Uh oh.

It was time to get the boys "fixed" this week.  Tuesday was Mischief and Kinx' turn, yesterday Pakhet got to go in.  It's been rather comical to see 3 little "demigorgons" run around and bounce off of things due to their cones.

Not a fan of his brother in a cone!  Look at that tail!

Pakhet was "flying" last night after we got him home.

This is fine.

The twins just wanted to lay on me all day Wednesday.

"Whoa..."

"What the hell is on your head?!"

Kitty weekend.

We could all use a distraction from the weekend bullshit.  Here are some cat pics!

Big Black visiting us and enjoying the catnip.  I must have him!

Comfy!

REALLY comfy!

On the heat vent when the furnace is running!

Pop case entertainment.

Mr. Mischief loves my lap.

Circle of warmth in front of the fireplace.

Waiting for me at the door when I got the mail.
(nose prints are still from Maizey, I can't bring myself to clean them off.)

Sun powered cats!

Emergency Services training.

Skyler got to practice some search and rescue training for the Civil Air Patrol in the mountains last Saturday.

Snack break.

They found the "victim".

Still snacking.

Group pose with the "victim".

Seven years ago.

We lost Mom.  Not a day goes by that I don't think about her or feel the desire to share something with her.

Mom and Altair on the Big Island in happier times.

Weekend cat happenings.

Mr. Mischief found the clean laundry bin (and sunshine) in Skyler's room

Miss Shaggy and Kinx in some sun and up to no good.

Pakhet jumped into the warm dryer as I was emptying it.

He also found the warm sheets fresh out of the dryer!

Is this their dad?!

Pakhet is a goof.

Pakhet is relaxing!

Lots of cats.

Whoa!  4 3 month old kittens is a lot.

CatTV on Youtube this morning.

Kinx likes trains!

Kinx likes the sunshine.

Pakhet likes the sunshine too.

Pakhet is relaxed.  Mr. Mischief got too hot in the sun right after I took this yesterday.

They made it to pet paradise.

Kitties got a window perch this weekend.  It's been enjoyable for both them and us.  Spare no expense on the cats!

First Day Hike 2 days early.

Looking at the weather for January 1st, it was going to rain. So much for Antelope Island hiking!  Instead, we headed to Draper to hike to the Bear Canyon Suspension Bridge.

Inversion below us.  Yuck!

One Altair unit for scale.

I can remember before the bridge doing the "hike-a-bike" around the canyon to the east.  
The bridge has been here for 10(!) years now!

Happy Birthday Karen!

My only sibling turns 46 today!  We're so happy to have you in our lives.  Skyler is lucky to have you as his (favorite) Aunt.  Happy Birthday!!

Miss Shaggy is rather fond of you too.  :)
