Oh goody! Another party coming this weekend!

(Left)  Shadow (black) and her sister Salem, below, have returned for another vacation.  So many black kitties in, these couple of weeks.. Shadow is a bit independant and reserved around new people.  She often takes up temporary residence in one of the tree houses.. Her sister is the social butterfly of the family.  Both girls are doing great and keeping busy 'cat-watching'.... So much fun!

(Right) My adorable little Portia (grey) is looking forward to hearing all about her mom's big adventures on her current trip... This little cutie has spent many a Christmas with all of her friends here.  It would appear that she's made a few new friends this visit... They are a colorful duo... I wonder what language they speak!

(Left) BooBoo Bunny and his sister Max the calico, left yesterday.  I was commenting to their family that Boo here, seems much happier and calmer since he's had a big change of diet... He isn't the cuddliest buggsie that I know.... but I couldn't help mention that he didn't once charge at my hands, when I was setting his cage up each morning... Well done Boo!  We'll keep those veggies rollin'....

(Right) Well, little Miss Trudy here, has been good as gold for me, since she arrived... She and her mom have become best pals lately... Trudy even helps her mom with her morning stretching regime... I'm sure that many cat owners have had the pleasure of their little furries doing the same thing... When she sees her mom's floor mat come out, with her mom lying on it, it's an open invitation for some lovin'..... Remember kitties... When the legs get raised... they eventually have to be lowered... Perhaps you could find another place to do your own back stretches..... that isn't directly underneath a human appendage!  For safeties sake and all!  No.  Really Trudy!  I'm not making that up!

(Below) And a couple more black kitties, makes 4 for the day...  Salem (in balloon) is the sister of Shadow, above.  This rambunctuous little bundle of energy, enjoys sleeping in her hot air balloon.... when she's not doing her relay race & laps, around the whole group... That's our little charmer Mimi (orange/white tabby) surveying the mornings events, before he winds down for his snooze... Our handsome big boy Eclipse (left of Mimi) is never that far from his friends... He and Mimi have chummed together before.  If Eclipse could climb higher up, he would.  So many kitties will be ringing in the New Year with their old pals....
