My cats came to me almost immediately. I have Martini to the left of me and Holly to the right of me and they're both rubbing up against me. I guess they missed me as much as I missed them! I was only gone overnight.

This is something new. Usually, when I come home from a trip, as soon as I open the door, they start coming down the stairs, see it's me and then go running back up the stairs! "Oh #@$%, she's back!"

How affectionate they've become in their golden years. This makes me very happy. My sweet, sweet kitties. ❤️
