Zimba looked a bit weird after he was sick, his fur turned grey in different areas, and then back to black again. I'm sure it was some kind of side effect of his illness, and only lasted a couple of months. Never done it before or since!

Thomas in the snow for the first time. I don't think he liked it very much.

Eating has always been a social event at our house. Boo will now complain if he eats alone.

Such a ham!

Getting as dirty as possible! Zimba is crazy about rubbing his whole self in gravel, and could always get Figaro to join in on a warm day.

Figaro loved the camera, and the camera loved him!

Cats and yarn... what can you do? Probably best to step away and just clean up after they are done!

Camera strap, always a treasured prey for kitties! I have not met a cat that will not try to kill them!

The king of the world! At least in his own mind.

If I fits, I sits! Even if the box was occupied.

Figaro was a very good hunter, but he didn't bring much of is loot home. He killed to eat, not to bring gifts to his humans. And he would eat whatever his big brothers brought home as well!

The king of relaxation! Sylvester had it down to an art.

Their first ever taste of snow. NOT acceptable. Not at all.

It was very very hard to go skiing with Ringo. He was super enthusiastic, but it was all about trying to murder the tips of the skis, making it very hard to move!

Ribbon. The best thing EVER!

Such a tiny, lovable little creature Oliver was. And then... well... not so lovable ;P

This is why we can't have nice things. Especially not plants.

Some cats looks better in the "wild" than others! Figaro didn't think the wild was for him though, he hardly ever left the garden. Had to be within earshot of the fridge door! 

 A couple of sprays from the liquid catnip bottle, and suddenly it's playtime!

Tough as they might have been, my cats have never been big fans of snow. None of them. Outdoors and on the prowl all spring, summer and autumn, but walking in the white stuff? Nope. Not on a leash, not on their own. The year these photos were taken the snow came very early, and they were glad to be indoor cats.
