Dad Day in the Sun

Angel Indigo earned her angels wings; please consider leaving a note of condolence at I Have Three Cats.

😿

Today is Father's Day (3rd Sunday in June) here in The States.

Happy Fathers Day to all with human and/or furry, finned, or feathered offspring!

Yay, Dads!

❤️ ❤️ ❤️

Tandems

A response to I Have Three Cats' blog post "Snoozing in Black and White", when Da Boyz are mentioned as tandem black cat nappers.

Here are a few arty items gathered that feature twin black cats:

'Two Reclining Black Cats" 1913 by Franz Marc.

Image found on social media.

Twin Black Cats Painting, found somewhere on social media.

Twin Black Kittens Photo, found somewhere on social media.

If you've got something good, why not have two, amIright?

So thankful for these two hooligans; love 'em to pieces!

CB is left, No Eyebrows Manny is right.

In MY chair.

Henry Update:

The thumb that Henry bit is fine; thank you for your concerns.

The H Man is doing well, except for those loose stools.

Have been in contact with the vet's office regarding this, and they feel our next step is chemotherapy.

We've discussed pricing, the medicines themselves, and the different delivery methods of an injection once a month or a pill every two weeks.

Jabs are in office; pill is given at home.

I am mulling over this information, and have discussed with The Hubby as to which makes the most sense for Henry and for us.

If anyone has been through this process, I'd appreciate your input.

Thank you!

Neon CB and The Nevsky

It's Caturday!

Chili Bruce was insisting on a taste of our dinner, and was being very pushy!

I snapped a photo of him, then jazzed it up using Lunapic.

Sorry, I've forgotten what filter and which border!

He Did It Again

Sweetnesday, Early July, 2014

Ooh, so happy to get pics of Sweetie!

She was basking in the sun.

And then, Celestial Paddy O'Malley wanted to be the star attraction!

Y'all know that I have tons of PO'M photos, so I have many of his photobomb images too.

When 'O' Cat Sweetie was shy, Paddy didn't have to worry about being on center stage, but as she gained confidence to stay nearby, he simply HAD to insert himself into the shot.

Minuet and Smiles

Angel Minuet earned her wings.

😿💔😿

It is cool, rainy, humid, grey, and the news about Madame Minuet is sad.

Therefore, here are a few naughty cat memes and cartoons, to bring a wee smile to your faces.

 It's PO'Monday!

Paddy O knew he was handsome; he'd pose for photos!

His tabby coloring made it easy for the camera to capture him in all his glory.

Friendly Bookmark

 I was delighted to receive a surprise package from Lethbridge, Canada.

John, from I Have Three Cats blog, knew I'd contributed to Lethbridge People for Animal Welfare, but the bookmarks were only available in purrson.

As much as I am thankful for the hard work John and the rest are doing, a trip to Canada isn't in the cards right now.

Therefore, John mailed a few to me.

Books and cats, cats and books...yippee!

Thank you, John...my very dear friend from The North, whom I sincerely hope to visit someday.  

*AND*

The Hubby and I have appointments next week for our first COVID vaccine injections.

Today, I am very thankful, and full of goodwill.

💔😿💔😿💔

We whisper "Good-bye, I love you!" and we hope and pray that they understand.

Their bodies are small compared to ours, but they fill the house, and our hearts.

Farewell Angels Josie and Ramses.

Now that you are free of your physical limitations, we weep for you because you've left us, but we rejoice that your souls are no longer constrained, and that we knew and loved you, either in the fur, or via the magic of the interwebs.

Three Tiny Tabbies

I've been following a quiet cat foster blogger for awhile.

Three Tiny Tabbies

Such adorable photos!

Here are her current fosters:

Vanilla Bean

Jelly Bean

Coco Bean, mama

Chip
These images are from Three Tiny Tabbies Blog

Someday, I will foster, probably after I retire, or win the lottery, or strike gold...

I am so very thankful for folks who foster, like Three Tiny Tabbies, Catscue, I Have Three Cats, Random Felines, Tails from the Foster Kittens, and so many more!

This is impawtant work, and I am humbled by those who foster and TNR.

Supawstars Spotlight Award, From Pets Overload

Johnny from Pets Overload awarded Eastside Cats a Supawstars Spotlight Award for February 2018!  We are humbled by such generosity, and appreciate the positive feedback for our blog.

Here are the rules:

• You are to choose 5 pet bloggers and link to their blogs and describe why each of them deserves this award
• You must encourage the pet bloggers you shout out to shout out 5 bloggers themselves
• You must leave a comment on each other blogs letting them know that you’ve given them the spotlight

If you look over at the right-hand side of this blog, you'll see a list of bloggers that I enjoy!  Every one deserves an award.  In the interest of following rules, however, here are five:

***

The Island Cats:  Zoey, Wally, and Ernie make me smile every day, and the woman with the yellow hair who is their catsecretary is crazy-pants in love with each of them!

Wandering Cat Studio: A wonderful blend of knitting, quilting, and cats!  So imaginative, and artistic.

Four Legged Furballs: Just the doodles alone are adorable, but three kitties and one goggie have wonderful stories to tell!

A Proper Bostonian: Floofy cats galore, and an interesting outlook on life, love, beauty...and Boston!  Not to mention tea, brewing tea, and purchasing the correct tea kettle.

I Have Three Cats: Observations on living with cats, written with quiet humor, that usually leave me pondering the human/feline relationship, and learning new things with every post!

***

Off I go to comment on each of these blogs, and I encourage everyone to read them, for you will find enjoyment as much as I have.

Thanks again to Pets Overload, who I would like to nominate right back, as a wonderfully funny, loving, and personal blog that reflects how living with cats is one of the best things about life!
