Weekend Open Thread

For today’s open thread, reader Georgiana Y. shares these photos of her special neighbors:

Hello everyone, I thought you would enjoy meeting the stray cats I feed. First here is one of the kittens, unfortunately it’s not great because it’s very skittish.

Then there is this tuxedo cat, I don’t know if it’s a boy or a girl.

And then there is this orange fellow who is definitely a boy, I saw the proof.

Weekend Open Thread

Yay, it’s Caturday! Today’s visitor is Jacques, displaying typical cat behavior and giving reader Tara O. the chance to make the best joke ever:

Attached is Jacques-in-a-box. I was cleaning up my jewelry and ran out of places to put boxes. Once they were on the bed they were fair game.

Cat sits among an array of small jewelry boxes spread out on the bed. The cat is trying to put its paws in one of the boxes.
I can fit, I swear!

And Jacques would also like to remind everyone to stay hydrated in the heat. Especially if mommy’s bedside water is available. Much better than cat bowl water.
