Anneke's fever is finally falling and the vet thinks she can come home tomorrow after one more night of nutrition from the feeding tube! A sweet vet tech moved her to a big cage and set up a nest of blankets for her. Intense tummy rubs for an hour twice a day have lifted her spirits ❤️
Adela is 5 months old today! She's getting a lot of playtime while our friend is over.
All three cats are napping in the office today! What a bunch of sweeties ❤️
All three cats go nuts for broccoli!! 🥦😹🥦
Our friend brought over a Da Bird feather toy and all three of the girls went crazy for it (plus he's really good at the motions). Adela is flying all over the place! Anneke has been lazy about running recently but she's panting and Emma isn't trying to avoid Adela because she wants in on the action. The Cat Dancer used to be their favorite but no more!
Anneke loves really intense belly rubs!
Emma doesn't like catnip but she LOOOOOVES broccoli 😹
Anneke and Emma had a good wrestle!!
Aslan purring softly in front of the heater
Thank you for all the well wishes for our sweet boy. He seems to be doing a lot better! Last night and this morning he was very enthusiastic about getting snacks and smelly canned food, and was rumble purring like a motorboat in anticipation. Last night he came to sleep on my pillow and right now he started purring softly while being petted. Hopefully he keeps getting better and will be fully recovered soon! ❤️
Aslan, Anneke, and Emma all play with the Cat Dancer toy

Emma and Anneke "synchronized licking"
Emma and Anneke are practicing their "synchronized licking" for the Olympics. I don't think they're going to get a medal 😹
Emma playing in the snow and then running off
Yesterday Emma was playing in the snow, but ran off and ended up on the neighbor's deck! I had to come retrieve the naughty girl. She spent the rest of the day crying at the front door, and we're probably not letting her go outside again.
Anneke enjoys a vigorous tummy rub!
Anneke loves a VERY vigorous tummy rub. We joke that she's half German Shepherd. She's got the coloring and the energy!
Anneke and Emma silently wrestle!
Anneke and Emma had a stare-off before launching into a fight! They're always completely silent as they wrestle. I took this video while Aslan was sitting on my lap watching the crazy girls 😹
Aslan's rumble purr!
Aslan has the loudest rumble purr I've ever heard! He's our little motor boat ♥️
