We have two cats. For any cat lover, you understand what that means. Twice as much cat food, twice as many litter boxes, twice as much noise. BUT, if one of the cats is a 20 pound tiger tabby, we’re really talking about the equivalent of three cats when it comes to cat food. This big guy eats a LOT. And I’m very afraid that if we don’t keep him fed, he’ll end up eating the other cat, a dainty 10 pound calico.

When we got the tabby from a shelter, he was thin and pitiful. Shy and scared. Didn’t make much noise, just hunkered down in the nearest corner. Now he’s plump and confident, except when it comes to the play-fighting he does with the other cat. She always wins! He’ll act like he’s going to just smack her across the room, then she’ll smack him instead, and he runs. I don’t think he knows he’s twice her size!

We love our cats, but they can be a trial. For example, even though we provide them with fresh water daily, they hop up on our bathroom sink and demand to have the faucet dripping for a drink. And of course, we comply. Who said, ‘No one owns cats; cats own us.’ ? Whoever it was is very wise. They boss us around mercilessly.

I don’t know about dog lovers, but I do know that cat lovers are a breed apart. We are weak-willed and easily led. Lead on, cats!
