Ruining it for everyone.

I walked in to the living room today to find that Kirby had removed the screen from the window and was standing on the ledge outside. I have seen Kirby fall off the coffee table or bed on numerous occasions. I was completely freaked seeing him on the ledge when we’re six stories up and knowing what a total klutz he is. I screamed for Mitch and he got the cat back in to the apartment.

Now, in the middle of this wretched heat wave, we have the windows locked up tight so we don’t lose the cat to gravity.

Kirb loves birds

A few years ago, we bought a MeowTV DVD for Joey so he could watch birds flying around. He used to really have a great time slapping at the TV and looking behind it trying to figure out where the birds were.

We haven’t had a DVD player for a while, so I haven’t been able to play the disc for Kirby. Now that we have an xBox 360, I can play movies. Kirby was loving it!

Introductions

The cats adjusted quickly to their new roommate. They were a little peeved at first when they were dethroned from the changing table/crib by Isadora the Beautiful. It’s pretty nice; they almost never get in the crib if she is in there.

Kirby is very curious and was the braver of the two. He walked right up to Izzy and introduced himself withn the first few minutes of her arrival.

Izzy and Kirby’s Introduction

It took Murky over a day to get brave enough to approach the baby, and once she did, she was very calm.

Izzy and Murky share the play mat.

Rest in peace, dear Murphy

Murphy

Murphy lived in the basement of our apartment building. He spent his lazy days hanging out in the courtyard garden, and he loved to visit with people while they were doing their laundry. I noticed last year that he really started to look old and it was breaking my heart. His eyes were smoky and his fur was greasy and separated. Murphy’s personality changed as he started to lose his vision and hearing. He didn’t come when called and his howl-moans increased in volume and frequency.

He came to visit me while I was doing laundry last weekend. I told him I didn’t have time to give lots of pets because of the long list of things I had to get done before the baby’s arrival. I told him I’d catch up with him next time. I’m really sad I didn’t spend a few more minutes with him while I had the chance.

Kirby Sling

Cat left another bag of goodies on the door–a button down plaid shirt, p.j.s, and three sweatshirts. There was also an Infantino sling. Doesn’t Kirby look great!?
