Unconscionable

Posted on July 13, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

It is unconscionable that the Lion King is confined indoors…

A handsome ginger cat with a white chest and limbs sits sullenly atop a white entry table in Egyptian pose.  He is staring longingly at the front door.  He doesn’t understand why his Humans haven’t opened it yet.

…when he should be gamboling and gallivanting outside, as is his right, on this delightfully hot, steamy summer evening.

Whatcha’ looking at?

Posted on July 12, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

Whatcha’ looking at, Human Mommy?

The cutest black and caramel little dog lays on a couch with her pointy ears pricked and her big brown eyes inquisitive.  Could she be any cuter?  No, we don’t think she could.

Oh, right, ME!!

‘Cause I’m just the cutest.

Chill

Posted on July 12, 2023July 12, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

I’m trying to chill but it’s hard to chill when you’re wondering what dinner will be, when it will be…

A medium black dog, a black house panther, and a large black and white dog lounge on a rattan couch on a screened porch.  The medium dog and the cat look like they are enjoying themselves, whereas the big guy looks like he’s trying to chill but has something else on his mind.  The thing on his mind is dinner.

…and if any tasty snacks will be provided in the interim to tide you over.

The Shop Cat

Posted on July 10, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

Excuse you!

I’m not a Shop Cat. I’m THE Shop Cat…

A gorgeous tuxedo cat with bright white downward curled whiskers lounges atop a quilted tarp in a garage.  There is a car on a lift behind her, along with a bright orange ladder.  She is staring at the camera as if she has just been insulted.  Say you’re sorry, even if you don’t know what you did.

…in addition to being the QUEEN.

For the Cat of it

Posted on July 9, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

We Stair Toll Collectors sometimes decline to collect the toll…

A small but officious tortie sits curled on a wooden stair step.  It’s clear that no one is allowed to go up or down.

…and just block access to the stairs for the Cat of it.

New Spot

Posted on July 8, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

No one ever uses the smallest Cat Tree in the penthouse.

A large, glossy black cat loafs atop the middle shelf of a small cat tree in a home office.

I’m finding it provides a satisfactory perch for brooding.

Inconvenience

Posted on July 7, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

I was enjoying a balmy breeze from the open window when Human Mommy closed the window and turned the AC on high, thus disrupting my liquefaction process.

A large, stripy dilute tortie is lounging on a cat-sized wooden window seat.  She is glaring over her shoulder in annoyance.

I am peeved. This is most inconvenient.

Sayings

Posted on July 7, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

Humans have some nonsensical sayings like “you snooze, you lose.”

A pretty tortie cat sleeps on her side on a fluffy, grey dog bed, a.k.a the sleeping cloud.  Her back legs are straight and her front paws are curled daintily.  Beside her forehead is a much loved stuffed fish toy.

I have never lost anything through snoozing, not even control of the ‘Nip filled trout.

Changing States

Posted on July 6, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

Due to the extreme heat, the magnificent House Panther is about to melt.

A magnificent, glossy house panther lounges upon a red boulder.  The panther and his boulder are surrounded by a verdant green garden.  Despite his lovely surroundings, the panther is glaring.  His humans have disappointed him yet again.

Before I liquefy, though, I will employ my yellow, laser-equipped eyes to judge my Humans.

Pointedly.

Happy 4th of July

Posted on July 4, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

I’m celebrating the 4th with a late afternoon nap on fresh, cool sheets.

A handsome golden dog lounges on a large bed covered with a blue, yellow, and white floral quilt.  A human in jeans and a black tee shirt is partially visible next to the dog.  Despite the comfortable surroundings, the dog looks worried.  He’s probably worrying about the noisy way other humans celebrate the 4th of July, when it will start, and whether it will disrupt his nap.

Instead of setting off those dreadful fireworks that boom, bang, pop, and thus disrupt countless snoozes, why don’t you Humans try celebrating the 4th in a similar way?

I’d sure appreciate it.

—Sunny
