Cats & Dogs
Yesterday, Megan and Rob came by, bringing Princess Schatzi for the first time.
Henry declined to appear – he has a dim view of society in general and visitors in particular – and June retreated to the top of the stairs so she could look down on the intruder.
Adventurous Audrey, on the other hand, sat on the leather bench in front of the couch, where Schatzi was sitting between Meg and me. The cat and the dog sniffed each other, but there was no growling or clawing. Possibly all we need to do to settle that little problem in the Middle East is to have the Palestinians and Israelis come to my house. No fighting ever seems to go on here. It’s like a Mystery Spot of peace.
Later, Audrey sat on my lap, napping and purring, with Schatzi right beside me, just inches away.

Great shot of Princess Shatzi and one can’t blame Henry for not being as social with others around him, he’s still the survivor and where he comes from being social was dangerous, give him time.
The picture is actually June looking down on us all. Schatzi is my sister’s dog. 🙂
I think Henry is coming along. He’s made great strides over the past couple of weeks.
Our cats ‘ disappear ‘ when a dog comes to visit. Or, if it is a long visit…they will view the intruder from behind the railings of the staircase – at the top of the stairs.
