Rocking The Cone

Walter Dudey had to get a cone ...

He gets very matted every year, and he won't let me brush it or cut it off!

This time it got so matted that it looked like he has two hard shells on each side of his body.

He looked like Gamera!

And he was licking and ripping the dreadlocks off, so when I took him to the vets, he had to wear the cone.

Of course he wasn't happy about it at all.... But Greedy works through the obstacles that would normally come with wearing a con for a cat.

He liked the extra meals and treats he was getting, and he still manages to eat his food , and the everyone else's food!

Hime approved wet food

Apparently she likes the Beauty Food 

Big Baby and Little Zum

Mr. Pinky is very inspiring in his poses!

Little stretch here....

The trademark Gay Hands...

You gotta crimp up your legs too, and you are Thor!

Classic Hime Pumpkin Pic

This is one of my favourite pic of Hime. I think she was about 4 years old? 

When we just moved into our house. 

Life is unfair. 

Some people (cats) are just born with that Star Factor. 

And Black cats rule!

Mr Cutie

I had a special date with Walter , he came to sit with me ... mainly to knead on my cardigan and I took it off him so now the blanket...

He looked a bit bugged when I stroked his head. So I scratched his chin and he moved his head away ! “You’re killing my Kneading Buzz, Mom!!!" 

But isn’t he just so cuuute! 

Zum in Tummy and Her Sisters

I wonder, did Zum know she was surrounded by her sisters when she was in my tummy??

I was always falling sleep after work during my pregnancy.


I got a moon pillow to support my big tummy, and of course,
PRINCESS OF MISCHIEF, as known as HIME,  took kindly to it!

Cookie was always cuddly, she'd come and sit on me (or my lap), she's warm and not heavy!

Zum, can you hear the "Errrghhhh!!!" from in there??  

Hime is My Best Friend, too!

Hime was the first of our cats to really take interest in Zum as a baby.



Funnily, Zum's first real word was PA-ZZY, and Ha-Mi, which was her interpretation of HIME, was last. Probably harder to pronounce as a 1 year old.

Zum would say her favorite was everyone, it would change day to day.

We went to Japan in September 2016. My hubby went back first, and we were FTing, and he was showing us the house , the guys, and Hime.
Zum saw them and started getting sad.
She said in her newly acquired Japanese sentences, 「おうちに帰りたいよー」(I wanna go home)

She saw Hime giving buggies to Shane, and said she wanted to see Hime.

She missed home, the guys, especially Hime. Obachan's house was fun, but I think that was the first time she got the concept of missing home, and someone other than her parents.

Now when we are away, she says she wants to see Hime, and she says Hime is her favorite. She only wants Hime when she's sad.

Zum, Hime loves you too!
Hime hits all her brothers, but never you!!
