Indigo doesn’t like the other cats, but she likes me. She has decided to show me in another inconvenient way.
At night, she always sleeps next to me. Right next to me. She likes to keep her face so close to mine that her whiskers tickle me and keep me awake. But now, she’s added something else. Indigo has taken to putting her paw on my nose or mouth.
It’s one of those actions that is probably a sign of affection. Or she’s trying to smother me in my sleep. In any case, I am loathe to restrain her, as she wants to show that she likes me, or thinks of me as a kind of security. It is a gentle reminder that I am her only friend; she purrs when she does it, so she must feel some pleasure at her display of trust. Or she’s trying to smother me in my sleep. It must be rather a lonely world Indie inhabits, disdaining the company of other animals. That’s why I endeavour to spend a little time each day with each of the cats, so they won’t feel ignored, and to let them know that I reciprocate the feelings they have for me.
Even if one of them is trying to smother me in my sleep.
I can't help but laugh. I know good and well Katie Isabella will have something to say about this action of Indigo. Good luck breathing while you try to sleep.
