Fear him, as he's watching you.

Benjamin may look like a devilish cat, but he's the most peaceful and patting-lover cat I've ever known, looking and feeling like a living plush toy. He belongs to a "friend couple" * that became parents exactly one week after me and R. It's nice to have someone to trade notes about this new experience.

* annoyingly, it seems there's no way to describe a couple who is friendly with another couple, so I chose this wording
