Happy Caturday! Today’s visiting cats, from reader Amy F., are sweet innocent angels — “when they’re sleeping.”

Two black and white cats lie on a white quilt facing each other, with their legs intertwined
But when we aren’t, watch out.

Happy Caturday! Cats are notorious productivity killers; some days they won’t even let you go to work, as reader Tara O. relates:

This is Butch giving zero Efs that I needed to get dressed to go work. But we discussed it and he decided that, why yes, yes, he would like me to go to work to bring home the bacon. He likes the bacon.

A tuxedo cat with black fur and White markings on its chest and muzzle stands on a piece of striped cloth while a human hand attempts to pull that cloth away
Not sure why you need this to get bacon, though.

When people say “Cats have nine lives” it’s because our feline friends do dangerous things that make humans nervous. For Caturday, here’s an example from reader Georgiana Y.:

Both Skye and Storm love sitting on this half wall and watching me prepare diner but it really makes me nervous because it’s a big drop to the basement stairwell on the other side and I’m afraid they’ll fall and hurt themselves.

Two cats sit on a narrow wall inside a house
Oh, we’ll be fine, unless there’s a breeze.
