Stella laughed, Anton knew his cat as well as she did her Tesla. At the moment those two only had eyes for each other. “I told you I’ll be happy to host Lics when you’re travelling.” She smiled up at Anton, “they’ll be just fine in either place.”<br/><br/>Just then she spied Lics jumping up the tree with Tesla looking like he was about to jump. Stella was on him in three strides and captured the squirming Maine Coon who volubly protested the treatment meted out at him.<br/><br/>Stella grinned up at Anton and said, “I’ll bring a great salad, can’t wait for dinner.” Tesla making a determined bid for freedom tried to launch himself out of her arms but Stella hung on. For dear life actually, although she tried to make it look casual...no biggie. Inwardly though...<i>cat you’re going on a diet...stop struggling you fat feline fiend. </i><br/><br/>She flashed another smile and grunted as Tesla tried once more to launch himself off her tummy , “ok, then. Later ...” and she headed back upstairs.<br/><br/>Tesla jumped out of her arms as soon as she was inside and headed to the door clamoring for freedom. Stella groaned, “it's gonna be a long day.”
