Spike is laying on his back chewing on the telephone...cute little devil! Parker is laying outside the gate that blocks her from my room looking like she is on guard duty. I have to spend some time in my room because Spike hates Parker with such a passion, that even after all these weeks of her visit, he will not come downstairs. He sits at the top of the stairs meowing in a progressivly louder tone until I scream...yes...I scream...it drives me crazy. Yesterday he was actually throwing back his head and HOWLING!!!!! He is so freakin needy.
