Omg. I think Horatio genuinely believes he is being chased by a jingle bell wielding assassin that he cannot escape. He just ran full speed into the bedroom, skidded around a corner and flew straight under the bed. Unfortunately I can’t reach him to try to get the bell off the collar and the bell isn’t attached with a jump ring or anything, so the only way to get it off is to completely bust it off.

Nebula seems fine so far though. She’s chilling on the bed looking very pretty in her new collar. 

I finally tracked down some collars for the cats, since I wanted to get them collars before the move. I kept putting off getting them collars because cute ones can be expensive. (I really don’t want the ones I got them to be permanent, except maybe Nebula’s. Hers fits her, it’s purple with rhinestones, Horatio’s is the same only black. I haven’t given up my search for a nautical themed one for him.) 

Anyway, I was really afraid that since they’re several years old now and have never worn collars that they’d be like oh, HELL NO to the collar thing, but a few minutes in, they seem fine. Like “Oh. Okay. I guess I’m wearing a necklace now.”

 The only problem is the collars have bells and I forgot until I put them on that Nebula HATES bells. Something about the sound of jingle bells -which damn near every single cat toy has- absolutely terrifies her. Luckily the bell is small, so she seems to be dealing with it, but I’ll probably take it off once she’s done eating dinner. Horatio doesn’t seem to care much for the bell either. He keeps running around like he thinks he’s being chased by something with a bell and he can’t escape it. 

But still, better than I was expecting.
