someone’s just making sure that i’ve seen what she left, a gift is no good unless it’s acknowledged, right? and it was rather like that, her coming over and sniffing it and then meowing at me until i gave her a good rub and thanked her. and she didn’t even take a piece for herself, other than possibly the tail. how kind is that? (especially kind as it means i don’t have to worry about finding anything, er, “magically reappearing,” say on the living room carpet.) she’s keeping us fed AND protected. can’t ask for more than that! now we’ll just have to make a big show when we clean it up. maybe that will be adj’s job–i’m better at the treats and cuddling.
