It's snowing!

We just got our first snow of the season a couple of days ago. Yea! Bruce and Alex acted like they had never seen any in their lives, and stared mesmerized as the fat flakes drifted slowly down. Bruce even started chittering at the flakes :)


Lately I have been doing a lot of my work on the kitchen table, mainly because it has the best light and the most space. Both my daughter and the cats have been protesting the fact, because time-wise I don't have much time for any of them. Alex takes an advantage of my work and lays by the exhaust of the laptop and feels nice and toasty warm.
Bruce doesn't like my use of the table, but he doesn't let it hinder his tail!

Drooling all over...

Have you ever met a cat that drools worse than a dog? I have one that would win all timed drooling competitions like nobody's business... Bruce goes from dry to drooling in five seconds flat. It is SO funny, when he starts forming huge droplets on the middle of his "lips" (cats don't have actual lips of course..) and then he starts dripping on the person holding him. It is always connected to his contentment, the happier he is, the more he drools.

Bruce is getting more and more character traits from our other cat Alex. He didn't use to have the same kind of "kitty madness" Alex has, but these days, he looks like he has been attacked by invisible fleas and jumps about wildly. Thank goodness it doesn't happen every day, our stairs are under enough strain as it is, without a relatively large cat bowling through like a herd of elephants (because that's what it sounds like!).
