My Cat, my friend.

I feel bad when I yell at Remus lol. Sometimes I think I holler at him more and more lately but now that I'm thinking about it, I think his mischievous behavior is more of a sign of spring than anything else. Some days I think it gets to me more because of job stress but now that I realize it I think I wont yell as much lol. Most of the time a stern "Get DOWN!" gets him motivated. I really do love my boy, he actually got me into liking cats. Before I got Remus I wasn't much of a cat person...now I like them more than most people . I guess I was feeling kind of melancholy yesterday...and Remus being his normal Remus self hopped on lap and was happy to let me pet him for a while. Since I've been so busy it has been a while since I just sat back and gave him a few good scritches. Thats what I mean about taking him for granted. He is getting to be a loner in his old age and he doesn't beg for attention like he used to. Spook and Hoodini tend to take up more of the lap time.
Maybe I'm noticing he's not his younger self...but he is still my buddy.

I know what you mean....when Charles and Wally (both RB) were youngsters they probably thought their names were NoNo and StopIt.....
That was at a really stressful time in my life...good news is they both lived long, happy lives and my stress level went down....

I love my boys and can't imagine my life without them. Still, Ming can scratch the furniture something awful and I have yelled at him when he does that because I have all kinds of scratching posts in the house. I feel kind of guilty because he is just being a cat. I will try to be more patient, he's a really sweet cat who brightens up everyone's day.
