This
is my daughter's cat Knuckles. She is so named because of the extra
toes on each paw. She was adopted along with her sister Turtle seven years
ago. Even though everyone in the house gets to give Knuckles the "Good
morning" pat on the rear, it is my daughter that has bonded with the cat
in a best friend type of relationship. It is her lap that Knuckles
graces nightly.
While the rest of us will praise her feline beauty as she enters the
room in hopes of an elusive walk-by, my daughter will just call her once
by one of her many nick names and that ensures a leap on the lap and a
squeak of recognition. They are inseparable. They go to sleep together
at night and fumble downstairs together in the morning. Napping on the
couch is like a team sport, and Knuckles always approves of the
schoolwork by sitting on the papers.
While she is a house cat, she does get the occasional reprieve of being
supervised on the back patio where she can roll in the warm rays of the
sun until contented, dine on fine grasses and hunt the wild garden
insects.
I can think of no better companion than Knuckles. A true friend.
