Hektor has a new thing.

Now, everytime he sees us putting on our shoes, he comes and lays down by the door, waiting for us to open it. And then when we do, he tries to make a break for it. Then he gets about 2 feet into the hall and stops to look around, and we snag him and toss him back in the apartment. I don't know why he is so keen to get out lately. It's pretty cute though.

Beds and Naps

I meant to update last week but then got really busy, and then over the weekend I was really lazy.

Kitty did it again last night. She sits and the side of the bed and then chirps and mews until I give some sign of life, and then she hops right up purring and cooing. Then she nuzzles down purring and head butting and falls asleep next to me, slowly pushing me further and further into Norms half of the bed. I innevitably wake up crammed into Norms armpit while she sleeps soundly on top of my blanket and pillow. She is a bed hog.

I got home from work tonight to find Norm and Hek having a nap together. It was cute. I keep trying to encourage Hek to sleep on the bed with us, like Kitty sometimes does (NOT when she bed hogs. She usually sleeps at the foot of my side of the bed), but he seems to enjoy cramming himself into the corner of the room, or behind my mirror. He has started to a little bit, though. It's nice that he's finally settled down. When we first moved into this apartment, he was SO EXCITABLE. He spent all night tearing around the apartment and mewing at the top of his lungs. For a couple months, he would stand in the doorway and scream at us to wake up and play with him. He's started sleeping at night though, thank god. Also occasionally uses the scratching post now too.

Occasionally.

Cats

Okay well, since Lauren has been on my ass for a couple weeks now, I've opted create a cat blog.

My cats are Hektor and Kitty. Hektor is a 1.5 year old seal lynx point Siberian. He is long, and funny, and furry. And he loves forts and the bathtub. He whines a lot though, and talks back. Kitty is a 2 year old Russian Blue mix. She's oddly shaped (she has a tiny head and shoulders but a HUUGE butt!). She loves fake mice and waking me up at 4am to pet her. I think she thinks it's funny. It's not.

They live with me and my boyfriend in our 2 bedroom apartment, and they spend their days wressling and whining at us. Here are some pictures.
