I ordered self-heating cat mats, and they arrived this week. I wasn’t sure who would like them the most, but I think Delta has spoken. Instead of sleeping on my feet last night like she usually does, she spent all night on the mat. Natasha is enjoying the mat I … Continue reading →
The cats have had a quiet week. To our knowledge, Lady was not responsible for any altercations. However, Tarzan and Rossie had an under the ice cream table discussion in the hall outside the bedroom at 4am this morning. Needless to say, Mr. L was not amused. For some reason, … Continue reading →
Sneaky came inside for a little while, and she visited me while she was investigating the parlor for the first time. (She was getting ready to walk on my laptop keyboard and type her first Hangout message, which, I believe, was “poo”–more literate than most cats.) Rossie has been spending … Continue reading →
I’m going to focus today’s update on Rossie and Ruby, our most elusive kitties. I’ve noticed a change in behavior in Ruby since Floyd’s been gone. I’m not certain if it’s related to Floyd or just a coincidence. Ruby has been more approachable. She and Delta bookend my legs at … Continue reading →
Big Gray was too smart to be caught in the trap. He’d steal the bait by carefully lifting it off the trigger pad with his paws. I had to think of something else, because he’s too skittish to hang around and make friends with. I borrowed a wooden shingle from … Continue reading →
Today has truly hit post convergence, with the A-Z Blogging Challenge, the Merry Go Round Blog Tour post, and, of course, your regular Saturday Cat update (my version of #caturday), it’s a busy day of reading here at RandR. I got a couple of fairly close shots of Mooch last … Continue reading →
Sneaky answers to all those names. Mr. L calls her Squeaky (which she is), I originally called her Sneaky when she wouldn’t take the bait in the trap, and she has four white feet, somewhat resembling sneakers, so I sometimes call her Sneakers. Whatever we call her, we have a … Continue reading →
Yes, we have eight. Housecats. Because we do not want nine. Sneaky (Mr. L calls her Squeaky, and I sometimes call her Sneakers) has decided otherwise. She’s living here. She wants to. She wants ear rubs. On the side porch steps and nowhere else. We oblige. So we have nine. … Continue reading →
No, not more cats for the house, but we seem to have an “infestation” under the house. We’re on a major pathway between two possible “problem” houses for cats. One is our next door neighbor to the back who has a sort of a pet cat he lets live in … Continue reading →
Me, too. Well, I know where I am. I’m in the Central Texas location. I guess the question should have been, “Whatcha doin?” That’s was we always say Ajax is asking Natasha when he approaches her. I know what I haven’t been doing. I haven’t been writing. I haven’t been … Continue reading →
