Shadow

This morning I saw Shadow had polished his plate off and finished both kinds of food I had left for him. He ate much better for me today than yesterday! He met me in the kitchen, while I got his plate ready. Shadow followed me to the pantry to pick out a new can of food. He was happy to eat a fresh batch of his prescription food right away for me. He nibbled, while I cleaned his box. He came and sat on my lap a bit for some attention. He would take breaks to go eat a little more for me. After he ate some of his yummy food, we played with some of his toys. He chased after the stick toy as I moved it around for him. He tumbled around trying to catch it. Then, he took off down the hallway. This evening Shadow had left the special diet food alone, but ate everything else I had left. He ate right away once I got him some fresh food. He was being a little spunky tonight! He crawled up into my lap for awhile, then thought he'd give my arm a lick. Then I saw that look in his eye... as he started to try and give me a love nip. I was too quick for him though! Haha! I got out his feather toy and we played with that instead. All the while, he kept taking some food breaks, like a good kitty. Shadow would occasionally disappear down the hallway today. One time, I decided to go see what he was up to. Now I know why! He was sitting in the window, soaking up the warm sunshine. I gave him a pet, then got him a little more food before I left.
