WAFFLES: Hey Boss! Remember when I was small like this? Everyone said I was SOOOO cute.
The ladies, they'd go on and on and on and –
KATIE: Waffles, there was plenty of cute here LONG before you moved in.
About Today's Photos
Today's photos date way back to December 2012 for Waffles and December 2005 for Katie. Hard to believe, Miss Katie is 11 years old. Some would call that a senior, but she begs to differ. And the orange crush, Waffles, is now 4 years old.
According to Katie, the last 4 years have been the longest, albeit most interesting, years of her life.
Truth be told, after 4 years of patty cake play fighting, Katie and Waffles show more and more signs of being comfortable around each other. Sure, Waffles has his annoying-little-brother-moments, but he also shows great respect for Katie. It's clear to everyone at the Townhouse that they're most comfortable when they have each other. And Glogirly. She makes for a great buffer.
I think you two have things worked out between yourselves, and you know what? It sounds to me like you get along better than the two cats my human had in the 1980s and part of the 1990s - they loathed each other and barely settled into an uneasy truce. When the older cat died, my human says the younger cat was all but dancing on his grave! She's glad we all get along okay, although we are not cuddle buddies.
ReplyDeleteEveryone here almost gets along but Harry and Snowy are AT WAR. I am despairing of their ever tolerating each other.
ReplyDeleteOh, Miss Katie, you are but still a youngin' in my old lady Spicy Marie's 21year old eyes. Always embrace your youthfulness little lady! And remember Waffles keeps you young! 😉
ReplyDeleteI'm a jealous boy I never let any kitties getting close to my pawrents so I think you guys are doing great !
ReplyDeleteKudos to both
=^x^=
Miss Katie is the same age as Vashti!!!! And she doesn't think she's a senior either!!! But we (Jonah and Vashti) don't have quite the same relationship as y'all do...... so glad fur y'all!
ReplyDeleteYou guys were such cute babies! We're not best friends, but we live peacefully.

You both are cute in your own ways :) Not one more than the other ... just different!
ReplyDeleteYou know we all just love both of you over here. You two are looking extra adorable in the pictures today. Katie - we are NOT seniors! We are just adults - right? You and I are the same age, and I have plenty of play left in me.
ReplyDeleteYou guys only get better looking with age!! Hope you mom is over her cold!

Everything is better with Glogirly. It is interesting to see their relationship develop. Must be Katie had realized the return policy has expired. :)
ReplyDeleteHmmm sounds awfully familiar

It sounds like they are growing into each other. :) Wally is with Katie...at 13 they're calling him a senior...but he's not planning to slow down soon.
ReplyDeleteWe love how your relationship develops : Waffles is more respectful, and Katie more patient (or is it resignation ?). We're not sure Katie feels like a senior yet ! Purrs
ReplyDeleteAllie: So Katie, you're saying it actually CAN get better? *dubious look at Faraday*
ReplyDeleteTime flies when you're having fun and we think Katie and Waffles have been having fun...they just didn't want us all to know it.
