Looking Ahead

I think 2005 will be a great year.

We got a new cat, only 8 months old, who we've re-named Fraidy (from Freddy), because we haven't seen him since we've gotten him. He's been hiding under the bed since we brought him home and put him alone in a spare bedroom. My husband and I have taken turns sleeping in the bedroom at night to get him acclimated to our presence. He has graced us with his presence at night by jumping on the bed to get to the table next to the bed, but he doesn't let us touch him yet.

He hears the other cats and our dog, but he hasn't had the chance to be in the same room as them. He and Smokey have exchanged sniffs and meows under the door. When he feels like venturing out to other parts of the house, he'll be introduced to the other members of our "family." Until then, there will be no photos of him on the web site.

We still miss our Willie very much and Fraidy is not his substitute. Fraidy will be treated as the individual cat that he is. I'm sure he will become a loving part of our feline and canine "family."
