The rare and elusive Headnox has been caught during a post-surgery-call
nap period.

She's not actually sitting ON his head!! I always visualized the
Headnox as sort of resembling a kind of furry turban!

On occasion the furry turban does happen--I'll do my best to get an
image of that. I've got to wait for a chance when it's bright enough
in the room for the picture to come out, and for Nox to cooperate of
course. These were the best I could manage today.
Then there's the Lesser Headnox, where she's on one pillow and the
sleeper is on the other (only works if there's only one human in the
bed), and Nocturne Enthroned (a dark meatloaf on the top half of the
pillow, with your head on the other half).
There's also Expand-o-Nox, where for whatever reason (particularly if
we're making too much noise or moving too much) she decides to sprawl
across the pillow as much as possible, forcing the "hume" off almost
entirely. Sometimes enforced with kicks to the human's head. Pillow
division: One for Nocturne, one for the humes to try to share, usually
resulting in Dylan's head lying /between/ the pillows rather than on
one or the other. That's fair, right?

Me too, but they're still cute.

And there are even rarer species variants, such as this plump
Headtyche.
Coming home from work regularly yields scenes like these.

That's Kumani on the foot of the bed in that photo. Tyche (the
whiteface sister) was circling my feet as I took this image. Then I
lay down for 15 min and Tyche came and slept on my head. I couldn't
get to sleep, so I got up and took the camera and I took the
"headtyche" pic.

They are sort of hard to tell apart, unless you're paying attention.
(Well, at least for someone who has only seen them in photographs.)

IT's funny because to me, they look way different (Kumani has no
visible white! while Tyche has white gloves on all her paws and a white
face) but looking at that photo again, you don't see her face. That's
Kumani's back which looks EXACTLY like Tyche's back...as in the
infamous sisters pic

It's like the opposite of Karen's sister bitties, Silver and Scout.
Those two are impossible to tell apart from their very similar spotty
bellies.

Where does one bittie end and the other begin?
