Random quips from a random girl with too much time on her hands, a head filled with far too much imagination and only one blog outlet to throw it all into.

Got Cats?

We adopted Fenway & Clare ONE year ago today! They were so tiny! Just 4 months old, awwhhh. They turned 1 in June!

Day One - Fenway
Day One - Clare

Snagged a couple silly pics of Clare yesterday :)
Look at that tongue in the first 2 pics, hehehe

"I told you NO pumpkins this year!" actually, she had juuust started to yawn.


The Progression of Fenway...
(I wish we had something similar for Clare, but her size is not quite as "impressive") ;)
Fen is 20 lbs (and was at 1 year)

Things I've learned about them in the last 365 days:
  • Fenway is more like a dog than a cat. Case in point: she plays fetch - yes, she actually brings the elastic back to you; scratch her butt and she'll lick you - see Fenway Lovin'; she lays in the sink until you turn it on, which does not cause her to get out. She lays under the water cleaning herself and drinking it. Same with the shower.
  • Clare is a Diva. Yup - with a capital D. She climbs everything she can, including the screen door, shower curtains, and the 2 box springs we have hiding in our closet. She also jumps up and over my computer which is on a TV tray, just to prove that she can get up there without touching it (she gets sprayed with water when she lands on it)...it's kind of like the old brother/sister game where you have your finger an inch away from their face and exclaim, "I'm not touching you, I'm not touching you!" She is also part human and knows exactly what she should not be doing (i.e. aforementioned climbing objects) and will wait until you turn your back to proceed with the shenanigans. She is also very proper (always laying with her front legs crossed and her nose turned slightly upwards. I'm convinced she'd be embarrassed if she saw those "tongue" pics I posted above.
  • These 2 cats are BFFs and I'm so thankful we got them together!
i don't care if we're crazy cat people, we love our girls :)
