By way of a quick update, we have added a new housemate to our foursome (myself plus Malcolm, Nigel and Winston). He came to us last spring as a kitten, and a most annoying one, I might add. His name is Charles Templeton, and I will admit that he has become a rather nice little chap, now that he's grown some and settled down. In fact, he reminds me of my Timmy, whom I still love and miss. Not in temperament, as Timmy was retiring and shy, and this fellow is a bold, sassy one! But, rather, in his affection for me and his kitten-like innocence - two traits of Timmy's that I so adored.
As for myself and the others, we are faring fine and have been enjoying good health and plenty of fireside naps this long winter. We are looking forward to spring, when the servants shall be directed to open the windows and place our pads on the sills so that we can all enjoy the fresh air and watch those maddening birds and squirrels who so love to taunt us!
More soon, and in the meanwhile I wish all of you and yours a wonderful week!
