In just a little over an hour from the time of me writing this, Alyeska Garnet [insert last name here] will officially be a year old! She's grown up so fast it's kind of unreal, looking back on it and all of the photos of her I took while she was still little.
I honestly love her with all my heart (<3), including all of her little quirks which include:
1) She is such a fussy eater! Early on she enjoyed a mix of wet salmon, turkey, chicken, and tuna fish canned food, but now she'll only accept the salmon.
2) Whenever she's finished with a meal she covers the bowl with a blanket. (I heard this is an instinctual habit similar to how they would bury their food out in the wild?)
3) If a toy lands in her food bowl, she won't touch it. She'll pout about until I remove it myself, at which point she'll start gobbling her meal down instantly.
4) Whenever she's done eating, she wipes her paws on the nearest towel or blanket.
5) She has three places she sleeps. The first is her igloo bed - when it became too small for her, she removed the inside cushion and now sleeps inside the sleeve. She has a normal cat bed as well, which she frequently moves around her den by shunting it with her nose and pushing it along. Half of the time though she sleeps on top of her litterbox, which I do not understand.
6) One of her favorite games is "catch the tail". She'll leap onto the top of a chair (that has a gap at the neck area), lowers her rump down one side and her head down the other, laying on her stomach almost, and she peaks through the gap, staring at her tail. She'll proceed to fit her forepaws through the gap and try to grab her tail, usually meowing every time she misses.
7) Not a quirk, but her favorite toys are spring toys.
8) She chases her tail in circles. A lot.
9) Whenever she wants cuddles she'll force her head under my head, mew once, and look at me with giant round eyes, and her ears are flattened. She honestly looks so goofy and cute.
10) I have a water air purifier with my room which is activated by pressing a touch sensitive button. She'll often stand on this on all four of her paws and continuously press the button, check the air flow, meow in surprise, rinse and repeat.
11) She has a thing for buttons, and climbing on coat hangers to get to the places on coats where there are such buttons.
12) She loves to bite my feet, so I have to wear slippers whenever I'm around her.
13) Alyeska has a habit of wanting to climb in the refrigerator. Many a time I've opened it for more than a couple of minutes and I looked back to see her sitting on the inside in the loaf position.
14) Probably more that I'm forgetting. Welp.
Happy birthday Alyeska!

Luckily she showed no interest in it at all. She was more intrigued by climbing up my regular lamp, which I have since also removed. )

It makes me a little sad cause I love the look of salt lamps myself but I have no good places to put one. My three cats are little feinds.

My room is basically empty at this point. Canvases, figurines, my coat hanger, all the things... Gone for now until she gets out of her chewing habits. *Shrug*

Nope. According to many sources online most cats just harmlessly swallow them, usually in their sleep. During her early months here she mostly stayed in one half of my room in a designated play area, and I saw no evidence of baby teeth littering the ground there. *Shrugs*

When one of my grandma's cats had a litter, we found one on the floor while sweeping and my grandma put it in a box along with some of my baby teeth. Don't know where that particular box of teeth went though. I think my mom may actually have it.

I bought her some new scratching mats for her birthday and she's using them already, and is purring subtly!
