Today is the next-to-last day of Leon’s Big Adventure. And the intrepid moggie, moving on, encounters yet another female cat! Malgorzata provides an introduction:
Explanation first: they went for a long trek high into the mountains and there was a tiny mountain hostel containing one female cat named Kicia.
And there’s a dialogue:
Leon: Did you know that Kicia has lived for three years and she has never seen another cat? What luck that I ventured into this wilderness!
How many cats do you know that would do this?:
Can you spot Kicia? She looks smitten by Leon.
The look of love. . .
Smooth operator: All that adventure, and Leon still makes time for the ladies.
The Most Interesting Cat in the World.
That’s cool that she took Leon on his “Big Mountain Adventure.”
I’d dearly love it if my neighbor could get her cats to stop using my hydrangea as a litter box.
Buy some essence of lion shit online & spread it around…
One brand is called “silent roar” – dunno if it really works, but it sells well
When Leon smells that, he hides in the bushes and looks forward to lion for dinner.
That’s the (c-)attitude!
Cayenne pepper and garlic powder. Or dangle discarded CDs under the tree.
I think our local zoo sells it. Wonder how much it smells to us?
If it would stop our female from peeing on the sofa I could learn to live with the smell I am sure.
Guess it can’t be too much worse than domestic cat pee.
I’ve enjoyed seeing all of Leon’s mountain trekking photos – thanks for sharing them!
Ditto!
I think Leon’s Adventures could make a show. Someone should call the BBC.
How about we put some of that silent roar on the deer hunters back here in Iowa. I understand some of them put deer urine on themselves and that stuff would set them straight.
Tell them it works better if you drink it. I’d open a deer pee stand just to watch them.
Is Kicia pronounced “kiss-ya”? I do hope so.
Well…as a matter of fact….
But Baihu has yet to meet any other cats on our adventures. I haven’t the foggiest idea how he’d react…he tends to be pretty territorial when it comes to the strays who claim our property as part of their territory, bouncing off the security door and what-not. I hope he won’t be anywhere near so aggressive when he’s not on his own home turf, because I really wouldn’t mind introducing him to other cats.

Do you have evidence that Baihu has in fact hiked six kilometers through the snow?
Snow? No; he’s never seen snow.
But I’m guessing Leon hasn’t hiked that kind of distance in mountainous desert terrain in weather hot enough that his coat needed to be regularly soaked with icewater to keep him from overheating….
