ISIS and CLEO
By now you have met and heard a few stories about my 2 girls -- Boodie & Bubbles. (That's them to the right.) These are 2 calico cats that have MADE MY LIFE. Boodie came to me as a stray and I picked up Bubbles at a shelter in Pennsylvania.
You have also heard and seen my sweetheart, Ben. Wouldn't you know it, Ben also has 2 female felines whom I've gotten to know over the last year. I thought I'd introduce you to them, too. Over the weekend, I helped Ben build a pantry (that deserves it's own blog -- it *will* be a good one!) While taking a break and relaxing on the couch, catching up on Sopranos episodes, Ben pointed out Isis to me.
First I should explain that Isis i
s the ultimate curious cat. If there is a strange noise -- say, a bag crinkling in some far corner of the house for example, odds are that it is just Isis climbing into the bag. She's a big girl; She packs a lot of momentum barreling down the stairs, racing you to the food dish. I LOVE her.

He had been taking down Halloween decorations and had the big bad ghoul (which had been hanging up in his foyer and kind of freaking me out initially when I forgot it was hanging there -- all 12 fee of it) folded neatly on the floor. Good old Isis decided to curl up ... errrr ... snuggle up next to the ghoul for a nap. I had my camera and snapped that picture.
The other girl in Ben's life is "Cleo", the alpha cat. She is a beautiful, almost blu
e-gray kitty. She likes to stay up on the bed most of the day, and is kind of chatty. While Isis will let me pick her up (she's not so thrilled but tolerates me lavishing her with kisses), I don't even *think* about picking up Cleo. She's warmed up to me over the months, though. I can now sit on the couch and she might sit *next* to me. But she would rather smell and rub up against my laptop. This way, when I go home, I can transport her scent back to Boodie and Bubbles who immediately take turns smelling and rubbing up against the laptop.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Very interesting. God help us!
I have lots of catching up to do with you! Check my blog over the next few days for updates...sorry I've been away...
