Sparkler has her pretty-much regular cuddle sessions getting up on the couch by me for petting as I watch the TV news. If anything, I wonder if Galaxy is a bit jealous of her!

Galaxy got on my lap again about an hour ago, stayed for a bit!!!

She has some rather big mats in her fur on the right side close to her rear end (some on the left, too, but not as many or as bad). I don't know how best to tackle those. I don't want her to start thinking I'm not to be trusted after all if she gets on my lap!

I touched them briefly and lightly, tried to gently pull the edge of one of the big ones a bit apart. She accepted that, but I don't think she would accept much more than that, at least not at this point.

Any suggestions out there?

Thanks from Galaxy and me! And Sparkler too, of course.
