Our two feline friends are fast friends with each other. They play together and sleep together Everyday they lie under the desk lamp on my desk when it is on - basking in its warmth as though they have gone to the beach.
By now, they are familiar with our habits. The sounds of us getting ready to go out the door. When we return, they are perched on the table by the door, waiting to greet us. Who ever said dogs greet you when you return, while cats disdain to notice you have returned? Not our two!
What happens in between our leaving and returning? Do they sigh and say, there they go again - abandoning us of warm lamps and the hope of extra cat food? Do they sulk just a bit before deciding how to fill the time until our return?
Or do they say, there they go again with a bit of glee - what can we explore in this big house? Where haven't we poked around? What games shall we play together? Any mischief we might create? How about a nice long nap in the sun streaming in a window?
Or perhaps, they say, the house is ours again. We are in charge and need to keep track of everything that happens inside and out.
I will never know. Yes I know, a person can buy some sort of web cam device so that I could spy on them. But I wouldn't want them to do so with me.
A part of their lives will forever be a mystery to me!
