This is Nori-kun.😊 

A heart-meltingly adorable little boy who absolutely adores his mom.😊 

He also loves a good chat, 

and he's such a clever one, always answering me back so thoughtfully whenever I speak to him.💕 

He loves his mom so much that the moment I told him, "Mom's coming home tomorrow!" — his eyes lit up like stars.🙌 

What a beautiful visit it was, surrounded by the unmistakable warmth of love given and love received.😊 

Nori-kun, please tell me more of your stories next time.😊 

Thank you for such a wonderful time together.✨

This time, we had the joy of caring for two sweet sisters, Hina-chan and Arare-chan.😊 

Together, their names form "Hina-Arare" — the colorful little rice crackers eaten during Japan's Doll Festival.💕 

What a charming pair of names!☺️ 

This is Hina-chan.🐱 

The moment I started preparing meals, she came right into the kitchen with a sweet little "Meow!" to gently remind me.😊 

And this is Arare-chan.🐱 

Arare-chan also made her way quietly into the kitchen, her silent gaze saying it all — "Is dinner ready yet?"😄 

"Sorry to keep you waiting — here you go!💕" — and the moment the bowls touched the floor, both girls were happily munching away. 

While I cleaned up afterward, the two of them watched over me side by side.☺️ 

And then, each sister found her favorite spot to settle into.🐾🐾🐾 

Hina-chan headed straight to the cat tower 

for a thorough scratching session.✨ 

Arare-chan curled up on her little animal-shaped chair, 

tucked into the elegant "loaf" pose, perfectly relaxed.🍀 

A peaceful, gentle kind of happiness filled the air as I cared for these two sweet souls.🥰 

Hina-chan, Arare-chan — thank you for such a lovely time together.💕

Choco-chan always watches over me from the top of her favorite cat tower. 

She rarely comes down from her perch, so when she does step closer to say hello… 

…I get completely carried away. "Choco-chan, let's play!" I say, holding out a toy — only to receive… 

…a stern look from Choco-chan that clearly says, "Not yet, you're not ready!" Yes, ma'am — I'll go train harder and try again. 

Choco-chan, thank you for always watching over me.

This is Minnie-chan, with her gorgeous caramel-colored coat. 

She absolutely loves her vitamin tablets — by the time we leave, every last one is gone✨️ 

And here's Kusa-chan, waiting patiently for her meal. 

True to her name, she adores her hay🌿 

Lined up and munching away — the boys' team🐾 

From top to bottom: Sode-kun, Pio-kun, and Pota-kun. 

Every one of them a little foodie, chatting away as they eat and eat and eat😋 

The girls on the lower level tend to be a bit shy, but Timi-chan is always the exception — popping out to say hello and even staying close during cleaning time. Such a helpful little sweetheart☺️ 

Hoshi-chan, with the little white spot on her head, and calico Pii-chan were both tucking into their veggies with gusto! 

The kitties were holding down the fort too. 

Pero-kun came by on the first and last days to politely request "Open the door, please!"🐈️ 

And Runta-kun stopped in regularly, as if to say, "Are you doing a good job?"😼 

Sweet Moru-kichi-kun and Cha-chan had passed away just before our stay began, and Pupu-chan and Hamu-chan were at the vet during this visit. 

Though we didn't get a photo, Shoyu-kun the chinchilla was part of this big family stay too. Every one of them did their very best. Until we meet again🍊

Today's visit was with Kinako-chan, a little one with the most expressive face you've ever seen✨ 

That sweet, curled little mouth — I just can't get enough of it❤️❤️ 

She greeted me with all sorts of adorable poses😊✨ 

Such a sweet little cuddle bug♪♪ But then…!? 

Hunting? She's a natural✨ Snap! She caught her toy mid-air with perfect timing👏👏 

"I'm not just sweet, you know?" — I got to see so many wonderful sides of Kinako-chan today♪ 

Our time together flew by in the blink of an eye. 

Kinako-chan, I can't wait to see you again❤️ Thank you, sweet one✨
