Remember meeting our new neighbour, Marcel?
He’s growing up fast. getting bigger, and cheekier. He sometimes pops in to see what we are up to, have a prowl around, or maybe find a scrap of paper that he can knock around our tiled floor.
The other day he popped in for a bit of R&R from the snow and cold. I was downloading photos and yes he just had to come and help me.
Hmm, what’s that
Ooo look it’s dangling down
I wonder, if I stare it out
No. Ok I’ll ignore it for a second
I bet I could
Jump up on it take it by surprise
Heave!
Humph, it doesn’t move then
Oh well, you win some
What a darling little guy! 🙂
a naughty darling !
When they say “playful as a kitten” we know why!!
Oh yes, everything is a game for a kitten!
He is so adorable! Lovely photos – you reminded me of what my two cats were like when they were kittens 🙂 marcel has such a cute face and I love his pink nose.
It’s a long time since I’ve had a kitten and I’d forgotten how nimble and agile they are, as well as that play manically for a while and then collapse in a heap for a snooze 🙂
He is just too adorable for words!
It looks like the little fellow has scraped some fur off of his little nose.

I see what you mean !
How cute!!
I think he is too cute for his own good 🙂
Gosh, Claire…your winter retreat has turned out to be fun in more ways than you ever imagined!
I know, there is always something to distract and entertain me!
Claire, It seems that the little kitty is stealing your heart… Are you sharing him with his owner, or could he be yours when you return home? 😉

Hi Lynda, he will definitely be staying here. He just pops round occaisionally and peers in at the window begging to come in and play for an hour here and there. He definitely knows where home is though as I never feed him (nor would I dream of it!)
What a lovely cat.
I like his expressive face, that and his big purr!
I’m surprised Marcel gave up so quickly. My cats would have batted that wire for ages before moving on to something else to bat around for a while. He certainly is a cute little guy, though.
I know what you mean John, he did give up very quickly, I think his mind is fairly scatty!
You’ve caught his expressions so beautifully, Claire.
Thank you, it’s a case of trial and erro to shoot quickly but to get the light levels okish!
I love his eyes!
Marcel is adorable!!!!
I think he knows it ……
Oh dear, I won’t share your post with our cat, Max as he the jealous type. (And usually is sitting on my lap when I use my IPad). As Marcel is a charmer! What a nice furry friend for your winter trip.
I love cats, and how they just have to join in with what you are doing 🙂
That is just the cutest kitten…you must enjoy his visits.
He’s certainly quite a character Karen !
What a beautiful little treasure. Marcel has the most beautiful and expressive eyes. I bet you could lose a lot of hours just playing with him.
He’s a great distraction that’s for sure!
Awww….just love that little face!
🙂
What a cute little guy.
Hi there, and yes isn’t he
I love kitties. They have such attitudes! LOL
Oh yes they do don’t they, and he has bucket loads 🙂
Yes, Marcel is a cat with charisma, and that first picture is adorable! A fine post.
I see you are a cat lover too 🙂
I love this little guy!
Thank you, he’s a bundle of fun, and as others have said full of charisma and charm 🙂
So lovely, so lovely, Thank you dear Claire, with my love, nia
Thank you Nia, your encouragement is always so welcome 🙂
He just keeps getting more adorable, with those round innocent-pretending eyes and his sly little tricks! I’m sure I’d invite him in, too. He’s clearly more sociable now than earlier!
Oh yes he’s getting quite brave, even dare I say it cheeky!
