I was just watching my chelsea outside, on the screened in porch. It's amazing how a pet can cheer you up if you are feeling low. I often just pick her up and hug her close..thanking her silently just for existing. She does the cutest and also the rottenest things. She will crouch on the step landing at the top, flatten her ears, thinking i cannot see her. It's so cute, and i do start to sneak up on her when suddenly she comes at me on all fours, her back arched and even her face arches. I have to always stop and laugh when i see this. She isn't a vocal cat however, never meows.. makes this cute sound when looking at squirrels or birds. She even watches tv. She plays fetch like a puppy dog. She loves to play ice hockey in the kitchen with ice from the freezer, she will come running from anywhere when she hears me getting crushed ice. She loves to chew at the mail grrrrrrr which comes in a slot. At night, although there is plenty of room in bed, she gets as close to me as possible and crowds me all night long. But i love the feel of her warm body against my legs. She knows her name, she comes with her tail up in the air, with a special kink in the tail, and makes that certain noise in her stomach. She is very affectionate, she has this way of going from hubby to me, back to hubby, then back to me..to be petted and rubs against me, or bumps heads. She loves to wash me with that raspy tongue, which tickles like crazy. She loves to steal cocktail straws, right from the glass. She goes running to the front or back door when we come home, rubbing and sniffing and following us around. She loves to trip me up grrrrr and loves to attack and grab at my ankles.. I adore her..I cannot imagine life without a furry friend of some sort. Just thought i would share why Chelsea is the love of our lives, the spoiled princess in our house. Also she knows when we are sick or in pain..she tries to comfort us..When i came home from the hospital, and was lying in my bed, because she missed me so much, she unfortunately hopped right onto my incision..But i didn't yell at her..
Why do you love your furry friend?
