All My Kittehs

Four cats is probably too many. If my house were any smaller, they'd definitely be too much to deal with. But I hate to admit that I love having them around. They seem to take turns being my shadow.

And every once in awhile they do cute things that just make you smile. Like just now, Gideon randomly walked up to Emma and started washing her, and she did it back. How cute is that?

All of Diana's cats changed for the better when they moved in, and especially with me being home during the day, they've really accepted me as the father figure. I think Cosmo could still do without them. She's always hissing at the boys, and more or less avoids Emma. But Oliver is too stupid to know he's hated, so he discreetly sleeps near Cosmo or hangs out near her. He wants to be her friend. But she lived her first five years solo, then with a hyperactive and sick cat for another five, then another year solo (with periods of antagonistic behavior on the part of a certain Boston Terrier who shares her name). She just doesn't know what to do with other animals.

I love having them around, and having so many helps me to try to get passed Luna's passing, which haunts me to this day, and is probably the second worst thing I've ever had to go through.
