Edgar is now Zorro, II. He had no problem settling into our home and was loving to my entire family. My biggest concern was with my daughter Arianna as he was already somewhat grown. Zorro has been a wonderful addition to the family. He has set up his own routine with all of us. In the morning he makes sure he gets us all out of bed when the alarm goes off. His little paws come up to my face if I sleep through the alarm. Meanwhile my husband leaves between 5 and 6 in the morning, so he does go down to walk him to the door with a sleepy face. He waits for us all to get prim and proper and then follows us down again for breakfast. He spends the days with my mom and chills and cuddles with her and when my daughter Arianna comes home from school, it is play time. Catch the fish, the ball, they chase each other. It is rather amusing. When he is done playing he goes under the dining room table and stretches out. If my daughter wants to continue to play and he does not, he swats his paw at her which is enough to give her a fright and she backs down. He has NEVER scratched my daughter or any of us. He is really a gentle and kind cat.

He likes to eat when we eat and he is always present in our company. He loves sitting by an open window or screen door to take in the breeze but has no real desire to go out which is a relief. Now the bed time routine is also amusing. I take my daughter up to wash our hand and faces, pj’s etc. Zorro follows us up watches the whole routine. Jumps up onto the bed to listen to story time and get a few more scratches behind the ear from my daughter along with a continuous purr. Then he lies with me when she falls asleep and nurses. Yes, he still nurses. The paws go and he sucks on my clothes. He always likes to have a part of his body touching your body. He usually then sleeps on the chair with his towels.

He loves to play peek-a- boo in the towels. He most certainly a catsanova! Very loving and caring about all of us. I hear him check on my daughter and he goes down to the living room and meows if it gets too late and my husband is still down there watching TV as if to say “hey, it’s late. The rest of the family is asleep and I am getting tired of waiting up for you on my watch, let’s go, it’s time for bed.”

And my husband speaks right back to him, “yeah I am coming, I know it’s late.” If my husband falls asleep on the couch, he is prime for a long nap with him as if to protect him and us all.

Needless to say we have all adjusted rather well and feel very blessed to have such a wonderful cat with his personality fitting right into our family affairs. I will need to send you pictures once I am able to get a few online for you.
