Laugh. Learn. Love cats.
Cupcake and Catmonkey are now best friends, and they share all kinds of adventures together during their outings.
They even go shopping together in the pet supply store.
Cupcake: Look, Catmonkey, birds! Do you think we can take one home?
This week, they attended our human’s birthday party on the coffee shop patio together, too.
Cupcake: It’s good to have a friend to do things with.
For the Christmas holiday, we participate in a gift exchnage with other cat bloggers called Secret Paws, and we opened our gifts on Christmas morning with the rest of the family. We rceived gifts this year from Buckwheat at Phin, Feather and Fur Gang.
Pierre took charge of the operation.
Pierre: Buckwheat sent us a BOX! This is awesome!
Pierre: Just doing inventory…
Pierre: Catnip sushi! I love sushi!
Pierre: I love sushi a lot.
Pierre: I’m going to pick out my own piece of sushi.
Pierre: Why are you laughing? You’ve never seen a cat eating sushi before?
Cupcake: Stop fooling around, Pierre! The tasty stuff is over here.
Cupcake: Gimme!
Newton: Chicken! I love chicken!
Ashton: I love chicken more! Bring that over here where I’m hiding under the tree.
Cupcake: We got feathers! I can tear these off for sure. They smell wonderful with catnip.
I had some health problems which required an inconvenient hospital stay recently, and a wondeful friend sent me a get-well sock monkey/cat. The Catmonkey now lives in Cupcake’s stroller, which has caused Newton to have some major face-offs with it.
I added a heating pad to the stroller (you can see the power cord for it at the bottom of the photo below), which gives the Catmonkey a warm lap. It has been chilly here over the past week, and Cupcake adores her new friend with the warm lap.
Despite all of the extra fur to keep him warm, Newton is also fond of Catmonkey’s warm lap and his rear end completely fills the front of the stroller when he sits there. Newton and Catmonkey are special friends.
Cupcake: This blanket argued with me, so I brought it to my favorite hangout.
Cupcake: It’s much more comfy to sit here with my blanket.
Cupcake: Softer under my black and white fur. This blanket is warm when it’s not fighting back.
Newton: Cupcake, you knocked things down with the blanket.
Cupcake: I didn’t mean to, Mr. Newton.
Newton: I’m sure you didn’t, kid. But I’m not going to be here when the humans find things knocked down from the tree. I usually get blamed for that.
