Comforts of Frankie

Frankie is the even-keeled, predictable, well behaved boy of The Herd, but he does like his comforts.

For example, he has a certain spot on the deck that is his. From this vantage point, he can monitor all wildlife traffic (most importantly, the rabbits) and also watch his siblings.

perfect spot, crossed paws, and the comforts of Frankie

The perfect spot (and notice the sophisticated crossed paws).

Inside, he prefers a certain couch in the den. Just like the deck position, this is his place and no one else is allowed. Certainly not younger brothers.

Don’t even think it, little bro.

From here, with a simple head toss over the couch, he can still monitor all activity inside Sibe Quentin.

Anything happening out there?

And, when he is ready, he has claimed the BIG pillow as his personal pillow. After all, when Frankie wants comforts, he wants COMFORTS.

just right

This pillow is just right.

    Your Frankie sounds so much like our Sasha. They even resemble each other in looks. So enjoy your stories.

    Does he move for the Queen? Or does she allow him his spots?

      No one, but no one, takes a spot the Queen wants. Typhoon yelled at her recently because she wanted something. He received the withering look and slunk away to find a “better” spot.
