It was a visit with a family of three cats, a chipmunk, and a degu — 
such an adorable household.❣️ 
 
🐱Chii-kun, a mixed breed. 
The big brother with a hearty appetite. 
 

 
Chii-kun, who can't resist his food, 
once he's finished his own meal, 
goes off to eat the others' food.😋💨 
So the other cats' bowls 
have lids that open only in response to that cat's own microchip.💡 
Even so, he'd seize any chance to go after their food.😂 
 

 
🐱Komugi-chan, a Minuet. 
The timid middle child♡ 
 

​ 
The most timid of the three cats, Komugi-chan🐾 
is so shy she'd hide away somewhere whenever I visited. 
I'd wondered if she might not come out at all during my visits, but 
the moment I started waving a toy, there she'd be at my side before I knew it…✨ 
From the very first day, mixing in with the other two, 
she joined right in on the play.🎶 
She let me pet her, too, and Mama told me 
it was rare for her to warm up from the very first day.🎉 
By the time she'd settled in, she'd even come nuzzle affectionately at my feet.🤗 
 

​ 
 
🐱Kuromu-kun, a Russian Blue. 
The curious little youngest♡ 
 

​ 
Right from our meeting beforehand, 
he seemed thoroughly curious about me.🎶 
He'd come to welcome me, 
and during my care, he'd watch what I was doing from close by.🐾 
Once he'd grown comfortable, Kuromu-kun spent his time as free and easy as could be,🤗 
now and then playing chase with Chii-kun. 
 

​​ 
 
And they all love their crinkly, rustly toys.❣️ 
Running, leaping, tumbling over, 
they played away so joyfully.😆 
Chii-kun and Kuromu-kun would sometimes make great big leaps, too. 
At the sight of them all playing so adorably, 
I simply couldn't stop snapping photos.🥰 
 

 

​ 

​ 
 
🐿️Chocola-kun, a chipmunk. 
 

​ 
At our meeting beforehand, 
I'd been told Chocola-kun might bite, as his mating season had just ended.😌 
But surprisingly, perhaps he took an interest in me, 
because he came close and showed me his adorable self.💖 
He even ate his food right in front of me, and 
with every bite, his cheeks puffed up little by little — 
so unbearably cute that I couldn't stop snapping photos.😍 
 

​ 

​ 
 
🐭Yukimi-chan, a degu. 
True to her name, her coat is pure white.✨ 
 

 ​
Coming up to my hand without any fear, 
running merrily on her wheel, 
nibbling away on her pellets — 
Yukimi-chan, with her adorable little ways, 
had me unable to stop snapping photos, too.💕 
 

​ 

​ 
 
The charm of each and every one of these animals 
could be savored all at once — such a fun visit it was.😊🎶
