For a long time, for years and years, I didn't know
what was special about Persia.
Persia. His face has soft gray and white colors mixed together - a bit like a Persian carpet. So he was named Persia. As a kitten, he was always the first
to try anything. So he was special in that way.
He would spend hours
jumping at sunbeams - like all kittens, but more intently. So he got the nickname, Persia the Hunter.
I don't know if he is changing because of ZonZon's coming,
or if it's just that I'm noticing more.
When ZonZon came, a kitten cat who wanted to roughhouse,
Persia was maybe five or six years old. The other cats were also all
grown-ups and just hissed. But Persia let her pounce on him for hours.
And then I noticed. He's not just care-taking around ZonZon.
In a very different way, he takes care of Madame the Neurotic.
Madame walks around, looking desolate, yowling as if she didn't have a friend
in the world, as if she had been abandoned all alone on a desolate desert island.
Persia goes to her, soothes her.
Madame goes lies on an armchair, all alone, looking around as if
someone is about to pounce. Persia goes to her, licks her, quiets her.
When Persia is with Madame, she relaxes, rests peacefully.
Persia will spend hours cuddling her, or lying beside her but watching
what is going on around him.
Sometimes Madame also tenderly grooms him.
Now that I have started to notice what is special about Persia,
I see how, maybe most of all, he is a watcher and protector.
A new cat, Timothy Cat, came to stay just a few months ago.
Persia watched and watched.
He'ss not the boss in this little cat society - there doesn't seem to be any boss.
He doesn't watch in order to take over or control. I think it's that he cares,
and cares to protect.
Lately I've been noticing that, just as I watch him, he's watching me.

Madame the Neurotic
Why Madame is neurotic I don't know. But she insists on eating alone,
not with the other cats. And when she is alone - though she has chosen
to be alone - she meows and meows. I call her. She comes and is soothed,
but just for a moment.
She leaves - and starts meowing again. Except when she is with Persia.
Most of the day, she is with Persia -
In fact, more and more, they are together.
There is one cat who often joins them - Ollio the Awful,
the only other cat who wails. He looks at Persia and Madame
peacefuly together, and jumps right on them. "Let me in."
