The One The Only Freddie

Freddie is a young himalian cat.Don't let it fool you because Freddie is a female feline. She is owned by a past friend of my father. Her name is Debbie.Whenever I visted Debbie and my father Freddie was always waiting by the pantry door for me to fill her food dish and get her some clean water.After I did that Freddie would pur, beg to be stroked,then finally start eating.At night Freddie's food and water dishes would be empty and Freddie would be hungry.Just before sunrise Freddie would jump up onto the armrest of the coach (I slept on the coach) and tap me on the forhead .Well it didn't matter how hard she tapped me it woke me up!The first time though I thought it was my brother Aric.Sometimes it was Aric but that first time when I felt the tap I said"Leave me alone Aric"but then I felt another tap and my eyes snapped open to see Freddie's face inches away from my face!It was quite frightning.Apparently Freddie did it every morning.Usually she did it so I would refill her food or water dish or she wanted me to let her outside.Although sometimes it was almost like she wanted to tell or show me something.Here are some of those times.When Freddie caught (and ate half of) her first mouse.The time the fridge wasn't closed all the way , When she killed a fly,also she woke me up when her litter box needed changing.It seemed whenever something needed changing, doing, or if something was wrong Freddie would tell me.
