I’ve spent a lot of time taking pictures of the cats over the past few years. Kipling, at least, loves the camera – Floyd, not so much. But all good things come to an end, and though it’s painful to write, this will be the final Feline Friday post. Why? Well, Floyd was my ex’s cat from the beginning, and he wants his cat...

The heat exhaust for my laptop is on the left side, and Floyd is a lot less subtle than he thinks about sitting next to it. First he’ll hop up on the table. Then he’ll casually stretch and sit down near the laptop. Gradually, slowly, as he shifts positions, he’ll get closer and closer to the keyboard, until…

It’s winter, so I’ve swapped out my laptop’s background for something seasonally appropriate! Floyd is still trying to get as close as possible to the heat exhaust. Me, I’m happy – knitting, beer, internet, and a warm cat. Life doesn’t get much better than that… until the laptop overheats. Maybe I should move the cat.

If I leave my phone on the table, a cat will sit on it.

Floyd can look so intently at anything but the camera… in this case, I think he had his eye on a squirrel.

Happy Thanskgiving, one day late, from Floyd and Kipling! I wonder if they know how good they have it, and if they’re capable of being thankful. (I do, and I am – very much so.)

I don’t know for sure that it was Kipling who befouled my couch-pillows with the contents of his stomach, but I’d lay odds that of the two cats here, it was the spotted one. As a result, I had to bring out the backup pillows… and it didn’t take long for Floyd to sit on them, despite their odd shape and his relative discomfort.

As I said a few weeks ago, I’ve learned to keep the guitar case closed. Still, it attracts a cat every time it’s out.

Best buddies.
