It was quite a Christmas Eve dinner. Merlin went above and beyond to keep people entertained

Once again he has proven he is brave and fearless. Nobody was denied the chance to cuddle and fall in love with him. Gryff, who is a VERY social fur baby, was Merlin's only competition for attention. Madoc made an appearance but I thing he was just checking on me.

I was exhausted from all of the prep work and cooking and managed to slice my thumb open while dicing potatoes but everyone else had a great time, which is the goal of the whole hosting thing. I had the dishes done before everyone left so once the house was quiet, I headed to bed.

Madoc is truly my empathy boy. He curled up with me and purred me to sleep. He was still with me when I woke up. Well, he woke me up with a gentle pat on my nose because, well, BREAKFAST. Merlin spent last night with Gryff, cuddled up on a very plus blanket that's festooned with Tigers, a gift from my niece. Arthur was MIA. He is very so-so about company.

I turned down a Christmas Dinner invitation so today it's just me and the fur babies. Once I put everything away I'll light a fire in the fireplace and we will all spend the day in a snuggle puddle.

A big Meowy Christmas from me and my kid cats!!
