Anastasia
If you can�t get the real thing, make do with shaved fur! 
Anastasia snuggling with Tara�s hair after grooming.
Oscar used to sleep with Virginia on the bed everyday.  I let Oscar do it too, but I think she�s too scared to do it when Anastasia on the bed too.  Besides, Oscar runs off even when I make the slightest movement.  Anastasia, on the other hand, has claimed my bed as her own.  Now she sleeps on my pillow on top of my head every night.
Anastasia loves dairy products.  About once a month I would buy some and share it with Anastasia, Oscar, and Tara.  Anastasia has also taken up sleeping on MY pillow at night.  So every night, I have a warm furball on top of my head.
After several weeks of temperature over 110 degree (heat index), finally there was a break in the hot weather, down to 85 degrees during the day.  Still warm, but it�s so much cooler than before.  I guess Anastasia got a little chilly and decided to sleep in the bowl bed.
Virginia got hooked on knitting and she made two sweaters for Anastasia.  Here is Anastasia modeling the white one with blue trim.
Anastasia does not like to wear clothes.  She does not chew or try to tear them apart, but I could tell she doesn�t like to wear them, whereas Oscar likes to wear them to show them off, but then Oscar thinks she�s a human, and Anastasia knows she�s a cat.  Anyways, after I put the sweater on Anastasia, she was walking around, sulking a little bit, then she walked up to Oscar, sniffing her.  At least she didn�t take her frustration out on Oscar.
