Midna

     If you have taken the time to read or at least browse through my blog then you know that I have a cat. It's been quite a while since I provided any updates as so how my furry bundle of crazy, that is my cat, has been doing. I am happy to announce that Midna recently had her first birthday! She has officially survived her first (human) year of life along with her year checkup and she weighs 8 lbs exactly. She will always be my tiny little fur ball.
     Since adopting her, Midna has continued to warm up to Jordan and myself. When we first got her she slept under the bed and now she generally sleeps on the bed with us. Generally curled up in between Jordan and myself and other times between me and the edge of the bed. There have also been a few instances where I have awoken to find her curled up in between my shoulder blades (I was clearly sleeping on my stomach).

     She still has her crazy time at noon and midnight every single day. Jordan and I like to say that she turns into Mid-nasty during these fits. She get super hyper and just runs as fast as she possibly can from one side of our apartment to the other...our apartment is quite small so it only takes her like 15 seconds to go from one end to the other but I guess if she does it three dozen times then it gets all of her energy out. She also loves to play in Jordan's office chair. As soon as Jordan get's up she hops in it and waits for him to return and play with her ( our own version of "I'm gunna getcha!")

 

 

     In addition to her daily fits Jordan and I do our best to play with her as much as we can. She still loves to play fetch and chase anything that moves...including feet (especially when they are under a blanket). She also loves to play a game that I call hang-kitty...(that sounds awful but I swear it's not). Jordan or I will put on a thick sweatshirt and pull the end of the sleeve in so that we are holding in in our hand, inside of the sleeve itself (complete protection from her claws...I could never remove her claws, although we do give her a manicure from time to time...she's not a fan but she deals). She then walks up and sits in front of us and we slowly lower our arm above her. She then latches on (attacks) and we slowly pull our arm back up with her still hanging on to it, thus the name hang kitty. Although, she does like this game her favorite toys are still capped pens and highlighters.

    She is still sweet and playful and loving. Here are some additional photos and a video for your enjoyment.

Thanks for reading!

Midna relaxing with me. I think she looks like a rabbit with really short ears.
