Happy Barinversary, Sir Edmund Charles
I've said for a long time that I prefer cats to people. I guess that's why I've stopped writing about people lately and it's been about cats. Particularly with the way I feel lately about people, I say bring on the cats.
I couldn't let another year anniversary go by.
Last year at this time I was in a down period. Between the kidneys and being sick and the rest of it, I was just bleh all time. My mother was volunteering then at the Dutchess County SPCA in Hyde Park and she told me they had a few kittens up for adoption that weren't babies but were still young.
I went with her the next day just to see them and that was that. He found me.
He had no fear from the moment he saw me in the cage. There were three of them and I would have gone nuts trying to figure which one to take but he was the first one to come running right up to the cage door mewling. I took him out and right away he was purring and playing with my hair and licking me like I was his mother. I sat on the floor with him for close to an hour and he never once tried to run away. He nuzzled, purred, played and won me over right then and there.
Needless to say he came home with me and became the Sir Edmund to the already-here Sherpa and Hillary. Of course I was a little worried about adding a new kitten to the brood but the fearless little beast I saw in the shelter was no act. As soon as he got home he was out and exploring and hopping around and playing with every toy he could find. I was sitting on the bed watching him and all of a sudden he jumped all the way up to the bed, mewled at me, curled up and went to sleep next to me until he discovered a window seat right there with a view. He was home.
Over the past year he's grown into a one of a kind cat, I am so taken in by him it's not funny. I'm the only person he really loves, Darkstar calls him the Barn Cat. Every time he sees Darkstar he hisses and shows his teeth and swats at him. It's not nasty, it's rough play but he doesn't do that to me. He tolerates my mother but he goes to bite her if she pets him too long.
I'm his person. He licks my nose and sits on the back of my chair when I'm on the computer and comes for loves and purrs. He would easily be the alpha if not for Tempy and there's just something about his tan-copper-honey colour that I find beyond cute and endearing.
He still barns out on me now and then. He does this chattering thing when he's had enough pets and I guess it's supposed to intimidate me but I find it funny as hell. His mouth opens and these weird chattery noises come out and it just makes me poke his barn ass.
His full name is Sir Edmund Charles, the Charles after my dad. He's definitely my beta and he's brought so much joy and sunshine to the past year. I can't wait for many more years of Barn Cat love!
