The many faces of Sally Peppers.
That’s Sally on the right in the purple collar, Lucy in the left in the pink, and Everett on the floor keeping a safe distance.
Just in case you were under the impression that they all just lay around and look cute all the time.
That Kong bird is about her favorite toy.
Big enough that she can really get into kicking its butt.
Not so big that it can effectively fight back.
Light enough that she can drag it all over the room.
“YOU GO AWAY THIS ARE MY KILL.”
Sally is the scarediest of the Peppers Gang (well, maybe tied with Harlan). She’s the hardest to get hold of when you need to squirt medicine in her mouth, and the best hider. More than once, I’ve thought “Did she get OUT of the room? She must have squeezed past when I opened the door and I just didn’t realize it!”, only to eventually find her hiding in a spot I didn’t expect. She just isn’t sure that she trusts us, and when we reach for her, if she can’t turn and run away, she cringes away from us.
On the other hand, when I lay down on the bed and let the kittens come to me, Sally’s one of the first (if not THE first) to come over and stand in front of me and meow sadly until I pet her. Then she purrs and purrs. I know it’ll take time before she stops the cringing (and she’s a million times improved over how she was when they first got here two weeks ago), but I sure do hate seeing her scared.
Did I mention that Cilantro cannot hold her licker?
As long as you’re comfy, Clove. It’s not like I was using that keyboard or anything.
“Moooom! Clove melted out of the cat bed again!”
Ciara realizes that this means she gets the bed to herself.
