"Moose" the Innkitty

Moose_photos_005Hi! My name is “Moose” and I’m the resident Innkitty. I got my name because I had such large paws when I was a kitten. I guess it’s better to be a cat named Moose than a moose named Cat! My adopted Innkeeper parents rescued me from a cage three years ago and I thought I’d died and gone to heaven. Although I’m not allowed inside guestrooms, I have free roam of all the public spaces in the Inn…wow!! This place is a palace.

Moose_photos_004My typical day starts late as I prefer to sleep in later than most guests and the Innkeepers. Following a leisurely breakfast, I routinely lounge around following sunspots throughout the Inn, napping occassionally. However, when the doorbell rings and guests and luggage appear, I like to introduce myself and then escort the new arrivals to their rooms. It seems almost everyone at the Inn can’t resist petting me and playing catgames with me. Sometimes they will bring me treats and goodies and I will reward them with headbutts and allow bellyrubs.

MooseCommercial photographers always pester me and make me pose for photos. What’s up with them? Haven’t they ever seen a cat before? Oh well, I’ll gladly pose for treats ’cause I’m food motivated. I really like to gaze out the Inn’s front beveled plate glass windows as I can see the guests walking up the walkway to check-in. I can also see the guests relaxing on the rear veranda by looking thru the round, beveled window in the stairwell.

Oh well, life is good and I feel a nap coming soon…so, for now, I’ll sign off but expect to hear from me again during the Holiday Season…
