Spicey's role reversal
This morning, like most mornings, there was a three cat wake-up committee
in bed. Buster was had been walking and jumping on me for a while with pointy paws, but it wasn't having as much effect as he liked. Dot cuddled and occasionally licked my wrist with a raspy tongue. Then, Spicey decided that it was her turn to try something. She scooted and sidled up a bit closer, then cocked her head and seemed to carefully check her distance. She reached out with a little mitten, but, very oddly, holding it upside-down. With her paw, she gently scritched me under the chin. Then, sat back to see if she'd gotten any reaction. I just dug the back of my head further into the pillow. Spicey re-adjusted herself, then reached out and scritched me again under the chin. By then, my mind was too blown to stay asleep, so I got up to give everyone breakfast. |

Well, I gave the vet a sick kitty, and they seem to have given me back a monster. I suspect she may have been sick at a low level before she crashed, but I didn't notice because it was subtle. Now that she's recovered, she seems to have a fluffier coat and more of a bounce to her step than I've associated with her before. Plus, I haven't been attacked since she's come back, although she's growled at me when I dared to pick her up and give her a kiss. |
