Attending to Leon

Somewhere in there it occurred to me that our shy cat Leon hadn't come and sat with me on the couch since I came back from Alaska. It so happens that this coincides with when I started to get sucked into practicing French on my phone.

Today I began rectifying this breach by consciously going back to Natalie's room where Leon largely spends his days and spending some quality time with him. He was very happy to have me come and pet him and remains as soft as ever. We'll see if this bears fruit in the weeks ahead.
