So Peyton has become a traitor--he
has caved to the tiny bundle of clucks, squeals, and stinky diapers. Not only
does he allow Mandy to bring that tiny person close so she can touch him, but
now he goes and seeks her out! Stella was playing on the floor with Mandy and
Peyton interrupted so he could join in on all the fun. He swished his tail in
Stella’s face and she squealed and tried to grab it. Peyton didn’t care and let
her grab his beautiful tail! Mandy kept her from putting it in her mouth, but I
doubt Peyton would have minded.
Then yesterday we were all
outside, enjoying the beautiful warm weather when Peyton went to love Mandy. Of
course she was holding that tiny person again. Mandy knelt down and Stella
grabbed at Peyton again. He didn’t flinch away or even try to avoid her
touches. Instead Mandy put Stella on Peyton’s back and he pranced around like a
proud horse! Disgusting! Disgraceful! We are cats not pack-mules! Meow!
If I want any attention in this
house I have to seek Mandy out, but I’ll only seek her out when that tiny
person won’t bother us. After Mandy put her in bed last night I joined Mandy on
the couch and snuggled her for a while. Then I helped her make Sam’s lunch and
clean the kitchen. That’s all the time with Mandy I can enjoy anymore. I’m not
sure what I think about this. Perhaps that tiny person isn’t so bad if Peyton
will accept her, but she is so noisy and rough. I guess it gives me something
to think about.
