Junko, calico kitten

One stray cat that visits my brother seems to be toothless. I got to pet it while I was there.

Toothless!

Lilly is a beauty!

My hooman looked at Google homepage today and saw a doodle to honor Junko Tabei. Today would have been her 80th birthday. It was only fitting I was named after a mountain climber since I did a lot of climbing as a little kitten.

I'll to check it out.

My hoomans liked the doodle and one of them wanted to share the news here.  She is glad that the work done by the hooman Junko is being recognized.

My Meowmy appreciated it. She likes to the doodles but doesn't check for them. Tonio

It was my brother who texted my mom about the doodle and wanted to make sure I saw it.

I'm glad he did, thanks again.

Catching up now. I will need to start checking the doodle more often. Cool stuff about Junko(s).

It was.

I have enjoyed what I have read about Junko Tabei.

Few days last week I woke up to find Junko in bed with me. When she gets in bed with me, she will eventually start working on me to get up. Her purr motor is loud.

At least she purrs you awake. Antonio uses the fangs in the scalp method.

Winnie does the sneak pounce and roam around on top of the sleepers. Mouski uses the loud purr. Between the two of them, they eventually get me up and to the kitchen.

That sounds more civilized than fangs.

Junko is still being herself. My parents got a new heating blanket for their bed and Junko has been sleeping a lot on it. It was her way of giving approval.

Antonio adores ours.

We put our mattress warmer on the bed. The kitties definitely approve.

LOL!! I know I do.

Of course, Junko brought in another mouse over the weekend. I know it was hiding in the hallway closet since she was staring at the closet door. I have no clue what happened to it beyond that.

I think maybe you don't want to know. Still she is a good kitty.

There have been times I was glad I didn't know what happened to some of the mice the cats have brought in.

My kitties have been staring at a corner in the kitchen. I think a mouse is trying to get in, although I haven't seen any evidence of an intrusion or a catch. I hope the kitties scare it away. I hate when they get in and make messes everywhere.

So do I.

Junko is still a good girl even though she releases mice in the house. We have been enjoying having another calico.
