Another lovely story. But it is really two stories. Your motherly instinct took over when you took Persephone in and cherished her. And I can try to imagine what my mother thought when she learned she was pregnant as she was finishing high school with hopes of college that was never to be. Seven months later, Roger and I arrived. Our parents moved into a shack and we got a little dog, a rat terrier, to protect us from all of the mice.

That's the first time I've read about a jealous cat. But my brother Roger, had to get rid of a precocious poodle when her second daughter was born. Likewise, when my younger brothers were born, our mongrel buddy had to be given away because my mother was worried about him being jealous of these coming twins.
