Eugene and Amos

EUGENE AND AMOS

 Winter came in softly

Teasing us with snow for a day or so...

Washing away all the dirt...

As the Christmas Season was approaching...

In each of us....

an awful anticipation...

a dread and an anger...

Depression settled in  our animals

It is strange, but hey feel her absence too....

Calli's cat Shaya went into hiding in the basement,

Butchy would lay in her crate

in the dark basement all day long

They were all moping around the house

Mike and Aidan too...

So i went and stirred up the house a bit.

And got two adorable kittens.

After Aidan's suggestion of "Poopy" as a name for he brown tabby,

Mike decided to name him "Amos."

I took it upon myself to name the black and white tabby, Eugene,

after my grandfather who died from leukemia when I was 6.

 they like to cuddle :)

 Amos sleeps on my face.

Or on my pillow when I am not home.

I think that is gross :(

 the dogs love the kittens too..

they really livened up the house

 see my wrinkles?

Amos loves to cuddle,

He is quite fiesty,

but in a fun way

Loves to pounce on Eugene

fight,

then lick him to sleep...

yeah he's kinda like me :)

 Amos...oye- He loves me,

not sure why exactly,

but he gives me a daily dose

of loving

 I a really not a cat person

especially since I am really allergic to them

 but something about these two...

calms me

calms all of us

 he was watching the snowflakes

 Amos knows he is not allowed on the counter,

Not sure what Mike did to him to get that point across :)

He watches as Mike and Aidan pack their lunches

Eugene does not like to get his picture taken,

does not care for cuddling,

but sleeps next to Mike each night

and  loves to be petted and itched behind his ear.

Yeah, He's kinda like Mike :)

 He sneeks on to Calli's bed to be close to Shaya,
who has finally comeout of hiding.
She is is not so sure about these little rascals,
but they are growing on her.

 getting too big to sleep on my face
