We decided to tempt fate and get a new kitten this week. Our older cat is a mellow and easy to take care of. Max has been getting really clingy though, so we thought a buddy might be nice. We had a second cat up until a year ago when she left us for the giant food bowl in the sky. A friend was fostering kittens and I fell in love with the “sweet girl.” Millie came home as a timid, little kitty and then got comfortable with her surroundings. I should have named her Fomo (fear of missing out) because she does not like to be away from the action. If she is locked in a room, she will cry until she can come play with us. She loves to play, run, purr, chase yarn, and sniff the dog. Zephyr is more tolerant of her than Max, but will side with Max when there is a debate. Max hasn’t thanked us for his new friend, but he is slowly getting used to her. He loves her catnip toy and has claimed ownership. I think it will be a few more days before all three can relax in the same room.
