Arthur and the cat

It's been a long long time since I've posted about my adorable great nephew Arthur. The last time was two years ago when he was a teeny tiny baby who was just learning to kick his little feet. Now he's started kindergarten and has also become a big brother to KL last year. Wow! Time goes by so fast!!

Arthur went through a short phase where he was quite moody and ignored most people. The only way to get his attention back then was to bribe him with a walk to the sweet shop! Since starting kindergarten he's become a lot more playful with everyone, and aware of his surroundings and new things. He's starting to say a lot more words and is absolutely adorable when he gives you a hug, it comes with a loving "ohhhmm". It just melts my heart.

Today we had a family lunch at my sister's, and it was lovely to see Arthur running around in the garden, playing with his cousin. Then he saw something new. I believe it's the first time he's seen a cat so up close and personal. The cat belongs to the neighbour but comes over all the time. Arthur loved the cat, and immediately started to play with it.

Originally he treated it like his baby sister, stroking it gently, and even hugging it. It was so mega cute. Then he tried to tug its tail. When we told him not too, he was very good and sensed it wasn't a good idea and stopped immediately. We gave him some cat food, and he held the pellets with his little fingers to feed the the cat because that's how you eat food . I wouldn't dare to do that 😭

Then we told him to put the pellet down on the ground instead, and he did the cutest thing. He lied tummy down on the ground to watch the cat eat it, and even pointed at the pellet to make sure the cat ate it. When the cat moved around, he got up and moved around was well, always making sure he was in front of the cat to get its attention. It was absolutely priceless to see how interested he was with the cat, and how he interacted with it. So good not to share. Hope this brightens up your day in readiness for the new week ahead.

今天與家人聚會，兩歲多可愛的小侄孫 Arthur通常都是全場的焦點。 他小時候有段時間不肯跟人，要逗他玩就一定要帶他到小商店買糖菓吃。現在他當了哥哥又上幼兒班，整個人都開朗活潑了，把大家都逗得非常開心。尤其抱抱時，一雙小手攬著我的脖子，小臉貼著我的，然後發出一聲超級可愛的 “ohmmm" 簡直把我的心都溶化了！

小Arthur 今天見到隔壁鄰居的貓咪，應該是第一次這麼近距離見貓咪，覺得非常有趣。他可能還當貓咪是妹妹很溫馨在抱抱，實在太可愛呢！我們給他一點貓糧餵貓咪，然後他就趴到地上，看得出神入化。貓咪走一步，小Arthur又跟著就，仔細看著貓咪吃。我覺得小孩子這些可愛片段簡直是無價，不分亨就實在太可惜。
