I
took Smokey Bear in from a broken family home and I was hesitant because I
did not really want another cat. She spent the next year hiding in the spare bedroom.
It was awkward to visit my pet by going to the bedroom only to have her get
angry with me. I soon discovered that she had been exploring the rest of the
house as I would playfully chase her and she knew exactly where the best
hiding spots were.
Eventually she warmed up to me and now she is always by my side. She is very
vocal! She greets me at the door and always says goodnight. She loves to be
brushed but only in her spot. So I will start brushing her and she runs away
but makes sure I am following her to the spot she thinks is right for the
moment and she collapses and purrs and does somersaults while I brush her belly.
I do let her into the backyard sometimes, and she doesn't go far; only far
enough to hunt down some big moths and bring them to me in the kitchen, so
very proud of herself! I love my Smokey Bear!
