I think Delilah is tired of the darkness in the bedroom. I have kept the lights off so that they don’t bother Sam’s eyes and am only burning night lights.
This morning, Delilah decided to join the crew and when I opened the door to let her out into the house, she joined the group, no muss, no fuss.
I have to admit being reluctant and even a bit scared to let her into general population. She doesn’t move well on her rear legs. The vet suspects she has no patellas at all in those legs- but since she has adapted to these limitations, I saw no need to run films on her. It’s not as if it can be corrected or that it needs to be at this stage in her life. I still believe based on talking to the owner in one of her lucid moments, that Delilah is Shell’s mom.
So now, she is out and about with the group and at this moment she is laying on the couch sleeping.
I will be putting her back in the bedroom before dark, because if there is going to be a confrontation it will happen after the sun goes down when cats become predatory. But for now, unlike Samson who will have to stay far away from the sun, Delilah as found her own sunspot on the couch and has claimed it as her own.
