Posted on October 1, 2011 by

This afternoon I opened up the front and Julius decided to hang around home for a bit instead of heading off for parts unknown as he usually does.  So I was able to get some pictures for a change – it has been a … Continue reading →

There was a little bit of discussion in the comments of the hunting post of the day before yesterday about hunting triumphs. Kimkiminy related the tale of her cat Kabuki bringing home two mice in the same mouthful.  This is impressive, … Continue reading →

Posted on September 14, 2011 by

I’m a little surprised at all the comments the last post garnered.  It seems Internet strangeness is almost as interesting as cats!  I’m sure it was all a coincidence (or was it?) but around the time of the French/Canadian likeathon there was … Continue reading →

All Tucked In

Posted on August 1, 2011 by

The other day I mentioned an area that the cats don’t use much. This is a spot that someone is using nearly all the time. The bed is Gus’ favorite bed. I remember several years ago I picked it up … Continue reading →

Shoestring Catch

Posted on July 28, 2011 by

Calpurnia likes to play with strings. When she was new here, she played with the camera strap during a photo shoot. I happened to have a few extra black shoestrings that were spares from the last few shoes I bought … Continue reading →
