When

Posted on August 28, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

I’m wondering, Sunny, when this oppressively hot summer will be over.

A medium-sized yellow dog sits next to a huge black and white hound on a window seat in a big bay window.  The yellow dogs folded triangular ears are perked, while the great, big hound dangles his magnificent white paws over the edge of the seat.

I’m wondering that, too, Cosmo, but my more immediate concern is when dinner will be.

Sunday Night

Posted on August 28, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

I see you are sad that tomorrow is Monday, Human Mommy.

A large, stripy dilute tortoiseshell cat lounges on her back with her white, wonderfully strokable tummy exposed.

It is unfortunate that you do not share my Feline insouciance regarding the days of the week.

Lap Time

Posted on August 26, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

The Meowies seem to get an inordinate amount of lap time compared to us Doggoes.

A large, stripy, dilute tortoiseshell cat sits on a human’s lap.  In the background, there is a huge, black and white hound splayed out on the hardwood floor.  He is looking wistfully at the cat, wishing that he, too, could be enjoying some lap time.

We probably should’ve read the fine print on the lap reservation app the Meowies set up.

Bed

Posted on August 26, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

The Humans got us a new bed.

A large black and white hound with white paws luxuriates on his side in a square shaped, grey dog bed with fluffy lining.

There’s no better way to start the weekend than with a Friday night snooze in a brand new bed!

Cat Tree

Posted on August 24, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

Oh, look!

A handsome ginger and white cat is curled in a shallow grey and white basket attached by rope to tree branches in a living room.

A tree with attached napping baskets has appeared in my living room.

The same cat in the same basket.  The photographer has backed up, revealing that the branches are part of an elaborate cat tree, befitting a Lion king.

The Lion King approves.

Lucky

Posted on August 23, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

Not to brag, but I’m curled up on the most comfortable Sleeping Cloud, next to the most gorgeous girl, and there are no thunderstorms predicted in the weather forecast.

A medium-sized golden colored dog is stretched out behind a much larger black dog on a round, fluffy dog bed.  The two dogs are laying in opposite directions so that the little guy’s head is next to the girl’s hindquarters and vice versa.  The little golden guy has a great, big smile.

Yup, I’m the luckiest guy in the world.

Pour moi?

Posted on August 22, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

Human Daddy is building me something. It must be a much larger version of the Winter Palace I frequent a few palaces down.

A large black and white tuxedo cat sprawls on an outdoor deck and watches as his Human Daddy constructs something down below.  There is a wooden floor in place already and the human has placed a half inch high high metal frame 6 inches or so in from the edge of the floor.

It’s too early to make a decision, of course, but Miss Debby may have some competition this year.

Repose

Posted on August 21, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

The Ornithologist is at repose…

A grey and white cat lays on her left side on some mulch and sparse green ground cover beside a brown fence.  Her eyes are mostly closed and sunshine streams upon her between the shadows of the fence pickets.  It looks like a nice spot for an outdoor nap.

…yet she is fully capable of bestirring herself should a comely Birdie arrive and demand inclusion in her life list.

Subsumed

Posted on August 20, 2023August 20, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

Ever wake up from a midafternoon nap only to realize that you’re being subsumed by a massive black hole?

Never. Really?

A small golden dog lays on his belly between a large black house panther to his left and a large black dog to his right on a dark brown rattan outdoor sofa.  The house panther and the large black dog appear to be sleeping, but the small golden dog’s brown eyes are open and he is looking up to the left in concern.  His afternoon plans may be disrupted by his subsumption into the furry, black void.

It seems to happen to me on the regular.

Full Contingent

Posted on August 19, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

As fearsome Guard Dogs, any one of us can protect the homestead adequately.

A pack of four dogs stands and sits on a window seat in a bay window.

Still, for special events, such as mail delivery or the arrival of visitors, we like to have the full contingent on duty.

—Xena, et. al.
