Cheese

Skye and Priscilla won't leave mum alone when she's eating cheese. A neighbor says Neko looks like a raccoon when he walks on the fence, so it has been confirmed by outside opinion; we knew he was part raccoon since the day he came home from the Marina.

Where do I begin?

Here is Tianni in characteristic ink blot/blob mode. Tonight, Skye was smelling something on the ground about a third of the way into the street...yes, she likes to keep her mommies on their toes! Neko's nose has healed from a nasty infection. It was very swollen, then one day it began to drain and return to its normal size. Frosti did his business on my bed recently. At first, we didn't know which of the kitties had done the deed. When I laid down to rest, my pillow smelled, well, fermented. I thought it simply needed washing until I reached over to feel my sheets, and they were damp. Whewwwwwww! The next day, mom caught Frosti spraying the chair in the garage. Then she asked me if I thought there was anywhere else in my room he might have went. I thought for a moment and realized he had been climbing around in my closet and over a pile of folded blankets only a week or so earlier. I went to check, and yes, they'd been "marked." I recalled that day having thought there was a whiff of kitty pee in the air....

Today, mom found a pillow with a big yellow stain. She barely had to show me and I could smell Frosti's brew. Poor wittle Fwosti! Now he has to stay outside. He wasn't much of an indoor cat to begin with and has never let us pet him :(. Now, he spends his afternoons on the patio and still sleeps with his brother and sister.

These days, Neko curls up into a tight ball while sleeping. He looks like a tiger shrimp straight from the skillet!
