Maru in the Middle

Its rub-a-dub-dub, three cats in three tubs — but there’s no room for any water, especially in Maru’s. After some outdoor time, Maru enjoys a brushing and gives us a 360-degree view of his overall awesomeness. (via Andrew Y.)

Weekend Open Thread

Welcome to the weekend! For today’s Caturday open thread, reader AB shares two adorable cats, a one-of-a-kind quilt, and some sage advice.

Over 27 years ago, my husband’s grandmother made us this beautiful quilt for our wedding. I was afraid to use it as bedding because I didn’t want to risk damaging it, but I’ve finally realized that even precious things are meant to be used and enjoyed. Dark Phoenix and Methredhel are making the most of it, as they should!

Welcome to the Caturday chat room, where all visitors are welcome. Well, almost all. Reader Tracy R. shares this photo of her cat Hamster ignoring an unwelcome guest: “My son’s dog, Fika, came to visit Hamster. It was not a love match.”
