So my largest female, the Queen Bitch, ate my other big female soon after my last post. I was sad so I put her into a separate container so she wouldn’t eat any of the others. Well one night I noticed she started to make a web that was different looking than usual. More globby white in areas.  Anyways, I went in my room, watched a movie with Mina kitty and came back and she was working on an egg sac! Im soooooooo excited! Ive never seen this species with babies before or even their egg sacs.

It was really cool watching her make it. She used her legs, mouth and palps to help form it. You can even see the little spherical indents from where the eggs are inside it.

Since my last post there’s been some big changes around here. Frankenstein didn’t work out. We think the woman who has him was just screwing with us. We did get a cat though! Not only did I get a cat but my Mum adopted one too! (Mischa has chosen Dad as her human so Mum still wanted her own kitty) Say hello to Mina and Jazzy!

This is Mina. Shes my kitty. Shes 9 months old and is super sweet and playful! She knows shes my kitty, she follows me from room to room, sleeps on me and makes a cute little trill noise when she sees me. I just love her!
 
 

This is Jazzy. Shes a 7 month old polydactyl (meaning she has more toes than a normal cat) fluffball. Shes super friendly and loves everyone. The day we brought her home she acted like shed lived here for years.

 
 
I cant believe we have 4 cats now! They all get along fairly well. Mina and Mischa kinda have a dominance thing going on. I have no doubt that Mina will be the dominate female though. She reminds me so much of my sweet Tasha kitty and Tasha always was queen bee.

Its like a full time job watching these cats tho! That’s why I haven’t been online in forever. Its like chasing after 3 toddlers all day. There into everything and where there new here and new to each other we had to watch for fighting and marking territory and stuff constantly. I especially had to watch Mina because she was just spayed when we got her and we didn’t want her hurting her stitches.  Now that there settling in more we don’t have to watch them quite as much. Well, there’s going to be some spaying going on in the next 10 days so we’ll have to watch for those stitches too. Hopefully soon I can get caught up on emails and work!

 
It was my birthday on the 17th and I was super surprised when the door bell rang and it was my friends! I just planned on getting chinese food and playing video games all day but this was so much better! I loves me some Luke, Embee and Shannon  They even brought me presents! *__* Embee got me one of the Sandman tankobon (what do they call these comic collections in 1 book in english?) I actually stayed up till 4am reading on my Birthday and eating pop rocks from Luke. I have to read the rest of this series now! Will have to ask Embee where to get more.

 
Anyhoo heres a few more pics of my Mina. Shes just sooooooooooooo cuuuuuuuuute!!

Mischa has discovered the best way to get my attention! To jump up on my desk when Im working!

On my desk.

She also discoverd that giving me one of her little kittenish meaows works well to get me to pat her.

In other news Frankenstein didnt come today as planned. Hopefully he will get dropped off here tomorrow tho.

I think there plotting something… 

Cute!

Yeah, shes definitely plotting something evil.

Reeeeeeally evil

Mischa is just as hard to photograph as Midnight. She wont stay put so I had to use flash and her eyes glow red in every picture. Never seen a cat with eyes that reflect light as much as hers do!
