A Boy and his Cat

Mozart is such an independent cat. He loves living in the country, having fields to roam, mice and voles to catch. I know he thinks his life is pretty sweet. He only stops in for short periods during the day, to grab a snack or a quick snooze on a nice warm bed. While he is not a lap cat he does love a good scratch or rub. He is a patient and very tolerant cat, often having to put up with attempts of being caught by Shai, usually turning into a tail pull or awkward manoeuvre.

Each of the kids have different animal duties each day. Shai is no different. At nearly 3 he is proud to take care of Mozart, almost never having to be asked. Each day he feeds him, asks for a cup of water to fill his bowl, lets him in and out of the house. The two of them are quite a pair.
