Ace

Well, the little black cat (whom I've since named "Ace") came in the house for a few hours last night. As suspected, MF and Fatty were none too pleased; lots of raised hackles and hissing and spitting (honestly - you'd think they'd be a bit more accommodating, after all, as I pointed out to them, they were strays once .......). Ace just sat beside me on the settee for a couple of hours, purring quietly and every now and then rolling over for a tummy tickle. But later she wanted to go out (I thought to go pee) and didn't come back for a while. So we went off to bed (MF and Fatty whooping and hollering with joy that she'd gone). In the middle of the night I woke to hear "meow, meow, meow" so pitifully outside the window, but didn't dare let her in again. Gave her some breakfast this morning and the neighbour came out - a friend of his has offered to take her in. Mmmmmm, not sure how I feel about that because I know in my heart of hearts that Buff doesn't really want another cat, but I feel like I've made a special connection with Ace and I would miss her (lol - I've only known her 3 days!) Silly old fool I am.

Well, I guess we will have to see whether she's around tonight .......
