Texts From Mittens by Angie Bailey for May 11, 2021

Could the world survive with two The Mittens!?

How about Mommy knit it into a nice little blanket for a box?

Together, you could call them The Mittens.

Individually, you could call them The Left Mitten and The Right Mitten.

Surely you exaggerate. I’ll bet there was only enough to make a hamster.

Our Norwegian Forest cat sheds that much every year.

Surely enough to make mittens for The Mittens – except he’d never wear them.

I had a cat who thoroughly enjoyed being brushed with a soft brush. One day, when the brush was sitting bristles-up next to him, he put a paw down into the bristles, closed his paw and picked it up by the bristles between his toes. The way he looked at it, he was clearly thinking “how does this thing work?”. I have never seen another cat pick up something that way.

One Mittens is more than enough.

Nimitz and Honor like to have their faces brushed. If a brush is laying around, they rub their faces on it.
