Around the house today

Early morning sun

and the trees seem to be in charge today. 

After breakfast the kitties head back to the couch for another snooze.

Audrey is getting the hang of this 16 hour a day snooze-fest that the others seem to enjoy. 

By the snoring, I would say she has it down pat. 

"I snore?"

She loves getting right into the thick of things around here and the oldsters are accepting her very well.
Lily loves her, Ed is indifferent and Cali has dementia and forgives and forgets all her annoying habits. Sierra has come to like having Audrey share a box with her. Annie has no time for her unless they are playing together with a feather on a stick. Then and only then does she enjoy her company. I have yet to figure this out except that I think Audrey was too rough with Annie in play and she keeps her distance now. I'll catch her washing her once in awhile but it is very rare.

Then it was off to make the bed. This is her favorite place to hang out.

I'm a bit beat today. Thanksgiving dinner was a family affair. Now we are 10 and that's about all this old house can hold.

Turkey & stuffing with cranberries
Vegie Pie
Mashed Potatoes
Sugared Turnip
An array of vegetables 
home-made whole wheat bread 
Lots of wine
Pumpkin Pie & whipped cream with a dash of cinnamon
Cherry Cheese-cake

Pots of coffee &amp & pumpkin fudge
Even the dog and cats were given a feast. 

Mr. Ed & Lily spent the afternoon in the spare bedroom with salmon, water and lots of comforts while little Riley ran through the house. Since his injury last year, Ed is a little wobbly when he walks and we were afraid that a 2 year old might knock him flying so they were out of reach during dinner. It worked out well. If he could, he would thank me profusely.

I had a busy weekend for cat-sitting. I'll show you my gorgeous kitty-clients tomorrow.
hugs, Deb
