Sleeping Chani

Chani: Ah what sweet bliss it is to sleep on my purple bedspread. Purple is the color of royalty and mom calls me her little Princess.


Of course, I am a Princess with these cute little jellybean toes and kissable nose.

9 in boxes revisited

Remember when 9 could fit in one of these postal boxes? Ah, he was sooo tiny then!

Well, he's not so tiny anymore, but he still loves boxes.

Here he is looking up at Ceiling Cat from the comfort of box filled with papers. He loves to play with those papers late at night... sigh...

Sleepy time.

All curled up.
Being sweet and cuddly and begging me with his eyes to put the flashy box thing down and give him love

Almost Wordless Wednesday

Chani goes up on the window ledge above the patio door too.

Sneaky 9

Wow! The view from this window ledge is simply amazing. I can see out over the patio and look at everyone from on high.


But wait! What is this I spy?

Ooh Chani didn't finish all her food. I am feeling a bit peckish and you know what they say: Waste not, want not!

I'm not doing anything at all, Mom! I'm just hanging out here.

Oop, missed some!

Nom nom nom...

As a point of clarification, Chani gets her food served at the top of her tower. 9 get his at the regular food spot in the kitchen. This way, Chani doesn't steal 9's food like she used to when they were kittens and she gets her own spot relatively safe from 9's coveting of her food. However, Chani doesn't finish her food in one sitting. She eats, goes away and comes back to eat more. Still, there are usually leftovers and 9 is determined that he shall partake of her serving and finish it up whether Chani is done or not... Sort of explains why he's a bit bigger than she is!

Sleepy time


Last night, 9 lounged with me on the couch. I had no idea where dear little Chani was until I went to bed. There she was on 'her' side of the bed all sleepy cute. After this photo, she did roll on her side for some chest and belly rubs. Sigh...

Now, can anyone answer me this question? Why do kitties always sleep on the side of the bed that is closest to the bathroom?

Snuggles on a Sunday

Lovely snuggle time and showing off my blue hair and short bangs.

One of the things about living by myself with the two kitties is that we never have photos of the three of us. This one was taken by me with my camera phone. I have an Android phone... it's so hard to figure out where the "Take Photo" button when not looking at it.

Ah well, it's all good. I'm very happy living with these two. And not having a person taking photos of me is not all that bad especially considering I usually despise photos taken of me. I'm so difficult to please hehe

Whatcha looking at,9?

9 is clearly fascinated by what is happening below him. What could it be?

Oh dear, Chani is enjoying the sweet smells of my dirty laundry. Yes, I insist that the scent is sweet and not sweaty gross!


Chani would love it if I left my clothes out like this all the time...

40

Hello All!

Forgive me for not posting new Chani and 9 adventures. This past weekend and on through to Monday, I was busy celebrating (and dreading) my 40th birthday. I had a few friends come up from Los Angeles and spend 4 days with the kitties and me.

Needless to say much fun was had and much food was eaten. Both Faye and Tina are slightly allergic to cats and kept the kitties out of the guest room as much as possible. The funny part is that 9 and Chani don't go into the guest room all that often. However, with the futon bed pulled out and PEOPLE in that room, oh boy was that the place to be! 9 did his best to sneak into the guest room behind Tina's back. 9 lay on Faye's lap as she played on my iPad while lying on the couch. Earlier, Chani lay between Faye and myself.

Despite allergies and 9 being his lovable naughty self, both of my friends had a blast playing with him. They tried to play with Chani too. Tina loved how Chani would fall over and play while lying on her back.

Faye stated her preference for Chani (but not in 9's presences) but did say that 9 is a sweetiepie/cutiepie boy too.

Anyhow, that is my excuse and I'm sticking with it. Now, I am off to enjoy my midlife crisis lol...

Rail dancing

Dancing on the railing between the dining room/office and the sunken living room. 9 has fallen off of this railing once. He hasn't since.

I, on the other paw, have not fallen at all. Surely this display of sure-footed prowess must be rewarded, yes?

Yes. Mom gives me as many cuddle and pets and snuggles as I can stand.

Conferring on how to be so utterly adorable Mom breaks down and gives lots of treats.

Staring at the flashy box thing.

Flashback Friday

Just thought I'd repost some kitten pictures of 9 and Chani. Here is 9 being adorable looking at me from my computer desk. That little nose... so kissable!

Chani in a bag. So tiny and still a little unsure about the flashy box thing.

Snuggling together on the Flaming Blanket of Doom.

So cute.

Hope you have a great weekend!

Sleepy Saturday night.

I am becoming such a couch potato. I just love sitting on my couch and my darling 9 and Chani cuddle up on me. However, as you can see above, it can get a bit difficult. I do have quite the lap, but, my kitties have gotten so big, they don't fit on my lap. So, last night, 9 decided to plop on top of Chani... back in the day, they could lie on top of each other and still sleep. These days, not so much. 9 is just too heavy!

Chani moved not too long after I took the above photo. But, she came back pretty quickly after I moved 9 over a bit.

Chani settled back into her spot.

9 curled up next to me and used my knee as a pillow.

I just sat there for about an hour or so, watching tv and playing on my iPad. Talk about heaven!

Hope you had a wonderful weekend!
