"Clock Watcher"
Gypsy Rose, a stray, came into my yard one day, climbed up to the porch, barged right into the house, ate and went to sleep on the sofa, never to leave again. Alpha cat. She brought a friend she picked up along the way who was obviously more frightened than herself and who stayed in the yard crying sadly for her. She never paid much attention to him again but I coaxed him into the house and called him Talker.
I feel Gypsy Rose has lived with me before because she was so glad to see me. She so obviously thought she was coming home at last. She truely expected me to recognize her and she clearly recognized me. She is the smartest of all of us so she may know something we don't. And of all the pride, she is the one who will not go very far outside (when we could go outside) except for Talker who now weighs a billion pounds and rarely leaves his cat bed much less goes outside.
I learned about Gypsy Rose's little quirks (and there are many) over time. The first thing was her very passionate feeling that paper should never, NEVER be alowed to move.
Always one to immediately attack MOVEMENT of any kind-obsessed with paper, especially moving paper,- Gypsy Rose has found a new interest.
She is bored with being confined to the house and suddenly noticed the top of the bookshelves. I saw the moment it happened and I saw the light bulb go on in her little cat brain. She was staring at them. I tried to convince her to choose the least cluttered to jump up on but Gypsy Rose gets very fixed on doing it her way so up - up - up she went.
Seeing she was ok, I got busy with other stuff.

Looking up - I saw Gypsy Rose had discovered the second hand on the clock.
