They became friends, but Star's best friend is Gracie, our dog. Gracie treats Star like her pet. They wrestle, share food and snuggle together. This is Star now...
We had not seen Star for a few days. Last night he came home with this funny laminated note tightly taped to his collar, and quite a few pounds heavier.
It says, "You have a very nice cat. He comes to visit me most nights. The other night he woke me up at 3:00 am wrestling around the living room with my cat and his bell is very loud on wood floors. I don't know what his name is, so I just call him Tinkerbell. I'm pretty sure he doesn't know I'm making fun of him. I have pet doors and he just makes himself at home. He won't go near my wife, but he lets me pet him once in a while. Anyway, I don't want to scare him away or shoo him home cause I don't know which way home is, and he's not talking." Then on the back of the note it give the author of the note's name, address and phone number.
I called the number and it turned out to be Jerry, the guy that lives directly behind us. We exchanged a few cat stories, laughed, and I told him how much I enjoyed his note. My plan now is to keep Star inside. Lilly's plan is to change his name to Snowball. We will see how long both plans last.
