Inconvenience

Posted on May 4, 2024 by sevencatsandcounting

Sometimes Human Mommy works a bit on the weekends.

A little grey and white cat sits in loaf position in a cat basket.  Her head is tucked into the side of the basket and her ears are folded back in annoyance.

This is, of course, a major inconvenience, as her percussive typing disrupts my naps.

Stop it, Human Mommy. Stop it now!

Workout

Posted on May 4, 2024 by sevencatsandcounting

Lying adjacent to the weights is basically a workout.

A large dilute tortoiseshell cat lays on her back with her white belly exposed next to some small handheld weights.

I’m feeling fitter every minute.

Admiration

Posted on May 2, 2024 by sevencatsandcounting

I love looking at Human Mommy and she loves looking at me.

A little yellow dog lays next to a woman in a white dress on a green couch.

We are our own mutual admiration society.

Stone

Posted on May 1, 2024 by sevencatsandcounting

Who says that small, unobtrusive, totally non-threatening stones can’t adorn a fence, Birdie Friends?

A little gray and white cat sits atop a brown wooden fence in a verdant garden.  One could almost mistake the cat for a gray stone, except for the fact that it’s unusual to see a stone atop a wooden fence and stones usually don’t have fur, whiskers, and pointy ears.

I personally think that such a stone would make for an absolutely delightful perch.

Tuck In

Posted on April 30, 2024 by sevencatsandcounting

I don’t always need a blanket…

A little black dog curls up cozily under a fluffy pink throw blanket and rests her head on a pillow decorated with embroidered dogs.

…but when I do, I prefer a pink, fluffy one befitting a Princess.

Chair

Posted on April 29, 2024 by sevencatsandcounting

Human Mommy is planning to sit in this new office chair.

A pretty, petite shorthair tortoiseshell cat sits curled on a blue office chair.

As her Cat Manager, it’s my job to dissuade her from this course of action.

Glamour

Posted on April 28, 2024 by sevencatsandcounting

Either you’ve got it or you don’t.

A dilute tortoiseshell cat lounges glamorously on a wooden cat shelf beneath an open window.  Her tail is insouciantly draped, one of her back legs extends balletically, and a semi sheer white curtain falls gracefully over her flank.

It’s obvious which category I fall into.

Dinner

Posted on April 27, 2024 by sevencatsandcounting

I know I’m getting homemade chicken and rice for dinner because I smell it and because I watched Human Daddy make it.

Human Daddy won’t let me dig in, though, until it cools down.

A big black and white hound lounges on a window seat and looks morosely at the camera.  Something is wrong, probably involving the emptiness of his tummy combined with the delicious smell of chicken.

Human Daddy can be overprotective.

Annoying

Posted on April 26, 2024 by sevencatsandcounting

You are annoying me, Human Mommy.

A pretty grey and white tabby cat sits in loaf position on a wooden platform built around the base of a small tree.  Her ears are held back in annoyance and an impressive glare emanates from her yellow eyes.

The fact that you have no idea why you are annoying me exacerbates my annoyance.

Toll

Posted on April 25, 2024 by sevencatsandcounting

It doesn’t matter if you’re on Guard Cat duty, Finn.

A handsome ginger and white cat tries to climb the outdoor stone steps at the entry of a house, but his path is blocked by two other cats, a grey tabby and a dilute tortoiseshell, installed on the upper steps.

You are not allowed to come up the stairs without paying the Stair Toll.

That’s the rule.

—Luna and Lily
