Needy only-Buster
Buster's become a pretty clingy cat in the past year. Maybe it's because
he's been an only cat since Dot died over a year ago. Or maybe it's because I've been working from home for the past year. But in either case, he's developed a needier, more demanding purrsonality the past few months. He's often followed me, but now he follows me while making little meeping noises. He plays harder with his cat charmer toys than he ever has before, even though he's 14 years old now. He doesn't evict himself from my lap anymore when he gets petted, but falls pretty well asleep there. Maybe an only cat is a lonely cat. I'll try to get him a kitty friend next year. Buster and I are going to have to move out at some point later this year, as I've just signed a contract with a builder for the first phase of a renovation to adjust the layout of the house to better suit my preferences. (In this phase, a new basement will be dug and foundation repoured, a new site drainage system installed, and the structure rebuilt to safer, more efficient modern codes.) So Buster and I will be in an apartment for a few months - don't worry, my most loyal and soft friend - it'll just be like camping out together. |

I wish you and Buster the best in the temporary abode as well as the new digs (so to speak) when the renovations are done. I'm not sure about intruducing a new furry friend in that scenario but hey, I've never been in that situation. Best of luck! Jill |
