It’s Caturday, and we’re expecting a special delivery today: a big box of void. You wouldn’t expect a box of void to weigh so much, but apparently it’s pretty heavy, so we might need everyone to help lift it.

a black cat peeks out of a hole in a cardboard carton. A label on the box reads "Caution Heavy Object Team Lift Required" in English and Spanish.
I’m not heavy, I’m just fluffy!

Welcome to the weekend! Today’s guests are two cats who reader Tara O. had the pleasure to meet.

I was cat-sitting last week and took these two photos. Gingko the grey one was very sulky and wouldn’t come for food a few days.

A cat with gray fur and a very round face lies on a table and looks at you.
Normally, I don’t miss meals, but…

And Pacino was super sweet, but apparently expressed his displeasure at being left along to his mommy by peeing on her pillow the morning she returned.

A tuxedo cat with black and white fur stands on the floor and looks up at you. One of the cat's ears has been clipped to indicate neutering.
Actually, I never forgave her for the ear thing.

Bonus Bee!

Reader Elizabeth G. humbly proposes that bees are cute and submits this photo as evidence. “I mean, look how fuzzy he is.”
