All of a sudden, the cats started fighting a whole bunch and Sunnie spent her days hiding under the bed again.
We think it’s because Mommy cleaned the living room and it was too big and spacious. So we re-filled it with boxes, baskets, and a puzzle feeder and now they’re (almost) friends again.
Because we have two crazy kittens (well, one particularly crazy kitten – Finley!), we didn’t get a regular Christmas tree this year.
Instead, we bought a tiny living Christmas tree that we’ll keep for years and years. But I still decorated it!
Finley was still interested in the tiny tree!
It’s a pretty little tree, huh?
I saw Finley jump up on the bookshelf thingy, so I decided I needed to get up there, too!
Finley is still king of the mischief makers, though.
We put up some shelves for the cats and Finley mostly uses them as a chance to attack Sunnie!
Finley started feeling really bad and it turned out he had urinary crystals that nearly blocked his urethra. So he had to spend a lot of time at the vet getting fluids and having tests done. Good thing the vet techs there are so nice! Brenda gave him lots of cuddles and sent us a picture.
Now he’s healthy again and enjoying his favorite spot – the window perch. He even found a bug on the other side of the window that he was very interested in.
Sunnie missed her brother and was happy to have him back.
I missed him, too! I’m glad he’s feeling well again.
On the afternoon of Election Day, I was glued to the computer looking at the Electoral College map. It was less an interest in politics, and more an interest in anything involving maps! I made a special announcement every time Biden or Trump won another state.
And then the whole next day…I basically just stared at the map some more.
We celebrated a socially distanced Halloween this year!
First, we carved pumpkins and Sunnie was very curious about this ritual.
We also made a sign for our candy table.
I dressed up as an orange tabby, like Sunnie! Meow!
We didn’t knock on doors this year, but our town did a lot of candy tables, bowls, and chutes.
How awesome is this black cat pumpkin someone painted?
Despite the unusual Halloween, I still brought in a big candy haul! My favorites were Sour Patch Kids and Kit Kats.
Once a week, I have a live Zoom science class. We drew our hands and thought of things we wondered about. I wondered how our fingers move.
I invented a new game called Cat Ball and sometimes we play it out in the yard when Daddy is on lunch break.
Sunnie is feeling much more comfortable in our house. She comes out to play and lounge around.
She loves Finley. They love to play together…
…and nap together.
They LOVE cardboard boxes. Every time we get a new box, we just throw it in the living room.
She’s still mostly scared of us humans, but Finley loves to hang out with me.
We hung up some paper bats for Halloween and Finley was VERY interested in them.
He also continues to be king of the naps.
The roller coaster that I made for Finley looked like so much fun, I had to take a ride on it, too.
