Sable took another step forward last night. I woke about 12.30 and, on my way to the facilities, I noticed a fourth cat on the bed. Usually, there is Imogen on the near side by my head and Indigo on the far side, also by my head, and Moxy by my feet. This time, there was another cat curled up next to the Mixer. At first, I thought it was Valkyrie. Indistinct in the darkness, the form nonetheless looked too large for Valk, so I switched on the light. It was Sable.
This is the first time she has been on the bed while I was in it. Alas, my disturbance of her slumber caused her to drop to the floor. But she has not yet retraced steps she has once taken. I hope and expect her new night-time position will be, if not regular, then at least common. We’ll see.
That must have been so wonderful to see!
ReplyDeleteSince she and Moxy are getting along so well, maybe she will hop up on the bed a night when she sees he does it all the time.

ReplyDeleteThat's so wonderful. Hopefully, with Moxy's help, Sable will learn that being an indoor cat is a terrific thing.
ReplyDeleteOoh, I'm thrilled Sable was on your bed, with you in it! That's a giant step forward!
ReplyDeleteIt's nice when our cats start to get comfortable enough to do new things.
ReplyDeleteEvery small paw over that challenge line is a win!
ReplyDeleteHopefully she will try again.
ReplyDeleteI have my paws crossed and Mom has her fingers crossed!!
ReplyDeleteExcellent news! I hope that becomes a regular event for her.
ReplyDeleteOh, Sable has discovered the comforts of a nice soft bed with her human in it...to guard and keep in sight.
