Zhukov draped

Looking down from the wardrobe top

Bushy tail

Hello

Circular cats

Ayesha asleep

Zhukov zonked out: Zhukov as a dragon

Ayesha goes to the mat

Zhukov as a Cylon

Red eye, and boxed!

Ayesha, imperious

Zhukov zonked out: stretched leg

Ayesha on a chair

Zhukov swaddled

Ayesha stretches

Zhukov zonked out: adrape

Zhukov, zonked out: behold my mighty stomach

Box in the garden

The chase is on

Ayesha washes

Zhukov grooms me

Ever since we got the overgrooming problem sorted, Zhukov likes to groom us. Here's an example.

Pretzel shapes

Zhukov zonked out: Twister champion

Right paw on... red!

Zhukov zonked out: creeping towards the edge of the bed

Not going to pose for you

Zhukov, zonked out: variations on a shirt

Keeping secrets

Zhukov, fully extended

Guarding the garden

More paw-touching

Touching paws

A rare sight

Both cats on top of the wardrobe, together!

Ayesha, precisely posed

Ayesha, flirting

Zhukov and some toy cars

Ayesha guarding a blanket

More opera

Zhukov, singing

Zhukov, stabilisers out

Ayesha in the hall

Testing out the flash on my new Blackberry.

The Tale of One Bad(ass) Rat

Zhukov brought in a live baby rat, which he let go in Brian's bedroom. The cussed thing holed up behind the radiator and managed to live there for two days before we managed to flush it out (by virtue of removing all the furniture plus the radiator and blocking any holes in the wainscotting). Here she is before Alan put her back in the railway cut.

Zhukov zonked out: Flat on his back

Synchronised sleeping

Clench

Zhukov, zonked out: snuggling

Group nap

Nesting

His fur's nearly all grown back now.
