So Fern has developed a thicker coat for winter and her bob tail is extremely shaggy.

Whenever his head is upside down Sid's fangs show up

Sid is present and ready for work

Sid.

Fern

So one thing Fern isn't great at is landing gracefully. She just comes down like a bowling ball bag with the bowling ball in it. Last night she jumped off a 6 foot high shelf and it shook that whole half of the downstairs. Afterwards she had to go sit for a few minutes.

Fern attends monday work meetings and tries to pay attention but invariably passes out pretty quick.

Sid is being too frisky and Fern yelled at him and she is now angry lurking under my desk.

Sid meanwhile is in love with Bethany's usb humidifier.

Fern is now curled up in Bethany's arms, sulking.

while this was happening Sid wouldn't get off of Bethany's laptop and he left this input in our daily work notes

Sid is the most powerful good vibes emitter I have ever known. Perpetually chill and friendly. Never rude, never moody. Always happy to be here, always wants to say hello, always seemingly a bit stoned. In telepathic contact with the friendly bears on the moon.

Bethany has downloaded an app that purports to translate your cat's common noises. Sid and Fern's individual pages are about what you'd expect.

Fern

these cats aren't even a year old

Sid translation update: I was down in the basement doing laundry and he was outside the door

Sid translation update: wallowing on his back angling for a belly rub as I was about to go to bed

There hasn't been one from Sid yet that doesn't involve him declaring his love or asking for love. I know this is all just an app but that does seem about right.

Fern

The hall closet being open for more than a few seconds is a very exciting time for them.

Sid Translation Update: calling from outside the bedroom door when he heard us waking up

Sid translation: hiding behind the couch trying to get my attention by sticking his paw out and chirping

Tuesday again

I can't remember in my life being as cozy and chill as Sid is every day

BREAKING NEWS: this is Pebbles and he wants to be our best friend and come live in our house. We called the number on his collar and he's and indoor/outdoor cat from the next street over.

Pebbles you can't come in

A Story:

Sid got close and Pebbles started hissing, which seemed to confuse Sid. Fern came up and took charge of the situation and Sid went to the other side of the house.

Pebbles has found my office window and is meowing at me to come back outside.
