The kids are alright
Yesterday, Zoe was still feeling very cautious and wondering what the heck was going on, new place, new person, new cat. That's a lot of new things for one little girl to assimilate, so she spent most of the day snoozing on the sofa.
This morning, she and Mal are doing a bit more of the jostling for power. I have a strong suspicion Zoe is going to win this war. Mal is allowing her to set the rules, and I have twice now seen him roll over and expose his belly in her presence.
Zoe is also proving to be a very competent hunter. She has already destroyed Mal's fishing rod toy by chewing through the cord and detaching the feathered end. I'm going to have to watch out for my shoe laces with this one. I am also going to have to unclutter all the high surfaces that Mal can't reach, because Zoe is lightweight and already proving to be a superb jumper. She made the leap from bed to dresser top with no signs of difficulty this morning, something Mal always wanted to do, but rarely managed, even in his much thinner days.
Poor Mal. He just looks so perplexed by this whole situation.
