Cat In A Sink

I caught Emory in the sink last week. Hanging out. Having a snooze. He’s either the most insane cat I’ve ever had. Or the cutest. I’m thinking insanity’s the one. Whatever he is, I have to give him credit for not minding the dried toothpaste stuck to the sides of the sink. Or, for that…

Please Let Me Sleep

When Emory, our now 10 month old kitten, first arrived, I forgave his crazy night time antics. After all, he was only 11 weeks old and crazed kitten behavior was to be expected. He also came on the heels of losing Charles. And just a few months after losing a rescue kitten to FIP. We…

A Rat, A Cat In A Box, A House In A Box, And Rocks

Our new kitten

He’s in the refrigerator whenever there’s an opportunity. He’s particularly interested in the vegetable drawer. He loves it when Caroline carries…

Going on a lizard hunt

There’s a tasty lizard with a long tail behind this TV cabinet. If I weren’t so big I could get it! Maybe if I try around the other side. Darn! It’s just out of reach. 45 minutes later: Maybe I can lie here and just keep on an eye on it. Okay. I give up….
