Busy busy kitties

The weather has been cool but decent and it’s keeping the cats busy, hence the lack of visibility here. With warmer spring weather comes all sorts of activity outside for us humans, and the cats love nothing more than ‘helping’ us with various spring tasks.  It seems that no matter what we’re doing, there is […]

Very Cool New Toy

Mike and Griffin got busy over the weekend and made a nice new scratching post for the cats. Both cats, being rather large in terms of your average cat size, needed a larger post so they could stretch to their full height while scratching- a very important need for their back and legs.

He chose……poorly

Harmon has this fixated need for food; he does weigh around the 20# mark, big guy that he is, but he seems to want to eat everything without so much as a fraction of thought as to what it is or how it might taste. He has snatched peas off the floor, eaten popcorn, oatmeal […]

Bustopher delights in sneaking outside and twinkle-toe-ing across the patio in an attempt to sneak up on them with a surprise attack; he flattens himself as low as he can go and […]

more than a month late….

spring is on the way!

His life evolves around […]

What in the world….

Bustopher loves to ‘knead’ blankets; he gets that spaced out look in his eyes, he purrs really deep and he just kneads, kneads and kneads….sometimes drooling too. Most of the time he puts his rear up on the arm of the chair or sofa too as he does this.
I watch him, bemused. I have no […]
