Rufus has competition

Sorry, Rufus, but you just don't seem as cute as you did nine days ago.

Rufus is talented

Rufus's greatest talent is his unerring ability to find the most comfortable place in any room.

For example, not minutes after Roberta started sorting out a box of baby clothes to wash, Rufus had honed in on the irresistible super-softness of the garments and bedded down on them.

The same sharp homing instinct applies to a comforter on the floor of the office.
And to Roberta's pregnancy body pillow.
Amazing, isn't it?

Rufus is back

Rufus has been back with us in DC for about 6 weeks now. He's recovering well from his cruciate ligament surgery, and has settled down into his old groove. Which means sleep. Lots. He has to catch up after staying up late with Seth to watch for the latest election poll results.
