August 1 - Part 2
I found Ares and cuddled him. My cats make me feel better. His fur has gotten more grey lately. He and Xena are considered senior cats now.
“Where is your sister?” I asked him. He just looked at me before wanting to get down.
I put on warmer clothes, I noticed it was getting breezy outside.
I found Xena in the park across from my house. She must have gotten out when Dakota barged into my house. I picked her up, while she decided my hair made a good chew toy. That’s when I heard it. A little scared meow. I ran across to my house, putting Xena inside before running back across to the park. I followed the meowing to a little kitten under a bush.
Old enough to be weened. No collar. She was dirty and hungry. I picked her up and took her to my house. I fed her first before cleaning her up.
After a nap, she started playing with the long forgotten cat toys in my house. Xena and Ares don’t play them at all anymore. I know in my heart I have a new cat, but I will still put up posters to see if anyone claims her. I’m still giving her a name. It’s Josie.
After all three cats were fed and sleeping, I tried to knit again. I swear. One of these days, I will be good at it!
