We volunteered to cat-sit Jules while Aunt Marissa and Uncle Casey were on a cruise. I thought it would be a good test to see if we are ready for a cat. We are not. Or maybe I should say Olive is not. She spent most of the time chasing Jules trying to grab her tail and yelling "Juey!!" Jules spent most of her time in hiding. She started running away as soon as she heard Olive's voice. She was more tolerant of Hannah. But she was most happy to sit on my lap at night when she knew the girls were in bed. The girls loved having Jules at our house and I was surprised by how low maintenance she was, but I think we'll remain pet free for another year or so.
Total numbers- 3 scratches (1 for me and 2 for Olive), 2 bites (both Hannah), 2 girls who are in love with cats. Their new favorite game is crawling on the floor and pretending to be kitties. Olive says "You Mama cat." And every cat she sees is now "Juey." We're ready to catsit again!
