Badger lately has been posing motionless and quietly mrring before small gaps \u2013 between the refrigerator and counter, the sofa and wall, the grid-covered return vents in the floor
And at first I thought he batted something under there or smelled something, so I’d open it up, but increasingly I’m getting the sense he’s run out of novelty so he’s fixating on the few parts of his everyday experience he hasn’t seen in detail
He’s also being more pushy about always being the focus of attention when he’s around, which gets irritating, I’m thinking about getting another cat so they can be each other’s companions, the original plan was to wait at least until he was 6 so they’d have more staggered lifecycles, but that was when for a while Leo was playing the “cat companion” role.
