it’s a mostly ginger caturday


Luke loves to lie in the topmost crows nest in the cat tree and watch the rest of the cats roam around the house. Then when he sees an opportunity to raise a little ruckus he leaps down and heads out. And when I say leap down, he drops effortlessly a good six feet and doesn’t miss a beat.


And then there’s his litter brother Beau, who loves to roll around asking for attention and scritches around his ears. A lot of times he likes to be held, until he decides he’s had enough, then it’s down and off to explore something else.


Finally there’s sweet, coy Danï. She and her litter sister love to nap on the big bed with the soft fiber cover. They both nap next to each other. In this case her sister decided to go see if she was missing anything.

if i fits, i sits

I “gave” all the cats a Christmas present of cardboard covers on top of the wet food I purchase for my two dogs from Chewy. Chewy sends out the 12-can cases covered with a special cardboard cover to better protect them in shipment. I dropped four of the cardboard tops on the kitchen floor for all to play with. Luke decided to try this one out, with his brother Bo checking out what Luke was doing.

Sometimes Luke tries different ways to fit into the box. In this case, he’s just a bit too chonky to fit in, pushing out the sides.

I decided to go black and white because color wouldn’t help tell the story any better, and there are times I like black and white photography.
