Me with Grandma Fey!

Me with Grandma Fey!

4:26pm June 10, 2014

Fey is meowing.

I think it’s because Rick is supposed to be here in ten minutes.

Sometimes she gets very disturbed by schedules, and starts yowling about 10-30 minutes before something is supposed to happen.

At night she gets crunchies before people leave.  Different people leave at different times due to differences in their personal schedules.  I have four different night staff.  She has memorized the time each one gets here and leaves, and gets very upset if for some reason the schedule is different.  Especially when it comes to getting her crunchies on time.  (If she thinks someone is leaving without giving her her crunchies, she runs around the house yowling at the top of her lungs as if she’s being tortured or something, and rubbing up against people and generally looking panicked.)

slepaulica asked: My elderly littermate cats are sleeping in exactly the same position, same orientation, lying on the same side, exactly the same, except one is sleeping on the bed and the other is sleeping some distance away on the chair. They are curled in a circle with all four paws and tail together, one forepaw draped over the other paws and tail holding it all together, and their head upside down. fast asleep both of them. apart, yet connected. connected, yet apart. They love each other so much.

I love elderly cats.  And I love littermates.  So elderly littermates are wonderful.  Littermates who have had all that time to grow old together and become part of each other, and the love between them, that’s just wonderful. <3

Intense Feysnuggling.

Fey being a snugglepuss today.  In the last picture she heard the phone ring and that made her ears go back.

Fey being a snugglepuss the other day.

Fey is lying next to me and giving me big-eyed worried Looks again.  I wish I knew quite what was going on.

Slightly irritated snuggling. As in, she&rsquo;s snuggling, nuzzling me, and purring, and lashing her tail and being pissy, at the same time.  I think she&rsquo;ll probably bite me and run off in a minute.

This is the look Fey has had on her face a lot today.

I just had an in-depth conversation with Fey.

I wish I knew exactly what was said.

She seemed worried about something, and wanting reassurance.  Every time I looked at my computer screen she’d paw at my arm and we’d nuzzle again.  And again.  And again.  

Now she’s curled up next to me purring.

But there was a lot said there, that can’t be translated.

And the last of the Fey super snuggle pictures.  The last photo is what she’s doing right now.  Every time she nuzzles my face, it’s so gentle, and that means she’s in a particular mood that is rare and wonderful.

More of the Fey supersnuggle.  She’s sitting up now, but still in my arms.  She’s now, as I write this, sort of in a more relaxed version of the kitty loaf posture, nuzzling my face repeatedly.
