Fast Friends

This is not too long after Bates arrived.  He and Cali have a special bond.  It seems she cannot do enough to feed him in sneaky ways.  Just this week the hubby sat down a slice of sour dough bread then walked off for two seconds.  He started back tracking his steps with a quizzical look on his face.  He said I thought I left it right here and the cat is there, but I don’t see it.  A few feet away on the floor was Bates and the bread.  I suspect she is so sweet and mothering to all the others because she gave birth to a litter of kittens while she was at the rescue and now she’s transferred that love to all the pups.
