Bit of a shock this morning to find the #
nursery box empty when I was going to bring #
Melian her breakfast. Instead of four little balls of fur, there was nothing.
Yesterday I found one #
kitten on a peculiar spot, behind a few boxes and a curtain. I wasn't sure if it had crawled there by itself, or if Melian had put it there. I assumed the latter. So I checked there, and found all four of them there, tucked in the lower part of the curtain.
Not an ideal spot from my point of view. Melian probably didn't see the bigger picture, where she had made the curtain part of her nursery, so that I wouldn't be able to open/close it anymore, if the weather demanded that. Plus, I couldn't easily watch what was going on there.
Although that may have been exactly why she'd moved them there. Yesterday had been busy: sister-in-law and nephew came to look, and touch, and cuddle and fall in love. And shortly after they had left, my neighbour -Melian's former personel- came to do the same. That might have been the trigger to move to a quieter place.
So, her personel felt the need to accomodate the removal. I refitted the nursery box: closed the side entrance in such a way that I could very easily open it again. And I cut a front door into it and swapped the T-shirts for a few fresh ones.
Seemed alright for me, but you know how #
cats are... Only one way to find out if the queen approved. I gently took the kittens out of their new hiding, put them into the refurbished nursery box, made room for it on the new spot and put it into place. Now for the verdict...
The queen approved 😎
