At the dinner, I am given the background on several of the cats that live on the compound. First is "Bob." People love Bob. Bob is a she. Bob likes to run alongside a person walking between the hooches, then Bob jumps up on the sandbags and runs along the top of those to escort visitors to whatever building they are heading to. Bob is popular. Heidi is confused why Bob has a man's name when she's a girl.
Then there is "Mr. Winkie," who is universally hated for his spiteful and violent demeanor. "Which one is Mr. Winkie?" Heidi asks. Ed closes one eye in an exaggerated manner and says, "The one with one eye."
Then there is the beloved Spot, who tends to lounge in the sun all day long. "Which one is Spot?" Heidi asks. Ed looks at a loss for words before finally answering, "The one with spots."
I am going to try to get a picture of Mr. Winkie.
