A nice little happening this morning, which of course did not last long enough for me to grab a camera.
I was up in the crows nest scooping out some wet food into the boys' bowls. I had not noticed that Phoenix had come upstairs.
She starts munching from Buff's bowl and he comes up, looks at her, makes a kind of shrug, then proceeds to munch from Cooper's. Their heads were only about 6 inches apart. After a couple minutes, he hears something (Buff could, I think, hear an owl flying by) and goes off to do Buff things.
Cooper was blissfully unaware, heard his little kitty snoring from under the bed.

For the 1st time, Miss Phoenix had, kind of, lap time with me.
She jumped up on the couch and stood with her forepaws on my leg accepting pets and ear scritches for about 5 minutes.

Got a picture of her burrowing under the couch throw, where Buff likes to nap.
Nice breakthrough with Miss Phoenix today.
She was laying by the patio door watching birds picking seeds off the dead plants in my deck garden boxes.
For the 1st time heard her doing the Kek, Kek, Kek, and making the bite movement with her mouth.

Catching the rays on the landing just below the upstairs hall.
Her companions? I would buy stuffed animals and Smurfs when Anita and I were dating.

Peaceful scene played out for several minutes. Miss Phoenix lay there while the boys moved around her.

That Torti-tude is really coming through!
Just did some vacuuming and Phoenix came running to see what was making the noise.
Buff got chased from the front hall by little miss, he was all Poof Tail and Ridge Back.
He found a safe spot to take a nap.

Saturday night, Buff was playing gargoyle.
He likes to take over my wife's sink.
We think Miss Teia was a Maine Coon mix. When we adopted her at age 12, she was almost 20 pounds.
We gave her another 9 years 5 months.
A very nice occurrence early this morning. Woke a little after 3AM, "holding tank" full signal beeping. I noticed that Buff was sleeping atop Mount Phoenix, and she was in "Her Drawer." I think I heard one quiet hiss. They were still there when I got up again at 6AM.
Miss Phoenix getting much more comfortable here with the boy cats.
She is sleeping out in the open much more often, once in a while on her back.
This was yesterday. She woke up as I was snapping the picture, and shifted a little.

Found another. Phoenix and Buff atop a bookshelf. This lasted almost 10 minutes, peacefully ending when Buff jumped down.
