She loves him as much as I do....

The Entomologist has been sick these past few days. Nothing major, just a nasty cough, and a fever. I don't feel a trip to the doctor is needed, only to be sent home to let the virus run its course. He will be fine.. according my my mommie-intuition.

To be able to lay on Mommie and Daddy's bed, and watch TV is a real treat for my boys. So it would stand to reason that while one is sick, that would be the most effective medicine. To have the cat join in, well, surely that is all that is needed to heal.

Fantasia is her name. She will be 18 this November. (best we can guess) The Entomologist LOVES this kitty, and its apparent that she loves him back. She will sometimes sleep in his bed with him, but when he is sick, it's as if she knows. She cuddles with him more than what is 'her' normal, and will bat her eyes if I even think about moving her. He is her human child, and no one is going to change that.. not even me.

Sweet shot, hope he's feeling better soon. Nice to see the relationship between the two. I think two of my dogs definitely know when I'm not feeling well. They don't leave my side and are much quieter.

Nice for her to be lending support. At that age I'd be hard pressed to be able to climb into bed. 8-) Hurry up and heal! Lot's of bugs out there. 8-)

Poor little guy but what a treat to lay in bed and watch TV. My cats love it when I stay in bed.

Ah, get well soon! Such a nice story. Whomever does not have a pet, does not know what he's missing.
