Weird Kitties

Arien is such a little weirdo, but it makes me love her even more!  I never quite know what to expect from her when she gets into a silly mood.  I caught her laying on the window sill behind this chair trying to squeeze through the tiny gap.  She was trying so hard to attack me, but couldn't quite get those mittens through.  So dumb, weird, and cute!  Kira often tries to hide when Arien is going crazy.  That is unless Kira is also going crazy at the same time, in which case stuff normally gets knocked over and broken.  But it's okay because I love them.  😁

Pretty Plants

 I really enjoy taking pictures of my plants!  Some of them are hard to get good angles to show off how pretty they are.  These are some of my favorite plants that I own.

Fluffy Girls

 Kira has gotten so fluffy in the last month or so which is weird to me since it is getting warmer out now.  I thought for sure she was shedding, but I've brushed her and nothing comes off.  Honestly, I know Kira looks fairly fat, but a lot of it really is fluff!

Arien looked quite annoyed that I took her picture.  She wouldn't look at me again while I had the camera out.  She's such a diva.  Hahaha!

Botanical Conservatory

 Last weekend I went to the Botanical Conservatory with my friends!  I hadn't been there in a few years and I think this was only the second time I went there just to look at plants and not to photograph people.  It was fun!  It isn't that big, but it is such a beautiful, relaxing space to enjoy!  I was super excited that they were selling used bulbs for $1.50.  😃  I only bought 3 pots worth and I kinda regret not getting more, especially of the hyacinth.  This summer and fall I plan to redo the flower beds in the front of the house, and I'm so excited to add in the new plants!

Cats and Plants

 Here are some recent pictures of the cats and the plants enjoying the sun as spring approaches.  😊

Kira's Gotcha Day

I'm late in recognizing Kira's Gotcha Day.  It was April 6, but that was in the midst of Link being at our house so I was too busy to celebrate her.  Kira also had a vet appointment last week, which she doesn't like.  She's lost another pound since the vet saw her last year, and overall the vet was quite happy with her, so that was great to hear!  

Kira is such a great cat, and I think she is often overshadowed by Arien.  Kira doesn't always want tons of attention, but if she is in the right mood for snuggles, she'll climb right on you and make herself at home.  Kira is quite ornery when she does want attention.  She often sits on my mouse pad to try to prohibit me from working.  I generally banish her to her window hammock, which to be fair, she absolutely loves.  I think one of my favorite things about Kira is that she knows her name and will often come when called.  I wish all cats were like that!  It truly is so convenient if I don't know where she is and I think I may have trapped her in a room.  I just call her and wait until she comes running at me, meowing all the way.  She's seriously so awesome!  I love her so much!
