Recovering.
Friday morning, Belle didn’t jump on my bladder after the alarm went off. She didn’t come into our bed at all. She didn’t want to play and she didn’t come when I called her for breakfast. She was listless, but she did eat after I picked her up and set her at her dish. She didn’t struggle when I picked her up, or when I put on her harness or put her in the carrier. None of this was normal, so off to the vet’s.
Fortunately, they were able to get her in after only a short wait. Belle was diagnosed with an upper respiratory infection and a slight fever. They gave her a shot of antibiotics to combat it.
Today, she’s much recovered. Much more active and she walked all over me once she realized I was awake- no alarms on Saturdays or Sundays. Still, we’re keeping an eye on her.
I am quite relieved it’s minor infection and Belle is almost back to her old self.

Quinn is in his bed washing, Zena is on a chair with a kh warmer blanket on a soft cushion, I don't know where Merlin is, and Fred and Cinnamon are in their room, prolly in their cubes because it is freezing tonight...
Poor Belle, I’m glad you caught it early and she’s recovering!
Phoebe’s probably asleep under the bed - surprised I can’t hear her snoring. (ETA she’s just started 
). Daisy’s hard at work restoring the layers of fur removed from the bedspread when I washed and shaved it. Literally fistfuls of fur and lint came off it. (For the knitters out there, it’s Noro Ito and I’ve been using it for four years - it will never stop pilling.)

Nodding off in loaf position…his forehead dips down, hits the cushion, wakes him up a little bitty; repeat.
Repeat faceplants!

Chasing each other around from the living room, into my bedroom, and then into my bathroom tub. Then back into the living room and repeat the entire path over and over again.

Thanks. Belle is almost back to her old self. She was engaged with her morning brushing and was enthusiastically playing. Still, she prefers cocooning herself in the clean laundry where it's warm over her usual haunts.
My Tuxedo cat named princess is very loving affectionate and protective of her family.
My wife went into the back yard today and two stray cats started fighting my cat though my wife was in trouble flew outside and immediately engaged one of the cats kicked its rear and ran it off. She has show to be be very protective of her family on multiple occasions

Phoebe’s hiding under the bed because she heard me getting the instruments of torture out, ie the Betadine and cotton ball for cleaning her chin acne. She’ll be even less pleased to know she has to have eye ointment as well tonight.
Daisy’s snoozing on the bed, as usual. She’s slightly peeved because I went out twice this morning. She too will be even less pleased by the end of the week, because I have appointments every dratted day!

Got 4-5 in of new snow this morning. Tubbs ( the troublemaker ) sat in his spot by the window, all nice and warm and cozy and watched me running the snow blower up and down the sidewalks. He had that look on his face. I'm in here all nice and warm and cozy and you're out there freezing your tail off. Well... works for me.

Carleton knows when it's time for me to give him his evening medicine - he jumped on my husband's lap and burrowed into his leg as if to say, "Save Me, please." 
Phoebe’s snoring under the bed and Daisy is AT LAST getting the pets and scritches she’s owed. I’ve been out every day this week - shocking neglect.

Sassy is currently lounging on her cat tree in the living room, eyeballing the dog skeptically.

Well he WAS waking me up with a bloodcurdling yowl at 2AM Vincent Price would have adored….to proudly show me his prize: a thimble-sized mouse.
Supurrvising with their backs turned, because they’re that good.
Daisy’s zonked out after her great big five-minute walk earlier, and Phoebe’s just finished a major excavation in the litter.
