My Shadow

We always talk about Felix as the grumpy one, the obnoxious food obsessed nut that wakes us up with dive bombing at 5:30 in the morning, the one with the fanatical "Allah" yowl while waiting to be fed. But Felix more than any of those things is my shadow. When I am home, especially during the day, he just wants to be near me. If I am typing on the computer he is either near by or ON the computer (slightly more frustrating). If I am in the bedroom he comes in there and hangs out next to me. He sleeps by my side every night. Well today I sat on the couch with my feet curled up to the side talking to my visiting Father. It was a cold morning and who comes along and curls up on my feet and stays by my side for the next hour? My shadow, Felix. As annoying as he can be, this really is an endearing trait and I have to admit, I love it!
