Dojo Scare

When I came home, Momoko told me that our Dojo fish had quite the scare today. Little Kat must have made too quick a move by the fish tank. Dojo was terrorized. He dug himself fully under the rocks at the bottom of the tank,.

Kit Kat was concerned because our Dojo never puts himself under the gravel. So she tried to scoop him out of the rubble. By the time I came home, he half buried himself again.

I guess the fish does not have a great long term memory. He now has come up above ground and seems ok. Be careful around the fish tank children. We don't want too much stress on our fish.

Camping Weekend

Mamma Kat and I decided that we would go camping last weekend. Kit Kat was not happy with this, since it interfered with her birthday plans. We trumped her complaints. However we did allow her to invite two other cats from her school to join us.

Kit Kat and her friends stayed up very late the night before camping. So it took them a while to wake up. We all went to eat a good breakfast at the Silver Diner. Kit Kat got some strange drink to go with her breakfast. I thought it was a fancy chocolate milk.

We packed up the back of my truck. Then we formed a Caravan with Mamma Kat's new car to a camp site I had reserved for us. We found a square pad filled with gravel. As we started to put together our tents, we noticed we were missing tent poles for our main tent. Little Kat and I took the truck back home to retrieve the poles. We also drove the truck to buy some firewood at the camp site. Little Kat was in charge of building cooking fires for the weekend.

As we settled down to play some games with Kit Kat and her friends, it started to rain. We then decided to put the rain proof part of the tent over top of the tents. The only problem was that we were missing that for the main tent. Mamma Kat scrambled to tie together a make shift rain fly to prevent us from getting soaked. Then fun was only just beginning. Some wild band of boy campers next to us broke out the guitar and played in the rain. Nice huh?
