Velvet was looking all adorable and sweet before I took this photo. I think if the first two had worked (Little Lady likes to change the settings and there was no flash) she wouldn’t look affronted. At least I think that’s a good word to describe the look on her face. She was affronted that she had to sit there as I took another photo. Sometimes I think Velvet feels as if she has to put up with us even though we give her food, water, shelter and love when she demands it. Oh yes, and a clean litterbox of course. We can’t forget about that. We also save her from Dusty when he chases her around, jealous that she still gets to eat dry food and he doesn’t (he’s the only cat I’ve ever known to hate wet food).
You’ll also notice how messy the room is and Little Lady seems to get upset when Velvet knocks things down. Why does it matter if her room is already a disaster? I had her clean it yesterday in order to go over to her friend’s house. It’s still a bit of a mess but she did most of it. I can make her finish it when she gets home. The Little Lady’s room is Velvet’s sanctuary from Dusty for the most part. She can go in there and we can close the door and she feels safe and happy. Dusty does get locked up when he chases or stalks her and she gets to roam free when that happens but she’s more happy being in the window napping.
Oh to be a kitty…
