I’ve been told that Dolly has calmed down now that I’m here. When it was just Nick and Allison, Dolly would jump on them and jump off right away, or go scratching things like crazy. Or if they left to take out the garbage, Dolly would come crazy meowing at the door when they got back five minutes later as if they’d been gone another week. I had to comb her for a while, and must have removed about 10 times the hair I normally do. She’s back to her old self again, except she seems even more affectionate this time, with the headbutting and the lap napping. She seems to want to keep track of everyone now, so she’ll only sleep where she can see everyone, such as on the couch arm if we’re in the living room, or at the juncture of our rooms if we’re in there.
