The Magic Black Cat

I heard whimpering coming from the living room around 3:30 this morning. I sat up and and could see it was Gabby. She was holding her blankie on her ear and crying. After giving her a dose of Tylonol and putting drops in her ear and laying her back down this time in our bed, she slept for about 2 mintues. Then was crying again. She wanted to move to the couch which was fine, I would just snooze in the recliner beside her. Then suddenly the crying stopped as she picked up Angus, our black cat. It was almost as if Angus know she needed her. Gabby carried to the couch and layed down to sleep off and on and while she did still wake and fus, she always was checking to make sure kitty was still snuggled up beside her.
