My twin bed is raised up on four 9-inch risers so that it is easier for me to sit.

Col. Deeds, with the aide of the cat hut, can now easily get up and down.

The other afternoon I was in my study and could hear him yelping and yapping, accompanied by thuds that sounded like Bailey and Harrigan when they jump off the bed.

I stepped into the bedroom to find Deeds and The Sisters playing a game much like “King of the Hill” that I played as a kid. He was in the bed and when one sister hopped up on the bed, he chased them off. While he was on one side of the bed, the other sister would hop up and he’d chase her off. This game continued for over 45-minutes. When I went to check on “the quiet,” Bailey, Harrigan, and Deeds were sound asleep on the bed.

Now, when I prepare to lay down to watch a documentary, Deeds hops onto the bed and dashes to my pillow.

He is growing fast and I’ve noticed he’s a bit taller.
