Drusilla has a new ribbon. It was tied around a box as decoration. I caught her on the counter, trying to steal it. She had untied it and was trying to pull it off the box. #cats #catsonbluesky

Toe beans!!! #caturday #cats

My favorite picture of Auggie (gray/white) and Drusilla (calico) cuddling on the cat tree. #cats #catsofbluesky #catsonbluesky

Pic's a few years old. Auggie had a large paper collection that needed to be reduced. He DID NOT approve. He pulled it out of the garbage bag and spread it over the hallway in protest. His current paper collection is much smaller. #cats #catsonbluesky

Auggie became very obsessed with the grocery bags after going to the store. I think it was the smell of the celery. #cats #catsofbluesky

Auggie thinks it's too hot. #cats

I took the week off from work, and this little one has been my constant companion. She's enjoying the extra bushings and treats. #cats #catsonbluesky #catsofblusky

Auggie enjoys watching the Canada Day fireworks. #cats #catsofbluesky #catsonbluesky

Auggie fell asleep belly up. #cats #catsofbluesky #catsonbluesky

Auggie makes his feelings known about our current binge of Vox Machina. #cats #TheLegendOfVoxMachina

Drusilla's most recent favorite sleeping spot is the reusable grocery bags.

Every morning. #cats

A picture from a few years ago. Drusilla insisted on trying to cuddle with Auggie in his favorite box. She didn't fit. #cat #catonbluesky

Auggie in the morning lights. #caturday #Catsonbluesky

The goslings outside my window at work hatched this week. A wildlife rescue had to come and get them off the roof since they can't get down themselves.

Drusilla loves to pose for the camera. #caturday #cats #catsonblusky #catsofbluesky

I was hoping to get a picture of them sleeping, but the reflection off the camera caught Drusilla's (the calico) attention. #cats #catsonbluesky #catsofbluesky

Kitties in the morning sun. #Caturday #cats

They smell the roasted chicken. #cats #catsonbluesky #catsofbluesky

Found an old picture of Auggie and Drusilla. I'm not sure which was the culprit(s), but they both seemed pleased with themselves. #cats #catsonbluesky #catsofbluesky

Poor Auggie has to have dental surgery again. There was a mass on an incisor pulled last year, and now it's on the tooth next to it. The vet wants to pull 2 more incisors plus some bone for a biopsy. She thinks it's benign but wants a 2nd opinion from a different lab. #cats #catsonbluesky

Current situation at the vet with the cats. #cats #catsofbluesky #catsonbluesky

Auggie has claimed another blankie as his. #cats #catsonbluesky #catsofbluesky

Here's a kitty belly for #caturday #cats #catsonbluesky #catsofbluesky

Drusilla wasn't a fan of being held when I first got her, but now she will happily purr while I cradle her. #caturday #cats #catsonbluesky

Auggie is enjoying an unseasonably warm day with an open window. It's been several months since he could enjoy fresh air. #cats #catsonbluesky #catsofbluesky

Auggie is obsessed with his packing paper. #cats #caturday

Due to work and getting sick, I haven't posted any pictures of the cats lately. So here's two when Drusilla was new (6 yrs ago), and Auggie and her were getting used to each other. It took a week. #cats #catsofbluesky #catsonbluesky

Drusilla thinks the blanket draped over my legs between the couch and coffee table is a nice basket to sit in. How long will it hold? #cats #catsonbluesky #catsofbluesky

I finally convinced Drusilla to sit on the couch next to me so I could brush her. Only took 6 years. #cats #catsonbluesky #catsofbluesky

After being home sick for a few days, Auggie is protesting me leaving for work this morning. #cats #catsonbluesky #catsofbluesky

Auggie is less interested in the new box and more interested in the packing paper. #cats #catsonbluesky #catsofbluesky

Found the picture of the one time Auggie let me put a bowtie on him and sit nicely for a picture. He tried to run off and hide it afterward. #caturday #cats #catsonbluesky

According to Auggie, Mondays are "Moody Mondays" because his humans have to leave for work. #cats #catsonbluesky

Auggie wants the plumber to love his belly. #cats #catsofbluesky #catsonbluesky

Sleepy kitty! #cats #catsonbluesky #catsofbluesky

The apartment neighbors often leave their door ajar so their cat can go into the hall. I let Auggie out into the hall without knowing it was open. Auggie was at their door meowing loudly before I could grab him. He saw their cat once and really wants to meet him again. #cats #catsonblusky

Snoozing in his favorite box. #caturday #cats #catsonbluesky
