I just had to tell ya'll this 'cause it is too cute, and, for me, quite
heartwarming...  In June it'll be 3 years since we took in feral Tucker boy
and shy scaredy-cat Robin and just now in the last week these two boycats
have learned how to play with each other.  Talk about a milestone,
especially for Tucker.  When we first took them in, neither one of these
boycats knew what or how to play with another cat -- probably just too busy
surviving to have had the luxury and indulgence of playtime.  And it's taken
Tucker all this time to figure out that one of the best "toys" a kitty can
have is a good wrestling match with another cat with claws sheathed!

These two boys have discovered the
pin-down-and-wrestle-while-rolling-around-on-the floor maneuver since last
week and they have spent major amounts of time happily PLAYING with each
other!  For me it is such a joy to watch because they have both come so very
far from when we took them in.  And then it is funny as heck, too, because
these two vocalize like crazy while they are rolling around -- Tucker chirps
and trills constantly in response to Robin's efforts at pinning him down and
Robin kind of quacks and sqawks with his low-voiced "Rah, rahs" back at
Tucker.  It is a crack-up!

I have a few photos on Celeste's camera I'll try to post later today.
