Time Flies!!

 I've been meaning to write more but I never seem to have the time!

February was bitterly cold! Most days found the cats like this:

on the sofa with an electric blanket on

one of the warmest places in the sun

curled up together

In the morning I put the kerosene heater on in the living/dining room and have a line of cats in front. I've tried to explain that sitting in front of the heater means that the room doesn't warm up. But they don't listen.  

As the weather warms up I think the cats will get more active. I can already hear them racing around and fighting more! 

One problem is the neighborhood cats that come and hang outside. I don't mind them coming, I guess no choice, but I don't think they are fixed.

There are at least three that come round, I haven't had the chance to get photos of the others yet. If they are just hanging out or coming to the windows I don't mind, it's when they start fighting and yowling that gets me. Also, something keeps ripping our trash bags to pieces, either one of the cats or some other animal. I live in the countryside of Japan, we can get several interesting animals here, wild boar and occasionally monkeys among other animals!

I hope to keep this blog up. I'm learning how to take videos and edit them, should be interesting! Look out for some interesting cat videos!
