The words this week to start the new year off are ' If you want the best seat in the house you'll have to move the cat ' Maureen had gone round to see her best friend Trudy, not just to wish her a Happy New Year but to see her new cat as well. Trudy had been to the cat rescue place in town as she thought it better to rescue a cat rather than to start with a kitten.
Maureen, after greeting her friend, asked how she was getting on with the cat, was it settling down, and what did she call it.
" To be perfectly honest I don't know what to call her, Contrary or Awkward would be suitable, but it's a bit of an odd but correct name for this one. She looked so pathetic in the cats home and I felt sorry for her and she really looked as if she liked me"
"Well doesn't she like you" asked Maureen. "She looks very contented in that chair"
"Oh she thinks I'm great, I Buy her a special chair, fluffy and comfortable in the shape of a cat and what does she do, takes over the best chair in the house, so if you want the best seat in the house you'll have to move the cat"
"It's OK, I think I'll join you on the floor" replied Maureen.
"And to add another thing, I buy her the food she had with the rescue people and she won't eat it, I have gone through every cat food I can find and she will only eat the very best and most expensive one and any chicken I might have spare. She's going to cost me a fortune. Apart from that she is kind of cute. Any idea of a name for her while I make you a cop of coffee?"
" I'll think about it while you make the coffee" said Maureen.

Great story and what fabulous chairs you found.
Hope that this year is a better one all around and that you are settling into your new home for a new year. New beginnings!

You had me at Cat!! I especially love the cat chair. That is clever. I agree that if you want the best seat in the house, you have to move one of my fur babies. They take over the couch and the bed and anywhere else I want to sit. Sorry, unlike Trudy or Maureen, I won't be sitting on the floor. I would never get up if I did (grin). Thanks for sharing this fun journal page with us at AJJ using Mia's theme.
I love that cat sitting on the chair. And of course that kitty took over the people chair and not the cat chair. Grin. This is a great page Wendy, and a nice way to start the new year. And lots of dots too. Thanks for joining Mia at AJJ. And happy new year too. hugs-Erika
The cat story is great and I had to laugh at what the cat is like and what name it will come up with!
The story is a great fun new beginning in 2025 mixed with the great journal page!
Happy New Year, hug Elke
