Elbie has left the building!

Elbie the Cat


Well, while everyone else in Vegas is looking for (and often seeing) Elvis, the buzz at our house is all about Elbie sightings! You see, Elbie took off- sort of on his own as far as human companionship is concerned-and he is only seen a couple of times a day. Nothing, on the other hand, was here constantly for a few days, but now vanishes to wherever Elbie goes to during the day. So, we don't see Nothing very often. I feel naughty, as if I've got a double negative thing going here :-). I think that Elbie is mad because we didn't fully explain the Henry the dog thing to him, you know, that Henry stays in the house, that Henry wants to be friends, etc.

Our hope is that, in time, Elbie will stick around longer than to just eat and drink.



Elbie and Nothing Reflecting


Nothing has told Hubby that he really wants to come in the house, even with Henry here. He and Henry have come very far--they've been nose to nose on a few occasions without hissing or barking. We are hopeful that Elbie won't discourage Nothing, rather that Nothing will be a good influence on Elbie so that things can get back to some sort of normalcy in our/their lives.
