The Mess Cats & Charlie

Gracie has her dancin’ shows on!

We’re jealous!

Jaxon tells me this Tuesday feels like a Thursday and it’s not fair!

Three photos show a baby monkey. In one, the monkey hugs a stuffed animal. In the others, it is cuddled lovingly by an adult monkey. The caption says the monkey now has a real family after bonding with the toy.

Punch, a Japanese macaque at Ichikawa Zoo in Japan, spent months depending on a plush toy as his only source of comfort after his mother rejected him at birth. Zoo caretakers worked patiently assimilate him into the group. When an adult female showed him affection, he left the toy on his own. 🐒🥹

Another sleepy Monday morning for Mr Jaxon.

4 years ago… #tbt Somebody said something about Gracie’s Momenem!

They are speed!

Gracie perches in her spot on the back of the couch.

Jaxon and Charlie look on in concern.

We’ve been busy then sick, but are on the mend finally. Thankful for our fur babies to keep us alive.

Jaxon stretching out his arm while on the couch with his eyes closed.

Long arm of the paw.

Bam

What a great #tbt today! 11 years ago today Jaxon was super smug and very demanding!

Not crying...Handsome Gerald!

Gracie grey tuxie all smiles on the balcony.

We got a minute between raindrops here so Gracie got some outside time and is here for it!

Cats are the best foot warmers!

(11 minutes later)

Why are my foot warmers hurting me?

Charlie brown down laying in his bed on the bed.

One of them days, huh Charlie… zzz

Well I guess using the treadmill is out of the question this morning…

Charlie brown down in a hallway with one of his balls.

Always play time!

At one point, yes, but not this time. She was just putting on a show for more treats methinks!

Gracie meditating on life while on her mat this morning.

They just magically appear.

Gracie suddenly alert on the couch.

From sound asleep to owl eyes when she hears the automatic feeder go off upstairs.

11 years ago today we got all three babies together for a family photo. Jax, Grace and gramma Joey. #tbt

Jaxon orange cat with whiskers going everywhere.

Showing off for whisker Wednesday Jax? Looking good!

He likes to give kisses when we get into tabletop occasionally.

Charlie brown dog yawning on the back of the couch.

Waiting for mom & dad to finish yoga so playtimes may resume.

Out #tbt takes us back to 2017 and Gracie perched with a couple scarves.

Good reminder from this state highway!
