MEOW

Sagan is a freak about this meowing thing... he kind of slowed down for a bit but the past two days its been a bit on the crazy side. I looked up articles about why they do it...
  1. he's hungry
  2. he's doing it because he knows i'll respond
  3. he misses something

I think I'm going to choose a mix of 2 and 3. The cat is fed plenty (unless fat boy a.k.a Elton eats it all before Sagan gets any... unlikely) He knows that when he meows i attempt to 'fix' whatever is bugging him... i smother him with affection by picking him up and flipping him onto his back and petting his belly. I don't do it every time but it's what i did when the meowing first started around the time Tara left. I think he also misses Tara (the staple in his life from October to may). i am unsure of how much affection and attention she actually gave them while she was home with them...... But whatever I'm doing is not enough.

I also think one of the cats got poison ivy oils on them... I pick them up a lot and the other day i noticed little bumps on my arm.... i have not scratched them! but they have the ivy look to them... i took Benadryl and rinse it with salty hot water when i want to scratch it. Hopefully it goes away and doesn't spread by the wedding! SATURDAY.. yikes! Mimi is getting married!

And its hot as balls.

I miss the little buffins, too. I wasn't giving them all that much love when they were home. you know Sagan, he wanted to be left alone to cruise and then he'd come in mid-day for a nap and a pet then he'd be right back out until late (as you know). Well, I hope he stops for your sanity. . . and his safety =). I know how much you like meowing cats.
