So, the other night my sweet Banjo was sleeping on his bed as the sun was setting and shining just a peek of light through the window onto him.  I couldn't help but take about 100 photos of him sleeping.  And I admit, I was poking and prodding him to wake up so I could see those beautiful eyes of his.  Ha ha!  Crazy Cat Lady at it's finest.  I'm guilty.  He is so damn cute!!!  I seriously don't know how I got so lucky to have 4 of the most beautiful animals on the planet! 

This poor boy got neutered & had his front claws taken out this week.  But he is doing so good and back to his usual self getting into all sorts of trouble around the house.  But now he can claw his way onto Nico's cage, or tear up the couch, or claw Bella when he jumps on her, or climb the curtains, or.... He can still chew things up though!!!  Right now he's on a wicker kick. (praying he doesn't start on my peacock chair)... My current background noise is him chewing the hell out of a cardboard box!  But look at that face!!!  He's so cute he can do no wrong. 

Ive had to rearrange plants b/c hes been killing them by jumping in them, and I think peeing in them from time to time.  All of a sudden they started looking horrible!  Two he completely killed.  Were having to do some Banjo proofing around here these days. 

Violet and him have become the best of buds.  They play alot together and its so sweet.  They never get aggressive with each other and they enjoy each other so much.  Bella still wants nothing to do with him and still hisses at him all the time.  Banjo has figured out that there are deer outside the window in the evenings, so he loves to sit in my studio window and watch the deer.  And he loves to cuddle with his dad in the afternoons when he comes home from work and sits on the couch.  Banjo gets right up on him and purrs.  Something he doesn't do with me anymore, so it's pretty special.  His current favorite toy is the cotton bag with a drawstring that came off our new pillowcase set.  He runs all over the house with it dangling from his mouth!  And he has one crazy voice on him!  He is extremely vocal.  If we go in the other room and close the door, he will stand outside of it and cry.  He cries when we put him in his room for time out or to go to bed at night.  He cries while playing with his toys.  I guess I shouldn't say cry, b/c its not all crying, he is just very vocal about everything.  So different than Bella.  He is different from her in every aspect! 

Banjo Juniper has been the biggest blessing to us.  We love love love that little stinker!
