Around a year ago, Mars came inside

Around a year ago, Mars came inside for the first time in months after being left behind. She was so happy and surprised to find a human back in the house after so long. She still wakes me up some nights plaintively meowing loudly, if we haven’t been cuddling, just to make sure I’m still here.

I’m extremely sceptical, but it is worth a try.

I’m extremely sceptical, but it is worth a try. Of course, I’ll need 8 more, if they accept it. But, it would be awesome to reduce the clay dust that ends up everywhere from 100+ lbs of litter every month …

Another 72 cans

Another 72 cans = 12 days of wet food for the cats. So much food they need! So many cans to recycle!

Muninn and Blót

Muninn and Blót have a very close relationship, and are often found cuddling together. They are cousins, but when Blòt was very young Mun would let her suckle for comfort and they’ve been close ever since.
