Happy Winter Solstice

May your day be full of warmth and light and love.

Also, FYI, it is super hard to take a picture while a kitty is in need of love and keeps snuggling your picture taking arm. (Not the kitty in the picture, obviously.)

Staying Warm

Awesome

Izzie has been trying to get the cats to interact with her for months. Now, she has a way. Pure genius.

Izzie's New Sound

Is only heard when she's terrorizing the cats.

Piercing.

Wordless Wednesday: Our Kitties

Children of the corn kitties?

I just vacuumed there!

Today we've been on a major clean up kick. I washed the kitchen walls and baseboards, Phil mowed and raked the lawn, we brought down the furniture from upstairs and then I decided to vacuum.

I wiped around the house. Moving furniture, doing my mom proud with my efficiency. Then I turned around.

There was a freaking dead mouse on the floor.

WTF!! After I shrieked in horror and shock, I thought to myself...but I just vacuumed there.

How did a freaking dead mouse get into the middle of the floor? No cat in sight. (Don't get me started on the fact that there was a mouse in the house and we have TWO cats. Lazy buggers.) Izzie playing contentedly with her toys. Ugh.

I shouted for Phil to come save me, thinking he'd be grossed out just like me. Nope. He ponied up and got rid of the mouse like it was nothing. Sweet. Honey, you take care of the rodents and I'll kill all the spiders.

Fun with Argyle

Izzie discovered Argyle on her favorite chair.
Her favorite chair because it's the bounciest.

Starting off with some pats.
Note that her breakfast is in the other hand.

Oooooh, long and furry. What's this called
Breakfast now in mouth...

The tail holding makes it hard to chew...

ESCAPE!

And then we were off on our bikes for our Saturday run to the neighbourhood bakery. Izzie enjoyed some pain au chocolate which she gobbled up with glee! Hope you are all having a lovely Saturday as well.
