When Hili wants to come in, she jumps on the windowsill outside the room where Andrzej and Malgorzata work at their computers. Andrzej gets worried when Hili doesn’t appear in the evenings, and often goes out to look for her.
Hili: I’ve been sitting here for ten minutes and nobody had seen me.A: I was looking for you in the garden.Hili: You just sit still at your computer and I will make myself found.
In Polish:
Hili: Od dziesięciu minut tu siedzę i nikt mnie nie widzi.
Ja: Szukałem cię w ogrodzie.
Hili: Siedź spokojnie przy komputerze, już ja się sama znajdę.
By the way, her name is pronounced with long “e”s: “Hee-Lee”. As I’ve said before, “Hili” means “she’s mine” in Hebrew.
meow!
Hili’s assertiveness skills are highly developed.
About normal for a cat.
I like that about them. I like it in people too.
Hili: “Keep the faith, Dude!” 🙂
When I was in high school (late Jurassic) we had a neighbor with a tiny d-g (rat terrier) named Willy. Every night he’d come over to visit… jumping up on a bench on the porch then onto a window sill overlooking the den. He’d just sit there until someone noticed him and let him in.
Then it gets strange…
He’d hang out with us and our d-gs (Shetland sheepdogs) for a while, then when I went to bed he’d join me. According to my mother, after an hour or so he’d come back downstairs and ask to be let out.
OK, nothing to do with Hili, except for the first line in this post. I hadn’t thought of Willy in decades. Amazing how memory works, ain’t it?
I love Hili’s expressions.
I notice her paw’s still green. Is her foot not yet healed, or is the stain permanent and the fur hasn’t grown out yet?

No, she’s fine, but that antibiotic stain is persistent! It may have to fall out with the fur. There are also some permanent green footprints on the table!
Good to know!
…and you actually give me an idea. When it’s time to re-surface my kitchen table, I think, just before I seal it, I’ll find some sort of non-toxic dark stain / paint / whatever that I can set Baihu in, and have him walk across the tabletop once or twice….
Cheers,
