Gave the cats their Easter presents early
I haven't bought wind-up chicks in years since Lydia goes like a serial killer and peels the fur/skin off them. But this is Neptune's first Easter so really wanted to give her one! I should have bought a different colour than green because I was thinking of Minnow when I did then realised on the way back she was gone. I handled her year death anniversary the best I could. My chest was tight all day, and I cried while making some Instagram posts in remembrance. I wanted to get haddie (haddock) bits from Pearle's In Paradise but they haven't opened for the season yet.
Anyway here is 2 short clips of the cats with the chicks where Lydia basically decided they were all hers. I uploaded some pictures on Facebook too.

Nepytune has her first birthday on May 6TH and she just keeps growing bigger. With Minnow she was like a small human, and Nicki & Lydia are cats. But Neptune is like some creature I let live in the house. Lydia's thirteenth birthday is April 1ST, and Nicolas' fourteenth is May 5TH. I have all their presents either bought already or ordered. Ordered Nick a fluffy purple bed because he has taken to sleeping on my suitcase I haven't washed/put away yet. Lydia I got a multicoloured bird toy (was getting her one of those self grooming brushes that suction cup to a corner bit PetValu only had the type that screw onto). Neptune I ordered some felted wool balls because she loves these pom-poms my adoptive sister sent to them at Christmas but I had to confiscate so she wouldn't eat the yarn pieces she pulled out. The felted wool balls were supposed to arrive already and the Seller resent them this week. I ordered her a little prawn toy just in case though. I also bought a replacement pump for their water fountain since Pioneer Pet is sending me a new clamshell housing & gasket for it. I bought it in January 2020 for Minnow and Nicolas & Nepytune use it. Pretty much the plastic parts are not fitting good anymore or becoming too hard to clean, but the porcelain parts are all perfectly fine still (the glaze darkened because of the sunlight though). I highly recommend the Pioneer Pet raindrop fountain. I run white vinegar through it and clean the parts once a week, and replace the filter once a month. They have them in stainless steel, plastic, and black ceramic too.
