Strike a Pose

Lady Cats

Miss Billie and Cricket love to strike poses in the evening. Usually around bedtime when the house is quiet and it's just me downstairs yet.
Like me, they do not like a lot of noise; loud talking, loud music, loud television. I'm wondering if some of the people in this house have hearing loss... ;)

Yesterday was a rather useless day. I did some crafting and then fell asleep. I have been so tired! I feel like a cat. Get up, eat a little, wash up, go sleep.

My husband is in the "planning stages" of working on things around the house. Um, okay... I know how this goes. He refuses to do any more woodwork stripping and staining thanks to Toeshee. He has made our doorways his personal scratching posts. He even manages to get his girth all the way up the door frame!

Other than house in disrepair issues and being worn out, there's not much going on. The kitties are doing well. Though Billie is being skittish and a little grumpy. She's eating really well and likes to be pet and cuddled, but when I try to clean her eyes or get a knot out she gets really irritable. Maybe, I can bribe her with some treats.

I will try to get some blog visiting in today and tomorrow.
Happy Thursday!

Now we can be Naughty again!

Rocking around the Christmas Tree

Hello, Cricket here. I hope you all had a lovely Christmas and received all the gifts you wanted, no matter how Naughty you were.
I like to perch by the tree to relax and admire the lights. If you Bigafy this last picture though you can see who decided to pretend to be a pressie and sit under the tree. Pesky little bother Toeshee!

The Teenagergirl is on the mend slowly from her tonsilectomy. She is still quite hurty and taking a medicine for pain. She is eating soft food like mashed potatoes and soup and ice cream. Stuff she likes anyway, so that's good.

Momma is trying to help us blog and visit whenever she gets a free moment. She is looking forward to a quiet night alone in the family room with just us kitties and some lit candles and a cup of tea. She has been fighting the joint hurties, so we must be patient with her.

We hope you all are having a fantastic holiday week and we look forward to checking in on you all soon!

Miss Billie's living room tour

Hi everyone! It's Billie here to show you Momma's beloved fireplace mantle and the birdies on our tree. The birdies are not real. I can tell because they have glitter on them and they are not singing.

Us kitties have our own stocking. I hope we get some yummy treats!
Momma hung the pretty Artists Trading Cards that Mommy Karla sent. The one with the four days of Christmas kitties is the one Mommy Karla made.

You can see a picture of our Beloved Tookie in the heart shaped frame. Momma still cries for her. I am the only kitty who knows this, so don't tell anyone. I miss her too, as she was my older sister.

It stays very dimly lit in our living room in the winter even if the daytime. Momma says to pretend it is twilight in the Summer time.

It is going to storm here soon. Momma wants to get us enough food and some human food so we do not run out in case it gets Really Bad. I am so glad that I am a pampered Persian Princess and do not have to worry about going out in an icy blizzard.

We hope you all stay snuggly. Please pray for those animals that do not have homes. Momma hates winter because of all the homeless furbabies that have no homes to turn to. This makes her cry too. I will have to sit by her and purr for her tonight to help her not feel so sad.

Sending Love and Purrs,
~Miss Billie~

Thankful Thursday

Cody managed to maintain some manners while this picture was taken. All bets were off when the turkey was served today though! Oh the strongly suggesting for food! (Cat's Do Not Beg, they strongly suggest that you give them what they want!)
Even prim little Billie crawled into my lap for something yummy. I fed her out of my hand, bless her heart. :)

I hope everyone had a Happy Day, no matter what they did.
Hugs from me and the Kitties!

Snuggle Down Sunday

He blinks upon the hearth rug
And yawns in deep content,
Accepting all the comforts
That Providence has sent
