Last night, while DD was getting ready for bed, Buttercup waited for her by sitting on the railing at the top of the stairs.
And this morning, when I came down for breakfast, there she was guarding the newel post.
She’s been sitting there a lot lately. I’m not sure why she decided all of [...]

DD was not feeling well today and stayed home from school. She found several projects that kept her quietly occupied. She read all the comic books in her sister’s room. She played on the computer for a while. And she designed a pirate costume for Buttercup.
She began by making a bandanna from red fabric. [...]

It’s been two years since we adopted Buttercup, Zilli, and Zak. They are fun additions to the family. I came across these pictures today while looking for something else. Zilli and Buttercup still play together almost every morning, early, chasing each other around the house at break-neck speed.
And here they are on the ladder and [...]

DD#2’s cat, Zilli, is a very relaxed kitty.
She slept like that for about 20 minutes, but we disturbed her slumber with all the funny pics we were taking of her.

I snapped a picture this morning of Happy taking a snoozle on the arm of the recliner in the library.

Someone said, “Dogs have masters, cats have staff.” Seems to be the case around here.
We started with Happy when DD was three years old. She is DD#3’s kitty, but she thinks she is DH’s cat. She loves him. When DH and I sit down to chat, Happy comes from anywhere in the house [...]
It’s spring and that means ladybugs in the house on warm days. Zilli found one in the kitchen this morning.
Gotcha!
She rolled over and promptly lost the little bug.
She looked all over the floor but couldn’t find it.
Ladybug? What ladybug?
Not sure when it quit hitchhiking, but it may be outside now. ~~Rhonda

A year ago last summer, DD made a Citty Club (kitty club) for Buttercup, Zak, and Zilli. The Citty Club has a dance floor and a “mirrored” ball hanging from the ceiling. The ball is made from aluminum foil.
The Citty Club comes complete with rules.
Waiting…waiting…waiting…
Here comes Zilli now…
Where’d she go?
Zilli played hard…now [...]

My daughter took this great shot of my kitty Zak playing in the snow over the holidays. I love this picture.
