Bubbles Everywhere!
"Grandma! Come quick." I rushed into the bathroom as Fanta, our new rescue all black cat, was jumping out of Kaycee's bubble bath. Bubbles decorated her fur from head to foot. I grabbed a towel and the chase began! After the chase around the bedroom, I was able to wrap her in the towel and dry off the bubbles. We all had a good laugh over that. It was Fanta's dive into the bubble bath that finally gave me the idea of how to get my Little Honker out of the pond. We soon discovered that Fanta loved water, but not bubble bath water. So, I decided I had to work this story and Fanta into Backyard Adventures. This crazy kitty has continued to amuse us with her exercise wheel, also included in this book, her jumps to extremely high places, another bit I included in the book, and her left paw drinking. Thanks Fanta!
Book Excerpt
Little Honker's Backyard Adventures
Suddenly there was another splash in the pond. Warren felt a push, a shove, and the next thing he knew, he was at the edge of the pond. He pulled himself up, shook himself off, and looked around.
He saw another cat. Big, mostly black, and soaking wet just like he was.
“Who are you? Where did you come from?” Warren asked.
“I jumped over the fence when I heard your honks. You’re a cat. Why do you honk?” the new arrival asked.
“My honk is my meow. I was born this way,” Warren said. “What’s your name? Where do you live?”
“I go by Fanta. We are moving in next to you.”
“You seem to like the water. Even though I like new adventures, I don’t think the water is a good adventure for me. As you saw, swimming is something I can not do very well,” Warren said.
“I know cats aren’t supposed to like the water, but I love it! I always get in the shower after my people get out. I love to get in sinks when I can. I love running water! And, one time I even jumped in the bath water when Kaycee, one of my humans, was taking a bath. The disappointing thing was that it was a bubble bath! I can’t say I was very fond of the bubbles,” Fanta said.
