Gordy has been asking to go to Nana's house nearly every day so that he can go play with the kitties. So, since we aren't planning on traveling anytime soon, we decided to borrow one of Nana's kitties for awhile. We settled on Oscar as the best candidate as he's always been pretty happy to be outside, he's very friendly, and he comes when you call his name.
The first day we brought him home, Oscar asked to go outside, so I let him out. He then disappeared for 24 hours. When he came back the following night, we kept him inside so that Gordy could see him in the morning - very bad idea. He played and jumped around and kept me and Todd up nearly all night. Since then, we've all found our groove a little bit. Oscar sleeps outside and only whines about it for a few minutes as long as the lights are off. He comes back in the morning for some breakfast and cuddles and then he's out for the rest of the day chasing lizards and eating lemon grass. When he does come home, he comes inside for a few hours which is Gordy's favorite time of the day!
We aren't sure how long Oscar will be staying with us, but Gordy is happy, Todd is tolerant, and we are all enjoying him in some way or another for the time being.
