Wordless Wednesday - The Cats in my Office

Is It Christmas Yet?

No, Timmy, it's not Christmas yet, but (as Bob Dylan says), "it's gettin' there"! Actually. this picture is from last year's holiday season: Timmy hopped onto the hall table to pose with the Christmas angel. Or so one would think. Truth be told, that clever cat knew darn well a pouch of catnip lay hidden in the drawer!

For those who don't know the story, Timmy was named after Tiny Tim, of the Dickens tale, A Christmas Carol. We saw this poor little guy hobbling on three legs one very cold Christmas, and so we saved him - that's the very short version of the story!

As always, there are more happy "tails" over at The Friday Ark and then Carnival of the Cats on Sunday.

Is this how it's done?

Having watched Longfellow many a time roll over and let it all hang out, Manitou decided to practice the move, and when he finally got it, he looked at me as if to say, "look, I can do it too, and notice how my paws are cutely tucked in!"

As always, there's more to see at The Friday Ark and then Carnival of the Cats on Sunday.

Wordless Wednesday: Handsome, Aren't I?

Where Have All the Flowers Gone?

Ah yes, a question Manitou seems to be posing amid the empty pots and tables that were not too long ago overflowing with blooms and all manner of green things.

See how others are coping with the change of the seasons at The Friday Ark and then Carnival of the Cats on Sunday.
