Wednesday Whinnies

 

Hotesse: Wise neighs, everyone! It has been a while since we posted as #1 wasn't able to com and see us, but she cam yesterday so here we are.

I am currently sharing my field with one boyfriend. He is much younger and his name is Anatole. He is a nice chestnut boy, and he keeps me young! Ms. C left us in this field, because it is right by the house and also the flattest field, so more comfortable for my mature bones.

Violette: Pretty neighs, everyone! The flies are terrible at the moment. #1 would be happy to put fly masks on us but we remove them almost as soon as she puts them on, so we just have to put up with the pesky critters. She did bring lots if yummy apples with herm and that was fun. Here is a fun photo of the three of us. I am at the back, in the shade of the tree where there are fewer flies. The greedy V and H are right at the fence, hoping to get more apples. Of course, #1 is fair and sends lots my way. She has a pretty good aim!

She promised to come back on Friday. Maybe we can even get some snuggle shots for next Sunday!

Tama-Chan Tuesday

 

Tama-Chan: Well, he is here... something that looks a bit like those whipped cream toppings you sometimes have on top of ice cream. I haven't had a great deal to do with him yet. He is being kept in his quarters most of the time. Benny visits him, supervised, and things are apparently moving along really well on that score. I did meet him briefly when Mr. G and Ms. N came to visit.

There is a kitten pen arriving today so he will be able to spend more time downstairs. He is hissing fiercely every time Ollie gets close. Benny will teach him about that, I am sure.

In the interim, life carries on as usual. #1 has been taking the usual round of photos:

I have been trying out a new, super-sophisticated dangle:

#1 particularly likes the spread toe effect in the first one! And by the way, the black blob behind me is Benny!

Manly Monday

 

Ollie: It was SO HOT for a few days that I barely even wanted to go outside, but the severe heat broke yesterday and I celebrated!

You all know that I have a new brother. He is a tiny white puffball! #1 explained to me that he had never met a woofie and so would be very scared of me, and I had to be quiet. She has been bringing him downstairs for a few hours each day, in his carrier (she has ordered a bigger play pen) and I sit quietly close to him so he can get to know me. I hope he is going to like me!

Momo-Chan: It's my first mini-monday! I am discovering so many things. Firstly, I love to play!

When I first met my bro, Benny, he screamed at me and I was a little bit scared, but then he managed to get into my quarters and...

Benny: #1 has been keeping my new bro separate in what was once my quarters! She said I wasn't very nice to him when I first met him so we had to take things slowly. But she didn't shut the door completely when she left, so this is what she found when she returned:

I think we're going to be buddies!

The Big V: With everything that was going on last week, #1 didn't get to come and see us, so here is an earlier pic for you.

Snuggles on Sunday - The First Momo-Chan Snuggles!

 Tama-Chan: Hello, Dear Friends, and welcome to our SoS post. We are continuing to have connectivity problems (both phone and Internet) but are hoping that the intermittent appearance of the signal will enable us to post this.

#1 says that it is very important because it has the very first snuggle pics with baby Momo-Chan! This first one was taken by Mr.G:

He also snapped one of Ms. N holding the baby:

And #1 took a pic of him snuggling Momo-Chan!

We also had a visit from our friend, Ms. H, and she enjoyed Momo-Chan snuggles too!

All indications are that he will be a good snuggler!

Saturday Interruptus

 

Rainbow Sei: Our apologies, Dear Friends. We lost all communications for some reason yesterday evening, and nothing was back by the time #1 went to bed. This morning, she left really early for a horsey event. So, here is just one pic of me this week. We'll do better next week!

See you tomorrow for the regular SoS post!

Family Friday - The Newbie!

 

Tiny, tiny meows, everyone! I only arrived yesterday and the lady who cuddles me said that I have to do a blog post! What's a blog? What's a post? She tells me I already have lots of friends all over the world! What's the world?

I was born on March 28, and I have one brother who looks exactly like me. Our Mama is pure white too. She said that the identity of our Dad is a secret! I am a fluffy white kitty. I was born not very far from Dr. C's practice, and that is how #1 heard about me being available for adoption. I went there last Friday to get my full vet check and first round of shots and I came home today.

Oh yes! My name! I am still learning it myself. The lady called #1 says it is MOMOTARO (桃太郎). This guy is apparently a very famous legendary folk hero in a country far, far away, called Japan. If you like, you can read about him here. #1 spent a lot of time trying to think of a suitable name for me and when she thought of this one, she decided it was perfect. By the way, the "momo" means peach in Japanese and that is what I shall be called for short, Momo-Chan!

I am still a little confused about my new home. When I arrived, I was put in a comfortable suite, but all alone, so I did quite a bit of hiding. Every time I came out, she was there, going click!

She even took me downstairs, so I could meet some of my family. There was a beautiful lady cat. #1 told me she was the Queen. She was nice to me!

#1 says I will meet the others too. I am a little bit scared but she tells me they are all very nice. I like to climb up her leg to cuddle with her. She says I am going to be a champion snuggler!

Thankful Thursday

 

Benny: I am thankful that my new little brother is arriving today, although #1 has warned me that I won't meet him immediately. So, I am also thankful for the wonderful box that our latest (kitten) food delivery came in! #1 even got a video!
