Cats of the Round Table

And so, King Arthur gathered the bravest knights in the realm to join him in his court at Ca-mew-lot: Sir Cumspect, the Prudent; Sir Rostratus, the Hazy; Sir Cuss, the Acrobatic; Sir Cumference, the Pudgy; and Sir Plus, the Superfluous.

We’re cats of the Round Table, we nap when e’er we’re able…

    What are these sweeties watching so intently?

    • ^o^ March 31, 2017 / 2:44 am

      Sir Pentine, the Wriggly

  2. Carlotta March 30, 2017 / 1:15 pm

    Let’s go there, it’s a fluffy place!

  3. kodalai March 30, 2017 / 1:18 pm

    Bravo!

    You’re always good Mike, but sometimes you’re just fabulous. πŸ™‚

    • ^o^ March 31, 2017 / 2:45 am

      That would be Sir Passes, the Excellent.

  4. Cheryl S. March 30, 2017 / 1:51 pm

    Darn near choked to death laughing at the text. Now I’ll go look at the picture.

  5. burvegas March 30, 2017 / 1:52 pm

    In this story I would be Sir Rostratus, the hazy.

    I kinda want to find out what happens next…well done, Mike!

    • allein ? March 30, 2017 / 1:58 pm

      That one took me a second. But only one.

      The inside of Mike’s head must be a fascinating place.

      • Julie March 30, 2017 / 2:33 pm

        That took me at least 3 reads. It wasn’t until other people started commenting that I got it.

      • Murray C. March 30, 2017 / 7:37 pm

        I have always thought so.

      • ^o^ March 31, 2017 / 2:49 am

        It is the Realm of Sir Endipity the Unexpected.

  6. N. Fritz March 30, 2017 / 2:13 pm

    Brilliant! and one of my favorite movies, to boot!

  7. Ms Can Opener March 30, 2017 / 2:23 pm

    I get all of the names except Sir Rostratus, the Hazy. Can someone explain that to me? Thanks

    • Julie March 30, 2017 / 2:31 pm

      Sir Rostratus is “Cirro Stratus” – a type of cloud.

      • Ms Can Opener March 30, 2017 / 9:09 pm

        Thank you, Julie and Emily. MCO

    BRING ME A SHRUBBERY !!

    Make sure it’s of the finest ‘Aged’ Nip variety please.

    β€œFirst you must find… another shrubbery! Then, when you have found the shrubbery, you must place it here, beside this shrubbery, only slightly higher so you get a two layer effect with a little path running down the middle. (“A path! A path!”) Then, you must cut down the mightiest tree in the forrest… with… a herring!”

    • ^o^ March 31, 2017 / 3:13 am

      Beware of Sir Comspect the Pious! Together with Sir Round the Circular and Sir Press the Weighty, they will imprison your compatriot Sir Reptitious the Stealthy, Inhaler of Aged Nip.

  9. Amy March 30, 2017 / 2:34 pm

    Which one is Sir Robin, the Brave? Or did he run away?

    • Doug March 30, 2017 / 2:38 pm

      I think I saw him running from Wabbit of Caerbannog ..

      After all .. It’s a terrible monster with “nasty, big, pointy teeth!”, so terrifying that Sir Robin soils his armour at the mere description, and it has “a vicious streak a mile wide!”

      NI !

    I think I know which kitty is Sir Cumference. :p

    • allein ? March 30, 2017 / 3:20 pm

      I assume Sir Rostratus The Hazy is one of the gray kitties…

    • Murray C. March 30, 2017 / 7:39 pm

      My husband’s family had a friend who had a castle in Scotland whom they called Sir Circumference, due, of course, to his ample girth. And the castle was called Chilblain Castle
      since it was always so cold there. His wife was thrilled when she reached menopause since it was the first time she’d been warm.

      • Jendeyan March 31, 2017 / 8:03 am

        Well, there’s a silver lining you wouldn’t normally expect.

      • Emsthemonster March 31, 2017 / 10:09 am

        I have never really thought into what menopause will bring. If I consider that the current 66f is getting too hot for me, I might need to start looking for a new home in Alaska or Siberia or wherever it is nice and cold before menopause hits. πŸ™
        Or even earlier because there will be 86-95F here in the summer.

  11. Skimpy March 30, 2017 / 3:22 pm

    ROLFL Mike!
    And thanks for adding “Hazy” and “Pudgy” to my vocabulary.

    • ^o^ March 31, 2017 / 2:51 am

      Pudgy would be the result of Sir Up the Sweet residing in the Shire of Mapleston.

      • Skimpy March 31, 2017 / 10:31 am

        πŸ™‚
        I get syrup (or do I?), but what is Mapleston?

        • ^o^ March 31, 2017 / 12:58 pm

          It’s where you find Maple Syrup.

            • Skimpy March 31, 2017 / 3:24 pm

              HΓ© hΓ© hΓ©!

          • Skimpy March 31, 2017 / 3:23 pm

            Thank you πŸ™‚

  12. Starfish March 30, 2017 / 6:23 pm

    There’s one missing! Whatever happened to Sir Vicibal the Useful?

    • Not That Mike The Other Mike March 30, 2017 / 6:48 pm

      During an unfortunate encounter with the Killer Rabbit, he… outlived his usefulness.

      • ^o^ March 31, 2017 / 2:53 am

        Although he was sent to Sir Gerry, unfortunately he did not Sir Vive.

  13. Patty March 30, 2017 / 7:33 pm

    The tuxedo is Sir Plus, the superfluous, since he is the one who doesn’t match any of the others.

  14. Smartypants March 30, 2017 / 8:58 pm

    The floofy one at back right (Sir Rostratus, the Hazy?) is a ringer for my long-ago cat Elsa. Sweetest expression!

  15. Alice Shortcake March 31, 2017 / 2:44 am

    If I owned these cats I’d never want to leave the house.

  16. ^o^ March 31, 2017 / 3:19 am

    Now it is time for me to call in my last knight, Sir Render, and bid you all sweet dreams.

  17. Emsthemonster March 31, 2017 / 9:51 am

    If Sir Plus is not needed as being superfluous, I will gladly take him and rename him Sir Puss as I don’t like if anyone feels superfluous.
