Fun and Games



Sophie sticks pretty close to Pretty Girl. Her favorite spot? The hoody on her jacket. When that wouldn't do - Santa's hat was just fine. They did wonderfully when we took them to Pet Smart with Daisy the woofie to have their photo taken with the man in the red suit.

You'll never guess what Santa brought for Milly and Sophie? A three-story cat tower! They're in absolute kitten over-load with that, their new jingle balls and a fish on a stick.

The kittens are growing and giving us a lot of joy these days.

Christmas Terror

Mom is reluctant to put out any Chrissy-mas stuff for fear that me and Soph will destroy items that have belonged to her for decades. WHAT? I surely don't know what gave her that idea. So, we took a few liberties with her baskets filled with artificial holly and ivy - that doesn't necessarily mean we'll be hanging from the tree top and shredding every ribbon we can find.

Although that does sound like fun. hehehehehehehehehe

The Chrissy-mas spirit hasn't come easy to Mom this year. But, she says she will start decorating tonite.

Meowy! New toys!

Soph discovered she can jump onto the dinner tray in Tea Guy's bedroom. Tea Guy being the old softy that he is when it comes to Soph, makes sure there's a tid bit or two for the little fuzz ball to eat on the tray. Mom and Pretty Girl aren't exactly thrilled since they're trying to get Sophie to eat just dry cat food. HA! Not a chance? Me, I'm a good girl and I eat just the dry Whiskas for Kittens.

Tea Guy isn't doing well. He still laughs at us when we visit him in his room. We're good medicine, Mom sez.

Purrs and head butts,

Chasing Raindrops

Sophie and I had a good Thanks For Giving holiday with Mom, Pretty Girl, Tea Guy, Tattoo Boy and Pinky. The beans ate and drank a lot of weird stuff. Little Sophie was the only one who tried any of it - she LOVED the turkey. Me? Sniffed it, walked away. My stinky goodness is all I want!

Mom was home from her day job - so we joined her in the sewing room before she found us trying to shread the quilt she worked on. Geese! Can't a kitten have any fun? Our favorite game in the sewing room is Dive Bomb Into the Fabric followed closely by Bobbin Chasing, Batting the Batting and Finding Dropped Pins. Mom has a long metal tube/magnet that chases the pins, so she joins that last game and usually wins.

Us kitties are doing our level best to comfort/support Tea Guy. Mom checks on Tea Guy around the clock and one night she found Sophie on a pillow next to him. Good girl, Sophie!

It's been raining - a lot. Love, love, love chasing the drops on the bay window. Mom says snow tomorrow. Not sure I'm gonna like that.

Mom and Pretty Girl took a lot of flashy photos over the weekend of us - look for a Wordless Wednesday tomorrow!

Purrs and heat butts,
Milly

Woofies Can Share

This is Daisy the woofie. She tolerates us kitties most of the time, but she enjoys eating our left-overs. Before Sophie came to live with us, Daisy chewed on me a lot. For some reason, she can't be bothered with either one of us now.



Daisy does share her water bowl with us. Sometimes we more sophisticated kitties play with the water. Note the blue striped bowl - it says "Woof". Guess who eats out of this dish?

See the green tube along the floor? That's Tea Guy's oxygen line. Sometimes it gets dipped into the water bowl. No big deal, we drink around it.



Silly Mom - got right in Sophie's face and took a photo. Yikes!


Enough sillyness. Time for stinky goodness!

Comfort Cats

Tea Guy is sick. He sleeps a lot and when he walks it's tough for him to breathe. Sophie and I love playing with the air tubes Tea Guy drags around the house. But we're careful not to put holes in the tubes - that would hurt Tea Guy, who incidentally is the ONLY male in the house. Yay for us girls!

Yesterday when Mom returned home, she found both me and Sophie snuggling with Tea Guy. He's sleeping on the sofa. I'm on his lap and Sophie is curled up on the back of his neck (of all places!)

Once we smelled the food in our dinner bowls, we left Tea Guy. A kitten's gotta eat, you know.

After our haute cuisine of stinky goodness and the beans dined on tettrazini, Tea Guy laid in bed. Sophie and I joined him, with our purrrrr machines turned up nice and loud. We make him smile.

And Mom sez that's a good thing.

(Note from Mom: Our kittens bring such joy to our lives. They are a true gift from God!)

Formerly Feral Friday





Featuring and authored by - Sophie Biscuit!!!!
I was lost, frightened and my cat mummy was gone. The ground was covered with wet leaves and I fell. This wasn't fun. I cried.
I heard a loud noise and bean voices. I wanted to run, but I couldn't. Making myself even smaller didn't work when the small bean spoke to me.
"Poor itty bitty kitty," Pretty Girl cooed as she lifted me from the hole and into a nice, warm blanket. No more wet leaves and cold outdoors for me. This was kitty cat heaven! Pretty Girl may not be a cat, but she's a great mom.
So, I'm formerly feral....and getting more spoilt each day......
Now, where's my stinky goodness?

Thankful Thursday

Mom sez it's two weeks til Thanks For Giving Day. Sophie and me feel thank-full every day for having such a good home with Mom, Pretty Girl and Tea Guy. Oh, and Daisy too! Sophie may not be alive if it weren't for our beans. Me? A house full of food and toys is oh so much better than the cramped cage I had at Red Bank Vet Hospital.

I'm thank-full for early evenings when Mom sits in the La-Z Boy chair to watch the box in the front room. Her lap is oh-so comfortable and gives me a breather before lunatic hour starts.

Lunatic hour? It's any time when me and Sophie run, run, run and jump through the silk flowers or chase balls and paper.

We're easily amused.
