A blanket returned to the sitting room this week.
It spent several days folded over the back of a chair.
Smokey walked past it repeatedly.
No interest.
On Friday evening, I sat down and pulled the blanket across my legs.
This appears to have activated it.
Smokey arrived immediately.
He stepped onto the blanket and began circling.
I adjusted one edge.
He paused.
The ground had moved during inspection.
This was noted.
He circled again, then settled directly across my legs.
I now had approximately twelve inches of usable blanket.
Smokey had the rest.
I attempted one minor adjustment.
Smokey opened his eyes.
Adjustment proceedings were concluded.
Management may keep the corners.
