A new photo and a funny discovery

Fifi has sprouted a single white hair on her chest.




She has a few white hairs where her shaved belly has grown back in, but this one chest hair is new within the past few days. It's a nice photo of her even though the squinty eyes are saying "get that damn phone outta my face Mom."

In other news, Mr. Bee has a favorite new treat: mint ice cream. I am a big fan as well and let him have a few licks off the spoon. He is so sweet, mannerly, and patient about it that I cannot refuse him.

hairs in the same spot. And he loves, not ice cream, but whipped cream, so I get the spray cans as a little treat.

I have a cat-a-day calendar, and the pic the other day looked just like Bee!

Over the years, the white area gradually grew, and by the end of his life it was surrounded by a sort of halo of scattered white hairs around the edges. As he got older, he sprouted other random white hairs here and there as well. I think a lot of cats probably do that, but it's most noticeable on the black ones.

Looking at this picture reminded me of Logan, and that made me smile.
