Christmas Pictures

Here are some pictures from our Christmas. Somehow Mom managed not to get a good one of Steve, so I didn’t crop him out of the picture of Dad and me.

Here’s our Christmas “tree”. We don’t have room for a tree in our house, plus Mom is afraid we might break some ornaments because Wilbur broke some of the ones from when Mom was a baby back when Wilbur was an only cat and so Mom thinks with two dogs added, it would be disaster for the ornaments. So we just decorate the fireplace. It works out better because Santa doesn’t have to go as far when he comes down the chimney.

The computer is out because we Skyped with our Missouri grandparents and Aunt Kari and Uncle Joe for opening presents.

Mom thought this was a good picture of Dad and me when she looked at it in the camera, but upon closer inspection, I look mad and Dad looks out of it.

Mom put some jingle bells on Wilbur, which he didn’t appreciate. I think she would have left them on longer except that Steve and I got really interested in him with his bells, so in the interest of safety, Mom took them off.

And that’s all the pictures that we have. Mom was a real slacker this year in the picture department. Steve and I got new collars from Santa and also a Wholesome Hide in our stockings. Wilbur got some salmon snacks and greenies from Santa. We also got some treats from our Texas grandparents, some toys from our Missouri grandparents and a picture frame from Aunt Kari and Uncle Joe that has our names carved in it (Wilbur’s name too). Mom and Dad got stuff but it’s not important.

We hope Santa made all your dreams come true!

Wilbur's New Duds

Mom bought me a new collar.  Apparently she thought the snap thing on my old one was worn out since I kept losing it everywhere.  Here's my handsome self in the new collar.  Note that I also excel at not cooperating for photos.

After Mom tried several times to get me to look at the camera, I bit her and showed her what I really thought of her photo taking.

Meow,

Wilbur

New Collars

Just before Christmas, Kat and I got some new collars because Mom started worrying that we were going to wiggle out of the ones we had.  After much deliberation, we got Wolf Pack collars.  They don't have any buckles to break and they tighten up on our necks if we pull.  Plus we got the ones with reflective strips, so we are even more visible (if our fur isn't in the way!).  We both like our collars.  I got red and Kat got purple.  Mom just realized yesterday that Kat's purple collar makes her look like a University of Washington husky fan since their colors are purple and their mascot is a husky.  She's perfect.

Here's Kat modeling her new collar.

Kat is horrible at modeling.  Here's me modeling my new collar.

(Khyra, this pic is for you, gorgeous.  Sitka, please don't get jealous, I love you too.  You too, Holly, but you're taken.  Same for you MayaMarie, taken by your masked hero.  I have too many girlfriends to keep track of.  My apologies if I forgot to mention you, lovely ladies.)
