There must be some cat lover's out there reading my blog. Don't you just love those elegant creatures? I love this saying which fits all cats, "When in doubt--groom." I love my Fab Four. They bring me such joy and comfort. I realized the other morning at four when I went to the bathroom and they all came in from various parts of the house where they had been sleeping, to sit in the bathroom with me, that I was indeed what people would refer to as "the cat lady". I don't know when or how it happened, but that's what I am.
So they sat in the bathroom with me--watching me, yet interacting with each other. I am after all, their Goddess. I provide food, shelter, and love daily. Their lives revolve around me. So they sat and waited to see what I was going to do. I went back to bed and they all settled back in where they had been before I got up. Except Sammy. He decided he would come to bed with me and he jumped up on the bed and settled in on the pillow on the right side of the bed by my head. It's always the same side. Cats don't like change you know. They stick to a ritual religiously. I have put him on the other pillow just to see what would happen. His tail twitched in annoyance and he came back over to the right side. So much for that experiment. Did you know if you just move their litter box or food dish by a mere six to eight inches in any direction, it's a MAJOR thing to them and they need to go to therapy?
But I love them, silly quirks and all. They love me unconditionally in their quirky feline manner. I know that. And on the special occasions when they all decide to sleep with me and they take their various positions on the bed with me and they start purring, well....let's just say I don't need a sleeping pill. That purring from all of them soothes me and makes me relax. I turn off the television so I can hear them better and all is okay with the world. Perhaps we should all listen to cats purring. It sure can't hurt. XOOXOX
