Two years. Two+ long years and Gabe continues to wear Emma down. She’s a tough nut to crack if you’re not Bixby (or Harley) but Gabe is nothing if not persistent.
Gabe
Gabe Naps
Gabe hoping against hope it will be warm enough for the patio door to be opened (they won’t stay outside if the door is closed because, I don’t know, cats?) As long as they stay in the backyard and come when I call, they will continue to have backyard privileges. Just not when it’s 30 degrees out.
Gabe Would Like To Speak To The Manager
It Only Took Two Years and Two Weeks
It only took two years and two weeks of patient nudging for Emma to let Gabe sleep next to her. He wasn’t going to give up until she relented.
Guarding the Garden
Gabe making sure the garden is safe for the ducks. Ever vigilant.
A Little Scout and Gabe
I needed a new profile picture for Facebook, and Scout obliged.
And here is Gabe doing his balancing act. He has been lying on the rail, which is adorable with all his, shall we say, floofiness (we do not body shame here 😉 ) but whenever I get the camera out, he bolts. I’ll keep trying.
These Two
I have no idea why Gabe has become so fixated on Scout. But she’s his favorite right now.
The Hardest Part
Waiting can be tough.
Tougher for some than others.
