On the Adorability of Howl

The blow up mattress was rolled up and standing in the corner of the room as of 11am. By 11:30am it had slid and fell on the floor in an s-shape. Howl walks into the room and stops. His ears, eyes and whiskers focus intently on the black rubbery form in the corner of the room. He leans as close to is as possible without moving his backlegs. At one point...someone...picked up Howl and put him on top of the shape. Like a spring, Howl bounced from the object to the other side of the room. Where he continued to give all of his intention to this intruder. At one point, someone else puts him on top of his tent tower so that he can survey the mattress from on high. But, when he jumps off, his tower falls ONTO THE MATTRESS!!! SOMEONE SAVE HIS TOWER!!!

Finally, the mattress is picked up and put away in the closet. Howl sees this but does not believe it is gone. He continues to check out that spot for the next hour. Then, he starts asking for sympathy. He comes in and mews, asking for comfort. I pick him up and put him under the covers, where he sulks, then eventually comes to the top for a long nap. By that afternoon, his tent tower has taken the spot of the mattress, and he is still wary that it might have snuck into the lower platform. Like a good little soldier, he keeps a look out for the rest of the night before going back on it.

Oh Howl sounds adorable. I will have to scour your site to find a picture of him. (what a great name too!)

Thanks! He and Sophie are named after characters from 'Howl's Moving Castle.'

I think if you click on the 'picture' or 'pets' tag, a lot of their pictures should pop up.

I looked! Oh they are both sooooo precious. Do they have any maine coon in them?

We once fostered a feral cat for a year until she thought it time to move on. Kitty Lou looks alot like your two cuties!

Wow!! They do have the same coloration! I don't think either of them have coon - but who knows? They were both strays.
