Runny Spook

Poor Spooky doesn't seem to be herself today. Suffering from the runs, for some reason. Maybe she's caught a chill from all this coldness? Or maybe one of the other mogs spooked her.....she always 'poos her pants' if they bug her. Anyway, she's laid out under a warm radiator.....cat litter within staggering distance The 'Usual Suspects' are well out of the way. Banished from Spookland. lol

The Old Ladies

Spooky and Muppet are our 'old ladies':o)

They're about 11 and very different characters, even though they're sisters. We've had them from being kittens.

Spooky the tuxedo type, is very vocal and outgoing......with a blummin annoying miaow...she's good with the old decibels and repeats!! She loves cuddling up....for ages:o)))

Muppet is shy and still won't come willingly to me when I call her.....only on her terms...which is usually to either cuddle up or hide behind me when the others play chase. She's a proper, shy semi-feral and so loves hidey holes, like the cat carrier she's pictured in.

Anyway, they have been lording it in my bedroom for weeks. Safe haven from the other mogs when they get too hyper..... and those nasty outsiders who like picking off and shooting animals just for the hell of it!! Muppet's wound has healed up and she ain't ever going to be allowed roam out again. But, a super, dooper cat run is going to be built for the mogs so they can go 'outside' and be safe.

So, last night. Me....suffering with stiff board like joints and a REALLY painful stiff neck..finds the old ladies in kitten mode. Hop, skipping and jumping all over the place. Play fighting, trilling away....just like the younger lot:o) They are happy.

Then they conked out......for AGES!!! Sleep:o) lol

And, my joints feel much better, along with neck. My girlies made Mummy better! lol

Baby It's Cold Outside

The mogs are not even attempting to escape outside.

Only Mother's cat, Jimmy, goes out...and then he hightails it back in pronto!

This cold, freezing weather is not nice on pampered paws.

Warm radiators are much nicer:o)

Jimmy curled up on fleecy cover

Baubles

Braved it yesterday.

Tree now has a star (we sacked the half naked angel). Tree also has a dozen or so baubles and angels adorning it.

Mogs thing it's great. This swatting the round, shiny thingies!! Chief pest is Henry. Arghhhh

The Mogs' Christmas Part 1...Putting up the Tree

Been gifted a Christmas tree...which is of the fibre optic type.

The mogs are having a whale of a time.....playing with the box that the tree came in. Even Jimbob is joining in the festive fun. They're playing the 'run through the tunnel' game'. lol

Tree has been upright for a whole three hours!!!

Stakeout

Junior is not a vegetarian. From time to time she needs her meat. So, today she is having tarragon chicken, the smell of which is wafting in the kitchen.

All of a sudden, she has twelve REALLY bestest feline friends. You should see them...all luvey and cute....fluttering eyelashes. The 'Pick me' look:o)

They are on stakeout duty:O) In the kitchen, by the oven, a couple by the kitchen door. Olive is in charge:O) lol

They think this chicken is for them.....and no-one else is gonna get their paws on it!! lol

The Education of a certain Mr Ringo Schooler

Bit of internal fratching going on here.

Did I mention that it has been cool here of late? Needing to keep cental heating on, sort of thing.

Anyway, Rings is made of sterner stuff.....but...it seems, he has learned his lesson.
