She did it AGAIN!

For the 2nd time. She sneaked out when Mummy put in some cardboard “toys” into the cage.

As usual, the swift action of hers made it difficult for Mummy to catch her back. She ran straight to the fridge, hiding behind it. Mummy panicked and with all her strength, (fyi, she has not had her lunch yet) pulled the huge fridge and the cabinet next to it out so that she could get a glance of her baby’s whereabouts. Cotton just loved her dark corner and newfound freedom hence she refused to budge even with rasins (her favourite treat) as bait.

Mummy was at her wits end with absolutely no idea how to lure this baby out from her “comfort zone”. She had exhausted all means (rasins, oatmeals, shoebox) to coax her. At this desperate moment, Granny Chua came to her rescue. With their combined force and wits, Cotton had no way to run away from them. Granny Chua was like a seasoned “catcher”. She used pole to force Cotton to one corner (to prevent her from running further away) while I was at the other corner ambushing. This was not easy as we had to second-guess her next actions. She spent her energy running between the fridge, cabinet and CPUs. By this time, both of us were exhausted and rained with perspiration. Tired! Cotton finally relented and emerged out from her “comfort zone”. This time, I approached her slowly with a box of oatmeal. She was totally clueless of what happened next. I grabbed hold of her and put her back to where she belonged: CAGE.

Both Granny and I heaved with relief that the whole saga (it took us half an hour) was finally over. Ms Cotton was totally unapologetic of her actions. She went straight to her bed and slept, like nothing happened at all! Goodness me!

As a punishment, she will be confined to her cage till further notice. No more treats and outdoor playtime for her. And Daddy, yes, no sandbath for her too!

Home Alone

Hail Fur-dom!
Daddy and Mummy will not be around these few days which means I can do whatever I want! 
Life without these adults are so much fun. I can be messy. I can be naughty. I can jump all I want. 
Life is sweet.
