Someone asked in the comments yesterday if Lucy is still “cockeyed”, and the answer is that yes, she is still slightly cross-eyed. Sometimes she’s more cross-eyed than other times, and honestly sometimes I can’t quite tell the two girls apart. When I brought them home, Lucy was wearing a collar, but I took it off, and now I wish I’d left it on because it would make identifying who’s who in pictures much easier. Everett’s easy to ID because of his white whiskers, but the girls are a little more difficult to tell apart.
But I do know that this is Lucy!
And Everett and Sally. I’m also pretty sure that’s Alice right there. Nothing gets by me, y’know.
He’s gone from one white whisker to two on each side!
Everett in mid-air, having jumped up after the feather teaser. It kind of looks like someone threw him, doesn’t it?
All three Peppers. That’s Sally in the front, Lucy in the middle, Everett to the right with his crazy white whiskers.
Jake gets involved. I’m calling it a feather teaser, but it’s actually Da Bird, which I’ve read about on other cat blogs for months, and finally decided to get one for our cats. It moves like a bird, and I’m pretty sure Jake thinks it’s a real bird. He flies through the air, grabs it, and then will run through the house with it in his mouth if we let go of the pole.
Everett had to take a rest. Note Corbie back there, all “I don’t know what’s going on, but I’m staying out of the way!”
The Peppers and Alice Mo. (Please do not get the wrong impression, here. Alice Mo has no use for those Peppers. But they’re on the area of the couch where the heating bed is located, and so she’ll put up with being near them for some of the heat.)
Left to right: Jake, Tommy, and Elwood, all snuggled up for nap time.
