Someday this little girl is going to admit she likes me.  I now get
acknowledged when she comes into the house, and can skritch around ears and
tail if I've been very good.  She will headbutt my foot if she is feeling
generous.

Unless she can pretend I'm sleeping.  I mean this morning she had to know I
was awake.  If I hadn't been when she got started, I certainly would have
been when she got done.

Jake has spells when he just has to kneed on somebody soft.  Usually me, and
especially if I'm wearing something fluffy like a sweater.  He will jump up
and start working his claws in and out with a look of pure bliss on his
face.  Molly has watched this from a distance and you can see the little
wheels turning behind her eyes.  What is he doing and why is he enjoying it
so much.

This morning the litter was clean, the food and water were fresh and the
back door was opened.  She came in and jumped up on the bed any way.  Starts
walking around on me and poking and prodding like she wants something.  I
keep my eyes shut and stay very still.  She tries working one foot just a
little.  Tries another spot that is even softer.  After a few attempts, she
tried it with both front feet.  Keeps checking for a really good spot.
Thank God for the nice fluffy blanket over me or I'd be covered with little
bitty pinholes!  She must have kept it up for a good five minutes, then came
up near my face and rubbed against me.  I talked to her a bit and rubbed her
ears where she can't reach.  Then she took off and is back to pretending I
don't exist.
