Favourite swing reinstated
6 April 2012
Posted by on I have made some changes in the Manor. I used to change the layout fairly often before, but now Atilla has her lump, I am more inclined to keep things mostly the same as she has tried & tested ways of getting about.
Having said that, I decided to return the ttmss swing. This was originally taken out as I felt it was having a detrimental affect on the puddings’ feet so it was only available sometimes outside the Manor. However, now it seems that feet are the least of Atilla’s problems so I have reinstated it, in place of the Alan swing. It is now the preferred place to poop from.
Alongside that change, I also fitted a ladder up the back wall of the Manor as a way of introducing horizontal climbing bars where the vertical bars are. (You can see a bit of it to the right in the photo above). The vertical bar sections are quite long & sometimes Atilla struggles to get up them & when she pauses for a moment, she slides down. I am pleased to say I have seen her use the ladder.
As an aside, Raspy’s swinging perch is still in the Manor. I did take it out recently for about 5 minutes but felt drawn to put it back. It is almost like a little shrine. Apart from an initial three or four occasions when I saw Cagney go on it briefly, it has not been touched since her passing.
