Six days of home-alone care in a brand-new house they'd only just moved into. 

With a little anxiety in the air, the three of them did their best together😊 

"A stranger's here!" — and the two cats dashed off to hide in the cat tower. 

Taro-kun and Ryo-kun, two brother cats as alike as two peas in a pod🐱🐱 

So as not to mix up their names, I observed them closely, trying to spot each little difference. Staaare~👀✨ 

This is Taro-kun. 

While I cleaned, he went zip! and dashed off to hide in a cardboard box. 

And this is Ryo-kun. 

He retreated to the very back of the cat tower and wouldn't come out at all. 

And the third sibling🐰 

is Moka-kun the bunny. 

So friendly right from our very first hello! 

Taro-kun, who'd hidden in the cardboard box, soon let his guard down and relaxed. 

He'd wander around me as I cleaned🐾 

now and then chatting away with a little "meow~" as he circled about🐾🐾 

Before long, he was perfectly fine with being petted, too💕 

As for Ryo-kun, who wouldn't leave the cat tower, I lured him out with Churu — success! 

Perhaps a bit more at ease, he came out of the tower and wandered about. 

Not realizing this, and sure that the one wandering around was Taro-kun, I gave him a good, thorough petting🐱👋 

But looking more closely… 

why, it was Ryo-kun! 

It was Ryo-kun who'd been letting me pet him all along😍 

Friendly little Moka-kun the bunny loves his treats. 

The moment I opened his cage door, he'd lean in eagerly — "Hurry, gimme!" (ha!). 

When I cleaned beside him as he relaxed, now and then he'd scold me with a thump! of his front paw. 

So sorry to disturb your rest!😌

By the sixth and final day, everyone had settled into full relaxation mode🍀 

It made me so happy to see them warm up to me more and more each day. 

Soothed by these three adorable ones, I was a sitter brimming with happiness. 

By the way… could you tell the difference between Taro-kun and Ryo-kun?😄

June 27th is a very special day for Ken-kun. 

It's the day, eleven years ago, that he found his wonderful family.♥️ 

And so, this day became Ken-kun's birthday. 

Welcomed by such a kind family, Ken-kun spends each and every day in gentle peace. 

He's also the very best of friends with his beloved Meria-chan. 

Past ten years old now, and still as lively as ever, our Ken-kun. 

Happy Gotcha Day, and happy birthday!✨ 

May this be your very best year yet.

This time, I had the pleasure of caring for an adorable big family. 

Every one of them was so cute, I hardly knew where to look! 

Let's start with the cats. 

Ran-chan, a Ragdoll, and Karu-chan, a Somali. 

Ran-chan came close to me, but the moment I moved, she'd quickly slip away. 

Karu-chan, on the other hand, was wonderfully friendly — coming right up to me and even rolling over to show her tummy. 

Next up, the degus. 

They live two to a room♪ 

All of them full of energy, always eagerly awaiting their meals!😄 

Next come the chinchillas. 

Just when I thought they were asleep, they woke up, came over, and showed me their darling little faces.🥰 

And there's still more to come! 

Next, the squirrel and the voles. 

The squirrel popped out of his room to say hello. 

The voles ran round and round on a little dish — too cute for words!❤️ 

(Only two appear in the photo, but there are three of them!) 

And then, the ground squirrel and the hamsters. The sight of the ground squirrel munching away  

was just too adorable!❤️ 

The hamsters, too, kept peeking out from their hiding spots to show off their cute little faces. 

Last but not least, the gerbils and Goro-chan the rabbit. 

The gerbils are experts at tucking themselves away in the timothy hay. 

Goro-chan ate plenty and was bursting with energy.😄 

I wasn't able to get photos this time, but there was a hedgehog as well, and on top of that, 

a turtle, tropical fish, and even a catfish — what a lively, joyful big family! 

Each and every one of them, simply adorable.❤️ 

I lost count of how many times I said "so cute!" during my visit. 

May you all keep living happily together, side by side! 

Until we meet again!

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!

This time, the one I had the pleasure of caring for 

an adorable Netherland Dwarf rabbit. 

A sweet little girl bunny with bright black eyes 

and the most charming pair of ears. 

During our Meet & Greet, it was clear right away — Komugi-chan has been raised with all the love in the world by her family.✨ 

While I went about my work, she peeked at me curiously from beneath the table — this unfamiliar sitter clearly piqued her interest. 

When I gently approached her… 

She hopped right away. 

(But what an adorable little tail!🧡) 

Once cleaning was finished, Komugi-chan made her way back to her cozy home. 

And began nibbling peacefully on her timothy hay. 

✨😀✨

A little shy, a little reserved — a true princess in her cozy little castle. 

Sweet Komugi-chan. 

I hope we'll grow even closer next time we meet. 

Thank you for such a lovely visit.✨
