Check it out, after over a week one of the cats finally used the new cat bed! Success!
I think Lily knows this is a big deal. Usually first thing in the morning it’s Robin (Lily’s mother) who is sucking up to us and looking for start-of-the-day attention. Today it was Lily. Maybe she knows we’re pleased that she used the new cat bed and wants to soak up the extra level of human happiness.
Or maybe she’s just mugging for the camera.
The expert Mouse Hunter takes a much deserved rest.
Enjoy your nap, Miss Robin Sparkles.
We are proud of our two cats. They have protected their house from an invader. A little, tiny, furry, squeaky invader.
They caught a mouse.
We saw them hunting when we got up this morning. There was something in a closet that they really wanted to get at. I saw it for a second. A little brown mouse. It was adorable. It was also a bastard of a home invader who needed to be removed. The mouse got away this morning. It did not get away for long.
Jen walked into a room and found it laying in the middle of the floor, seemingly dead. She turned away to get something to cover the body and when she turned back it was gone. A few minutes later she found it seemingly dead on the floor not far away. Was it actually dead this time or was it just playing dead? I scooped it up and took it outside. Pretty sure it was dead. Poor little sucker.
Good job, cats! Lily and Robin protected their home and their family. They are good mouse hunters. We gave them some treats in thanks. Good job, my little furry friends. We’re proud of you.
So the diagnosis is indeed conjunctivitis. Yippee. Asa bonus though, there is also another stye too. I guess I have one in each eye. Jackpot, or something.
Here is a picture of a cat to cheer my sick eyes up a little.
I saw a post on one of the social media sites that I sort of use where someone was raving about this new app that simulates film photography. Hipstamatic.
New app? Dude, the app launched in 2009. Where you been?
I could use a nap too, you little furry animal you.
Sitting on this table and staring out the window is one of Robin Sparkles’ favorite things to do. I am not sure how happy she is about the xmas decoration situation though. She looks a little cheesed off in this picture.
All I can say is, suck it up feline. It’s going to get worse before it gets better. HoHoHo and shit.
The cats do not allow us to put a tree skirt around the base of our xmas tree. Every time we do, they rip it away. It’s the new xmas normal.
One cat is never enough. We’re starting to think two might not be enough. How about three? Maybe.
Ready for some TMI action?
I just booked a colonoscopy. Getting old sucks sometimes, doesn’t it? Middle age can bite my shiny metal ass.
How’s that for Too Much Information? Heh heh.
Here’s a cat, pondering the universe…
