Day 310: He's had it for six months, never showed the slightest interest in it, and suddenly, here's Merry in his hammock. He doesn't stay long, maybe ten minutes at most, but at least it's finally getting some use. You never know about cats. What interests them one day may be ignored for the following six months, only to suddenly rise to the top of the list again. It required some strong telepathy and a session of pointed staring to get the message through to the dense Mama that he wants to play with Cat Dancer again because it had been on the "ignore" list for weeks and I'd more or less forgotten about it. I can't fault him for his attitude. I'm the same way. I'll dedicate myself to a particular fiber art for weeks or months (quilting, for example), only to lay it aside and not touch it again for a year or more. We get bored with things easily, Merry and I, but man, when we're focused, we're intense.
