Fig, Pig, and Ellie Phant

 We have a lot of stuffed toys. Fewer than the beginning of the year but, still a lot of fluff. Puppets are all over the place too.

 

We have a basket that is for cat toys or toys that the cats have declared as their stash.

 

Fig has two that she loves dearly Piggie, which is the Mo Williams Piggie, and Ellie Phant, which is a Disney Zum Zum of the baby elephant from Jungle Book, these two go with her all over the house. They also come with caterwauling as they carry them around. I can’t figure out if she sees them as prey or kittens. All I know is that both toys were on the bed this morning.

 

This morning, I awoke with four cats pinning me to the bed. They each had their spot they were sleeping. I moved my left shoulder until Phoebe woke up and moved. I freed my hand and gave her pets and skritches. The others woke up slowing and all came for their morning skritches. We went downstairs as a clowder, and I fed them their morning wet food. No fights this morning.

 

Now all are settled all over the house napping. Currently Pheobe is behind me. Fig is up on our bed. Mewlan and Inky are in their usual hidey holes in the dining room. Later this afternoon everyone will find their place in the living room.

 

Today is about outside and playing pick up sticks with the yard. It will be warm enough to play outside. 

 

This morning, I plan to clear off the coffee table which is covered in important papers. Sweeping the floors. And clearing off the couches. Leave me with a clear space to work on the next paperwork project.

 

I am grateful for Caturday.
