Love Kitties? Sounds like a new age Playboy Bunny...

Meoowrew, hiss. Purr. Repeat...

Leave us not, in the interest of accuracy, omit the well-known retch-and-splat sound sequence.
We had for years a beautiful Big Red, Sting by name, who delighted in presenting this performance from the greatest height available, for maximum effect, both sound and practical.

The other day I heard enthusiastic hair-ball noises from a bedroom. Fearing the worst, I peeked around the corner of the doorway. All five fuzzers were there, snuggled into an unblemished duvet, looking at me as if I must be hallucinating. Nothing on the floor, either.

Ai, how do they do it?

They are cuddly and spunky and fluffy and they have tiny little noses!

They make adorable mewing sounds! Except when they burp and have gassies. But that's kind of adorable! But not when they stink up the joint.

If they're not sleeping in a little ball of aww then they're off having ADVENTURES!

*abrupt mood shift* And they are also the true overlords of human and dog. Unfortunately, dog-kind has yet to understand this. *blank/sober*

Dog-kind who had this sort of issue in the home in which I was raised and trained ("underfoot, with other children, and pets" is probably the proper advert-phrase Mom would have used in carrying out threats to find me a better home) were quickly disabused of any notion of canine supremacy by our Numbah One Black Pantha-Pussycat (nowadays he'd be called "Basement Cat" in a pathetic poverty of expression) who counted his coup in terms of cross-nose scratch scars. Why waste time? Use the old Ali rope-a-dope technique, back into a strategic corner, and come out with ten sharp ones. Lesson learned.

Of course, it may have been the dog breed in question. Heaven knows what that guy would have done with a Weimaraner - - probably co-ruled the world! With laugh-tracks.

Ayep, we're doomed.

*snicker*

Actually, the one combination you never ever wanna have is cats and ferrets, because they will convince each other to do things neither one would have EVER thought of on their own.

And anything interesting you own will go missing, believe it.

As the old saying goes, "Dogs have owners, cats... have staff" :-)

Just 2 now, Fizzgig and Orin The Fractal Cat (still growing). If Orin continues to behave like she is, she'll be as good a mouser as the Fizz....I think she's part Ninja. (We live in a rural area and the cats earn their keep :-)

And...I swear to ghod that Fizzgig just brought a mouse in! Trouble is she tends to bring 'em back alive!. Much mousie chasing shenanigins avoided for the moment as this one wasn't. I think she's just showing off to the kitten :-)

Both unbearably cute too of course.

Our cat Tinkerbell used to bring live mice back. One time I was in the livingroom. Mom was taking a nap in the bedroom. Tink went by (think "cat-on-a-mission") to the bedroom as fast as she could go, with Dad in hot pursuit. She jumped up on the bed, Dad caught her (mouse in mouth) and raced back though the house to the door to put them both outside. Mom never woke up.

Speaking of cats, I've been reading a good new picture book called "Cat Secrets" by Jef Czekaj. Kinder through third grade have loved it so far. It's their favorite new book of the week.

Superb youtube, frem!

That cat-and-ferret thing is probably an animal version of "folie a deux." For a human example, see Randy and Evi Quaid.

And while I'm computing this morning my cat creeps up behind me on the sofa, borrows half under a blanket, and now he's staring at me from his cave and purring. I'm so that stick figure in xkcd: "You're a kitty!" How am I supposed to get anything done with this going on?

Almost as cute as:

Which I've probably posted here several times but it just doesn't get old.
