February 22nd sounds meow-meow-meow to us Japanese cat fanciers, while January 11th 3-time bow-wow for dog lovers. So it seemed to Mei-Shun that today must be pets’ day. However, it is just called いい夫婦の日=married couples’ day to say thank you to each other. Well, nothing to complain — expression of gratitude is the most important for good relationship.

Totoro’s Cap
StandardI am. He stands looking at the first sunshine in the morning, I love to jump on him to warm ourselves together. Since it is freezing from last weekend, we must be in a hurry to catch the sun — he quickly goes into futon mats of cloud. Meow, dear my friend, stop your nose running. Mom told me laughing that it was me who made you like this, yet I don’t believe it. Purr … purrr …

Orange Change
StandardAh, she might be the mom. Mei-Shun saw a big mantis on a blanket hung in southern balcony, asked her to leave. She slowly climbed the wall to the roof or over in sunshine; finished a great job, saying good-bye to her children. And that might be why our biggest grapefruit has grown thorns on green branches around the egg. They say this armor proves an adult citrus tree.
Fluffy Bracelet
StandardPurr, it’s warm to sleep on mom’s legs. She went out from this afternoon to night for horseback riding. The other day she received a phone call from Ms. I, her favorite instructor who takes primary care of Madoka-chan. Since 5 lessons reserved for this dark brown girl have been canceled so far, a private lesson was offered. Nice women’s day it was, under a blue sky. I stayed a good girl as well. Praise me more, purrrr …

Generous Lady
StandardPurr, mom stays at home all day today. Although she overslept a little, I was all right. Warm room with sunshine comes in, saying good morning. After breakfast, I went up to the roof floor to take a nap. Oh? There is only my white bed. The pink one, I tried once and gave up, where is it, mom? You served it for the tabby friend of mine living outdoors? Meow, no problem.

Charming Friends
StandardHi, Mr. Vanilla, great to see you again after 2 weeks. Mei-Shun missed you so much during 6-day rainfall followed by a severe storm. Gentle boy, thank you for being always careful not to bite her breast while chewing her air-bag vest. Good evening, Madoka-chan, how’s it getting along? Look at the seventh-day crescent, graceful and looks like your ears.
Welcome Back
StandardIt continued to rain for 6 days from last Thursday. We saw beautiful sunlight only in the morning of yesterday, followed by a lot of clouds in late afternoon. That’s was why Mei-Shun rushed to walk in 乙戸沼 Park, worried a little if all leaves frozen and browned. To her great relief, a scarlet friend found the first step of her getting off the car. A flock of wild duck swam lively beside wind-distorted fountain traces.
Relax Pls
StandardHi, Tora-chan. Did you throw mom-in-law onto a tatami mat to occupy that chair? A fluffy cloth with black dots is to make a soft toy of your species, isn’t it? You look so graceful on it. Such a princess does not need to come down to a camera meowing — your Highness could be changed into lowness. Please kindly let Mei-Shun enjoy this heartwarming picture.
Calm Down Pls
StandardMei-Shun cannot help confirming that we are in October right now. It must be one of the most comfortable months, yet has both summer and winter this year. Our air conditioners sounded weird at first when she asked them to warm rooms: they played the opposite tune last week. It has been Mr. Aladdin who worked as one and only warmer so far. Oh, Mikan-chan, how clever you are to know the best place.
Double Leaves
StandardHere is our grapefruit pots. Interestingly, each leaf keeps a little “spare” nearer to the stalk. When bigger parts seem to get sick, Mei-Shun cut them out as follows expecting smaller ones to work. The latter do not grow themselves while facilitate birth of another bud. And the former still stay perfumed in that sweet fruit, currently dried to go back home soon.
