I can't believe this has happened at last!! Max and Ben are nearly two years old now - and for the whole two years, Max has hero worshipped grumpy old Melchett (14) following him all over the house and begging him to play. For all his troubles, all he has ever got has been hissing, growling and a slap round the nose from the old guy.
Tonight, Melchy was asleep on the sofa, and Max just jumped up, bold as brass and snuggled up to him - and for the first time, he was allowed to cuddle!!!!
They stayed like this for almost an hour before Melchy pottered off for his dinner. I don't know if it will ever happen again but it made me so happy as this is the first kitty cuddle Max has had since we lost Paddy at the beginning of February (Max and Ben play together, but Ben is not a kitty cuddler!)
Lovely pics, aren't they?
