cats: a visitor!

[Marisol, a tiny longhaired calico, is curled up in a dark den. She’s looking directly at the camera, ears and whiskers perked forward.]

We had Marisol visit us in the house for a day! She usually lives in the cargo container with Morgyn & CJ, but they were going to be away overnight & it was forecast to be cold, so Morgyn wanted her to be somewhere warmer.

The above picture, where she’s so happy & at ease, was obviously not taken during this situation; I got it a week or so beforehand. She’s a lovely little girl who just really wants to be with her Mumma.

She did NOT like being away from her Mumma.

[Marisol is curled up on top of my blue sweatshirt and a pile of books, all on top of a set of shelves. She is glaring at the camera. She is ANGRY.]

I do feel bad about scooping her up to bring her over. She’d finally decided to trust me again after mostly not seeing me over the winter, & she reared up to rub her head on my hand, which is the MOST ADORABLE & SWEETEST THING EVER, & I grabbed her & stole her away. SO MAD.

(She did come over for love a couple times while she was visiting, but I didn’t get any pictures of _that_, I don’t want to _die_.)

She did better in general than she has on previous enforced visits, & did a fair amount of exploring, instead of just staying wedged under my bed the whole time.

[Marisol is standing on my extremely cluttered floor with her head stuck under my comfy chair. The space beneath it is also full of things. I need more place to put my things.]

But eventually it was time to stomp off & sit in the window.

[She’s stomping off, through my extremely messy room, in search of a window from which to view the world.]

Fortunately for all her Mumma was only gone for ONE night instead of NINETY THREE nights (that’ll be in August, when Morgyn goes to Pennsic).

Mom was gone for EVER ( she counted) and left her to DIE with no FOOD or LOVE and it's the WORST

Awww, teeny calico! Poor ticked off teeny calico. At least her person was only gone one night?

Heh. Spicy, sassy teeny calico. I'm just imagining the PURRRRRING when her person returned, though.
