Meow

I'm the type of person who always wonders what animals are thinking or saying when they meow or bark. Last night...well I guess it was early this morning...I woke up due to jet lag. I was promptly greeted by both of our cats, Fez and Fresnel. They were completely thrilled to have somebody awake at 3 am to pet them and hang out with them and I of course was thrilled to get some quality time with my kitties.

It did make me wonder what they must be thinking about all of this. They've always known a life where I come and go because of traveling. They are typically pretty good about it unless both of us pull out the "little rolling boxes" because that means they'll be on their own for a bit. In all my years of travel I think the longest trip I had ever taken was just under 3 weeks. Most of the time it was more like 7-10 days maximum. Now I disappear for a couple of months at a time. I'm curious if they think I'll be coming back or even if they notice that I'm gone. Cats are such creatures of habit so this must be a big change for them. They seem to be adjusting well and they are developing new routines with Alan which I think is great.

I just wonder what is going on in their little kitty brains...
