“Error” - LOL. Great name.
Our daughter had a roommate who had a cat who birthed Merlin. Our daughter was there when he was born, so we’ve had him since he was born. Of course Daughter moved away and we’ve inherited Merlin.
He has the most interesting habits. Will jump up and sit next to me on one particular chair. Skittish and any strange noise scares him. Doesn’t like strangers. Doesn’t like his face rubbed much. Barely tolerates being picked up and when you do pick him up he gives you the stiff-arm but he sleeps on our bed every night and sleeps through the whole night. Never wakes up to go on patrol. Bella can never sleep through the night so she sleeps in the cold garage. If we leave her in, you will always wake to heavy clump-clump-clump footsteps right at 3 am.
Merlin sound wonderful because he does need to be near you. Loved King Arthur when young.
We had a very skittish grey cat we took in that husband named Greycode for Greycode’s Algorithm. We made real mistakes with our present two - Watson and Rory. For some reason, neither of us can remember their names and we’re always pointing and saying “That one!”
I worry terribly over wild animals, so we leave the window up in the garage and it’s filled with animal beds and heat lamps in the winter. Our neighbor claimed she always did a doubletake because the garage kept looking like it was on fire.
