Cats, cats, cats

That furniture is so Nitro! Here's a snapshot from the photo shoot yesterday. yes, there is a kitten in the picture.

He's adorable, as is the kitten. He once weighed over 300 lbs and got into nutrition and fitness. Now he's a fitness/nutrition coach and I'm going to have him help me a bit. He is, indeed, made all the more handsome by his fantastic smile, non-judgemental attitude, and love for the kitties.

Go away, we're sleeping.

Queenie, that cat is huge! Do you know what she weighs? And what is the attraction of sleeping on the back cushion of the sofa. My cat loves it there too. I think my sofa cushion is cushier than yours.

Of course she would. Any good Queen Cat would.

As for cats on backs of sofas... My Fia loves it. She startled me yesterday as I did not know she was there, and she was literally inches from me.

When we first introduced Boy Cat (the tuxedo) into our household, he plagued Girl Cat like whoa (hence the comment "I would never ambush my brother when he was asleep.") They're brother and sister, but had been separated long enough that they'd forgotten each other.

One day, HE lay on HER side of the sofa and smirked. She hopped up onto the sofa and glared. He did a paw slap. Then I swear she stomped and snorted just like a sumo wrestler....and he fled. Don't wanna know what she said.

Suits me fine. Tell Mr. Tuxedo to budge up.

I wish I good get a cet. Hubby allergic

thanks..good idea

never knew there was such a thing. You girls are so smart

Our shelter has 3 shifts per afternoon of volunteers who go in to socialize and play with the kitties. It's about 8-10 people each afternoon. I think there are more on weekends. Each person's shift is 2 hours. The dog side has dog walkers twice a day. Plus runners "get fit with fido" and hikers.

Queenie ~ I wonder why it is that the kitties forget their siblings? My heart cat and his twin were brought together for a play date once upon a time..... it did not go well. They were inseparable as babies but a few months apart and they became strangers Good for sissie standing up to brother! Her side of the sofa? My goodness, a girl can only be pushed so far😾

Ruth ~ Pretty kitty, pretty garden!

Wren ~ was this the same rescue that was the lovely little old lady-cat? Poor Squeakers! He has put up with some bullies Kiitty leash training is hard! I've only ever had limited success with mine. What type of harness do you use? We are protective of our fur babies aren't we? I had a friend who one time threw herself between her baby and a charging large dog........ her "baby" was just a wee 110lb Rottweiler! She was a protective pet mamma, lol! Glad you didn't have wrastle any critters to protect Squeakers 😺

Excellent ideas about playing with the homeless kitties! I usually don't like FFH....if he were allergic, I'd be tempted to NOT change my clothes 😽 (hmmm.. he does have a bad shellfish allergy) Shhhhh!

Oh yes! I have experienced the civil disobedience Finding something that is slip-proof but cat comfy is difficult. My Ragdoll, Disheveled Andrew, would wear a leash and harness for vet outings as he was uncontrollably violent in a cat carrier. He ripped out most of the claws from his front paw one time! Andy was a good car rider though. He wore a mesh puppy vest/harness. I've seen, but never tried the Come With Me Kitty harness and the Kitty Holster. They are supposed to be escape proof. Pris is too timid to try leash walking. Squeakers is a good kitty!

Marti & Andy out shopping - guess who was the happy one?
