was a bad cat mom the other night. I was tired, went to bed and forgot to put out more crunchies for him. So when I got up in the morning and went to get my own breakfast, yeah, his dish was empty. He got brekkie before I got my brekkie!

As of today Dobby has been here three months March 19 to June 19. He will get lots of love today, not that he doesn't get lots of love everyday. 

He still sleeps on the bed every night. Usually near my feet, although some nights he starts out on my pillow. He is a big cat so he takes up lots of area space on my pillow! 

The library did a trivia night on Thursday this week. A simple three section quiz, each section had a theme. Ten questions per section. It was the first time this librarian had done this. Matter of fact in chatting with here she hadn't even gone to a trivia night before. I suggested she attend one so she could see how things go. We offered up a few other suggestions and maybe they will have another of these soon. 

I think I counted 30 people who made up seven teams. We placed 5th, we didn't do well on the second section which was pictures of wizards. Let's see, Dumbledore, Gandalf, of Oz, the rest we didn't have a clue! Oh well, it was fun as usual.  

Back to Dobby, here he is getting a summer treat. I let him lick a bit of my ice cream cone. I think he enjoyed it. I used to share with Derby too. Ducky never was into ice cream. 


 Dobby zoning out on the front cat tree with the windows open on a nice night recently. 


Dobby studying the treat jar to get it on the floor. He didn't succeed here but he did later. Plus it landed just right and opened up for him, so he got some extra treats that evening!

Happy weekend everyone.

    Dobby is so handsome. Angel Raz was good at getting the treats open too.

    3 months already, that's fabulous!
    Such a handsome Dobby.
    Ya know, I read a TON, but haven't cracked the spine on a single Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, any dragon movies or TV shows, so I wouldn't be any good with wizardy stuff.

    Dobby seems to be fitting in pretty well. Purrs.

    Dobby, it’s great to see you! It sounds like the treat jar needs a new, safer spot.

It is Friday and in the liturgical calendar it is Good Friday. The Friday before Easter Sunday. Growing up this always meant church service in the afternoon, usually a long service with communion.  Dobby is doing well, I can't believe how quickly he has settled in and how comfortable he seems to be from his first days here. He will see the vet next week, so we will see what she says about him.  Doing his loaf impression on the bed.  Neon Lights from Big Twist. Nice bright primary colors.     This is actually my closet at the end of March. It is rather empty at the moment but I want to wait to buy when the company has a promo where they have a special on shipping for a set price for the entire order. Otherwise the cost of shipping is 10 percent of the value of the order and I plan to buy lots of yarn. I want to finish using the final three yarns on the right side.  Happy Weekend.  Happy Easter.

I am bummed, less than two weeks into this new blog and I get a comment that I had to delete. On the old blog I had comment moderation set up so that nothing showed until I had reviewed it. I was hoping with a new blog that I might have some time before that happened. Guess not. For now I will leave moderation off, but may need to put it back on.  Added 4/10/26 8 AM - Comment moderation is back on. I got six comments all from the same place. I did report them to Blogger, their ID said they had only been on Blogger since last month.   I am bummed as I seemed to have lost a few readers with the move. Even though I published the new link. Miss you guys! Dobby and I are at an impass of sorts. While he made himself scarce the day of his vet visit I figured I should see how well he would go into the carrier. NOT WELL! I tried twice and he spent a good deal of time in the basement hiding. We seem to be rebonding and I have to get him to accept the carrier, even if it is with bri...

It has been a long week. Severe weather with thunderstorms and a nearby tornado. Over 5 inches of rain this week alone and overall this month double what we would normally get for the entire month. One fatality, he was struck by lightning on Wednesday night.  The guy was walking in a parking lot to his truck. Thankfully no damage here and also to none of my friends. Lots of flooding, especially streets.  Amazing to watch all the stupid drivers who drive through flooded streets. Then are dumbfounded when their car dies on them. Thousands of dollars in damage to get the car engine working and the car cleaned out too.  Still working on crochet projects for the time being. This one is Happy Rainbow yarn from Big Twist, bright pastel colors. Would make a great baby or kid blanket.  Dobby is doing well, he did not freak out with the storms this week. Also he branched out and didn't sleep on my bed a couple of nights. Maybe he did sleep there but just wasn't there when I wo...
