The topic: We share our pillows with cats
----------------------------------------------

Not a problem. The other night, Oliver at my forehead, Richie behind my head, up against me, I woke up and I could hear my heart beating, rapidly in my ears. It’s a really strange sensation.

It was beating way too fast, I felt okay, but it was just going thumpthumpthumpthump. I tried to calm my breathing (although it didn’t seem like there was a problem), I’d slowly count to ten and inhale, slowly count to ten again while exhaling. Still the rapid heartbeat. Scary thing.

Then I moved my head away from Richie. The thumping stopped. It wasn’t me at all, it was him.

Cats. Gotta love ‘em.

Oliver. On a folded lawn chair by the pool, catching some warm rays.

The topic: Little Bit is coming out of her shell
----------------------------------------------

I think. *lol*

She was in the new cat chair by herself last month and didn’t run when we walked by her. She just looked at us. Enter Miss Elizabeth, who claims said chair as her own. She laid next to Little Bit and Little Bit didn’t budge. No hissing or growling at all. Nice.

A few days earlier I caught her up in the cattreehouse. Fitting since that was her special place before the tree was cut back.
