Namiko Adventures

There is a rotation of sorts in regards to where Namiko decides to take her naps. These days the space underneath the wicker chair in my room seems to be the flavor of the moment.

We sneaked in Namiko's old baby bed one day (the one she abandoned many months ago) and she actually slept in it!


Sleepy snoozy dreams of wicker and cotton puffs


Squinty eye pirate style, no less!


Makes me want to doze off as well...

Namiko had another nice lazy weekend of naps, spider hunting, and gluttony. Just when one thinks her daily routine is predictable, she surprises us again with her signature Scottish Fold cat stand.

Still a bit wobbly at times, Namiko stands up with resolve.


"Now where is that bonito treat that my stance greatly deserves," her turning head inquires as she scans around for her reward.


Of course, we had to oblige.

Namiko welcomes 2009 with a wonderfully luxurious nap. Yes, while everyone around her was counting down to the new year, she decides to take a snooze instead.

Wake up, Namiko, it's 2009!!!


Ehh... okay, sleepy kitty, you win.

Happy New Year to everyone! To bring in the new year of 2009, I present to you exciting pictures of Namiko on top of a folded blanket....!!! Okay okay, not quite that exciting, but I hope you will enjoy the pictures anyway.

Namiko lays herself across the top of a blanket


Enjoying the softness of the fabric she is..


Looking straight into the camera with no shyness


A touch of coyness in a blink of an eye


Paws crossed and attentive to her caretaker's wishes...

... Not!!! She is beholden to no one.

Namiko wishes everyone a wonderful 2009!!! =D

When Namiko sees a bird outside the window or a bug buzzing around the house, she never fails to inform us with some very strange chirping or yapping noises. It's hard to describe the sounds she makes but it's definitely not a normal "meow"!

I was fortunate enough to catch her making those noises yesterday when a bird was flying around in the yard outside.


Namiko is so weird, haha.
