Manly Monday With Momo

 

Momo-Chan: Happy new week, everyone! I'm so happy you could join us for our weekly round-up of handsome boys! This week, we will start with The Big V as #1 got a pretty nice shot of him. She says that, from a distance, he looks a bit like a unicorn in the forest!

Next up is Ollie with a nice outdoor shot :

Here is a nice one of Dragon Ryū taken by Mr. G:

And here is Benny The Black enjoying a prime window perch!

As for me, well what can I say? I bask in my utter floofiness!

Wishing you all a lovely week!

Snuggles on Sunday

 

Benny The Black: Hello, Dear Friends, and thank you for joining us on our weekly SoS post! This week, we'll be kicking off with the horses as they have been doing some serious snuggling of late. It turns out that Ms. L has developed a special bond with The Big V:

Whilst Violette adores Ms. T and vice-versa!

Of course, she also still loves #1!

As does The Big V!

On the home front, Mr. G snagged this great photo of #1 snuggling with "Ninja Dragon" Ryū!

As well as her snuggling with Ollie:

Ollie and Momo have been seen together quite a bit!

As have I with Momo:

And with my little bro, Ryū:

#1 got a shot of Ryū getting snuggled by Mr. G and Ms. N on his birthday:

And lastly, here I am, getting a kiss from #1 while Ollie looks on:

I hope you enjoyed this week's snuggle offerings. We all enjoy our snuggles, even if Ryū and Momo would sometimes have you believe they don't!

Saturday Sac...

 

Ryū-Chan: It's me again, and guess what? I'm once again in a bag, or "sac" as we say in these parts! #1 says I'm making a habit of it.

Feline Friday

 

Ryū-Chan: Meows, everyone! We apologise for being so late in posting today. #1 has been preoccupied with some important matters that we will discuss next week. Anymeow, here is a photo of me taken by Mr. G which will show you just how sleek and athletic I am!

Momo-Chan: This one doesn't exactly show me as being sleek and athletic, but I have to spend a great deal of time keeping my fluffiness fluffy!

Benny The Black: Personally, I see myself as a literary cat.

Tongue Out Thursday

 

Ollie: When Mr. G and Ms. N came over for little Dragon's birthday, Mr. G took lots of photos, as usual. Among them was this one of me. #1 says my tongue looks like a work of art!

When he saw that, my little bro, Benny, didn't want to be left out!!!

We make a pretty good team, don't we?

Wordless Wednesday

 

Three on Tuesday - It's Ryū-Chan's Birthday!

 

#1 here. After losing Sei-Chan, then Da Beebs, and finally Genji, I adopted Benny and Momo and had just one Abyssinian left at home, the one and only Queen Tama. At the back of my mind, there remained a wish for one more Abyssinian kitten to raise but I wasn't sure how it would happen. Then Jackie, whom I met when she was blogging, introduced me to Vivien who had been a small breeder in the UK, and had moved to Brittany with her cats. One thing led to another and she messaged me one day to say that she was giving up breeding following her last litter of just one boy kitten, and would I be interested in adopting him? I of course said yes and he arrived at Poupounette Central in late July 2023. His official pedigree name was Ultimo de Pippin's Pride, but as all my cats have Japanese names, he quickly became Uryū (Rain Dragon), shorted to Ryū-Chan. Here he is shortly after birth with his Mama, Picccolo ("Pickle"):

He was a real little elf as a baby!

This was on the day he came home!

He settled in very quickly:

Momo and Benny were quick to adopt him:

He hung on to those outsized ears for a while!

This pic, from November 2023, shows him with Queen Tama, Benny and Momo!

He enjoyed his first Christmas:

Here he is on his 1st birthday:

Life was full of mischief!

And the love of his #1:

When he was still a little thing, he liked to hang out with Queen Tama:

Always curious about everything:

With Momo as his #1 partner in crime!

He was a big fan of the cat run right from the start:

In no time, it was his 2nd Birthday!

Life is never dull with him around!

His ears are now just a tad smaller relative to the rest of his head!

He's always happy to help with chores:

Unlike all of his Aby predecessors, he wriggles so much that it's hard work to clip his claws, and Dr. C does it when he goes in for his shots.

Can you find him in this shot with Ollie, Benny and Momo?

He still loves the cat run!

And hanging out with his brother, Momo:

He has to be manhandled into photos with his #1!

He loves to share a tune...

He is a typical Aby "acrocat":

But he also loves snagging the prime spot on #1's lap in the evenings!

We wish a VERY HAPPY 3rd BIRTHDAY to our own little Dragon, from #1, Benny, Momo, Ollie, Vidock and Violette!
