For the last couple of weeks, when I have come downstairs in the morning at 6am, Leo runs out to greet me and when I observe him, he has been looking as though he's just come out of the shower. His fur around his head, ears and back looked scraggy and very much as though Leo had been subject to a complete body wash. So I've had to get the brush out and smooth out his fur. I've been puzzled as to why this has been although I made an assumption that there must have been an element of Lillian grooming Leo. I have seen Lillian groom Leo but only briefly - it is not something she's really taken to.
Then, this morning, I came downstairs and there's no sign of Lillian and Leo. Lillian is usually found lying in the middle between the box and the en suite area. Leo is usually sitting near the window to the garden.
So I bent over, looked under the covers and discovered why Leo is looking like he's just been showered. He's lying flat out, lording it, with Lillian lying 90 degrees across him giving him a right old licking.........

I've never seen this behaviour from Lillian before, certainly not with Henry. She and Henry would communal groom and were very intense about it, but this today - this was different. Quite amazing and in a funny way, quite beautiful...
