Chani's perch

Chani has two spots in the closet. The lower one where the pajamas are in a bin and the upper one. I had to put a blanket there just for her. I guess it is good that I don't share the closet with any other humans. Sigh...

As for Chani, she's quite pretty while she lounges on the green blanket.

But, she does have to look down below to make sure that Sheamus Popoki minds his manners and doesn't try to sleep on the pajamas... That is also her place, after all. And she must have them both! Although, I did find 9 sitting under her on the pajamas, trying to whap her from below. He was not successful. AND I had to get them both down before they hurt themselves or broke something...

Toesies and Nosies

 9 has such lovely black toesies. So striking against his pure white fur.

And Chani has delicious pink toes. Always makes me think of strawberry ice cream when I see them.

And they both have such lovely boopable nosies...

Marlene's plotting something...

 Dear Furiends,

We found these sketches in Mom's sketch book. We're not sure what is going on at all, but Mom bought some pink felt and sewing thread. We also heard some mutterings about costumes at Petco being too expensive...

 Do you think we should be worried?

Worriedly purring yours,
9, Chani and Sheamus Popoki

9 being stern

Yeah, right. This little boy look stern? I don't think so.

However, he is keeping an eye on me to make sure I post on the blog and doing a very good job of it.

Oooh, it's Tockstober! I shall have to make sure I take proper 'tocks photos very soon. 9! Here's another thing to make sure I do properly!

Warm Laundry. You are mine!

Mine. All mine.

No, you may not have them. No, you may not put them away. They are mine.

Marlene here. I took the laundry out of the dryer. I walked out of the room to get a piece of laundry that had dropped and returned to see Chani on the clothes. There was less than 30 seconds for me to leave the room and for Chani to climb onto the clothes. Granted, she was already sleeping on the bed, but really, hardly any time passed at all. It was very hot in San Jose today, but I think there is enough of a chill in the air for Chani to appreciate the warmth.

Sheamus Popoki learning his lessons

The other day, Chani said that it was very comfortable to sleep on pajamas. I decided to try it out myself. Well, I couldn't sleep on the pajamas because Chani would get mad at me. That is her spot (see, I'm a bit smarter than everyone seems to think in this household). So, I slept in Mom's exercise and pottery T-shirt bin. And I have to say, Chani is right! It is very comfy.

Mom walked in and saw me. She giggled and went for her camera. Then, she gave me some ear skritches and pets. I purred.

Pottery on a Thursday

Hi All, Marlene here. Just wanted to share some of my kitty pottery. The meditating kitty on the right in the picture above sold. As did a few collections of the kitty cards you see below the plates.

I also painted a platter with my yin yang kitties. This platter did not sell, so I donated it to a local rescue for their fundraiser along with another small dessert plate with the yin yang kitties on them

And the above plate also did not sell, so I donated it to The Cat House on the Kings 20th Anniversary Celebration.  The rescue from which I adopted 9 and Chani is loosely affiliated with the Cat House on the Kings and I just felt the need to give a little back to them.

Anyhow, I hope you enjoyed this little side trip of mine. Thank you to 9, Chani and Sheamus Popoki for letting me take over the blog today!
