snugglekittyToday I had a visit from a client of mine from a year and a half ago, and the occaision of the work, a very dear baby.
My cats were thoroughly frightened by the loud, erractically moving midget human.
I, on the other hand, was delighted to have the opportunity to indulge my heathen desire to EAT UNBAPTISED BABIES. She allowed me to nibble her arms, fingers, and nose, and shrieked with laughter when I told her how delicious she was. I also tickled her tummy and the backs of her knees. When I asked her if I could blow on her tummy, she said no. I said, "Thank you for telling me that. You can say yes or no and I respect your boundaries."
Possibly the most adorable part of the day had to do with my skittish cat Suzuki. The baby picked up on Suzuki not wanting to interact with her, which, of course, made her even more interested. Her mom explained a few times that Suzu was "just feeling a little shy, and needs her space." The lovely baby then curled up in mom's lap, saying, "I'm feeling a little shy." Mom said, "Okay, it's okay to feel shy and you can take as much time as you need to be comfortable." She was trying to empathize with the cat! So adorable.
I was there when that little person started! It's hard to believe it, now that she's so independent and has such a strong personality.
I really love my job.
