Day 3 - A picture of your animals
Big calls him Stinky Britches. I call him Bash, short for Headbash because he used to run headfirst into everything. His official name is Orion. But he answers to Pooh Bear, Stinky, and Shit Head. He's a cuddly demon who will bite you right after he bashes his head into your hand for pets, but I love him.
Big calls her Phat Cat. I call her Priss because for the first few years after she moved in with us, she was so snooty. Everything had to be her way or no way. And she only let you pet her if you followed her around the house for ten minutes first. Now she's so sweet and energetic. She still doesn't like to be picked up, but she will lay on us if we lay on the bed. Her official name is Cara. But she generally answers to Prissy Girl and Sissy Girl.
Getting pictures of them together is damn near impossible unless we grab them while they're both bird or weather watching. Once in a rare while, they'll lay on the bed together, or each pick a platform on the cat tree. But most of the time, they like their own space.
I honestly don't know what we'd do without them. They are the best companions, and they take such good care of us.
