Maru’s old star vest was always a little tight on him, but it’s a nice fit for Hana and Kitten Miri. And in a new Maru memory, His Roundness is back in the bowl.
Maru’s Still a Star
Maru and Hana and Miri
Japan’s least claustrophobic cat, Maru devotes his life to squeezing into any box, while his partner Hana puts up with this silliness.
Hana’s Hand-me-down
When Maru was a little boy, he had a favorite feather toy.
But now that Hana’s got the thing, it has a bell for her to ring.
But Kitten Miri has the best of toys: A tent that lets her make lots of noise.

Hana Needs to Knead
Hana doesn’t just like to make biscuits with her cushion — she has a burning need to knead, which has Kitten Miri very concerned.
Thanks, Andrew Y., we needed that.
