Pets for Kevin

We don’t feature the menagerie around here very much….too many boys to write about.  But, Wiley has been front and center since he is *the* pet around here and his health has been, well, shaky recently (update:  steady as she goes on that front.)

But, Kevin’s departure has caused some reshuffling in domestic animal routines.  And Kevin has requested some pictures.  And it wasn’t hard to make some of those pictures end up here.

(We sent some video of Wiley and Daphne at one point.  But pictures of Daphne and Holly dominate.  Holly is an attention-hog and that explains why there is a lot of here.  But Daphne, well, Daphne is Kevin’s cat.  She spent about 23 of 24 hours in Kevin’s room.  His room, and Kevin, belonged to her.  Until about two weeks ago that is)

(Holly = cute AND annoying)

(so, how has Daphne reacted to the changes around here?  Our first days home were basically a meow-fest of complaints but it didn’t take long for Daphne to abandon the basement and head up stairs for long nights in the master bedroom.  She is so annoying though, that she’s forced a change in habits and the door has to be cracked now so that she can enter and exit at will….if it isn’t cracked she will scratch and meow incessantly until she gets what she wants…)

Not pictured here are the two other cats, Marino and Madison.  Will have to try and collect some photos for Kevin (and for here).  Marino could care less about Kevin being gone….Madison did spent a lot of time down there, but, again, could care less if he is here or not.
