Oh Mr. Lee

So Nathan and I have been talking about getting rid of our cat, Lee, for years. Seriously we've gone back and forth...okay I have. Nathan would have chucked him out a long time ago. Here is the thing. I love cats. I love Lee. He's beautiful, snugly, comes when you call him, hangs out with you when you're sick and can hold his own with the dogs.

The down side is he chews! I do not know what the heck his problem is, I think it's just part of his nature, but he's left his mark on just about every thing we own. He chews the backs of our couches, the tops of our chairs in the dining room, the baby's furniture knobs, my shoes (but only when they are in the shoe rack in the closet!) etc.

We finally came up with a united front and decided to get rid of him. We aren't willing to take him to the pound as we don't want to kill him, so we were trying to find him a home. Good luck convincing someone to take a chewing cat!

It has become a mute point, however, as Katherine has fallen in love with Lee.

She loves soft things - she sleeps with her velvet blankie every night, takes naps with her giraffe blankie and has recently started to love laying on her big sheep rug.

A few days ago she discovered that Lee is incredibly soft to lay on as well! I'm not sure why on earth he allows her to lay on him (it's totally AGAINST his typical personality) but he is very accommodating and she LOVES it.

She snuggles her face in first, nose down, and then lays her head to one side and smiles while kicking her feet behind her. It's the cutest thing EVER and now Nathan can't imagine taking him away from her.
