Puck is Boss Cat. Yes, we all know that. But how has he stayed on top for so long? Well, maybe it's because nothing rattles his 20+ pounds.
Some nights when I come home from work, every cupboard is open. Sometimes I wake up in the morning and every cupboard is open, and sometimes even a drawer or two. I know that is usually the work of Darwin, with an assist from Lillie-Belle and Twink. A lot of work goes into that mayhem.
The bedding is often askew (everyone has a paw in that). Shoes are rearranged in the closet (Opie). Toilet paper is unrolled (Puddin). In other words, everyone else is busy making mischief. And where is Puck? Puck is in his sitting spot at the top of the stairs, watching and not much else.
Puck has never been sick. Never felt stress. Never had a housemate he didn't get along with (save for the dogs he won't let pass on the stairs).
Puck is Boss Cat, but he is so much more than that. He is the calm in the eye of the storm. Puck spends his life chillin'.
Maybe in our quest to be Boss Cat of our own lives, we are going about it the wrong way. We need to spend more time chillin' at the time of the stairs, and less time rearranging shoes and opening cupboards.
