To me, the most amazing part of getting a new cat is discovering, bit by bit, their unique personality. When you first take them home, they are just cat. Day by day, a strong and unique personality is revealed, until at last, perhaps in a few months, you truly know them, and their quirks. I wish I could meet literally every cat in the world. What a fun goal that would be!
Here's what we've learned about who (the rapidly growing) Fennec is so far:
--When he decides to nap, he drapes himself over cushions and looks like he's melting.
--He's a little piglet and eats as much as he can possibly hold every time he goes near the food bowl. He also howls for cheese, yogurt, and yams. He walks around with his tummy the size of a softball.
--When you do something he doesn't like, like pick him up when he's not in the mood, or pet him when he wants to sleep soundly, he makes these hilarious little irritated grunts. We say he's making his Angry Noises at us.

Gadjo knows instinctively that the color blue matches his lovely eyes. We just got a new batch of SLOWCOLOR scarves that are cross-woven (one color on the warp, a different color on the weft), and some patterned, with stripes and checks. They're beautiful. They're not on the website yet, but will be soon! (Anyone who wants to know when they're up on the website, leave me a comment here and I'll let you know.)
As soon as we unpacked them, Gadjo hopped on top of them and waited politely for his picture to be taken.
