Oh to be a cat

Mr. Garlic kicking it by the Christmas tree. Has only tried to eat the tree twice so far - a great improvement from the past 3 years

Recently adopted by our old beighbors outdoor cats.

This first shot is Fiona. She was mother's kitty. When mother went to the ancestors Fiona lived with us until she too went to the ancestors.

Then there is Ginger, another long past kitty. She was a very photogenic cat. She had a bit of a catatude, but some of my best cat shots came from her. Here she is sizing up a Christmas tree ornament.

EDIT: What the heck, I know I have posted this last photo of Ginger before but I love this shot.

EDIT: Can't help myself Ginger ordering online

You take nice pictures

They both looked so SERIOUS . Were they related by any chance? Idk why but their faces look very similar to me, except the colours obviously.

Nope no relation

Yesterday Simba kind of saved an endler . I was in the kitchen and noticed him curiously inspecting and touching someting on the ground right next to the tank. I go to look and it's an endler male - I put them to that tank from quarantine a few hours earlier, so they were a bit spooked. I carefully picked it up, put it back to the tank, and it seems that it's completely uninjured, neither by its jump or our handling . Since it fell right next to the tank stand, chances are I wouldn't have noticed it in time and it would have dried up.

Oooh Hobbes. Loki is very stinky today lol

 

[Demeter]

And again, a series of shots. BB will try anything, he likes marshmallows.


We have another cat, she used to be the neighbor’s but they basically renounced owner ship (despite coming to claim her once). That was when she was young, basically still a kitten. Now she’s the resident basket keeper.

 

[mulletmcnasty]

After his many, many hours of studying my fish, the cat decided that he could do a better job regulating the C02 than the actual regulator, in his sleep.

My kittens skunk and podunk! Podunk’s investigating the new tree, and skunk loves the new rug. He also recently started sitting in my old cat’s favorite spot who passed away this year, behind the wood stove. Fixed it up and added a bed when we got them in august, now he’s finally using it!

 

[BPSabelhaus]

We still fits ish lol

The hammock frame is permanently bent down now lol



The snozzberries taste like snozzberries... He's a bit tipsy post neuter lol Nibbler goes in next week.

 

[Demeter]

Was cutting styrofoam liners to insulate a couple shipments of BN plecos. BB was trying to help by clawing the inside corners.

And Simba is similarly "helping" to change the sheets. He cocooned himself in while I was undoing the zipper.

 

[BPSabelhaus]

Resting after yesterday's neuter.

Apparently he wins at about 5x the size whatever tube they do the thing to than his brother Hobbes lol

I understand all the words in this sentence but none of the sentence itself

 

[BPSabelhaus]

Apparently he had a very large scrotal tube compared to his brother. Like an "oh my" moment when they made the skin incision and popped the tube out. Just one of those that is without a doubt a boy moments lol

OK I assume that "scrotal tube" is a euphemism because I studied zoology and I'm pretty sure there's no such organ .

Trying to avoid angering the swear filter and keep it PG lol

Don't worry. Moos isn't dead, but just trying to cook herself on the warm bathroomfloor .

Mine loves relaxing in the shower as well.

 

[BPSabelhaus]

That's why my lime tree is dying. He's lucky I just cloned it.

 

[BPSabelhaus]

I think he's trying to make up. He's been waking us up each morning by snuggling up next to our faces and purring just before the alarm goes off. Then he proceeds to lick our faces then curl back up and purr

"Oh come on Nibbler"

"Seriously?"



"Finally"

He looks all grown up now!

 

[BPSabelhaus]

Getting big for sure. Kiddo is arguing that Nibbler (bigger of the two) isn't a cat now lol We agreed to kitty cat for now lol

 

[Demeter]

Not sure why but my cat has been especially clingy as of late. This is about as close as BB gets to sitting on my lap. I guess I trained him not to be a lap cat by making him sleep in a laundry hamper as a kitten.

[Demeter]

Today’s series of shots features BB begging for fried eggs. He did not get any and settled for the arm of the chair.

 

[BPSabelhaus]

Hobbes knocked a toy under the stove. Pull out the storage drawer and found most of their toys lol
Since when does the stork deliver full grown cats?

 

[BPSabelhaus]

Can I just take a quick pic of the dragon being adorable? No? Ok then lol His brother tried as soon as I took the pic lol Had to give him the hip shuffle as I grabbed Hobbes with my free hand lol
I'm more concerned about them knocking over a decoration or burning themselves in a lamp than harming Alex. She's known them since they were six weeks old and they just see her as a weird cat we also pick up and love on lol

Nibbler has had me up since 3:30. Took until 5:30 to figure out he wanted to watch MTV.

 

[86 ssinit]

lol next he’s going to be asking for hot pockets!!

 

[mulletmcnasty]

Mine wakes me at roughly 3-4am every morning, for food.
Luckily, I can usually get back to sleep.

 

[BPSabelhaus]

I will say the YouTube channel 3D Games for Cats was very interesting to them. I might use an old computer to let them do it unattended. I'd imagine they could get a bit too into it and knock a TV over lol. But I have a cracked monitor that still displays fine I wouldn't mind them knocking about. Maybe just put some shipping tape over the screen just in case.

 

[BPSabelhaus]

Cat it senses series from Pet Supplies Plus. $20 or so IIRC. They have been playing with it for hours changing the shape on occasion.

They didn't wake us overnight with bored mewing lol

 

[BPSabelhaus]

Most interesting thing ever lol Thinking about mounting a cat climbing wall on her enclosure.

 

[BPSabelhaus]

Kiddos cat Rainey curled up in his sleeping bag. He's off at an indoor water park resort with the wife overnight. He has blankets but also Autism and just likes his sleeping bag lol

 

[BPSabelhaus]

Finally figured out Hobbes breed. He's clearly a Dali cat lol Love his tail. Especially when he's in a purring mood and the tip starts moving like a finger. So cute.

 

[mulletmcnasty]

He was tired, so went to bed early .

 

[BPSabelhaus]

I am mighty! Hear me yawn!

 

[BPSabelhaus]

Just watching a cat drink is fascinating and beautiful.

 

[BPSabelhaus]

Just trying to grab new sheets for the kiddo, d'ya mind?

 

[BPSabelhaus]

Started a couple cat grass and mint gardens for Nibbler. Constantly chews my plants. Started them last week, let them have a little nibble on the biggest one to trim it a bit

 

[mulletmcnasty]

I didn't know mint was okay for a cat. Now I do.

 

[BPSabelhaus]

Catnip is a member of the mint family. The neighborhood cats chew my bee balm and catnip, but don't seem to touch the mountain mint and they definitely avoid the nettles (also a mint). The grass was a mix of barley, rye and oat IIRC.

 

[BPSabelhaus]

Brought one out again. As soon as Nibbler saw / smelled it he was following me basically on his back legs hopping to try and get it lol Might go grab a couple spare packs of seeds while they still have them in case I need to plant again in the fall / winter. Wasn't sure 100% how he would react to it, but since it's very positive I'll probably look into setting up a couple larger pots I can have on the floor in a corner or something.

 

[BPSabelhaus]

Had a nice exploration of the yard today. Dragged me into the salmonberries lol Thankfully they don't have a lot of spikes like most rubus.
