Lol. My kitties are doing good. Except tomorrow is the one year anniversary of when I said goodbye to my sweet Esther. But I am trying to look forward to the 12th of June which is the one year anniversary of Helen coming to live with us. I feel like Esther sent me Helen. Amelia is still skittish but lately when she is laying on a cushion on a table in the backyard patio, she will usually stay there for several minutes and let me pet on her. If she moves around too much then I know she isn't really wanting to be pet on. If I keep doing it, she will get down, but if I back off then she will continue to lay there. I got to pet her for about 5 consecutive minutes the other day which had to be a record! She is a medium haired cat and she is shedding a lot right now. My Mom keeps washing her blankets almost every day but it seems like it is a losing battle. She is staying in the yard more, although I did see her crossing the street the other day. Silly kitty. I just hope she doesn't get ran over! Helen is doing good. She is a sassy bossy little thing who loves my Dad to pieces. I get a little jealous because she will sit with him but she doesn't sit with me that often. And after I get up in the morning and cuddle on her, then she goes into my parents room and lays with them on their bed until I come get her for breakfast. She loves these balls that I got for her that are on circular tracks. She will spin those balls around fast. She squats down, shakes her butt, and then springs forward at them. It's really cute. I should try to video it. She's such a ham. She loves this particular blue blanket of mine so I have given it up to her. My Mom was like, but that's one of your favorite blankets. I was like, but she's one of my favorite cats! She has claimed it as her own. I will have to take some new pictures of my babies and post them soon.
