House rabbit Fuku indulges his digging instinct for a while, then it’s off for snacks and a happy flop. Just a typical Bunday morning.

Eager to hear the roar of the adoring crowd, Maru persuades Hana and Kitten Miri to form The Flying Marendus, the first all-feline trapeze act. Looks like it needs work.

Weekend Open Thread

Welcome to the weekend! Joining us this Caturday is Julius, lurking in his most favorite place, according to reader Susan H.:

The face of an orange striped cat hides among beautiful green leaves in a garden.
Well, hello there.

He loves to play in the landscaping plants, and he doesn’t have an “off” switch- he just keeps going until he’s panting. It makes for some great expressions!

And Now, An Ode to Grass

Oh verdant blades that rise in air / Green and tall beyond compare
After my meal of fish and kibble / Upon your tender leaves I’ll nibble
And then, my hunger thusly sated / Prepare to do that which I’m fated
I’ll creep indoors, quiet as a mouse / And hack up a hairball in the house
