Holly - smiling

Fundamentally, Holly was about Evan - but of course we've all ended up massively enjoying her.  But just officially, here she is with the main reason for getting her.

 We decided, primarily for cat allergy reasons that Holly should sleep in Evan's room.  So this is how it all started, sleeping at the bottom of the bed (this being how she's found in the morning).

But cats being cats, she has steadily worked her way north, much to Evan's delight, and the last place she was spotted sleeping at night was on his pillow.  Nothing could be better.

 Of course, she is doted upon by the only other female in the house (trust me, there would have been no holly had Ange not been keen on her, so here they are in the morning, after liberation from Ev's room.

Holly is a very active participant in a number of activities, ball games in particular are one of her favorites - though she's restricted to ping pong balls, and is reduced to observer status when there is a game of one-bounce going on outside.

All of this can get pretty exhausting though, for a small ginger cat, so the rest of the time has to be spent in various states of abandonment - we checked, kittens sleep 16 hours out of 24.
