And just because I had the camera out

Here's a new batch of cat pictures I just took because it seemed silly to only take pictures of my first batch of Christmas cards.

This seems to be Mouse's favorite spot to lay and her preferred method of stretching out. The last snap of Mouse I took was very similar. I think she was mildly annoyed I turned the light on so I could take the pictures of the cards on the bookcase. She cracked her eyes open a smidge and gave me one of those looks before she went back to ignoring me completely.

This is Goblin almost but not quite laying next to Mouse in the dining room. Goblin still hisses and spits at the kittens when they actually look at her while any of her pet humans are watching. I think great progress has been made since Goblin was laying less than two feet from Mouse and I was actually in the room looking at them. Of course, they weren't looking at each other.

And here we have Rainbow stretched out on the dining room chair that used to have plastic wrap covering the fabric to protect it until Rainbow and Mouse clawed it off. My mother bought the dining room suite for me as a house warming gift last year and I haven't had the courage to tell her the plastic is off and the seat is slowing being covered in cat fur of many colors.

And lastly but not leastly, we have Heru contemplating mischief with a small box of trash that hasn't made it out to the garage since I just unpacked the books that arrived in it. Heru has a nasty habit of walking in amongst your feet and I have the nasty habit of roaming about the house in the dark, so the two of us in the same house are an accident waiting to happen. Today, I stepped on Heru. It must have hurt because he yelped and took off and he wouldn't let me near him to check if I'd done real damage. By the time I finished snapping the cards and the other cats, he'd forgiven me and let look at his legs to make sure I hadn't broken something. He quickly got bored with me when he spotted the box with paper in it. Men!
