Im afraid the cats might be taking over the world. Well, perhaps not the world but this little apartment for sure. Sid is the brains and Joey is the muscles. I woke up with Joey sitting on my chest and Sid was at my feet. I managed to ignore them and get a couple more minutes of sleep until Sid started playing with my feet and Joey yelled in my ear while head butting me. That was the end of my sleep and an hour too early.

We hid one of their toys on the mantle. The highest part of the mantle. That's no match for Sidney. He stood on his hind legs on the lower shelf, reached up with his left arm and grabbed the toy with his paw.

The boy is leaving in a little over a week. We can both feel it getting closer and we've managed to stay in good moods for eachother. It's going to be rough. A long summer. We shall see.
