Tatters learns to play

July 2002
Why is this such a big deal? Well, until now, Tatters has never played. She'll scratch the scratching post, but it's to vent her frustration. She didn't really play with her kittens, although she was an amazing mother.

It was Orion who took his life into his paws and taught her how to play. And I happened to have the camera out one night when she romped with the kittens. Most of the pictures didn't turn out, but I'm glad I have a tangible reminder of that evening.

Now that the kittens are gone, she's taken to playing alone on the scratching post. She flips herself upside down, attacks it from every conceivable angle, and shreds it to bits.











I was one of the first 50!
