Maddy has re discovered her Igloo now that the weather has turned chilly … she blends in and is difficult to see but when she looks up, we see her “headlights” flashing ! She has always slept on her "chosen " chair but a couple of days ago I went into the sitting-room to call her for breakfast which in itself is most unusual and I couldnl't find her. Out of the corner of my eye I saw a movement in the Igloo and there she was all warm and snug!
Maddy has a routine in the mornings, in which we are now fully trained. First and most important … Foooood, followed by a long brushing and out to the garden toilet area … nothing else will do. I have to stand outside in pj’s, thick woolly dressing gown, boots and torch in hand … thank the lord it is still dark …. poking around in the undergrowth to make sure there are no marauding cats around before she will come out for her ablutions. Depending on the urgency, this can take a while as there has to be much snuffling around to find the right place and of course sending and receiving P-mails.
Of course when she comes back inside she tells The Man Servant, (who by now has just about managed to get out of bed), with a straight face, that the “Woman” has neglected her morning brush and she wants it NOW!!
