My housemates texted me a couple days ago to tell me that a giant package had arrived with Snoo on it while I was away taking care of my cousin's kids. I assumed it was the package my boyfriend had arranged to have sent to my house instead of his apartment (he participated in the Decorate Your Dorm exchange), but when I got home, lo' and behold, it was a big box with a gorgeous painting of my twin kittens Fíli and Kíli on the side in dwarf armour!

The fact that my gifter recognised their names (two of the dwarves from the Hobbit) and had taken the time to make some awesome art of them was fantastic enough! I didn't get a chance to open the box until later in the day, because I had to take my babies in to the vet for their spay/neuter surgeries.

When I got home with my woozy kitties, I opened the package to find an awesome jungle gym for to occupy their little pain-medicated butts for HOURS at a time. They couldn't use the little built-in tunnel at first because of their cones of shame, but now they're starting to explore it. My housemates and I have begun calling it their Fortress because of the way they'll sit on/in it and wait for something to pounce on.

Also included was a cat teaser with a mouse toy on the end that makes squeaking noises when they play with it. I'm training them to kill now, hehehehehe... (We live next to a big field, so we get the occasional mouse in our basement, but more importantly, one of my housemates has a crippling fear of bugs and the kittens are the perfect bug catchers.)

Fíli and Kíli absolutely love their new toys. They've even stopped spending their whole day rolling around in the bathtub to spend spend more time climbing on their gym and playing with my housemates. Thank you so much, anonymous gifter!

(P.S. My housemates got a kick out of the bubblewrap in the box, so everybody's happy with you.)
