In case I haven’t bummed y’all out enough over the last week, a local friend lost her two month old baby suddenly and unexpectedly yesterday. Donations are being taken for hospital bills and funeral expenses. When I was with Katy last week she was worried about capturing Shaundi’s elusive smile on camera — not payingContinue reading “cat tails and sad news.”

a cautionary tale about rescue dogs and toeless cats.
The one Monday we had a dog, things didn’t go so well. Mae was supposed to go left, instead she went right. My bedroom door was supposed to be closed, instead it was open. An epic chase ensued. Wink climbed walls, bounced off windows, ran through tiny spaces and bounced so high off Addie’s bedContinue reading “a cautionary tale about rescue dogs and toeless cats.”
wink and his tickle pickle.
Wink likes catnip, like a lot. Last week I bought him a couple of tickle pickles on fab.com. (Frightening paranthetical, do not google ‘tickle pickle.’) I figure with the whole one eye half an ear thumb thing he has going on the guy could use a few good pickles and tickles. By the time heContinue reading “wink and his tickle pickle.”
one year, two cats >(^._.^)(^._ ^)< and a holiday.
Today is National Cat Day. Let us all give a celebratory ‘mrow’ and take seven naps out of respect and honor for the feline. Yesterday was Wink and Percy’s one year adoptiversary. They celebrated by kneading my boobs and walking across my keyboard, today they will be getting rabies shots and thermometers up their puckers.Continue reading “one year, two cats >(^._.^)(^._ ^)< and a holiday.”
cats in babyland.
Our cats joined us six months after Vivi joined us, which means they came into a home where there was no real risk of being attacked by a baby unless being shrieked at could be considered an attack. We never intended to rescue two cats, but when I went in to visit the one eyedContinue reading “cats in babyland.”
cat wrangling and winkleweeds.
I came downstairs this morning to Cody wearing gym clothes and heavy leather work gloves. Addie was hiding in the corner and in the middle of the floor was an open cat carrier surrounded by tufts of orange hair. Wink was on the fireplace, back arched, emitting primal cat sounds. In a show of earlyContinue reading “cat wrangling and winkleweeds.”
wherein my cats eat like kings. very rich and spoiled kings.
Riddle me this. Clearance kitty with bonus toes, one eye and a lopped off ear has had absolutely no problems adjusting to life in our house. Aside from inching closer and closer to Cody’s face in the middle of the night as he sleeps, clearance kitty has been a rescue kitty dream come true, well,Continue reading “wherein my cats eat like kings. very rich and spoiled kings.”
master of the (random) ankle biting universe.
DUDE YOU GUYS I CAN TASTE SUNSHINE. This cat, he hides in the curtains all “YOU CAN’T SEE ME” style and then runs out and attacks your ankles as you walk by. Ninja style suckas! Then there’s the one eyed cat who got tangled up in a cord tonight and tried to escape by chewingContinue reading “master of the (random) ankle biting universe.”
how cats are good for your inner thighs and bad for your rear.
For some reason these cats think that right behind our feet is the place to be. Especially when we’re in the kitchen. Wink gets a 50% pass with the whole one eye thing, but Percy…Percy’s sneaky and fits right in my blind spot. I nearly tripped on the darn cat twice, which caused me toContinue reading “how cats are good for your inner thighs and bad for your rear.”
cats, pies and paws.
These cats have been around for almost a month now. Percy walked in from day one and pretty much owned the place. He’s had a few struggles, first there were the worms, then he somehow got a huge laceration on his neck that got infected. He had to have an antibiotic shot, his neck shavedContinue reading “cats, pies and paws.”
