Default Bucky's Lament

Since the apartment soaking, Bucky has stayed as close to me as he can
When I am out of sight, he cries loudly (Senyah says annoyingly). At
times, he let's out what I call a "siren meow" - very plaintive and very
like a siren.

I call out to him and tell him "I'm in here, sweetie!" at which time he
comes running, emitting little meows to me the whole way. If I'm lying
back reading, he comes and lays down next to me.

Every now and then, he opens an eye and reaches out a paw to make sure I'm
still there. I will be so glad when this fiasco is all over - maintenance
men gone, blowers gone, furniture put back in place - so that Bucky and
the rest (who are dealing with it) can be comfortable in their daily
routines again.

I tell Senyah she should call out to Bucky and try to comfort him, but she
says Bucky isn't really interested in being a "Senyah kitty" (big grin).


Hugs and Purrs,
Mark



Do you have a small radio that you could leave on where he could hear the
"talk shows"? Perhaps it would comfort him. MLB
