Wise cats help you be more like them

October Practice

Posted on October 9, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

Sure, October is Darth’s month as he’s a black House Panther.

A handsome tuxedo cat perches atop a white, wooden kitchen step stool and arches his back dramatically.

We other Cats must still practice our terrifying arches, though.

Spooky season isn’t just for voids.

Nosh

Posted on October 7, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

It’s so dark outside, Cosmo, that it must be nearly midnight yet we still haven’t received our nightly nosh.

A little yellow dog and a large black and white hound lounge together on a grey dog bed.

I know, Sunny. I am most distressed.

Earlier

Posted on October 7, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

It’s getting darker earlier and earlier, but dinner continues to occur impossibly late.

A large, extremely handsome black and white hound lounges on a dog bed and looks wistfully towards the kitchen.

Unfair.

Question

Posted on October 5, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

My magnificent, white-tipped tail forms a perfect question mark.

A handsome tuxedo cat lounges on a large, fluffy gray dog bed.  His tail is curled as a question mark, and he looks at the camera inquisitively.

The question is: Where are my snacks?

Options

Posted on October 5, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

Sometimes you feel like a nap on a surface less supportive than the memory foam stuffed Dog bed but still softer than the hardwood floor.

An all black, glossy dog naps upon a thin cushion atop a wooden floor.  Behind her, there is a larger, puffier gray dog bed lined with fleece.  That bed looks much comfier than the thin cushion, but maybe it depends on one’s mood.

Options are important.

Cool enough

Posted on October 3, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

Ahem, Humans! It is already cool enough, yet the bulky AC continues to impede my preferred Birdie TV viewing screen.

A gorgeous, glossy, fierce tortoiseshell cat crouches on a wooden, cat-sized window seat and directs her formidable, yellow gaze on the human taking her picture.  A large, white AC unit occupies the window and prevents the cat from looking out.  She is right to be annoyed.  Her human needs to take care of this yesterday!

Take care of this NOW!!!

Charging

Posted on October 2, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

Sure, we Cats have an impressively long battery life.

A large dilute tortoiseshell cat uses a surge protector as a pillow as she naps.

But it’s still important to charge us to ensure optimal purr motor performance and prevent accidental Murder Mitten deployment.

Most Excellent

Posted on October 2, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

Today is Sunday and brunch happened but it wasn’t ordinary brunch.

It was homemade beef and rice brunch AND we got two servings.

A large black and white hound lounges in a puddle of buttery sunshine on a window seat built into a bay window.

Today was the most excellent Sunday in recent memory.

Cuddle

Posted on September 30, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

When Xena goes in for a lap cuddle, the paparazzi don’t always react.

A man is sitting outside on a brown wooden Adirondack chair.  An enormous black and white hound is sitting on the man’s lap with his back legs bent atop the man’s right thigh and his front legs straight, with his impressive white paws flat on the left armrest.  Both the man and the hound appear perfectly comfortable and relaxed.  Nothing to see here, just a standard lap dog availing himself of a cuddle.

But when I do the exact same thing, you can barely see for all the flashbulbs going off.

Swing

Posted on September 29, 2023 by sevencatsandcounting

I am quite fond of my swinging bench…

A handsome tuxedo cat naps on a swinging bench

…but it is getting a bit chilly out.

Same cat, same bench, but now he is under a blanket

Ahhh, that’s better! Now, fetch me some refreshments, Humans.
