Friday Felines

Sylvester the joker

Sylvester is many things. He is the sleeper. He is the creeper. He is the midnight peeper.

Sylvester the cat, bolding going where no cat is supposed to go.

Some people call me the gangster of kitty treats

Here he is, along with the treats, my dark beer, the cat corrector (squirt-squirt-squirt), the catnip, and my husband’s wimpy wheat beer. He fears nothing. Except the cat corrector.

There’s the shy Sylvester.

Peek-a-boo, you with the camera

People keep talking about me

And then there is Sylvester the slob.

Fat Albert?

Space cowboy or pompitus of love?

He’s the cutest thing I ever did see.

These are the stages of sleep.

First, yawning.

Sometimes you feel like a nap.

Sometimes you feel like a nap.

Second, drowsiness.

You're getting sleepy ... your eyelids are getting heavy

You’re getting sleepy … your eyelids are getting heavy

Third, unconsciousness.

Comatose

Comatose

This is the longest stage. It can last for hours, sometimes days.

Don’t even think of popping him on the chin to make him bite that little pink tongue. No, I said don’t think about that.

 

 

Rainy day doggy

Don't make me go out in public like this

Don’t make me go out in public like this. And hide the cat’s pingpong ball, please.

It’s been raining since yesterday. And yes, dogs still have to go outside when nature calls. So Zeke has to look like the Gorton’s fisherman. Unfortunately, he considers it a punishment, like wearing a straightjacket, and most of the time he refuses to relieve himself. It’s a protest against the man.

We were getting ready to leave Sunday afternoon and couldn’t find Zoe anywhere. We looked in all his regular hiding places, the bathtub, all the closets, in his carrying cage, in the basement, behind the bed. We couldn’t find him, because he was completely hidden.

Pay no attention to the cat behind the curtain

Pay no attention to the cat behind the curtain

Where, oh where can our little cat be?

You're not supposed to be here. This is my place.

You’re not supposed to be here. This is my place.

Cats think that wherever their head is, that’s where they all are.

Zoe likes to lie in the sun on a cold day.

The sun is only half warm

The sun is only half warm

He’s probably wondering why it’s not as warm as it usually is.

Sylvester, on the other hand, usually chooses the bed or a bar stool.

Sylvester, thinking

Sylvester, thinking

This time it was the bed. And he was probably thinking about going to sleep.
