There's a story behind this.
Meffi used to be the sweetheart of Merlin ever since she was in heat for her first and only time. They were a funny pair, him such a big tux cat, her a tiny tiger girl.
When Merlin left us three years ago, Meffi changed in some ways. She wouldn't go upstairs anymore for example. In those three years she has been upstairs maybe four or five times for a quick round.
Today however she ran up the stairs and check out the whole room like in the old days. The boys were baffled, Ponder in particular. He started whining and rolling around on the floor as if he didn't know what to do while Meffi was in the chair, under my desk, under the tall guy's desk (like in this picture), balancing on the stairway rail (I hate when they do that), on the desks and didn't think of leaving.
It sounds very little, but it made me really happy and I shot a whole batch of pictures of which this one is my favorite even if you can't really see her here.

If you read all of this, thank you! ;)

It is sad, yes. Merlin was a very special cat and he and Meffi were a dream team as you can see in this picture [link]
It'll be four years in February, but the hole he left is still there.

Thanks, Heather :)
Of course I thought in the lines of "the world's going under" or "cats take over the world" (wait, they already have done that) or "she's sick". It was just sooo unusual!
