I hope you're having a wonderful day with nothing but love and joy.
No one deserves it more than you, sweetheart.
Thank you for everything you are doing -
for your kindness and love,
LJ wouldn't be as magical as it is without you. .
I'm so happy to call you my friend -
I'm all the more happier you call me your friend, too.
Enjoy this marvellous day, darling.
I'm thinking of you.
And here's something for you - I hope you'll enjoy!
Love and biggest birthday hugs EVER,
Julchen
I wanted post post some pictures but it isn't possible now and I don't know why.
As soon at this works again, you'll get them, honey.
“Love sick”
I’ve never seen him like this. I’m surprised.
This isn’t the stubborn, unrestrained, rebellious boy –
inapproachable he shows us usually.
This glimpse of tenderness when he looks at Casey,
unspoken words of gentleness in his eyes
when Casey talks to him –
this puts a new face on him.
Those tiny little touches – unintentionally? –
when he passes by,
sometimes a soft touch of his shoulder,
sometimes a timid touch of fingers to fingers.
The delicacy when he bends over,
murmuring,
whispering
something in his voice
that makes Casey smile.
The gaze he gives this young man
shows hypersensitive emotions.
His eyes holding him in
A lovers’ gaze.
There’s trust.
Confidence.
When Casey cups his face with his hands
when Casey whispers his name
to stop him shaking
they get lost in themselves.
They don’t notice me.
Not at all.
It’s incredible –
Zeke ignores ME!
My self-chosen master leans into
Casey’s hands,
closing his eyes slowly.
He looks so young, so vulnerable.
It seems he has found what he was
looking for.
Even he doesn’t move it feels like
he flows to Casey’s arms.
Zeke’s like me. Usually.
Master of his own will,
independent,
taking care only of himself
and me
but he was missing something it seems.
He was missing a companion, a friend –
when I’m not here, of course.
Now and then.
No. Not these girls anymore.
I didn’t like them.
All this screaming because of
little scratches or
runs in their nylons when I tried
to sharpen my claws.
Nylons wearing ladies and my Zeke –
this doesn’t match.
And he knows it.
But with Casey this is different.
First I wanted to protest, noisy of course –
but then I decided to look uninterested.
This always works to get his attention.
Usually.
The way Zeke looks at him is new to me –
Unambiguous, too.
They are standing in the middle of our flat,
I don’t know for how long,
only staring,
slightly touching .
Licking my paws,
washing my face,
turning my back to them –
I am far from showing interest –
if there wouldn’t be this
damned curiosity.
When I’m turning to the left -
just a bit – so I can look at them
from the corner of my eye –
my Zeke looks different.
He is a nerve bundle when
Casey steps closer,
too close in my opinion.
Usually he would made a joke,
smirking, leaving the other one
embarrassed and stupid.
But not this time.
There is something in the air.
Covering my head with my paws,
eyes closed to a small slit
I get alert when Zeke moans
almost painfully “Casey…”
I am close to an attack -
but then I see their eyes.
Zeke looks at him like he does when
I’m sitting in his lap,
being fondled while we’re enjoying
one of our quiet evenings.
He looks more intense now.
Should I become jealous?
Casey seems to enjoy his touches,
caresses, featherlike movements,
too.
I know how magical his hands feel.
Maybe this is why he steps closer
to Zeke.
My Zeke moans and whimpers again.
Attention Casey-Boy!
Don’t you hurt him.
I stop purring
ready to defend my host with one of
my 7 lives.
Their lips touch, briefly,
That makes my Zeke weak in the knees.
It must be something special,
something serious.
Something I can’t explain.
Something I don’t understand.
Something I can feel.
He struggles but Casey holds him tight
touching his lips again.
Between strokes and licks they are
talking with soft voices,
like a kind of purring –
cat-boys.
Definitely.
I think I’ll accept it. (as if I would have a chance!)
Mischievously blinking it’s my turn
to stop them now,
letting Casey know –
‘CATS’ come first.
Just to make things clear.
Rubbing my cheeks against his legs,
I let him know – you can stay, too.
Now and then.
He should know
My Zeke and I are inseparable –
whenever I want it.
The rest of the time,
yes,
he’s allowed to spend the rest of the time
with my Zeke.
Nothing less.
Nothing more.
They are both smiling at me –
Love-sick!
Both of them.
Time for me to go.
Night is waiting.

I love his egotism ("Zeke ignores ME!") and his perception ("He was missing a companion, a friend – when I’m not here, of course.") He has the patience to observe and of course he is a master-interpreter of body-language and the meaning of all those "tiny little touches" *swoon*. It's so cute the way he interprets kisses as "licks" (or maybe they are licks??) and the way he decides to accept Casey into their lives because he makes Zeke so happy. I love his ownership of Zeke and the way he calls them "cat-boys". All of it is so perfectly 'cat' ("My Zeke and I are inseparable – whenever I want it." - LOL!) And a perfect name for him, as independent and enigmatic as he is.
Bravo!
