Cats: On Vacation
The cats are on vacation this week. While they are not in Vegas, they remind you that what happens on vacation, stays on vacation. Or something like that.

Photo: Big Brother
Pretty Boy Floyd is such a good big brother: He’ll allow Daphne to chew on him and will tolerate her play fighting. If necessary, he’ll put a paw on her and pin her to the ground, but mostly, he lays down to level the playing field with her. Save

It’s cold outside, so Sneaky has eaten and gone back under the house to wherever she takes refuge (probably in some insulation ripped from ductwork, but I don’t really know). I had Lady out of the cage today until I heard a “thumping” sound from the kitchen. I turned around, … Continue reading →
Cats: Itemized
There seems to be lots going on in Kittydom. I’ll give a little rundown here. Natasha: She’s being a little clingy at night but normal during the day. She’s been grumpy with the other cats — I’m not sure if she’s grumpier than usual or what. Ajax: He’s been clingy, … Continue reading →
Cats: Sequestration Update

Lady is baffled and fascinated by her. She has supervised run of the kitchen and parlor for much of the day. Floyd lays down … Continue reading →
Cats: Lady Problems
I need a dog like Sprocket. Sprocket rescues lost and feral cats and helps his human take care of them. You’re all familiar with our brood. Lady and Tarzan were born in the parlor to Roxy, a kitty we fostered. Then there were the four ferals I trapped, too young … Continue reading →
Cats: The Kitten
Kitten doesn’t have a name yet. Mr L is avoiding handling her while she’s in quarantine, because he rubs his eyes a lot, and he’s afraid he’s going to handle the kitten, forget to wash his hands, rub his eyes, and get ringworm in his eyes. A valid concern. He’s … Continue reading →
Photo: And Kitten Makes 10
Saturday night, prior to an approaching storm which appeared to contain hail, we took the trucks to the shop and tucked them in. Then we walked back to the house. When we came around the corner of the gym at the high school, a white kitten was in front of … Continue reading →
