Last night Bun did the cottage proud
As I was watching I’m a celebrity .Mary slowly walked in front of fire to warm her old bones
And Bun walked with her, her paw swatting Mary’s tail as it dragged on the floor.
Mary drew her teeth, for a moment then Bun let go conceding defeat
And the sisters sat together for a while, side by side
Quietly and gently
Silent Night.

ReplyDeleteWonderful x
ReplyDeleteAdaption in action, like a young sibling fooling around when it's clearly prime napping time. Can't help think Winnie may have been the glue, if still with you, bless her heart.
ReplyDeleteSeeing Mary reminded me of our Beagle when I was a kid. We had a nice gas fire grate in living room, and she and I would lean on each other to get the better warmth advantage. It is so good to see Bun gradually warming up to the dogs and I hope Weaver eventually gets there too. Some cats just really are loners.

Dear Mary, she knows that there's no need for fur flying, just a look! They're all finding their place in the pecking order. Not long now before they'll all be snuggled up together in front of the fire. You've raised your fur kids well, John! xx
ReplyDeleteMy daughter’s cat was very disgusted when she brought home our new baby granddaughter . Totally ignored them both .Last night she gently touched the baby on the leg with withdrawn claws and sat beside them both . ! Animals are so amazing xx Bernie
ReplyDeleteIt appears they've reached an understanding. Xx
ReplyDeleteLife lessons come in all sizes!

Hugs!
Such a sweet, peaceful moment.
