Today, the cats got a surprise in the mail, new felted balls from their Aunt Darcy:
As you see, there was much merriment. I haven't seen Loki get quite so excited. Sky immediately began playing fetch with hers, then took it over to the easy chair for some quality playtime.

New pic of Lady Sky (the pretty Siamese cat) and Loki (the handsome creamsicle kitty).

As you see, they've been bonding :-).

New one of Lady Sky that shows a little of what a beautiful kitten she is.

She's finding all sorts of little spots to call her own, including this secluded end table.

Here are Lady Sky and Loki in my "studio" (the dining room table).

Lady Sky is doing very well for being here less than a week. She and Loki are still figuring out games that they both enjoy.

She's also enjoying the new varieties of food (she'd been on dry food before). She wasn't sure about canned food her first day but now she can see its plus side ;-). And she loves chicken.

We adopted a kitten yesterday :-). I had gone to the pet food store in search of catbox liners. There wasn't a sign out for adoptions so I didn't think there'd be any kitties there today. I made my way to the back of the store to find a bunch of kittens.

I'd always wanted an orange kitten with white paws but, for one reason or another, had ended up with other wonderful cats (we'd recently lost our cat, Megan, to cancer and Salem (my 10-year old cat) had been lonely).

	Salem took to the new kitten, whom we named Loki after the trickster god in Norse mythology, right away. They seemed immediately in sync. They played together...
Then had a nice meal together. Loki had fallen asleep in an inaccessible area under an easy chair but came out when we had dinner. I showed him the food dishes and he tucked right in, finishing Salem's dinner. Salem didn't mind at all.
	Loki adapted easily and I was surprised at how independent he is. In no time, he was fearlessly exploring. After several rounds of playing, eating and napping, he jumped up on the back of the couch and purred himself to sleep. An excellent first day.
