I don't want to say my Madoc is spoiled, but......

When it hit 5 o'clock I asked Madoc if he was hungry. He jumped up and ran to the barrier at the den door used to keep the kittens from wandering. Now, it's pretty low because the kittens are still small so Madoc can easily jump over it. Instead he sat down and looked up at me. Yes, he expected me to PICK HIM UP and carry him over that low, easily crossed barrier.

And, of course, I did.

I guess he figures since I carry the kittens over it, and he is officially STILL, barely, but STILL a kitten, I should do the same for him.

Now Gryff? He leaps over it like a gazelle.

It's hard to believe that I've had him for almost 10 months, now. And in all that time his personality never really changed.

But he does give some lovely snuggles. WHEN he's in the mood.
