Gilbert’s view
The other day, this arrived.It looked like a cat but it didn’t feel or smell like one. My cats are soft and furry and this one was hard and cold. It didn’t make any noise, either, which was strange. All cats make a noise.
Ah! It's a she and she's called Clarissa.Then I realised! She was an outdoor cat, like the little boy cat, Cuthbert, with the smiley face. I think she's going to have a plant in her. I wonder what she will have?
How many more of these strange creatures will there be?
Aww the confusion.
ReplyDeleteGilbert does look a little confused, doesn't he?
DeleteGilbert is so cute and quite curious!
ReplyDeleteGilbert's nose is into everything.
DeleteBoth are super cutie
ReplyDeleteI think so , too:-)
DeleteI can imagine how puzzled Gilbert was!
ReplyDeleteHis first concern was whether or not it was edible.
DeleteNobby's view: the best sort of cats are those that have plants in them!
ReplyDeleteThey can't encroach on his territory!
DeleteDear Gilbert! xx
ReplyDeleteHe is a very sweet dog.
DeleteDear beautiful Gilbert, I was just thinking about you this morning and wondering when we might get one of your updates. That's a mildly interesting addition to your family but I wonder if you might have preferred a ball?
ReplyDeleteGilbert likes everything and carries lots of things around the house.
DeleteDon't worry Gilbert. She will be no threat to your exalted position.
ReplyDeleteHe is a worrier - I think all Labradors are ;-)
DeleteGilbert, be afraid very afraid, I think these are going to start popping up like garden gnomes. However we humans think it's really cute. Can't wait to see it with a flower.
ReplyDeleteYou could well be right ;-)
DeleteWhat a sweet boy Gilbert is x
ReplyDeleteAlison in Wales x
I don't think I've ever met a nasty Labrador.
DeleteThe best kind of cat, Gilbert. No mess!
ReplyDeleteNo cat food to try and steal, either, not that he would, of course, at least not while we're looking.
DeleteHow cute! We once stayed in a vacation house that had a painting on the wall that our dog would not stop barking at. We finally had to take the painting off the wall and put it in a closet, which of course, made all of my kids think the painting might be haunted.
ReplyDeleteOh, how funny. That's the basis of a good ghost story . . .
DeleteI like the cat's cheerful expression. Gilbert has a very expressive face, so dear.
ReplyDeleteYou can almost read Gilbert's questions from his face.
DeleteThat is hilarious! I bet he was so curious when it arrived. I love that bee picture in your header.
ReplyDeleteHe is interested in every parcel that arrives, in case it involves food!
DeleteLOL a lovely post.
ReplyDeleteI really like these "strange creatures" they look so cute and haven't they got wonderful faces and smiles.
Great photographs of Gilbert.
All the best Jan
It must be fun making them, I think.
DeleteGilbert really is the cutest ... but best not to tell the others :-) xxx
ReplyDeleteShhh! ;-)
DeleteHa, Gilbert seems intrigued, yet mystified with this strange cat!
ReplyDeleteHe is interested in everything, bless him. It makes opening parcels quite challenging at times.
DeleteGilbert's expression is worth a thousand words.
ReplyDeleteNot for the first time, I think, 'If only he could speak' - but he does his best.
