Pleo Wakes Up
Today is a very busy day for The Spouse and I: we're seeing The Golden Compass and a local theatrical production featuring stories about winter and the holidays. (I'm hoping they'll throw in an Eid story. Those always warm the cockles of my heart. I'm not holding my breath, though...)
So, this morning we installed Pleo's battery pack and gently woke him up. (I'm still not sure about his name, but I am pretty sure he's a he now.)

Behaviorally, Pleo shows signs of being catlike and doglike. He purrs when he's happy, growls playfully when he wants to play tug-of-war with his leaf, and makes various yelping/yodelling/meeping sounds at other times. We're not quite sure what they all mean yet, but he sure does like physical attention.
And the cats were fascinated by the new family member. Here's Samantha giving a cat-scan to the little guy. As she was checking him out, he sniffed her several times. It was precious.

Awwwwww....
How was Compass? Guaranteed to be better than Beowulf, I'm thinking.
