My furry children

Today I am thankful for my furry babies.  I love my kitties.  I make this post today because it is the one year anniversary of Popcorn's passing.
Rest in peace, Popcorn.  You are missed.
For Mother's Day 2014 my present was a cute little kitten.  We named him Mighty Mouse
Such a cute little thing, now he's huge!
He likes to lay in some very strange positions.



He and Meow-meow are partners in crime.
Unloading books from the bookshelf.
Getting into my cross stitch stuff.
Helping me put away Christmas decorations.
They play together.  Goodness he's almost as big as Meow-meow.


He's a very helpful cat.
Every morning when I sweep, he flops himself down right where I'm sweeping.  
Even though he's a big, fat, tub of lard, if he fits, he sits.

We just love our silly Mighty Mouse
He's a lovable, sweet cat

Then, last year, a couple of days before Thanksgiving, Nathan surprised me with a trip up to Logan to pick up two sweet kittens; a pure bred Ragdoll and a Ragdoll/Africat mix.  I was so excited.
On the car ride home with them.  They snuggled me the whole way.
Sugar Dust, my Ragdoll.  She is such a sweet and lovable ball of fluff.
Anubis our Ragdoll/Afri-cat mix.  He's a little shy, but very fun to play with.
We have loved having these two sweet cats in our has for the past year.  Here are some memories.
This is where she likes to sleep.
Playing in the Christmas tree.

Being content in my lap.
Sleeping while I fold laundry.
They have to be wherever I am, and then they nap.
They are excellent cross stitch helpers.
So sweet.
Helping me do dishes
Hanging out on the rocking horse.

Napping in Lion Heart's science project

He loves to hide under the covers.
If she fits, she sits

Acrobat cat

Perching on the banister.

They all make great playmates 

Again, if she fits, she sits.
She loves belly rubs
Helping fold laundry.
Snuggling Space Man Spiff

Snuggling me
This is how I found her one day.

She really loves to help me do laundry.

Meow-meow and Mighty Mouse, partners in crime.

And this is how he gets comfortable



Anubis is the exact opposite of Mighty Mouse.  Instead of sitting right in  the middle of my morning sweeping, he chases everything.  Sweeping time = playtime.
So I endeavored to sort our plethora of Legos.  She decided that a great napping place was in the box of  Legos.  
She fell asleep in Meow-meow's stuffed animal bucket.

I had entirely too much help sorting Legos

Every single time, she would plop right where I was working.

Found her on the stairs like this the other day.

And last but not least, me holding a Lion cub in Mexico.
