My Brigitte has been gone two weeks and I'm still missing her immensely but Arnie is missing her more than me, I think. On Wednesday, Alex and I went to the local kitty shelter to see who was in need of a forever home. There were so many beautiful little fur faces there! We're not quite ready to take the plunge but we're looking. We went back today and looked some more. One cat, a large older female, took a real liking to Alex. She climbed right up into his arms! She clearly did not like any of the other cats there and wasn't overly fond of the other people either but she sure loved him! I think if she showed at all that she could get along with other cats we might have taken her home but I'm afraid she will terrorize poor Arnie and, well, this was his home first, y'know!
I think Arnie is a little conflicted with Alex here now. He loves Alex, no doubt about that! He loves that Alex plays with him all the time and they chase each other around the house. But he sometimes seems a bit jealous when Alex and I are snuggling. That's always been Arnie's territory! Hahah! He sits looking perplexed and finally just wedge himself between us on the couch. He needs a buddy! So, we'll look around some more tomorrow and maybe we'll find him the perfect playmate!
