Protection
CCL made a little fort for Koko. She likes the protection.

The Great Escape
Koko and Jean Claude really enjoy their time outdoors at CCL’s new house. Unfortunately Koko really wants to explore the neighborhood and has found several escape routes. CCL has attempted to block the free spaces in her backyard with plastic containers and has installed a warning system (the orange plastic container at the top of the fence). No matter. Yesterday afternoon, Koko managed to escape to her nextdoor neighbors yard and quietly returned when she was ready.
(This Post ran in March of 2013 but not much has changed at CCL’s house – Great Escapes continue to happen daily)
Aquas De Marco (Waters of March)
It has been a long winter in Washington, D.C. . This is a town where we used to get just a couple of snowstorms a year but now we got snow and messy weather (for this region) on a regular basis. It definitely put a cramp in Jean Claude and Koko’s activities as they like to go in CCL’s backyard and explore. The winter season had a pretty dramatic impact on me as well. There were disappointments , some sadness, some hurt but now I find myself feeling happy again with knowledge that many blessings are coming with the spring.
One of my favorite songs by Antonio Jobim – Aquas De Marco- literally says it all
By the way this month, starts the fifth anniversary of “Cats and All That” go to our Facebook page and say hi.
Top Five
Experts say that we are all the sum is of our environment – of late it’s the sum or average of the top five people we spend the most time with- that’s why it’s important to pick your friends carefully. Koko and Jean Claude spend a great deal of time together at CCL’s house where they regular enjoy the company of other cats, still when it’s time to come in from the storm they chose each other.
