We have once again taken the plunge and added to our brood. After losing our puppy last December, I wasn't sure we would take in any more animals. But, alas, a cat was in need of a home....and we had a home. So, once again we are a full house again, complete with two cats.
It has been so interesting to see the different personalities of these animals. We forget that though they are not human, they do have real traits that are quite distinct. It has been fun to see that Tigger, our newest family member, is stronger and desperately wants human interaction most of the time. He has his down time, like any cat. Everyone has heard that most cats don't have owners, but servants!!! Tigger has proven to be a social soul who after the first hisses to our Baby Cow, is now sleeping on the same bed at night and during the day. Tigger is not particularly playful but is definitely attention seeking. Baby Cow, on the other hand is typical of most cats, and wants attention only when he wants it, and not at any other time. He is quite playful with "Dad" but is other wise pretty independent. He has very hesitatingly opened up his territory to Tigger. Baby Cow is definitely the "favored one" in the home, but we love them both and are grateful to provide a family for which these animals to grow and experience love and affection.
