Waking up

Augustin is half awake. Albert is still sleeping.

Alessandro attacks Jossan’s tail

And he attacks…

Archimedes is awake now and he thinks that Alessandro’s tail looks quite yummy! Serial tail-biting!

Of all the cat beds they have, the kittens picked the smallest, thinnest pillow, because their mom happened to fall asleep there. The Siamese pile is formed again!

Siamese kittens, 20 days old, sleeping

The tummies are full, and the kittens are all sleeping. Notice one small nose coming out of the pile in the background. :)

The tipi is becoming too small for Jossan and her seven kittens. We ordered a bigger tipi two weeks ago, but it hasn’t arrived yet. Jossan does not want her children to sleep in a cat bed without a roof. Instinctive fear of predator birds, we guess, and also, it is much warmer in the tipi than it would be in a bed without a roof. Jossan refuses to move into cardboard boxes with blankets inside; she likes luxurious stuff. Spoiled!

Three kittens and a tail

The kittens are 9 days old here, and they all have opened their eyes.

When we talk to them and their mom they crawl to the edge of their igloo and look at us. They seem to be very curious. Here they fell asleep after one of our socializing events. :)

A few more pictures, where you can see Jossan’s belly from several angles. On one of the pictures she is lying behind Leroy.

BEFORE…

Some time ago, this is how the Siamese used to lie together, on a pile in one of their beds:

Please, notice: Jossan is the smallest one, lying in the middle of the pile.

AND, NOW…

This is how they look together today (sorry, Miii, you are out of the picture and out of our bed…)

Pregnant Jossan, much bigger than before, is hugging Leroy:

The signs

We think that Jossan is pregnant!

She sleeps a lot and is much calmer since she came back from Goofy. She threw up twice in the mornings last week, and she almost never throws up. Last week her nipples became pink in color. She started gaining weight.

So exciting!

We bought her food for kittens and she takes some yogurt and milk for cats daily. Otherwise she eats as usual; 3 different kinds of dry food are always in the bowls. The cats also eat either raw beef, canned chicken breast or canned tuna daily.

White thiefs

The Siamese routinely steal the blanket now. We need another one. I’m sick of waking up freezing with two white cats looking at me like: “WTF, don’t disturb us human”.

They should really be nicer and more thankful for all the food we give them, the sand they spread over the apartment, the toys that lie everywhere and don’t get me started on that kitty-furniture on which they lie to watch over their servants. But we really don’t deserve better.

We pay to become slaves and somehow think it’s all worth it. Adorable fuzzy little furballs :)

This picture could not have been taken before one week stay at a cat hostel. Spending time together on a much less space than usual does wonders for their love for each other. Every time we got them back from there they were nicer towards each other.

Our cats always stay at Solgläntans kattpensionat when we are out of town for a longer time. One day they can be without us. Two – four days they can be at home with a cat-sitter. Usually our friend Thomas takes care of the little ones. He sits and codes on his computer and they let him. :)

They take good care of our and other kitties in Solgläntans. They are cat enthusiasts that also take care of homeless cats and find them good homes. That is their primary area of engagement. If you live in Stockholm area and need a good place to leave your kitty while on vacation, we warmly recommend Solgläntans kattpensionat.

A mini blue lion, isn’t she?

Angel likes to stretch one leg like this sometimes when resting.

Jossan yawns!

 JossanYawns

This picture is the first proof caught on camera that Josephine and Angel started tolerating each other. The sisters got separated when they were 12 weeks old and met again a year later, when Angel moved to our place. Jossan was very jealous at start, but it has been getting better really fast.

So, everyone is either yawning or sleeping, but I can’t. It has been sunny outside for a few hours now. During the summer we get a bit of darkness here, between 11PM and 02AM, now when the day is longest. If I miss that window to fall asleep, I just turn into a non-sleeping zombie and in the worst case do not sleep at all until the next dark period. If I am lucky, I fall asleep around 4AM. Well, not today. :/

I am not so sure that taking an afternoon nap with your head on the phone is such a good idea…

How high can Maven jump if her pillow RINGS!?

How many cats can one fit in a bread basket?

Jelena and Joakim got a cute felted wool bread basket from Britt-Marie and Bengt, but they never managed to use it as it was intended.

All three cats think that it is the best present ever! A present to them, of course.

How much can those things stretch, really!?

Leroy and mini Leroy, sleeping on Maven’s pillow.

All three cats share the sleeping places, but each has their most favourite ones. This pillow is one of Maven’s favourite resting spots. She likes to lie there and look at people and cars out on the street, or just be near Joakim when he works on the stationary computer.

We were not so active for some time, but now – here we are again!

This is how it looks when Leroy and Jossan are sleeping in the flower cupboard (well, it was supposed to be a flower cupboard, but Leroy occupied one of the shelves for good, and Jossan followed. Our Saintpaulias still got 3 shelves, not that bad after all).
