Snow Leopards!

Mostly this is what it looks like at the Spooky House these days, some number of Bengals lying by the fire on faux fur. Or in Mim's case, my bra. Every so often they'll have a prowl around, or a yowl for food (actually, more like SCREAM BLOODY MURDER for food. Often) Sometimes they'll get ambitious and say, gnaw off half the antenna of my new stereo and bring it to me to play with. (Thank you, Venus) but mostly, it's all about the fire.

Today tho, it was still in the 40's when I got home from work, so we decided to nip outside to the Leopard Lounge for some Snow Leopard Time! Mim, apparently, went immediately feral. The Leopard Lounge even has a sign now, courtesy of my Derby Sisters Stunt Double and Slam'er (the ones who BUILT the Jungle Gym, remember? Handy sisters!) but I haven't managed to actually HANG it yet, not being handy, it will have to wait until next time.

Venus seems a little shell shocked, and clearly does not approve. She had a bit of a climb then went back in, declining to be a part of any more photo/video ops. I don't think she is FOND of winter, she's been really picky about her food lately crying pathetically, as only a Bengal can if she is served BEEFY BITS on a day decidedly marked for FISH MUSH. She's also taken to flipping the food off the plate and around the kitchen. Go Venus.

Of all the three, Magic likes being out in the snow best of all. Doesn't bother him, he's all over IN the snow and on the Jungle Gym. Adventure Kitty!!!! Watch a little video of him and Mim climbing about.



And back into the fire!

Wish I had video of this. Yes, she did lay Magic flat out on his back and, well, showed him.

Sometimes tho, we look like this. And are very happy.

Love and Bengals,
Lorraine aka Quiche MeDeadly

That was lovely hearing Magic mew then. I miss mews.

I think Venus might have been the wiser one, not getting her paws frozen.

More videos please - that was grand seeing the Bengals in action.

Yup. Those leopards continue to be absolutely gorgeous.
Also, I want a fire to snuggle in front of.

In other news, Tybalt's latest blood tests came back yesterday (they were delayed because the lab sent them to the wrong office) and its excellent news-everything is right in the middle of the 'normal' range. So he doesn't need to back for another 2 months, and that just for a check up.

Note to self: Time to rethink the gig-going outfit. I keep being mistaken for the door bitch. At the State Opera House. :) (Well, once at Beirut; twice at Dresden Dolls.)

Just found out I could.
