Saturday Caturday: Leena approves of the porch furniture
She is enjoying BIRD WATCHING (since I don’t allow any of her preferred passtimes of BIRD CATCHING and BIRD MANGLING) in this picture. She’s always been the more adventurous of the two kitties (Caspian is sitting on the other side of the sliding door where he can “safely” watch the outside without having to, y’know,…

Saturday Caturday: unicorn-cats… unicats?
Recently I picked up a product that I’d only seen online but found in a random little shop I was exploring… Inflatable unicorn horn FOR CATS. Because who doesn’t want a pet unicorn? The horn had to be duct-taped twice, once for each cat to wear, because each one figured out how to hook a…

Saturday Caturday: loving the camera?
So, Leena is apparently into my camera the way Caspian is into shoes. See? What Caspian does with my shoes, Leena has started doing with my camera. I first noticed it when I was sitting here writing for a previous day’s post, and I kept hearing a scraping noise behind me. It didn’t sound terribly…

BEDA day 3: Saturday Caturday with the “invisible tigers” at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park
Well, today got away from me but it’s still before midnight so this counts! Today I went to the SD Safari Park with some friends from Orange County who came down for the day. The thing about the Safari Park is that I go on a fairly regular basis, so I notice when things change.…

Just another cat video: Caspian chasing his tail
Yeah, I know the internet doesn’t NEED another cat video, but surely the internet WANTS another cat video, right? Caspian does this ALL THE TIME and no one ever gets to see, even when I try to cleverly flip a video-chat camera around. Tuesday I finally caught him on camera, so here you go. He’s…

Living Room, at last
Over the weekend, J and I finally (FINALLY!) got rid of the last of our “extra” stuff. We donated the vast majority of it (including the last of our free furniture from when we were first married) to a local group that runs three thrift stores that benefit disabled veterans– Disabled American Veteran Thrift Stores.…

United Against a Common Enemy: the vacuum
Not often to the kitties sit together on any piece of furniture, let alone the cat climber. But sometimes they STAND UNITED against a COMMON ENEMY: the VACUUM. (Neither is actually afraid of the vacuum, but it is noisy and tends to be cleaning places they usually sit, so retreating to the cat climber is only…

Fat Cat, Skinny Cat: How I got my overweight cat to lose weight
For years now, I’ve had a problem: one of my cats was too big. Caspian’s always been a big guy, and has really large paws (mitts, really) and is tall and long… but he’s also bad about clearing his food dish AND the other cat’s if she doesn’t eat quickly enough and I’ve never been…

A couple of random photos from my new camera
I got a new point and shoot camera for Christmas (sometimes it’s nice to just have one with you, so you don’t have to lug around a full size camera bag; this one fits nicely in my purse!), and pulled a few photos off of it. First, seeing The Hobbit in 3D with my sister: We were…

Merry Christmas!
What did you unwrap? My paper seems to be full of kitties…
