Default Testing her bounds


Apache is getting more comfortable. In fact, she has started testing her
bounds.

Several times, I have caught her on counters or table tops or atop the
fridge. When she sees me coming, she runs away, apparently thinking her
spot is off limits.

I stop and tell her, as sweetly as possible that it's perfectly okay for
her to be wherever she was. She sometimes slinks back to the spot again.

Other times, she waits until I'm gone, then returns to her spot. But she
never runs from that spot again.

Apparently, she is figuring out that we spoil cats here.


Hugs and Purrs,
Mark

I wonder what could have given her that idea? ;-)
