Day 10, Alive. Much to the chagrin of WC and BC, Butterfly is now the FIRST being to which I attend upon arrival in the kitchen. Get out the stool, climb up on the counter, check (1) is there water in the saucer? and (2) is the butterfly in sight? Negative and affirmative. Add water to saucer to see if the butterfly reacts. Yes. Verify that there is fruit available. Yes. Add a little more pomegranate molasses (closest thing I have to nectar.) Next up: Chez Cat responsibilities. 🙂

As a Butterfly Mama, you rock! Just another unexpected but unsurprising talent. As a reward, I got you a prezzie!
OMG I can’t believe that butterfly is still alive! You’re doing a great job taking care of her! Him? They?
I cannot believe you have now brought up the question of appropriate pronouns. It never occurred to me to ask. But since I have been using “He/Him/His” and there has not been any obvious negative reaction on or near the saucer, I’m going to assume that I got it right. 🙂 Day 11 – we have competition for the Energizer Bunny.
As long as the prezzie is NOT more cocoons, that sounds lovely. Day 11 dawns with glorious sunshine, bitterly cold temperatures, and a live butterfly.
Hahahahaha
