One of Peanut’s favorite activities is to go hide somewhere and take a nap. I think that’s the dream of just about every adult these days. To be able to sleep in peace and quiet without any interruptions or catastrophes would be right at the top of most of our lists.

I say hide and seek world champion, but that’s only in her mind. She thinks that if she can’t see you, you can’t see her. But usually there’s the telltale lump under the bed covers that gives her away. Or it’s all the pillows from my bed knocked askew.

Every now and then, she really does hide. I have no idea where. My guess is that she has access to some sort of wormhole or portal to another dimension when she really wants her privacy. Either that or she’s sporting an invisibility cloak a la Harry Potter.

Basically, she likes to be covered up. Whether it’s underneath blankets or behind pillows, she loves her an enclosed space with just enough room for her and her whiskers. I suppose that’s a cat thing rooted in their need for safety from predators out in the wild (or dust bunnies in the house).

One day, I may just sit her down and have a heartfelt talk about why she does what she does. Until then, I suppose it’s anyone’s guess.
