The New King and Subjects: Faring Well.

Cameron adopts a shoe. © Colehaus Cats.

Thank you for your kind emails after our loss of Zooot. Every one was appreciated and helped tremendously. Some asked how Cameron was doing now that Zooot had passed. The answer: He’s doing better than we feared he would (this had been a conversational topic for some time) and he has, in fact, adopted a ratty old shoe.

Perhaps adoption is too strong a word. Yes, he loves this shoe. We’d like to say he carries it around wherever he goes, eats with it and sleeps with it. But that’d be a fib. He doesn’t do any of those things. But while all the Colehaus Cats have a thing for this shoe, his bond is stronger, somehow, matching his disposition, that without his companion Zooot, is getting stronger every day.
