Friday Felines

Hi, friends,

Today seemed like as good a time as any to update you on some of the kitty population Chez AIT.

First, we see Freckles:
who is always anxious to greet Mr. B when he gets home. She jumps on the table and starts squawking the news like she's a reporter from CNN. Now there is proof that since she spends the whole day snoozing on the back of the sofa, it is all made up.
Bitty is senior cat but doesn't enjoy it much. All her energy goes to being grumpy.
Butterball is a few inches from Bitty. They coexist, but aren't congenial. Butterball has a gorgeous ruff around her neck. She looks like a  purebred, not the feral carport cat that is her true heritage.
You'd never guess Flossie, so small and demure looking sleeping in a chair, is the biggest hell raiser and spitfire of the whole crew. Her brother Freddie ran to hide under the sofa when the camera came out, so he's not represented today.
Giant Junior, he of the smudgy nose and furry toes. It's funny that he is so huge, yet his voice is so teeny he can barely be heard.
Trixie, napping in the kitchen. She needs to rest up so she'll be alert and ready to pester me during the night. No, three o'clock is NOT a fine time to play with a glitter ball. Especially in our bed!

That's a random sample of the furry fiends that rule our lives, caught while mostly being good, hardly the norm. It's still impossible to imagine life without them.

Do you have cat companions who've stolen your heart?

Have a great weekend!
Michele

We have two - Molly, 14, and Azalee,6. Molly was once a city street pick up and only allows us to hold her when she wants. Azalee was from a litter of six abandoned when only a couple of weeks old. She was held constantly and every afternoon expects one of us to pick her up and carry her around the house and yard. Love your fur family!
