Bosco has had free run of the house for a week or so now - his two chosen places to be are in the entry way, where he can see both the bedroom and living room, and the bedroom itself, as he's taken to sleeping on the bed when I'm in it. Which is both fantastic and squishy - three cats and two humans.

He's also discovered the joy of playing with toys - his favourites are a small plush tiger which he bats around the room and pounces on and a ball which both bounces and jingles. Fantastic fun.

Bosco is growing up quickly - I should post some updated photographs of him. I think he's going to be a handsome cat soon and he's seeming rather agile. He's been jumping the gates which are up for the puppy. He's also discovered and started using the litter tray without any prompting by us - smart cat!

It'll still be a few weeks before we take him out into the garden for the first time - I'd rather like to put some latticing up on the back fence to stop all of the cats jumping it, though I think it'll be a while before Bosco can get that high. He's got to have his second lot of immunisations before it's an issue anyhow - they're due in a week or so.

Having him here has been an absolute delight. He's affectionate and sits on my lap on the couch and loves scratches around the sides of his face. Occasionally I get a nose kiss in bed and he'll want a belly rub, but I think he's going through a bit of an adolescent wanting to be independent phase at the moment.

Oh - and his belly has spots, which is awesome. Much love for the Bosco.
