Sociability and games

Cecilia, increasingly known to her friends as Bushka, is a very sociable cat. Although she is less inclined to lie on laps (it is warm these days) she always rests within eyesight or hearing distance of us - she seems to enjoy relaxing to the sound of familiar voices. And she does still love a cuddle or two in the morning.

Her latest favourite game is hide and seek - with us. We let her know we are up for a game by walking away from her, then glancing back at her, before hiding. She either discovers us with a full frontal charge, or she sometimes surprises us by sneaking up from another direction. Sometimes, if we catch her running towards us, she does a comical sort of backwards run - still coming towards us but looking the other way! She really is fun, and we are so enjoying her company and funny antics!
