She's the boss

This is the cutest cat ever. She has the most wonderful personality.
That is a giant yawn in the picture.  I had looked all over the house for her when I got ready to leave so that I could make sure she was not in the closet for the day.  She was downstairs on top of the file cabinet and when I saw her she looked so bored with the whole thing.

Sleepy Saturday morning

Who am I kidding?  Every day is sleepy in the cat world.  Actually I guess today is officially "Caturday".

Yesterday I was showing Don how to use the phone in his room, and had him dial our phone number and leave a message on voice mail.  I promptly forgot about this, so last night when I got home I had an extra message on the phone.  When I heard his voice I wondered what would happen if I played that message for the cats.

I put the phone on "speaker" mode and replayed the message from Don.  They both came running and sat and listened, turning their heads curiously, and I just know they recognized his voice.  They still miss him so much.  When I bring in laundry,  they sniff and sniff, and if I place a bit of it on the floor one or the other of them will sleep on it.

Don continues to improve.  He has been in rehab almost three weeks.  This weekend he begins a test of eating food on his own to see if they can discontinue the tube feeding.  He had the trach removed Wednesday evening, and swallowing tests done early Thursday morning.  He's been eating almost regular food since then.

I don't have a projected date for his homecoming, but I am sure the two cat girls will be so happy to see him!

This cat loves bags

Last night when I came home from the rehab hospital I just tossed my stuff on the floor so that I could quickly feed impatient cats.  After I sat down on the sofa to catch my breath I heard a rustling noise and found Georgia Lily had crawled into the laundry bag.

Don continues to improve.  He just asked me how the cats are doing so that reminded me to show him this picture.

My reason for coming home nights

I swear these kitties are a lot of work but without them my house would be so empty.  Georgia Lily is such a poster girl.   And she seems to love to be photographed.

Georgia tried to eat my iPod

Good grief.  I heard a crunching noise and looked up to see Georgia nibbling on the iPod.   She'd already tried to share my supper.
