Side Eye

It's PO'Monday!

Sometimes, Celestial Paddy O'Malley didn't want to be cute or lovey-dovey; often, he'd give me that 'look'.

As if demonstrating a wee bit of disdain.

Fiends

Sure, we love 'em to pieces, yet sometimes our cats are real fiends, no?

Electric

Chili Bruce, artified to look like chocolate, but many comments mention that he looked electrified, so I'm changing this post!

Folie à deux

Folie à deux: Madness shared by two

Thank you all for the lovely birthday comments, for enjoying the Spring sillies, and for the kind words for Angel Izzy and Eddie.

Although I've never met Izzy or Eddie, they hold very dear places in my heart, as do all of your blogged-about furry friends.

As the years tick by, it's love that sustains us, love that makes us strong, love that fills our souls.

Farewell and Gotchaversary

Sadly, Izzy from William of Mass Destruction recently earned his angel's wings.

Please consider leaving a word of condolence.

A Happy 3rd Gotchaversary greeting for Eddie, who lives in Manchester, UK with her adoring cat dad.

Eddie plans to take over the world, just sayin'...

Lighten Up!

Spring is a time of change, of rebirth, renewal, and really horrible weather.

I Did A Thing

The First Day of Spring!

And, for my birthday today, I'd like to reveal my new ink:

As Tat'O looks today.

Design

Done, in December 2022.

My friends, I mourn for Paddy O'Malley in ways I'd never thought of.

Some will consider this tattoo rather bizarre, yet it soothes my soul.

On the first anniversary of his death, an idea began to formulate: I'd be able to see his goofiness if I had a permanent image of him.

Pondering for months, I then researched tattoo parlors, tattoo artists, and gathered my favorite PO'M images.

I threw my trust into The Universe, and stepped forward.

You may wonder why I dislike Winter, but it's really that, like a child, I cannot wait for my birthday, usually in the First Day of Spring.

Happy Spring everyone, and Happy Birthday to others who have 20 March as their natal day, such as Brian's mum at Brian's Home.

And this Tat'O was my present to me, although Paddy O'Malley was the true gift in my life.

😻💕🎈🌷🌨🌞🍀😻

Last Day

The last day of Winter, means it's nearly time for the Vernal Equinox...and time for some Stonehenge re-creations.

These just crack me up!

Seems apt for the time of year, no?

Further Adventures of Spy Kitty

My co-worker texted yesterday morning:

"I'm here, my computer is not!

Having connection issues"

🙀

Wait a minute!  Let's hear what Spy Kitty says...

"Control to Spy Kitty, come in Spy Kitty"

"Meow!  You woke me up!  What is it, Control?"

"Need eyes on suspect; verify working...repeat verify working!"

"Geez Louise, Control!  Ease up..."

"Spy Kitty, you are paid in treats to do a job!  Hop to it!"

".....grumble, moan, purr..."

"Spy Kitty, we didn't catch that...repeat!"

"Control, she's working, and swearing at her computer.  I'm going back to my nap!...over"

"Spy Kitty, your ration of treats is on its way.  Good job.  Over."

"....Zzzzzzzzz...."

Spy Kitty, aka Lana

So thankful for good laughs with feline-owned teammates!

Shy

It's Sweetnesday!

Late Winter, 2015:

Sweetie wouldn't get too close to me.

For a long time, she was shy and wary, as these photos show.

Which is why finding her lazing on my torso when I awake in the morning is such a thrill!

You'll never be out there again, Queen Sweet; let Mama give you a smooch.

💋😽💋😽💋

A Different Duo

It's Twozday!

We present a different twosome for your viewing pleasure:

Ever since The Hubby brought his donut pillow home, it's been a cat bed.

Manny and CB, happily, take control of the pillow...and chair...at every opportunity, and often for hours on end.

The pillow is one-cat-only sized.

The Hubby may look corpse-like in this image, but he's only resting his back while on a yoga mat.

However, this shows just whom is in charge and gets the chair and the pillow, and who must use the floor.

National Napping Day

In 1999, William Anthony, a psychologist and author of "The Art of Napping", instituted National Napping Day. 

William said: “We figured this would be a good day to celebrate the importance of napping because everyone is one hour more sleep-deprived than usual. 

The fact is that the majority of Americans are sleep-deprived even without Daylight Saving Time."

Humans can learn from our cats!

Have a nice snooze!

😺😸😺😸😺

Ahead...

For some of us, the clocks skipped an hour early this morning.

Of course, Da Boyz and Sweetie were more than happy to be fed an hour early.

The humans are lagging a bit, however...
