Let sleeping cats lie…..

I must say that sleeping humans are not that cute (with the exception perhaps of baby humans.)  They are twisted and have messy unmanageable hair and bed-clothes and sometimes thrash around.  Indeed humans do not wish to be seen sleeping, nor to be seen waking up… Continue Reading “Let sleeping cats lie…..”

Notes on Tolerance from Tiger and Benji

More nose to nose.  Less rebuke and hissing. More close encounters of the peaceful kind. Less misunderstanding the intentions of the other. No, I’m not talking about the country (though that would be good too.)  I’m talking about Tiger the resident tabby and his new… Continue Reading “Notes on Tolerance from Tiger and Benji”

Still Tiger, with most favored feline status

Six months and 50 posts ~ but who’s counting?

Well I guess I am.  Counting that is.  I was an accountant after all, a long time ago in a galaxy, far, far away.  Now, enough of the numbers. The main reason I started this blog was to encourage myself to write and to have a fun place… Continue Reading “Six months and 50 posts ~ but who’s counting?”

To Benji ~ from the Tiger

Tiger here.  Solidarity, that’s what I’m talkin’ about little brother.  These sniffles are for you (maybe even from you.)  I bear them for your sake like the soldier that I am.  I know what it’s like to be the new cat on the block. … Continue Reading “To Benji ~ from the Tiger”

A Tale of Two Kitties ~ the waiting continues
