Happy Caturday, and welcome to the open thread. Today’s visitors, from reader Sowmya D., are quite catty:
Ekaterina Velikaya (L) and Nikolai Devinovich (R) interrupt their usual Winter Whap Fight to talk smack about the husky across the street. Dexter the Toy Dragon declines to participate in the gossip.
When Hana misses Maru, she howls with such longing that Maru is moved to respond immediat — oh, who am I kidding, he just lies there and makes her look for him.
But enough domestic drama, it’s time for Maru, Hana and Kitten Miri to get a manicure, which they endure with a Zen-like calm.
Sooooo relaxing, Andrew Y.
Maru gets Musical!Open thread time! For today’s Caturday open thread, reader Georgiana Y. shares a photo of Storm in a box that’s a perfect fit — maybe too perfect. “Storm didn’t stay in the box for long,” she notes. “I think she was worried I’d mail her to Abu Dahbi.”
After a rummage through the attic, Maru is reunited with a cherished childhood toy: the CatLauncher 3000, which would catapult him across the room. Broken now, it’s still a great place for a nap.
As long as we’re reliving Maru’s childhood, let’s watch one-year-old Maru getting very emotional over a toy.

More Maru!
