Wise cats help you be more like them

Weekend

Posted on September 10, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

If you don’t spend some of your weekend as a loaf…

A stripy, dilute tortoiseshell cat sits on a blue patterned carpet in classic loaf position.  Her paws and tail are completely hidden.  If it weren’t for her pretty kitty face, whiskers, and pointy ears, she’d be completely indistinguishable from a loaf of bread.

…you are not doing it right.

Rank

Empresses outrank queens. This is a well known fact.

A petite tortoiseshell lounges upon a cat sized wooden window seat in a home office.  She looks to the right, where we see a larger dilute tortoiseshell cat with white paws, belly, and chest snoozing atop a printer.

This is why the Tortie Empress lounges upon the superior window seat while the Tiger Queen is relegated to the much inferior printer for her afternoon snooze.

Happiness

Posted on September 8, 2023September 8, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

I’m happy that my Human brought me City Barbecue…

A large white shorthair cat with black accents on his ears and head sits in Egyptian pose on a beige counter top next to a brown paper bag labeled City Barbecue.

…but I’ll be absolutely ecstatic once she dispenses the brisket from the bag.

Thermostat

Posted on September 7, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

Human Mommy, it’s still way too hot!

A magnificent black and white hound dog lounges on a window seat in a bay window.  It is sunny outside and presumably very, very hot.  The hound looks plaintively at the person taking the photo.  Can’t she do something about the temperature?

Can’t you please turn down the outdoor thermostat?

Too Hot

Posted on September 6, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

If it weren’t so hot, I’d be perched in a outdoor tree, waiting for a plump, playful Birdie to fly by.

A handsome ginger cat sits in a basket attached to a cat tree constructed of real branches.

Fortunately, Human Daddy created this indoor tree for me.

Now, if only he’d supply me with some indoor Birdies, too…

Hot

Posted on September 5, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

You know it’s hot when the Sun Worshipping Felines melt inside…

A large dilute tortoiseshell cat lays on her right side, fully extended, on a wooden, cat-sized widow perch.

…despite the AC running on max.

Labor Day

Posted on September 4, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

I thought Labor Day was the end of summer.

So how do you explain the temperatures in the high 90s with a heat index of 100?

A large black and white hound lays on a wooden floor next to a black pedestal fan.

Or the fact that your beloved Hound is melting?

Procrastinator

Posted on September 4, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

Human Mommy is the worst procrastinator.

She waited until this late hour to post our blog.

A handsome black house panther crouches atop a small red boulder in a verdant front yard.  Despite the lovely setting, he looks supremely peeved and levels a penetrating yellow gaze at the human who displeased him.

Worse, she has done nothing to prepare for my all important 2023 Official Halloween Portrait.

I am distraught and annoyed in equal measure.

Picked up

Posted on September 2, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

To be honest, I don’t love getting picked up.

A man in a black tee shirt and black baseball cap with a detailed tattoo sleeve running down his right arm holds a petite, glossy tortoiseshell cat in his arms and stares at her adoringly.

But I do love making Lily, Luna, Stella, and Xena feel jealous because I’m in Human Daddy’s arms and they aren’t.

Friday

Posted on September 1, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

TDIF, Humans! I’ve worked extra hard at being a good Doggo all week long.

A large black and white hound with floppy ears lounges on a rattan couch and stares soulfully at the camera.  He wants something, probably ear skritches and bully bites.

I definitely deserve some extra ear skritches and some celebratory bully bites.
