Meet Bunny the Cat
This is one well-traveled cat.
His formal name in Luna Angelats but those who know him best call him Bunny. I'm not sure why. He was born in Columbus Ohio. At the age of three or four, he moved to Boulder, Colorado, where he lived several years. He then moved to Paris, France, where he spent a couple years. During his time in Paris, he vacationed in Barcelona. For the last five years, he has lived in Marina del Rey, California. His regular staff is taking a two-week vacation in Barcelona and he is spending this time here with Shirley, Socrates and me. Bunny is getting up in years and needs to take several medications every day. For that reason, he chose not to vacation in Europe this year.
Socrates, above, who has lived his whole life in Pomona, questions why he needs to share his staff or anything else with his sophisticated and somewhat demanding nephew. Among other things, Bunny eats Socrates' food but Socrates doesn't like Bunny's food. Socrates mostly growls when he sees Bunny or even when he thinks he might see Bunny. They haven't actually fought as yet. Bunny just ignores Socrates. We may need to separate them but for now we're still hoping they can work something out so that Socrates is happier about the situation and spends less time under our bed or hiding behind Shirley's monitor.

Bunny is one cosmopolitan cat.
It goes to show that even someone of Socrates' caliber could be selfish & capricious.
