2 slugs for breakfast, yumm, chased down with some ketchup and some more food.

12AM Ori was bored but now is happy with a fresh old log.

12:16AM
Ori ran back to the closet at high speed. I think the sound of the washer startled her. Aurora jumped onto Ori and started a play fight.

1AM
Mom gave me blue cheese and everyone came running.

12PM
No one used the blue house except to pee on it. They are sleeping in the closet. Pua stayed with them till around 7 this morning then she went back to her washer.

Mom was ignoring me last night so I peed in her spot. Then she finally noticed me and rolled over right into the big puddle. She sure was cranky and I didn't even get my treat. I thought she was ignoring me and needed a reminder not to do that but I guess she really was sleeping.

(mom's note Pua gets more hormonal than usual this time of year)

Snuggled mom earlier now, playing with Ori in the hammock.

Growing back but now her tail is shedding. This is shaping up to be a slow drawn out process of a patch at a time. Well they have a slow metabolism so I guess the shed would be slow too.

12PM Laundry day wasn't that long ago but I decided to sleep in my hammock today anyway.

I slept on mom's chest for a few hours last night. She's nice and warm but kind of lumpy so I went back to my washer eventually.

2:30PM
Mom found me a couple late season roses. Yea! I love roses. Will tear into those tonight.

12:30AM Oops forgot to freeze Aurora's chiller bowls today. Could make for a tired me as she will be demanding I get her cold food during the night and I've got to get up early.
Pua isn't even up yet. Lazy thing gets excessively nocturnal in the winter.~Pua's mommy

1:15AM
I got up and had my ketchup, now taking a nap in my hammock. It's important not to get going too quickly.

Ori dropped her treat cup on my head. Is blue cheese and olive oil good for the hair? ~ Pua's mommy


Ori tamandua and blue cheese



1:40PM Not sure if Ori is being helpful by cleaning her mom's ears as they eat or if she is trying to store some for later.

Storing food for later

Storing food for later
Ori harassing her mom by getting a mouth full of food then licking in her ears, over and over again.

Stop it!
Stop it!

I suspect Ori was trying to store food in there for later. Poor Aurora she lets her daughter walk all over her.
