Cori's cat, Bob, and I have an ongoing battle between us. My friend Kasey sent me a little stuffed monkey for Christmas...it's very cute and soft. Bob thinks so, too. The first night I had it, I put it on my table in my room and he repeatedly jumped on my table and carried it off with him. However, now he has become far more sly. Last night he sat in view of it while I took a "nap" and did not make a move...just looked lovingly at it. When I got up to see if someone was at the door, he made his move. I saw another of our cats, Baby, looking curiously at something and knew instantly what had happened. Bob has a fetish with my monkey. It's disturbing. Today in chapel we learned that the monkey was the wisest animal in the jungle...maybe Bob is trying to get some advice. Anyhow, it is an ongoing battle...I think maybe he is winning.
