Kitty - the poor thing

D has a new favorite in the house. Since we gave away his favorite dog, Dakota, D has taking a shine to Amos our cat. He likes to cuddle with kitty on the couch, tackles him under the dining room table and HAS to sleep with him at night.

Poor kitty. I know that he wasn't ready for nor did he sign up for this! D MUST sleep right next to kitty. Kitty just can't be in D's room, nope D must be hugging the poor animal. There have been many nights where I go into his room to check on him before I go to bed, and I can't get the door open b/c D has fallen asleep right next to the door b/c that's where kitty was. Probably praying that someone let him out of the torture chamber.

If kitty isn't in D's room, D won't go to sleep. He'll stand at his door and call the cat until I finally carry him upstairs to D's room. Most nights kitty will curl up on D's bed and sleep there all night, but there are times where the minute I open the door, the cat makes a b-line out!!

Good thing Amos is a great cat. He tolerates D and even comes back for more most of the time. When D is sick, kitty will lay next to D on the couch all day. It's also a good thing that cats live a pretty long time - D has at least another 7-10 years of Amos. PHEW!!
