Gus

by Christine
(Crete Illinois)

Hello Everyone!

My name is Christine.I recently became a home owner and being a cat lover,thought it a good time to get a furry companion.My timing was purrfect.
Within a week of moving in I noticed a grey adult male checking out my property.He came around frequently so I began setting food out for him.

At first,he'd run if I came out to give it to him and I never saw him eat.I would just find the empy dish the next morning.This routine continued for a few weeks.I began leaving the dish on my porch instead of underneath it and sure enough my grey hungry friend was coming up to feed.

Eventually he allowed me to pet him and one glorious day he jumped on my lap while I was sitting on my patio!

The rest,as they say, is history.Gus(he looks like a Gus!) is now living in my home,is using the litter box with no problem and playing with the toys his human got for him.We are a happy couple.

Getting ready for our first trip to the vet,so purrrhaps one of us(him) is not going to be to terribly happy for a short period of time.

I am also very happy you found Gus - or the other way around. I think you two were meant for each other.

Gus must have been used to people before, because he jumped to your lap... I can imagine how wonderful that must have felt, to win his trust.

May be that Gus is not overly happy about the visit to the vet, but you do the right thing to take him there for a check up. Give him treats after he has been a good boy :) (And I am sure you are understanding even if he isn't. You never know what his past has been, and maybe he has even been to a vet before.)

I hope you have many good years ahead of you!

Leena :)

Leena's Books

Tutankhamun

This book travels with the King Tut - Treasures of the Golden Pharaoh exhibition on his world tour of ten cities from March 2018 onwards

Tutankhamun: In My Own Hieroglyphs tells the story, for older children, of the life and afterlife of the famous young pharaoh in his own words. Tutankhamun tells us about the trouble he got into as a child in Akhenaten's palace in the new city of Akhetaten, and how he became a boy pharaoh. As we learn, his life changed a lot when he died as a teenager, and long years of boredom started in his tomb with only his pet monkey Fingers and his treasure for company. He did meet some of the Egyptian gods, of course, and had fun scaring off tomb robbers, but it was mostly rather dull. Then one day, some new and strange people, including a Mr. Howard Carter, arrived and began to take all the treasures out of his royal tomb. Fortunately, through the eyes of his beautiful golden mask, Tutankhamun, could have fun again traveling around the world

Mr Mummific

An ancient friend of mine, Mr Mummific dictated a book about how he became a mummy - and I was his scribe and artist. The book is available at Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk

On my other website www.ancientagypt101.com he continues his stories about life in ancient Egypt.

Another hilarious adventure for children with Mr Mummific, the mummy with attitude. He now tells the story of his mishaps, misunderstandings and misadventures as he leaves his tomb through the False Door to embark on the complicated and dangerous journey to the Afterlife aboard the magnificent Ship of Millions. 

Find the book at Amazon.com  and Amazon.co.uk

The Nephilim Quest Series

The first book in an epic fantasy series based on human mythology. The search for the mythical Watchers, the angels who fathered the Nephilim, the half-angels. A story that moves on three levels - our times, ancient Greece and ancient Egypt.
