Hobbies

Abby: We are cats, and we have many hobbies. Like humans and other creatures, we enjoy the pursuit of happiness, but even more so, we enjoy the pursuit of each other! As you can see, Stygia is very tempted by my posture to make her next ninja-move as I dangle my ears and whiskers precariously over Mr. R's chair-seat:

When I clean, I spend a lot of time biting at this paw-pad:

Right after anyone takes a shower, I love to hop right into the tub and sit right down. Part of the fun is watching the water-droplets move like little living bugs down the side of the sliding doors and the sides of the tub. Also, the floor of the tub is always nice and warm! One of her friends told Ms. C that I am "a bathroom monster in training." What does that mean?

Stygia: No one is going to admit to doing this. We both love to play with mice, we both carry them all over the house, so I can't tell you who did this. And even if I could, I would not! Cat's honor.

Finally, we have a lot of sun here, and as it moves through the living room, I move with it, even squishing ears if necessary, to get the most out of it:

For the Record!

Abby: Mom spent a long time today trying to catch me in the act. An act I do not perform. I tell you, I do not stick my paw in my water-bowl repeatedly and then lick it. I drink normally, just like this:

I did not just do what I said I do not do, and you will never catch me at it. Never.

It's a really yucky day here today, everything is coated in ice, and the air is foggy. We are very glad we are indoor kitties today.

Here is a close-up of the poor, icy birch-tree. You can biggify for more detail:

One last thing I would like to set straight. Stygia started a false rumor that I have a stinky bum. It's not true at all. In fact, she is the one with the stinky bum, but I don't complain about hers, I try to help her out with it but she kicks me away.

I take care of my entire family!
