Empty

Posted on September 28, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

The crackly fire you built is just lovely, Human Daddy, and I have no objection to the evening’s TV selection.

A large black and white hound sits upright between a white fireplace with a crackly fire and a dark wooden coffee table. Off to the right, there is a scene of an people in a city playing on a TV. The dog is not watching the TV and his back is to the fire. All his attention is focused on the white plate containing a slice of quiche on the table, and the man in a grey tee shirt, mostly out of frame, who is eating from it.

But it is really hard to enjoy the atmosphere and entertainment when my tummy is absolutely EMPTY!

Not Tomatoes

Posted on September 27, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

No, I don’t want tomatoes.

A magnificent, glossy black house panther stands on his back paws and stretches with all his might towards a kitchen counter. Someone is in the midst of cooking and ingredients are strewn all about, such as a white chopping block with diced tomatoes. Of more interest to the cat, there is a purple Temptations container to the back of the counter.

Use your noggin, Human Mommy!

Don’t be scared…

Posted on September 26, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

Uh-oh…. The Biggest, Baddest, Blackest and Whitest, SCARIEST, Boss Meowie has installed himself on the Sleeping Cloud right behind me.

A small yellow dog lays on a large, fluffy grey dog bed. Behind him, there is a somewhat blurry black and white form with an impossibly long black tail with a white tip. The dog has his ears pricked and his brow is furrowed. His brown eyes are full of worry.

Don’t be scared, Sunny. You are the least objectionable Woofie due to your obsequiousness.

The mysterious black and white has stopped moving and has installed itself adjacent to the yellow dog’s hindquarters, with its magnificent tail still extended. It is a tuxedo cat and is actually quite a bit smaller than the dog. The dog is looking at the cat and appears less worried now.

In fact, I’ve become rather fond of you.

Cuter

Posted on September 24, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

Sometimes, I ponder things, like whether I could become even cuter.

An adorable black dog with caramel markings rests her muzzle on a human’s lap. Her cute pointy ears are back and she appears to be deep in thought.

I don’t think so, but maybe I should try to develop my cuteness even further.

Camouflage

Posted on September 23, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

My head, whiskers, and pointy ears are completely covered by the branches of the evergreen, my paws are tucked, and my tail is tightly wound.

A small, grey and white cat sits under a small pine tree. Her grey, stripy tail is tightly curled around her paws and her head is totally covered by the tree branches.

There is nothing to distinguish me from a harmless stone and therefore nothing to discourage plump, playful Birdies from perching on me or on branches in my vicinity.

Let us help

Posted on September 22, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

Human Daddy, you appear to have left your quiche crust. You know that Human Mommy may take this as a criticism of her quiche-making skills.

A small plate containing a fork, a knife, and a sliver of uneaten quiche crust atop a dark brown, live edge coffee table. A human sits back on a couch, partially out of frame—only his grey pants legs are visible. To the left, a little golden dog sits under the table with brown, pleading eyes fixed on the human. To the right, a large white and black hound sits next to the table. His eyes are just as brown and just as pleading as the little guy’s. In addition, he has placed an enormous white front paw on his human’s knee.

Please, let us help.

Remove it NOW!

Posted on September 21, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

It’s getting so chilly that the Humans tried out the furnace this morning…

A large dilute tortoiseshell cat and a smaller tortoiseshell cat perch close to a window with an AC window unit in it. The smaller tortie has her back to the person, but the larger tortie is absolutely glaring. She wants the AC out now!

…yet there is still an AC obstructing our Birdie TV.

Remove it NOW!

Napping Couple

Posted on September 20, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

Sure, naps with Meowie Nap Buddies are lovely in a platonic sort of way…

Two dogs snuggle on a large grey dog bed.

…but nothing beats a nap session with my main squeeze Stella, especially when she snuggles her gorgeous muzzle against my tail area.

Nap Buddies

Posted on September 20, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

Lily’s the chillest Meowie and I’m the chillest Doggo*…

A little golden dog and a large dilute tortoiseshell cat nap together on a large, fuzzy dog bed.

…so it makes sense that we’re nap buddies.

—Sunny

*Except for during thunderstorms. Then I am not chill at all.

Guard Dogs

Posted on September 18, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

Xena sometimes complains about performing her Guard Dog duties solo, but she’s never really alone.

Two dogs sit on a white, wooden window seat built into a bay window. The dog to the left is an impressive, huge black and white hound. He lays on his belly with all of his paws tucked, except for a white socked front leg that he extends casually. To his right, there is a little black dog with caramel accents, pointy ears, and an adorably curled tail, not even a fourth of the big guy’s size. Both dogs are alert, looking out the bay window. The little one stands on her back paws and balances herself so that she can see. There green houseplants with draping vines hanging above the dogs and outside it is green and leafy, too.

I always keep an eye on her and am ready to deploy as backup at a moment’s notice.
