Caturday is For Snugglers

Caturday is For Snugglers

I emailed this to Tina, thinking she might like it for her blog posts "The Caturday Report".
It was on 'The Daily What', part of the family of  Cheezburger websites. It makes me think of that sweet video on You Tube of the momma kitty hugging her kitten.

What is Making Me Laugh Today

Get Fuzzy  - February 24 2013

The Flying McCoys - February 24 2013

It seems like there were some other cartoons that really made me laugh this week, but I apparently did not download them. Enjoy!

This 'n That

Just a quick post of this cool GIF I found on Cheezburger.
Nothing too exciting going on with me. I spent all last Sunday evening watching the last two episodes of Downton Abbey. I knew about the spoiler alert that Matthew was going to be killed off, I just didn't know how. It was still sad. I've really enjoyed this series, but I honestly think that probably the next season should be it's last.
The water department installed the new water meter for the house yesterday. They tore up the grass in the front strip in the process - really ticked me off. We had a downpour yesterday and the big truck they must have used left two big ruts. Their muddy track prints were all up on the sidewalk. That's going to be loads of fun to mow from now on. I felt like taking pictures and writing a letter to the city, but I know they wouldn't do anything about it.

Princess Bride Meets StarWars

This was on one of the Cheezburger websites today - I loved it! I want to start a movement to create a Princess Bride day, kind of like the Talk Like a Pirate Day, more on that in the future....

Today's Funny

This was on Fail Blog today. Great spoof of Todd Akin and his mind boggling comments on "legitimate rape".

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!

Wishing everyone a Happy Valentine's - from me and the cats!

Happy Chinese New Year!

Today started out really foggy, but cleared off and the sun came out for a very nice afternoon.

Not too long after I got home from going out for groceries and the Sunday paper, I heard some bouncing around on the front porch. And here was Munchkin with one of the black squirrels.

Woody

Tom Cat

They seem to be figuring out that my cats are not going to hurt them; I just hope they don't assume that about other cats in the neighborhood that might.










He is so cute with them, and they were scurrying past me too without too much fear. I guess food really is a big motivator. Works for me!













Woody relaxing in my lap. When he was younger he would rarely sit on my lap, now he wants to curl up there all the time. It's only a problem when I have to get up to let Tom Cat in...

A Bird Ballet

I saw this video earlier this week on one of the Cheezburger sites. It is originally posted on the website Vimeo, and is extremely cool, so I hope you enjoy it.

Cure for H.I.P.S.T.E.R.

I was on the Cheezburger website 'The Daily What" and saw this video last night. I thought it was hilarious. OMG, it is so on the money!

 

This Should Be Everywhere

This ad was snapped, and posted on the I Can Has Cheezburger site. Oh to live in a world that this is taught to all boys to men, every day, everywhere.

Typical Cat

A cat owner knows how true this really is.

Pauline

Pauline - January 2011

Pauline - January 2011

I had a very sad start to my week; on Monday morning I took Pauline to the vet after she was sick all weekend with a stomach bug. It left her in such bad shape that between myself and the vet, we knew that putting her to sleep was the most humane thing to do at this stage of her life.





She was my brother Mark's cat, and I adopted her soon after he passed away, right before Christmas of 2010. I was grateful to have two years with her, and she learned to settle in with my existing feline family, with a few kinks in the road here and there.

In the last few years I have really come to understand the joy I get from my feline family. It really does make me feel good, to make them feel good. I can't tell you how many nights I was lulled to sleep with Pauline purring away on the pillow next to me. I've told my friend Geri many times that I would probably be crazy if I didn't have my cats to keep me company. I have lived alone for so long, that I would be way nuttier than I am if I didn't have them to love.

She led a pretty good life for most of her time, but old age was taking it's toll the last year. She still had the will to live, but her body was not able to sustain that.

Here she is from better days.
