What more could a venerable tabby called Tigger want? How about a cosy fire and food served at the door?
That's a mobile igloo. It doesn't have wheels, but it does have hyoomon staff prepared to carry the palanquin up or down the stairs. Most likely to the peep's bedroom. In the other bedroom, there is the Satellite. It is not quite up to the heights of the Greek Condo he enjoyed, but still pretty impressive.
As well as the provided positions, there is a plentiful supply of casual posts:
Upon what does the Tigger gaze?
Well, there is The Stream, lots of trees, and passing traffic.
My primary role during the next couple of weeks is to ensure that Tigger has all he needs, including cuddles, grooming, feeding (natch), cleaning away of 'leavings' and access to all areas as required. There may be some watering and tending of seedlings, too - though not at the allotment. That will just have to fend for itself until F returns.
The deal from my side is a comfy bed, a pretty garden, birds to watch, and buses and trains to take me to interesting places. Just how many places I get to will be determined by several factors. Not least, a body that demands twice the amount of rest for the activity undertaken! I hope that ratio will improve over the next few months, but I am also of an age that accepts... well... age... and what comes with it!
Anyway, watch for more random reporting from Tigger's Castle!
Looks like Tigger is living his best life.
ReplyDeleteYam, what a purrfect place for you to light in for a couple of weeks!
ReplyDeleteTigger even has his own Stairway to Heaven (well not literally- wouldn’t wish that on him) a little help from his friends to achieve whatever he wants goes a long way. He’s still an inquisitive fella isn’t he…..
ReplyDeleteYou’ll do well together. I take it window cleaning isn’t on your job description.
This Tigger episode was a delightful read. "hyoomon staff" and palanquin set the tone for who's castle it is:)
ReplyDeleteWishing you wonderful discoveries and explorations while you're in Tigger-country Yam. xx
I love tiggers house, the container seat is such a wonderful thing...

ReplyDeleteThank you Moki, for visiting me while at Tigger's castle... as for the international, I am definitely a world nomad... I understand you are from the Great Down Under Parts, and as part of my plan over the next couple of years is to repatriate there, who knows??!!! Hugs and whiskeries, YAM-aunty xxx
Adorable Tigger!
ReplyDeleteYAM Bryan and I are over the moon happy at how you are spending your next few weeks. Being confined to the Hutch for many years. You are on vacation in a lovely x 87 area with a fine looking man cat Tigger.
ReplyDeleteYAY YOU and Tigger you both are lucky.
Hugs Cecilia
Every cat should live the Life of Tigger! his own private stairway to his condo with its purrfect view! Food by the fireside is splendid! he is living every bit as well as the Queens Corgis me thinks.
ReplyDeleteThat's royalty!

ReplyDeleteTigger and his secretary can't thank you enough for travelling most of the length of the country and taking on all these caring duties. Xxx Mr T and F
ReplyDeleteThat looks a pleasant place to be working staff to Tigger...who looks to be good company
ReplyDeleteTigger is so lucky to have you take care of him for the next week or so. We hope you enjoy your time and can't wait to see where the busses and trains take you.
