  1. Every day is coffee day for me, and the stronger the better. Like the Henry ink.

  2. I'm a tea drinker instead of a coffee drinker but I appreciate all the pictures here. I love my one and only small LuckyCat. .

    1. Me too, but I once was a coffee drinker, and know the deep pull that stuff has!

  6. I didn't know this was Maneki Neko Day! I love them and have quite a few. And of course I adore coffee.

    1. I recommend a visit to The Lucky Cat Mewseum in Ohio; it's Maneki Neko from stem to stern, and of course I purchase a few so now my collection is at about six.

  8. Coffee first if others want to live.

    We had a cat at the shelter named Hibiscus. I always called her Biscuits because she was a couple of biscuits shy of a Pillsbury tube. She would swat and bite, and if you left your black coffee unguarded, she'd drink it. If I hadn't had too many other cats at the time, I would have adopted her.
