Night shifts are like black holes, they engulf everything .
I’m reading before I go to bed. The day is damp and cold and murky and the fire is uncharacteristically lit and has been since 10 am.
I have Ramen noodle broth for tea.
It’s quiet
Wet days dampen the sounds from outside.
Bun is a gentle soul. She’s affectionate and calm and already motherly despite her young age .
She’s warm too, and has stationed herself behind my neck, claws sheathed and eyes wide open .
Her expression is benign.
Whereas her sister Weaver is almost paralysed with uncertainty, Bun has conviction and a sense of character.
How do you tell them apart besides observing their behavior?

Weaver has a licked clean injury to her left knee which has healed but remains a bald dot
DeleteI've just been watching (on TV) all the Tractors at Llandudno. Starmer's not backing down!
ReplyDeleteIt's been chilly and cloudy here too. I'm wearing my winter coat and mittens already when I am out and about. Have a cozy, comfortable weekend, John. xo
ReplyDeleteJohn, have you heard anything about this? https://www.boredpanda.com/wales-outrage-dog-free-area-anti-racism-strategy/
ReplyDeleteWTF??
And, there is nothing better on a raw day than cuddling with a warm kitty! Enjoy
A warm, purring, furry scarf - lovely. I hope Weaver will gradually start to melt. Maybe, as the weather gets colder, the fire will draw her into the fold and all will be peace and harmony. xx
ReplyDeleteYour area has our weather from Thursday (day before yesterday) when we got nearly 2" of gentle rain. It was lovely but cold.
ReplyDeleteBun looks so sweet in the picture and I join the hope that Weaver will become more happily confident of her place in the family.
It's time to get the cozy wools and fleece out of the attic, closet, drawer, or trunk in our hemisphere!
Hugs!
Looks like you have a degree of difficulty telling the two sisters apart - just that little bald spot. Perhaps you should dye one of them ginger.
ReplyDeleteIt seems your kittens have reversed their personalities since you first saw them. Gigi
ReplyDeleteBun is adorable.
