Christmas #1
DS and I decided to do Christmas with each other and the cats today. It was the last full day we had to ourselves at home, without work or other obligations. Also, I was in the mood for a pick me up.
Most of our gifts for each other were mostly things that we needed and wanted, but for whatever reason, had not gotten around to getting for ourselves. The gifts for the cats were more whimsical, and honestly, bought more for Felix than Winston. Winston likes two things in life: rabbit fur covered mice, and edibles. Felix is much more well-rounded. We got them a play tube, a toy that rolls and has feathers and burlap, and a packaged set of interchangeable sushi toys filled with catnip and with velcro pieces to attach to a stick and string. So far, neither cat has been very interested in the tube, though I was thoroughly surprised to see Winston immediately get in it. It was a short-lived excitement. He hasn't cared about it since. I'm more surprised that Felix doesn't care about it. In fact, she seems afraid of it. She's always seemed very fond of small, enclosed places, so I had thought she would love this thing. I figured she'd love the rolling toy, because she can sink her claws in the burlap, and chew on the feathers, and roll it around the floor. All of which have been true. They both love the sushi toys. I wasn't sure if the catnip would win over Winston, but he's been attacking them with gusto, so long as we pick them up. Felix, in typical fashion, is quite happy to drag them around the house without our intervention.
Here are some photos of our decorations and Winston attacking some sushi.
