This time, my furry charges were Uju-kun and Tori-kun, a pair of Ragamuffin brothers.😊 

Two impossibly fluffy, utterly adorable kitty brothers.💕 

This is Uju-kun — the friendly one of the two. 

And this is Tori-kun — a little more bashful and shy. 

Uju-kun came right up to me and happily let me pet him.🥰 

Tori-kun let me pet him too — from the safety of his cozy cage.🥰 

After a little while… Tori-kun came tiptoeing out of his cage. 

Sticking close to his big brother Uju-kun, he ventured right up to me.💕 

Now that Tori-kun had joined us, it was treat time! 

The two of them licked away happily, side by side. 

Once they'd settled in a bit more, it was brushing time.✨ 

Uju-kun stood firm and let me brush him thoroughly, while Tori-kun let me brush him ever so gently. 

Their fluffy, cloud-soft coats were beyond words.✨✨ 

The most luxurious softness I've ever felt — pure therapy. 

And now, let's play with some toys!🎶 

Snap! They pounced on the dangling toy. 

And then — snap! — even the handle got nibbled too. 

By now they'd grown so comfortable with me that they came over together, asking for cuddles. 

Friendly little Uju-kun purred softly and rubbed against me with the sweetest affection.💕 

And bashful little Tori-kun flopped right over, belly to the sky.💕 

These two precious boys had me completely smitten by the end. 

Uju-kun and Tori-kun, you were both so brave through your five-day stay. Well done, sweet boys!😊

This time, I had the joy of caring for 

Ohagi-chan — a sweet little patterned hamster. 

It's so easy to see why her family chose the name Ohagi-chan. 

Her chestnut-and-cream markings look just like ohagi — the traditional Japanese sweet she's named after. 

😀

And true to her name… 

she really is so impossibly cute, you could just eat her up. 

✨😀✨

She lives up to her sweet name in every way. 

Sweet little Ohagi-chan, 

may your adorable little self keep bringing your family 

all the joy in the world.✨ 

Thank you so much.✨

Hello there — so nice to meet you! 

Wait — is that Aru-kun? Or Kanta-kun? 

The one waiting right by the door was Aru-kun! 

But the moment our eyes met, he startled and scampered off to hide.😆 

As for Kanta-kun — well, he stayed tucked away the whole visit, and I didn't get to meet him at all this time.😅 

But just as I was about to leave, Aru-kun came out to see me off at the door.❣️😭 

Oh, that made me so happy!😂 

Thank you, sweet boy. 

Aru-kun, Kanta-kun — 

please let me come back and take care of you again soon.☺️ 

Next time, I hope we can spend a little more time together( *´꒳`* )♡♡ 

Until we meet again!💕︎ 

Thank you so much for everything.❣️😊

This time, my playmate for the day was Kuu-kun, a sweet Chihuahua-Poodle mix. 

At eleven years old, Kuu-kun still has a hearty appetite and bundles of energy. ⁠◕⁠‿⁠◕⁠｡ 

When we played the treat-hunting game, he'd sniff away — "snuffle, snuffle" — like a little Sherlock Holmes, tracking down every last treat no matter where I hid it. 

And out on our walk, he took the lead like a true gentleman — "The walking route is this way!" — showing me exactly where to go. 

So dependable, so adorable — I was completely smitten with Kuu-kun.😊

The moment I opened the front door, 

a clear, gentle voice welcomed me in… 

Meet Re-chan — or Lemon Cream-kun — 

a two-year-old cockatiel.✨ 

Partway through my visit, 

I stepped out for just a moment to refresh his water 

and from the other room, 

I heard the sweetest little voice calling after me 

"Heeeey, where are you goooing?" His sweet little call-out melted my heart. 

"Re-chan, I'll be right back!" 

I called back, my heart already full. 

And yes — I may have hurried back 

just a little faster than usual. 

And then, to my delight, 

he sang me the loveliest little song.😭😭♬ 

Re-chan, thank you for such a beautiful gift.✨ 

What a wonderfully expressive little soul he is 

full of personality and charm.🥰 

A heartfelt thank you to his family as well, for the loving care notes they prepared for us. 

Even now, whenever I think of Re-chan's little song, I can't help but smile. What a warm, gentle gift to carry home.☺️

Today, let me introduce the adorable little youngest member of a family of rabbits and birds. 

This is Niki-chan, a stunning grey-and-white Cockatiel! 

At just 11 months old, she's such a fresh-faced little lady♡ 

And Niki-chan? Oh, she isn't just beautiful… 

She is one wonderfully entertaining little character! 

When she comes out of her cage, she struts around like she owns the place — eyeing her older sisters' and brothers' food, sneaking little nibbles of the rabbit's toppings! Haha. 

She'll happily hop onto my shoulder or back — so unbelievably cute — but the moment I speak to her, she gives me THIS face! Haha. 

That expression isn't a threat, by the way — 

apparently she gives this same look to her beloved family too. 

It's a photo you can't help but look at again and again. 

And here it is up close ↓↓↓ 

I'm told she also eats with grand, dramatic flair, flinging food about, 

and her family laughs, "Niki-chan, you're supposed to be a girl, aren't you?!"⭐ 

What an utterly adorable little youngest, our Niki-chan! 

Keep bringing those smiles to your family, sweet girl! 

Now, let me share a little update on the senior members of the family too! 

Maron-chan, the Lionhead Dwarf rabbit. 

She's turned 11 years old now! As adorable as ever. 

Mashu-chan, the Lionhead rabbit. 

That fluffy "mom cut" hairstyle suits her so beautifully.⭐ 

Lychee-kun, the Pacific Parrotlet. 

Still the biggest mama's boy, as always. 

The angle in this photo makes him look so wonderfully round — utterly irresistible! 

Chai-chan, our senior Cockatiel. 

She usually gives me a clear "please don't bother me" attitude… 

but the moment I put food in her bowl, she perks up just a little — and that's one of the small joys of caring for her♬ 

And last but not least — the "Karupisu Brothers" (named after the beloved Japanese milky drink), 

Karu-kun the Budgerigar and Peace-kun the Pearly Parakeet. 

They've been getting just a little bit plump, 

and word is they're on a serious diet right now. 

How are these two doing around the tummy area, would you say? 

Karu-kun 

Peace-kun 

Each one with their own delightful personality, and each one adorable in their own way. 

I'm already looking forward to seeing everyone again! 

Thank you so very much!
