Mimi looks pretty solemn here, but that’s just her resting face. I swear she smiles when we’re snuggling. She’s my little bean. I started calling her that when, unbeknownst to me, she slipped out the door to my apartment. I didn’t realize she was gone until I heard some frantic scratching at that door. When I opened it and saw her standing there, her eyes big as saucers, I exclaimed, “Mimi! My little bean!” I don’t know where that came from, but it stuck.

I’m so glad she came back! She always liked it outdoors but had her limits.

She is a beauty. Hurrah that she knew to return home and scratch at the door!

Very much hurrah! I think my eyes were probably as big as hers when I realized she’d gotten out without me having any idea.

I can only imagine just how very big those “little bean” eyes were when that door got opened. That clearly was not her plan to be on the other side.😊

No, I think it probably was a shock to her that I didn’t just know when she was on the other side of the door. She sure let me know she was there!

I love it! Little Bean suits her, I think, especially when you saw her looking so vulnerable, trying to get back into her home and snuggle with you. Give her…and Walter…loads of love today…from me! 💝

Thank you! And you nailed it…she wanted to get back inside so she could snuggle! She’s a love. So is Walter, for that matter, but we’re talking about my little bean right now. 😊
