The other morning, something unusual happened.
Relic came in after his early morning romp for breakfast (which is not unusual), but instead of immediately heading back out after stuffing his face (which is the norm unless its raining), he headed up to bed for a nap.
Because this was out of the ordinary for him, I went upstairs a short time later to check on him. Burton was hot on my heels – which is also not unusual, that boy is my furry little shadow most of the day.
But when I sat on the bed beside Relic, Burton immediately jumped up and snuggled in beside Relic.
Now Relic is not normally a snuggler, but as you may recall, he does let Rupert curl up beside him at night. But Burton… while Burton loves to snuggle with people… he has NEVER snuggled with the other cats. Even when he was a kitten.
But just look at that.
Cats are weird!
You just never know with animals do you? Just when you think you’ve figured out how their brains work and what they will do, they surprise you. They are such sweet looking cats.
Blessings,

Cats are so odd. I am so over kitty drama at the moment. This isolation thing has brought out the worst in all of us I am afraid, especially my furry friends. I know it’s my fault. I’ve spoiled them from all the attention and now they thing they run the joint.

As soon as you think, “oh, that cat doesn’t do that!”….they’ll go ahead and DO IT!
Contrary, aren’t they…and we love them to death!

What an adorable photo of the two guys! There was probably a reason for that change in behavior but nothing we mere mortals would know.

Is Relic feeling okay? I worry when cats do things that are out of the ordinary.

Just when you think you have them figured out, they change the rules.

I’m glad you caught the moment for posterity because they might never do it again! lol
