Monkey and Mather

So I'm sure a lot of people were wondering what Monkey would think of the newest member of our household. For those who haven't met her, Monkey is our mercurial calico, a little sweet and a little sour.

While of course we remain viligant when the two are close, so far the verdict is pretty good. Monkey has shown a little curiousity, sniffing a bit around Mather, but otherwise she steers clear. Her main jealousy centered around Mather's comfy sleeping basket -- it's clear she wanted one. So we put a nice little basket of her own out on the floor, in a sunny spot, and you can see the result in the picture.

Tonight, as we watched a movie, Mather took a nap on Emily's chest while Monkey took a nap on mine. A comfortable family.

I'm glad Miss Monkey is behaving. I think she will enjoy her own crib. Plus she must love it that people are home with her all the time. Let's see if she stays this way with Grandmather arriving soon.
