Boggy thinks that she belongs to me, even though there are four cats in this house and they all belong to my cousin. Yesterday I noticed that her eyes change color, most of the time her eyes are brown like her fur, but when she goes out by the pool, they turn the prettiest shade of green. Boggy is being retrained to act more like a cat, as she went through a period where she didn’t use the litter box, but she is much netter now. We got this tent (shown in picture above) which she had to be put in every night and it became my job to lock her in. She is the fattest cat in the house and my cousin says that Boggy is too heavy to pick up and her boyfriend is not able to bend all that well.
Boggy seems to enjoy being in the tent, but she also likes the game where I have to chase her around and she runs and hides before I am able to catch her. My bathroom was under construction recently and I had to check into a motel for a week and my cousin asked me to take Boggy with me. We bonded and she has become very attached to me. Since we got new flooring here, Boggy has been staying in the computer room and she has not had an accident in the past two weeks, as she is using the litter box again. I am hoping that Boggy will soon have free rein of the house again, but that is up to my cousin and of course how well Boggy continues to behave.

So sweet. I’m allergic and love cats, so it’s great to live vicariously. Also, as a green-eyed lady, that song has always been a favorite!

Good idea with the tent.

Thanks KC. It really is working, and she has everything in her tent, cat treats, water, toys, a bed and a litter box. She is isolated like everyone else during this Covid-19 outbreak, but she is coping and getting better all the time.

She is a handful and it is probably a little of both.

Love your cute tabby cat! Glad she’s getting on well. Any change in their routine can upset their daily habits such as litter box using until they are better established. The private tent sounds pretty cool.
Great song, too. 🙂

I’d lay a bet that Boggy wasn’t using the litter tray because the other cats bully her and she’s lost confidence. Being with you as one-on-one has boosted her confidence and she’s not so afraid.

Love “Green Eyed Lady”. My eyes are hazel but when I’m super happy, they turn green and the brown is just a small spec. Weird how that works, isn’t it? Cute cat!
