series of events this morning:
cat wakes up at 6am and starts rampaging around the room he's stuck in. he's still a new cat to our house so we are still acclimating him to the house by keeping him mostly in one room.
that room happens to be my bedroom, where i sleep.
text from roommate, whose room is next to mine: should i take the boy for a while?
me: has sound turned off on my phone, doesn't notice the text until 8am when i finally get up.
roommate then admits that when she got up to take him without permission, the other cat strolled out of her room like "heyyyy."
fran goes out to the main room so we closed off the bedrooms to let pepper roam and get out some of his energy.
we decide to introduce the two cats, now that pepper has been here for a week. his shelter cold is mostly gone now so chances are, he's not contagious anymore.
we open the door. fran looks respectfully, very wary, but no growls or hisses or anything. great!
pepper runs FULL SPEED at her when he sees her. why
fran fluffs up and starts growling, obviously. like, what are you doing, baby cat. what. he does, to his credit, stop in his tracks when he hears her.
conclusion: our son may be stupid.
