Just Chillin'
Hi efurrybody, Saku here. Mom bean is sticking around and I'm having a great time. I's waking her up in the o'dark early, begging for treats and loves, and then ignoring her when she is up and moving. Gotta keep the beans on their toes!
She brought some photos of my cuzins, Stanley and Spencer to show me. I'm not all that impressed. Apparently, they both love to lounge on her bed. Well so do I! You be the judge...who does it best?

She's back!
The mom bean came back a couple of days ago, and I have been spending as much time as I can with her. She especially appawciates when I wake her up in the middle of the night (several times) to remind her I'm happy to see her.
I've been doing my part, too, to make sure she doesn't sleep in. The bean brofur leaves for work at about 6:15 a.m. so I expect to be fed at that time. Today, it was 5:34....I'm a cat and I can't read a clock.
She's been spending time with two other kitties, Stanley and Spencer. I'm sure I'd hate them. She says they are nice kitties but neither of them are lap cats like me. We've had a talk and I told her she can share their stories too.
Meanwhile things are good with me - I'm eating well, and the output is what it is. The beans have to clean it up, MOL!
Time for my fourteenth nap of the day. See you all later!
Pee Ess: she brought me a present too. It's a little lamb that has catnip. I won't let her take a picture of me playing with it.

I got a present
Actually, I got two presents. First is this pawsome water fountain.
The mom bean says she got it for me, because I pester her for drinks from the tap, or a glass. She figured this might make me happy. It did!
Mom bean didn't get a picture of the other, a new scratching post. Of course, I'm ignoring that and continuing to use the old beat up one. :)

Sharing the mom bean
Hi efurrybody, Saku here. Sorry, I haven't been here for a long time. The mom bean has been away from me, but I'm okay 'cuz I'm living with my bean brofur. He's furry good to me, he keeps my water and kibble dishes full, feeds me the yummy wet food twice a day, and cleans my litter boxes. We have our routine too before he goes to work, with some scritches and he turns on the radio for me so I have company too while he's away. There's more scritches and pats and some toy time when he gets home. AND of course, dinner!
Mom bean got back from staying with my kitty cuzzins and the sticky bean just over a week ago. She was planning to stay with me until the end of June, but has to go back there for a few days later this week. She promises to come back again she gets some important stuff done.
I've been enjoying lots of lap time. When she's doing stuff, I help. Here I am keeping an eye on her - she had just finished putting away her clean laundry.
I also make sure she wakes up every morning. Usually between 5 and 6 a.m. She's got lots to do here so she needs to be up early. Plus I want my breakfast.
When she isn't here she is hanging out with Stanley and Spencer. This is Stanley...he likes her bed.
She says he doesn't sleep with her either. His place is with the sticky bean.
This is cuzzin Spencer. She has slept on the mom bean's bed once, and hides under it sometimes.
I kind of miss the old girl when she is away, but I know she's in good paws with Stanley and Spencer. Except she says they don't wake her up in the morning! I don't have to worry though, the bean sisfur wakes her up most mornings.

About time!
Hi efurrbody,
Mom bean has been slacking big time. She even disappeared for a whole lot of naps. I kept the bean brofur in line while she was gone. He even slept on the couch sometimes because I yelled when he wouldn't let me in his room. Something about furs and scratching - not my problem.
Anyway, she finally came back and I was pretended to be happy to see her. There has been a whole lot of lap sitting and scritches and treats. I think she feels bad she left me behind.
I'm not as forgiving, so I've been giving her the stink-eye and sometimes even a bite or two. She has to learn, again, that I am the boss.
Right?

Farewell sweet Sheldon
When he arrived, he was a wee kitten. The other three cats had quite different reactions to him. Saku was initially afraid of him, Sami hated him, and Sasha, as he had with the other kittens who arrived, patiently put up with him. In time, both Saku and Sami tolerated and would even play with him, but Sheldon always adored Sasha the most.
This is one of my favorite photos of the two boys. It's almost as though Sheldon was saying, "I'm the baby, gotta love me."
There were several good tussles between Saku and Sheldon, and sweet moments too, when the pair slept on the couch together...even touching!
Sheldon loved to crawl under the covers on the bed for a nap. I visited last week, and he slept under the covers beside me at least one of the nights.
Every morning, after breakfast he started his day with a tussle with his big brother Stanley. After D dropped Sheldon off at school, she'd come home and Sheldon would remind her it was time for a nap. The two would curl up on her bed for a hour. When she showered, he'd wait in the bathroom for her.
Today, D messaged me to say Sheldon had thrown up last evening and several times through the night. She had isolated him and put in the bedroom with a bowl of water and a litter box, hoping he'd pass whatever was bothering him. But he deteriorated through the night and even more so this morning before she could get him into the vet. She sent a video and he was clearly in much discomfort and crying, though he did stick close to D and followed her down the stairs.
