I reached home late last night, unlocked the door, and Mera fell out.

I was quite surprised, because he hardly comes INTO the house nowadays.

It could be he came up to wait for dinner, but I was on night shift, so he came in.

Hat was right behind me at that time, oblivious to Mera. I had to twirl Mera's bell to warn him. Of course Hat took the hint and shot off.

Mera ate his dinner, groomed, sang, played with string, then ate somemore. I massaged him, he played again, then he left.

He seemed quite happy, even though Yb came up later. They are wary of each other.

Yb is a big boned cat, except he doesn't have much flesh.
