A Revealing Tail: Eli Loves Charlie, Too
Orange they cute together?

• • • Charlie and Eli ~ the archetypal yet atypical BFFs, at least according to Charlie.
Oh, how this coyote worships this cat.  Still and always.  He LOVES him.
Eli’s pretty darn fond of Charlie, too, though, while Eli can be almost annoyingly needy for affection with me, he always maintains that classic “I’ll let you love me” cat thing with Charlie.  And so when he does rub against Charlie, Charlie nearly faints with delight.
