The smiles around our house are going to be gone for a while.  Our cat just attacked Bianca, my youngest, and left a big scratch across her neck.  This has been going on for a while.  As a 3 year old, Bianca is not ready for a pet.  She always wants to hold the cat, to carry him.  And if you know cats, you know they only go where they want.

So, inevitably, he has to go.  I love this cat, but Bianca will not leave him alone and he is not a passive cat who will just lie there and let her carry him around.  And her safety is more important.  If it were possible to lock him up until she is ready to understand, I would.  But that’s not fair to him, or healthy.

So, in honor to Sir Lancelot (that’s the cat’s name) here is a pic of him when we first got him:
