Fern: I hate halloween costumes. I am insulted by them.
Sid:

The cape kept flipping over and he didn't know how to handle that.

Fern sends luck

Sunday

people are asking: does Sid have short legs?
the answer: they are the right length for Sid ok

Sid busy this morning making sure the ghosts can't find us

Sid playing a very methodical, slow burn version of fetch this morning

Tuesday morning Fern content #SoundUpForFern

napping Sid

We gave them catnip.

We put out two piles, one for each of them. Sid walked over, scooped them together and then flopped down on top of them.

Tuesday

UPDATE: Sid now weighs 6.8 POUNDS 💪💪💪

Sid was doing his air pawing over my coffee this morning. Thank you Sid. I feel very safe now.

Sid Catfield, everyone

Power's been out for the past 30 minutes and in that time we've discovered that Sid REALLY likes fire.

Fern is following me around the dark house. A few seconds later Sid darted across the hall. No idea what he is up to.

sunday night #SoundUpForFern
apologies for the loud radiator directly next to the camera

Monday

Fern didn't make it through the work meeting earlier

Sid has discovered spinach, loves it

fern please dust your synth

Fern is such the good natured but melancholy, pensive intellectual, while Sid is just a chill good vibes bear from space.

Bethany put out some catnip and Sid overindulged and has been immobile for the past couple hours.

Bethany's dad was squirrel hunting and sent a tail for the cats and for Sid in particular it is the most incredible and important thing in the world

🐿️

I can't believe like 3 months ago this guy was on the brink of death. Sid is the comeback king of 2020.

i'm glad Bethany got a good video of Sid in full power mode

FERN

today Sid rolled off the ottoman in his sleep, woke up for a second, and fell back to sleep right there on the floor

slow motion Sid

here they come

this clip really captures their personalities- Sid bounding down the stairs while Fern thoughtfully walks

late night teamwork, filmed secretly, in low light conditions

Bethany was putting out some christmas decorations and a very helpful Sid had to be carried around so he could still be involved while not ruining literally everything

the focus... the drive...

Sunday

Fern and Sid everyone

context here is the dot was on the wall above them and while Sid was transfixed, Fern was attempting to communicate

Sunday Night Fern

I promise I will at some point stop posting slowmo vids of Sid jumping around but it will probably not be anytime soon.

Fern

the first winter mane is coming along nicely

office buddy Fern

definitely less often than a few months ago but from time to time, such as today, yes. although she's never been like REALLY rank just like uh... feral woodsy animal.

Caught Fern casing the Christmas tree. She stared at me until I backed away.

I should stress that Sid's legs are perfectly normal length, they just don't appear that way because of his build and fur. Also compared to Fern anyone looks very stubby.

powerful footage, battles of wit and strength

they are more evenly matched these days than they were a few months back, when Sid was very sick and Fern would absolutely thrash him

they each have their own fighting styles. Fern employs an evolved form of the lunge-and-leg combos she used to great effect as a kitten, while Sid has developed a style that combines huge bursts of energy along with flips and piledrivers and other brutal takedowns.

Sid was hanging out in the kitchen while Bethany made Christmas cookies and all was going well until he walked up and shoved his face directly into 5 cups of flour.

bath time

Late night dot watching.
