I’ve been a little worried about how Riley will handle it when Gabby is gone since Gabby has really been Riley’s mother surrogate from day 1. Gabby is doing well but we know she won’t be around forever. Lately, Winnie has taken to washing Riley’s face on occasion. For awhile, Winnie and Riley struggled over the top cat role but they seem to have settled into a routine of play and companionship that will make it easier when the time does come for Gabby to depart.
