All jots on pets


I know kittens are energetic, but I have no idea how Nyx is still running around the house at midnight after laps around the house all day with stolen socks, 3 serious sessions of fetch, and various scratching post/tether-feather antics.
Once again, typing with my keyboard on my lap because my cat has decided that the absolute best sleeping place in the house is on my desk in front of my monitors.

There weren't other dogs at the park today, but she ran around with her good friend, Stick http://instagr.am/p/GwjAs8K7jM/
Should've named her Mary Poppins b/c she's practically perfect in every way.

FRIDA!!!!
Today I learned how to handle a big dog entering the small dog park. All the little dogs make for the corners while the owners wait a wary but curiosity-filled minute before politely leaving as if that had been their plan all along.
I don't have to curb my dog. She curbs herself. SO PROUD!!!

Frida played with an 18lb shih tsu called Hercules at the park today http://instagr.am/p/klmr0/
@mattk reminded me how much I want to dress Nyx up like this for Halloween next year: http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxsq4ik4OX1r6...

@bismuthobsidian made a hat for our cat, Samson. He is wearing it with great dignity, as cats do. http://instagr.am/p/kD0Kv/
Frida is at the groomer! Her first time to a groomer and ours too. Exciting day.
Nyx tapped me on the face this morning while I was still in bed. I turned to look at her just in time to take a close range kitten sneeze to the face. I suppose it's only fair since Death Cold has had me sneezing on her for the past 2 days.
Nyx has taken to de-pillow-ing the furniture so she can make little kitty lean-tos. I know I should discourage her from this behavior, but c'mon... who doesn't wish they could be making pillow forts?!

The cats agree the dvr is the best seat in the house. Second best seat is on top of a cat who's already on top of the dvr. http://instagr.am/p/heTyM/
Frida got her last round of shots today so just a few more days until we all get to enjoy the dog park!!!

We want Frida to be a desk dog like Walter, so I made her a desk bed http://instagr.am/p/d8uvD/

Baby's first bus ride. Fast asleep in carrier, wearing her cloak. http://instagr.am/p/bM7Dg/
Nyx managed to not jump on my head all night while I was sleeping... and then when I overslept my first alarm, she woke me up by gently touching noses. It was pretty much the cutest thing ever.
Small black kitten + black office chair = remember to look before you sit back down after refilling your coffee mug. I can't even count the times I almost accidentally squashed her in the past day.
