Other than our sad news about Nick earlier in the week, the cats’ lives have been quiet. At one time this week, we had four cats lounging on the tower at the same time. I think that’s a first. Rossie was in the bottom “bunk.” Lady was in the middle … Continue reading →
We never left, but our transcriber took off to parts unknown, and we had to wait for her to return. Rossie is in the dining room with Sneaky, and neither one of them is quite sure what to make of that situation, but they mostly ignore one another, and that’s … Continue reading →
The kitty situation is reasonably static. Sneaky and I are spending a lot of time together while I recover from knee replacement surgery in my recliner in her room. Periodically, she cavorts with a catnip mouse, and that brings a smile to my face. Ajax cannot stop pestering Sneaky, so … Continue reading →
Happy Saturday. Time for an indoor-outdoor cat update. Let’s start with the outdoor cats. We haven’t made a holder for the feeder with the timer yet, so I’m putting out a bowl of food in the morning. Walter is usually around between 2 am and 9 am. The long-haired gray … Continue reading →

We came back from San Antonio, and Sneaky avoided us for nearly a week. I finally set up the game camera and caught her sneaking around in the middle of the night, assuring me she was alive and well. Whew. Why was she avoiding us? Mr. L surmised it was … Continue reading →
Natasha has always been my special kitty. The photo above was an early photo after she settled into the house when it was just her, me, and Hershey (she ignored Hershey, and Hershey, wisely, paid her no mind) in Alabama. I found her on Petfinder in 2005. She’d been in … Continue reading →
Yes, the counter top in the kitchen gets a lot of traffic when we’re sleeping. Yes, I’m pretty sure your cats do this, too. Ours know they aren’t supposed to, but that doesn’t stop them. Ruby on the left and the ever-elusive Rossie on the right.

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 →
