just hanging out with our yellow toys, nothing to see here
Will, a brown tabby cat, is in the upper left corner of the picture, licking a yellow Yeeeooow catnip crayon because he's weird like that. Moira, a black cat, is in the bottom right of the picture with a Yeeeooow catnip banana, about two seconds before deciding to bunny-kick the heck out of it.

anyone wanna play some games with me?

Got some fantastic news this morning: Moira is giardia free!! (finally!)

Now to put this little food-crazy girl on a little diet - I didn't think to check and make sure the automatic feeder dispenser measurements were accurate, turns out someone's been getting more food than she needs lately 😅

*sigh*

Someone still has giardia.

Really hoping the meds kick it this time.

In the meantime, at least she's enjoying Cat TV.

Moira the black cat and the Chromebook again, still streaming a wildlife video. This time, she's looking behind it to see if she can get to the birds she sees in the video.

After a day or so of scuffles, zoomies, and spirited dominance grooming after being reunited, these two have (thankfully!) calmed back down. (For the most part.)

I love these two so dang much. They're such good kitties.

Moira's giardia symptoms are gone and she finished her meds on Tuesday, so last night she was liberated from the TV room and was reunited with her buddy Will. They were inseparable for most of yesterday evening. 😻 (I am so glad to be done with sanitizing the TV room nightly... 😅)

Will's enjoying the outdoors from a safe distance, silly guy. (He loves to hang out in my office when the back door is open - and no worries about him escaping, there's a screen door and it's latched shut so he's not going anywhere!)
Will the brown tabby cat, laying on the floor of my office, a few feet away from the door to the back patio, which is open.

Moira just had her first dose of meds for giardia - and she was SO GOOD about it! She tolerated being scruffed, took all her meds without fighting or biting me, and got both a Churu and Greenies because she was such a good girl.

(If only it were this easy to medicate Will! 😅)

*sighs*

Welp, Moira has giardia - and as a result, she and Will have to be separated so he doesn't catch it too. (Between this and Will's tapeworm from a few weeks ago, I've deep cleaned the litter boxes SO many times...)

Neither of them are fond of this development.
Will the brown tabby cat, sitting in front of a closed door with a sign on it that normally says "please do not let the cats out", with pixel art of two cats that represent Moira and Will. The s in "cats" is crossed out, and between the artwork of the two cats, "Moira is in quarantine" is written in dry-erase marker. Will looks very sad and very much wants to be on the other side of that door with Moira.

srsly, mama. I got your back. literally.

(also pls ignore the pile of boxes, mama uses those to keep me from jumping on the stove that we don't use in the second kitchen)

okay so maybe mama is still feeling burnt out. it's nothing a few slow blinks won't fix, right?

Moira's been getting more and more snuggly as time goes on. ❤️ I'm happy she feels so comfortable with me.
Moira the black cat, curled up on the couch with me, her human. She's leaning up against my stomach and thighs, curled up in what might be referred to as the "baby spoon" position. Moira the black cat, curled up on my blanket-covered legs as I'm stretched out on the couch. She's very sleepy and has one eye partially open.

Well, it took her a few days, but Moira finally explored the cat tree! (It's a good spot for TV watching, clearly.)

Moira and Will: "HI INTERNET FRIENDS"
A very silly close-up picture of Moira the black cat and Will the tabby cat. Moira is so close you can only see one of her eyes, part of her nose, and part of an ear. Will is behind her, but more of him is visible.

I love playing with these goobers. 😻
Moira the black cat and Will the tabby cat, both sprawled out on the floor and playing with opposite ends of a long, rainbow-colored, fuzzy teaser toy with feathers on one end.

Moira: "yeah, i know you bought me a fancy cat tree, but the box it came in is loads more fun"

(The box came with basic instructions for turning it into a little house, so I figured, why the heck not? I didn't realize she'd like it more than the cat tree 😂)
Moira the black cat, laying in the doorway of a box-turned-cat house. The box is for a cat tree I bought for her and Will. She's played with the box more than the cat tree at this point.

Watching Star Trek right now, with Will right behind me and Moira on the couch next to me.

I've only had them for four days, and they've relaxed so much in that time. I love these babies so dang much. ❤️
Will, a gray tabby cat with green eyes, looking directly at the camera - he almost looks like he's smiling. He's laying on the table behind my couch - a good perch for watching TV, heheh. Moira, a small black cat, curled up and sleeping next to me on the couch.

These two look like they're about to drop a hot new album.

(Or angrily demand more catnip. 😂)
On the left we have Moira, a small black cat, laying on the floor under a chair with some cat toys nearby. On the right we have Will, laying on the floor near a cardboard cat scratcher. Both cats are looking at the camera with serious looks on their faces.

Moira loves the feather part of the teaser toy. Will? He's more excited about the wand. 😂
Moira (small black cat) and Will (tabby cat) playing with a teaser toy. Moira has just pounced on the feather, then got distracted by Will as he started chewing on the wand.

Will: "cat dad has a loooot of people over upstairs right now... not sure how I feel bout that"

(Little guy is handling having people over better than I thought he would, especially since he's only been here two days so far!)

Miss Moira has a lookalike, which miiiight have been one of the reasons I adopted her - meet her "critter from another litter", Mo!

1/
Two photos of black cats side by side - on the left is Moira the tiny black cat, sitting on a chair in front of some plush slugs, and on the right is Mo, another black cat who looks very similar to Moira, sitting on a pile of boxes. Moira and Mo's faces look very, very similar - but Mo is four years older than Moira.
