I should stop calling them ingrates; they really are the best.  Kitten sleeps outside my bedroom door if I forget to leave it open for her.  She stands outside the shower and stares at the curtain for the 20 minutes I'm sudsing up.  She always gets up to come say hi when I get home from work.  It's very cute.  And Elliot spoons with me!  Seriously, I just about died the other morning when he curled up near my belly when I was laying on my side.  So cute!  :)

 

So screw the $4,000 cats, even if the furry ones make me sneezy.
