I’m becoming a big girl, Viola says – 2014 © Colehaus Cats
Every day I’m growing bigger and stronger, three month-old Viola says. Watch what I can do in just the blink of an eye!
With my keen hopping skills, I climb up here, and then…

Using all my toesies, I jump and pull myself up to the third level of the old cat tower. I don’t know why it’s called the old cat tower. It’s all new to me!

Then I scritchy-scratch the post because all big cats do that. I saw that on TV once. The announcer said it was very becoming.

Then I race to the edge and using magic and a half spin-turn, I fling myself up here. You don’t have to look at my stumpy rump if you don’t want to but my human mom says it’s ten hairs and some air is kind of cute. Ewwwww!

And that’s when I end up on top where I see I’ve got the place to myself. This is the best place for sitting and thinking and being as I’m growing, you bet I’ve got a lot of thinking to accomplish!

And then I settle into my usual, every day lounging position. I sit like this every morning while pondering life. I mean, why change a good thing if it works, right?

And if someone else wanders along and they don’t like seeing me up here thinking, well, we know what they can do and phfffft to them!

My human mom says I shouldn’t stick my tongue out at others. I’m sorry… but sometimes I can’t help myself! Tongues can’t be for just cleaning, can it? See? It’s things like this I have to think about!
OMC, Viola, that’s impressive! You’ll be at the top of the drapes next. (Don’t tell your human Mom we gave you that idea, okay?)
Viola you are climbing well for a little one! Me and mum think you have a cute little stumpy rump.
Viola, you’re an adorable little “monkey”. 🙂
LOL @ the drapes comment.
Viola, você está crescendo muito rápido, está muito bonita e esperta!
A torre é só o começo da escalada e o que você vai descobrir em seguida! hehehehe
Viola you are going to do some great climbs when you are much bigger – the world will be yours to explore. We love your little stump and it makes you quite unique.
Luv Hannah and Lucy xx xx
Oh my Viola, you are so big and strong to make it up there! It looks worth the effort though!
Viola, my mom is, and she has already said it too many times I know, completey enchanted and so in love with you.
Viola, you know you were always our mom’s favorite of the Niblets, and she can’t stop smiling watching you and your antics. You absolutely could not be more adorable. That top perch looks large enough to accommodate your through all your stages of growing and thinking.

Great climbing skills Viola we are impressed. Nice perch up there and you can see all what is going on. Have a fabulous Friday.
Best wishes Molly
Viola, you should compete in the Olympics! You are so awesome. You have the best thinking spot in the house. I bet your mom is so proud of you.
Viola! You are destined to be a GREAT philosopher! We can tell! 🙂
the critters in the cottage xo
VIola you know you will always have my heart and it does me so good to see you climbing and playing and sticking out that sweet little pink tongue!
Oh wow, that is some impressive climbing little Vi…you are going to be a mighty master climber when you get older…
Purrs,
Miss Kitty & Sisters
…and she adds:
“And THIS morning, whilst dad was in the water spray, I climbed the hanging thing outside the rainy room! He didn’t even know I was there!”
(of course we won’t disclose she wasn’t as invisible as she thought)
very impressive climbing skills Viola!!! keep up the good work and all that thinking 🙂
OMC! Viola! You are just so adorable. And that teeny tail . . . the mom hit the floor . . .
You are just too cute.
I have a ten year old version of you.
You remind me so of what he was like as a young kitten.
Oh, Viola. You are just too darn cute. and you’re well on your way to becoming a proper missile of mischief, erm, member of the household. 🙂
What great climbing skills! That is a fantastic spot to contemplate life, too. Be careful doing all that climbing–your balancing tail is, uh, missing 😉
Don’t listen to your human, Viola – raspberries are FUN!

She is too cute!!!! She is all pooped out from climbing all the way up there. We have the same post and our Jack climbs the same as Viola. Our post has been through lots of scratching too. I have to cut the long threads and pick up carpet fuzzes everyday. They do love it!
Great climbing skills little Viola ! Good job, and cute raspberry ! Purrs
What a smart and strong kitten you are Viola! Watching how you climb the “old” cat tree is very impressive. It is fun watching you grow up : )
Viola, you and that little “tail” of yours are just all kinds of cute!
Happy Friday!
>>smooches<<
Bravo, Viola! You’re such a great climber! And we love your little stumpy tail!
Viola you are growing up so fast and you are so talented! We say you can stick your tongue out to whomever you wish!
Wow Viola, getting to the top of the tower takes lots of skill, determination and spunk…good for you! Such sweet pictures of you.
Hehehe you go girl!I just love cheeky monkeys like us,xx Speedy
What an adventurous kitty you are! It will be fun to see what you look like in the top perch bed when you’re a big 1-year old lady cat.
Wow, Viola! Look at you up there! What a big strong and clever girl you are! I’m well impressed! And thank you again for helping Tessa and your human mom Carole to pick my name amongst all those who put their names in for the 2014 with the very, very handsome Quint as the cover boy. I love my new calendar and it’s in my craft work room on the wall nearest to my work table (along with my three cats, who always like to help me with my art and crafts projects). You are just so lovely and fun, Viola…not to mention very deep-thinkingly adorable.
Viola, we are mighty impressed with your climbing skills 🙂
It’s OK to have your tongue out when ya think 😉
heehee

You are just sooooo cute , Viola !!
XOXO
Whoa! You’ve got a long arm! You looked very cute scurrying up to the top. We like your little bobtail cos our Gertrude had one too and we loved her. Well, not me, but they did.
Wow very active 🙂
