(Sleepy) Sunday Selfie

Now, My Dear Feline Furiends, I do understand that this picture makes it appear that I am some sort of Princess-and-the-Pea kind of guy. 

And it is hard to deny that indeed there are quite a few layers of comfortable padding here.

And to all that, I say:
"So?"

Adventure Thursday

So I have the Human firmly in paw and many are the evenings I make her life a living hell the tiniest bit uncomfortable if she does not allow me out into the hallway of our building to have adventures. At left, I have already been one floor up (there's another); at right, I am yearning to explore the third floor, though I know she wishes me to head into home. Which shall it be, Kitties? Which shall it be?

(Not Quite) Wordless Wednesday

My Human needs some toys to get her through these dull days of quarantine life, but honestly I don't feel like lending her mine. You know? 
You just can't trust that Humans are going to be careful with them. I think she might lose one and be too lazy to go find it again.

Easter Sunday Selfie: Hoppy Easter to Kitties and Humans!

In these very trying times, we send our best love to all of our friends, feline and human, and hope you all have a fine Easter day with lots of chocolate (humans) and toonas (kitties).

We know we have been gone for a long time, and this time she does at least have a reason. About two-and-a-half weeks ago, Yours Truly had a seizure. After lots of investigation, they have not come up with a cause, so we are proceeding cautiously. The Powers That Be say they do not want to put a kitty on meds on the basis of one incident, and I am pleased about that! I got a non-alarming bill of health, and have been fine since. I am eating like a little piglet, enjoying my playtimes, irritating the Human for sport, and sleeping like the Champ I have always been. My only real complaint is that she stares at me, and I am sure many of you older kitties understand that. It's just unnerving, isn't it?

Anyway, we're back (on our regularly irregular schedule) and hope to be around more often. (::glares at the Human::)

Today I must say farewell to my Beloved Iza-Lambie, who slipped off to the Bridge just yesterday, leaving Mark, Marley and Ayla to comfort one another as they mourn their beautiful girl. Iza-Lambie stole this mancat's heart with her enchanting silken tum, her feisty-yet-loving nature, her gleefully mischievous plans, and of course her inner and outer beauty. I will see you again, sweet girl.

I'm Here for My Brushies Now, Human

I mean, it's not like you have anything else to do. So hop to it, why don't you?

*We suggest biggifying as she can't seem to stop herself

from filming in portrait mode. She's always been a slow learner,

but now? Well, I'll leave that to your imagination.

Sunday Selfie: Quarantine, Day Whatever

Happy Sunday, Kitties and Peeps! My life is going along just fine, as it always has. But honestly, the whining and crying from the Human is well-nigh intolerable. She wants to go out, she wants to go to movies and restaurants and parks and stuff. At first she got all excited because the Powers That Be said people could go outside for some exercise, as long as they observed "social distancing," but then they said "except for the elderly" and, let me tell you, she's a textbook case of that.  Strictly speaking, so am I, but we'll leave that discussion for another time, shall we?
We hope you are all doing well in these troubled times, and if your Human is making you crazy these days, well, Welcome to the Club, My Brothers and Sisters.

Quarantine Quartet

Lincoln Way (upper left) is usually the second-busiest street on this side of the city, but not this morning; 4th Avenue (which runs along the side of our building) was likewise deserted, as was Golden Gate Park, save for a random dog-walker or jogger. The Human says the park was kind of nice that way. Me, I'm bored with this already. You?
