Look at Mom with kittens Max (black) and Ruby (tabby). These are the kittens of our little friends Gracie (9) and Clara Ann (6). Mom got to love on these cuties when they went to exchange gifts. I worry that Mom may have caught kitten fever.

Lizard in the house
A dead belly up lizard neatly left by the shoes will get us banned from the garage. They may see this as us bringing the lizard in, but we see this as defending our house.

Secret Paws is here!
Hooray! Hooray! It's one of our favorite days! Our Secret Paws package arrived! We got a very intriguing package from Crepes, Rocky, Niles, Mrs Peabody and Doodle from Cat in the Fridge.
Maggie was the first to investigate the box.
Being the oldest cat I have to set a good example and read the card first.
We got a tin of really cool Christmas colored balls to play with. (You'll see these again...)
And look! Cat grass! We needed this!
Huggy Bear helped me pick out a catnip mouse to play with. He was so excited that he got blurry in the picture.
But really, how could you help but not get excited with all these cool gifts!
Maggie likes to check out the box and make sure Mom and Dad got everything out.
Josie showed up a tad bit late to the opening, but she still got to pick out a ball or two to play with.
There were peppermint striped balls, and green ones, and they jingle when we bat them around.
Josie had trouble deciding.
Huggy Bear had no trouble deciding -- it's the crinkle butterfly for him.
I was partial to the heart-shaped mouse from the tin of catnip mice. I kept knocking it under the dresser so Mom and Dad would have to get up and get it for me. It's a really fun game. I highly recommend it.
And then there was the Catnip Stogie! This this is amazing! It is compressed catnip in the shape of a cigar. Maggie just couldn't contain herself. She licked it and put her stink on it so we all knew it was hers.
There were Temptation Mix-Ups too -- some of our favorites! (I know I got a picture but I don't see it right now...)
Thanks to all the cats at Cat in the Fridge for the great Secret Paws! We are having so much fun with all the awesome toys. We can't wait for the grass to grow so we can eat it.

Rest in peace Russell
Oh man! I just learned that our friend Russell (William's brother) went to the bridge right before Thanksgiving. We are truly heartbroken. There are few brothers with such a a great relationship as William and Russell and I know William must be missing his friend. Russell you will be dearly missed.

New box!
One of Mom's Christmas presents arrived today: a new KitchenAid stand mixer. We've figured out this online ordering business and ordered her some surprises. And best of all, look at the awesome box! Huggy Bear is in the box (a little hard to see) and Mags is peeking around the edge. I really thought she was going to pounce him but she left him alone and let him enjoy it.
