Happy New Year!

Best buds

Hey, who touched my beautiful fluffy tail?

Momo's "I'm cold" face

Two-Headed Cat

Momo's tail looks surprised he caught the feather

Kitties in a row

Fluffy tail and tasty hand

Pillow hog

Momo refuses to scoot over for Romeo. He's in his selfish toddler stage.

Friday's Funny Fiko

Strange things fly through the air at my house

Put a light bulb in him and he could be the chandelier

Partnerless tango

Fiko-sensei, is this right?

Momo, watch the master in action. Now your turn.

Choco-Vanilla Swirl

These two always remind me of chocolate-vanilla swirl frozen yogurt...

Hey dude, look at my handstand push-up.

Cat cam - sharing the pillow

Skydiving Momo

Someone doesn't want me saving

The ctrl key from my laptop went missing one day and when it turned up, it looked a little... harassed.

Floor exercises

Fiko's paws turn bright pink after a rough session of playing.

Lovely ballet arms, Fiko! And plie...

Pretzel

Don't sit on me!

Heater = Cat Magnet

New Best Friend - the Heater!

Fed up with the cold

Momo says, "Romeo, wake me when the cold snap is over."

Argh, when are we moving to St. Barth's??!

Cold Thanksgiving weekend

Cold is relative, but for here, it was pretty cold. I spent most of my Sunday in the bedroom with the space heater on so we wouldn't turn into catcicles and peoplecicles.

Is Momo trying to tell me something?

Like, Mama, turn on the heater! After this dramatic cry for attention, I turned on the heater.

Hiding

Fluffy Tail

Squishy Fiko

Fiko squished himself between 2 pillows and he looked so tiny!

Being Silly

Mo-moflauge

He got under there himself!

Jiji hearts Robby

Meet Jiji

Jiji parked herself under my car in Oakland about 4 months ago. I fed her leftover ribs from lunch, but she was so skinny and starved looking that I brought her home. Stanford Cat Network, the group I volunteer with, agreed to take her into the fold. After a visit to the vet, we found out she's about 15 months old and has a heart murmur, thyroid problems, and needed major dental work. Since she's so old, we didn't want her living in a cage at the vet's office so decided to foster her at my home. We put her in our kitchen behind a baby gate since it was clear early on that she didn't get along with other cats.

She had lots of teeth pulled, and since she didn't have many to begin with, she's nearly toothless now. Her thyroid meds have helped her gain about 2 lbs (she was about 4.5 lbs when I first found her). She's a lap cat who loves Rob especially - he wraps her in a blanket like a burrito and they watch TV together every day. She thinks I'm alright, but I'm no Rob! When she walks in the door, she runs her little arthritic body across the room to see him and wails "Raaaahhh" in her old lady voice. Here is a picture of the "Raaahh" look. She's wearing hot pink "soft paws" since her hobby is attacking things that don't stand on 2 legs and get within 5 feet of her heiness's presence.

Originally, the plan was to find her a nice home, but she seems to love ours so much that I think she may be here to stay to live out the rest of her old age wrapped like a burrito.

Momo helps me with attachments

Is this why my laptop is broken?
