kudzu & juniper groom each other

I love when I catch Juniper and Kudzu loving on each other.

But for some reason, grooming always inevitably leads to fighting.

Do your cats do this? I don’t know if one grooms the other a bit too aggressively, or if they need to maintain who’s the boss even when loving on each other. Palpatine and Persy do it, too.

a night of wine & felines

Last night Hellcat came over for a wine night. We probably spent most of the night talking about and playing with cats. Total cat ladies, yes we are.

I decided to wear my cone cat shirt from Pattern & Paw. It seemed appropriate.

I love how Persy is totally photobombing this picture.

Persy immediately laid claim to Hellcat’s purse.

Best things ever: wine, cats, and Girl Scout Cookies.

kitty playtime
Hellcat enjoyed playing with my cats.

I love my Juneyboon.

kitty kisses
I tried to get a picture with all of the kitties, but Palpy was being a butthead and wouldn’t get near us. I’m guessing he smelled Hellcat’s kitties on her.

Okay, enough with the camwhoring.

cats enjoy the nice weather

The weather yesterday was pretty nice, so we opened up the windows. The cats seemed pretty happy about that.

They all watched as we did yard work. I think they wanted to come out and help. Or just explore and run around, more likely. Kudzu was pretty vocal about it. Even Persy meowed a few times, which is unusual of her.

After we came back in, we threw off our shoes and the cats immediately went nuts over them. I don’t know what it is about grass and foot stink, but the cats really seem to love it.

take your place at the dinner table

Whoever says that cats don’t love their owners knows nothing about cats. Why else would my cats sit around the dining table with me, each in their own chair, for several hours as I work? They could just as easily go hang out somewhere else.

Juniper, diagonal from me (cat hair-covered chair = sign of a cat lady!)

around the dining table: across from me

Palpatine, across from me

around the dining table: on my lap

Kudzu, on my lap (though not for long, because he didn’t want to share the chair!)

cats play with & promptly break their new toy

I bought the cats a new dangly thing-on-a-string toy. Within five minutes, they broke it.

ikea cats

We moved our smaller Expedit into the bedroom nook so we can get bigger desks in our office. Of course the cats were curious, so when a couple of them jumped into the bookcase, we grabbed the other two and stuck them in their own cubes. It’s somewhat rare to get all four cats in one picture. Well, a good picture, anyway.

Here’s another shot of all my kitties on Ikea furniture, passed out on the orange Tylosand couch.

I bet they are dreaming of being in this video:
