Daily Bath
It has been quite some time since I updated you on my life here on the summit of Mount Washington. Since today is most defiantly an indoor day I can spare a few minutes between naps to fill you in. With the summit now open I am enjoying wandering around the deck on nice days rubbing up against the legs of visitors reminding them I am top cat. Sometimes I need to stare down other four legged creatures on leashes. Don’t they know this is my territory? When not out on the deck I enjoy begging for treats from the Observers and taking long naps on top of their most important reference charts. It’s a hard life I live trying to keep up with my daily schedule especially in the summer when I am so busy greeting tourists, but some feline has to do it. Well it is time for my next scheduled nap so I will be Zzzzzzzzzz…
