Tchoupitoulas came in first thing Wednesday morning with a dead bird. Luckily, I saw him before he'd gotten too deep into the house and when I yelled for him to leave with it, he did. Josh hypothesized last night that Tchoup brings me the dead things because he's hoping that I'll be able to reanimate them. He's always so disappointed when they stop playing and just lay there. I don't know what happened to that bird.
Then last night at 10:30pm he dragged a small bird (Josh says it was a baby) into the house. Josh got it away and put the bird outside, locking Tchoup in. This morning, the bird was gone. I'd like to believe that it was rescued by it's mother bird or was well enough to fly away, but I suspect that the bird was carried off by some other animal, like the black cat that terrorizes Tchoup.

Good Morning, in Tchoup Speak!
Tchoup brought a dead bird into the house first thing. Did he kill it? Did he just find it dead? I didn't ask questions. I just screamed and pushed him out of the house with it.
Good morning, Tchoupitoulas style.
Good morning, Tchoupitoulas style.
I have put my new toy in your box
Josh had a big box of computer equipment when he got back. Tchoup loves boxes. He managed to consolidate his love for his new toy and his love of the box into a game wherein he put the new toy in the box and pulled it out. He was in heaven. Josh promptly pulled him out in order to protect the computer equipment.
Thank you so much for my new toy
Tchoup really, really loves his new toy. Really. Loves. And there's not even any catnip.
Tchoup finds his new toy
When I got back I had about 3 new toys for Tchoup. He found his toy the same night I arrived back in Kigali and proceeded to play with it in and around the suitcase. It's basically a stuffed hamster with a feather tail.
