marco, the cat.

i have successfully transferred marco, the cat to bloomington. getting him here wasn't as scary as i thought. of course, he cried his god awful screeching noise for awhile, but it didn't last too long. although any time i would turn up the music, he would cry louder. he was trying to aggravate me.

about 50 miles into the drive, i stopped because a bird hit my car. yes, i am quite serious. i wanted to to check to make sure there wasn't a dead bird on the top of my car. when i stopped, i decided to let marco out of his carrier. i am a softy, i guess. since he was being so good, i let him stay out. he just crawled up on the passenger seat next to me and fell asleep. when i got to bloomington and opened the carrier again, he got right in too. crazy, kitty!

being in the apartment has been an interesting journey for him. he stayed under the couch all day when we got back, 2PM and onwards. he wouldn't eat. for awhile, he was even growling and hissing like he does to sissy or shaun. i left him alone. then this morning, i went to pet him and he actually let me touch him! success!! he has since started to eat, and he will come out from the couch ever once in awhile. he was in the bathtub rolling around like a maniac at one point.

he's getting there. i actually feel like we get along better right now than ever before. crazy, i know!
