So…you’re saying I’m a cat?
I was thinking the same thing LOL!
Actually sleeping on your left side has many health benefits.

For NTMTOM:
This just made my day! Thank you for posting. How wonderful that these two greats collaborated.
I love the cello beehive! And this video!
Hope your day is better than yesterday.
Thanks, DebG! I’m happy to report that I was able to enjoy today’s more temperate weather and to catch up on much needed sleep after yesterday’s curse-worthy heat, time-wasting, and missed opportunities.
Very cool, but needs more bees.
And more cowbell.
That’s Awesome!👏🏼
Happy birthday 10th to Pippi Longstocking the bookstore cat!
BTW it’s also it’s Storm’s 4th birthday today!
Give her a big kiss from me!
Hippo birdie to Storm!
Happy birthday Storm!
Light fixture cat will have me giggling all day.
Love love love the story about the bookstore kitty’s birthday party. That owner was so clever, getting kids involved in writing, drawing, and hunting for Pippi pictures. Anything that encourages kids to love books is a gift to those children.
That is the best story! And they had a book contest for kids to write about Pippi💙 This just makes me smile and feel happy—books and kids and cats!👍🏼
I wonder if the cat would have fallen from the light fixture if the humans hadn’t shrieked.
At first I thought that was the cats noise!
What was that dangling thing? It looked like a chandelier but I don’t see any lights on it.
also, they should’ve moved the (kitty) couch below for the landing.
Love, love, love the calculating cat! One of my boys is an aerialist…..and once or twice I’ve had to catch him as he loses his balance on the high beams in the kitchen. I often wonder how many times he has fallen when I was not there to catch him–does he only go up there when I am home, to watch me from above?
(need to upload a video of the aerialist at play….)
yes please
Light fixture cat – I won’t show it to my Cicero, she makes enough trouble even without new ideas from other cats.
Yesterday she was outside while I was working from home. I was on a Teams meeting when I heard her very special meows that mean “I have caught something for you, come and praise me”. As it was my turn to speak on Teams, my coworkers would have noticed if I had been gone, Cicero had to wait for her praise.
She is not known for her patience, so she jumped up to the window of my office happily flaunting the freshly caught, still bleeding rat, smearing blood over the window, the windowsill…. The little rascal. Guess who had to clean up after the proudest little hunter 🙁
Uh, at least she didn’t jump on your laptop and splash blood and viscera all over the keyboard and camera.
Imagine the phone call with HR afterwards.
Yes that would have been awkward!
phone call with HR! 🤣🤣
Pittie Joan and her loving Abel are just beautiful together. What a sweet relationship.
