YOL9

"Why does Milo have to scratch me when he sits with me?" Heidi demanded for the hundredth time.

I shrugged sympathetically.

"Why does Milo love that box so much?" Heidi wondered. "It's too small for him!"

I nodded sympathetically.

"Why does Milo hate it so much when I kiss Lucy?" Heidi mused. "He doesn't even like it when I kiss him, but he looks so grumpy when I kiss her."

I raised my eyebrows sympathetically. 

"I think we've established over the last seven years that he's just an oddball," I answered, thinking of some of his other quirks, such as eating super slowly, or crying at the door whenever Heidi leaves for a moment before dinner, or flipping out whenever Tibby smells like the vet, or running to find me the minute he hears my meditation.

"Let's roll with it," I suggested.
