    Life is better with a cat on your lap

    ...especially mornings.

    I swear, in every photo she is motionless and fast asleep.

    Her name is now Lyra, btw, after the young, brave and friendly heroine of the Golden Compass books.

    Oh, and we've reopened the cat flap our last cat used. She took to it immediately, with great joy. In, and out. In. And out! And in! Cat flaps rule

    Lyra's a beauty! I love it when cats sleep with their legs hanging over the edge, like they have no cares in the world. She's obviously very happy.

    I came home to this today...



    Well first I noticed another dollar on the floor. I thought "There was another bill with that one" and immediately went for the water bowl. That's where everything ends up. She actually rifled through a bag I had on the floor and pulled them out of a pocket. Devil Cat strikes again....

    Nono, what do you expect from a Calico? When I was in college, I had a gorgeous calico named Clare. Her personality was as beautiful as her appearance.

    I haven't posted a pic of my critters in a while, so here are the kitties critiquing the portrait I drew of them.

    That's terrific! And they look like themselves - the upright dignity and the curious look at the drawing.

    Yes Lyra is beautiful! My Suki lays like that in my lap at the computer many many times a day.

    NoNo, when i was a little girl we had a cat that made tea. We kept finding tea bags in the cat water dish, and the water turned to tea. My mother kept telling me to stop doing that, but I kept saying it wasn't me! One day i saw my cat go into the brown par garbage bag in the kitchen, fish out a used tea bag, and carry it over to her water dish and drop it in. I told my mother but she just couldn't believe me. Finally one day the cat did it again but my mother saw it. The cat never put anything except tea bags in the water dish.
    Amazing.

    I wonder what Ruthie thinks she is going to accomplish with the 'money tea'. Maybe she's hoping it will 'expand' into $100? lol!

    That's so funny! Although I'm sure you didn't think it was too funny when you were getting blamed for it

    Anything new goes straight to the water bowl. Certain things end up in there repeatedly. It's very frustrating. And then there are the days she knocks the bowl around, spilling water everywhere. I looked up drowning toys and one theory is that their feeding area is "their" domain, a special place, and so they take things to their safe place. Or that they enjoy the smell or texture of a wet object. My only conclusion is that cats are insane.

    Raccoons wash everything. Maybe your cat does too.
