Friday Cat Blogging: Pussies and Seamen

What? It’s a website of photos of cats and sailors. Now what could be more darling?

It’s been a real long time since I last did the cat-blogging, but I’m obviously behind because I’ve been getting requests to talk about my cat some more. Dunno why, it’s not like anything much happens in her life, she’s stuck in a cheap apartment in Kelowna. So I’m gonna pad this out with links too.

This is a month old, but my friend Chrissy sent it to me and it’s cute: a cat playing with an iPad:

I tried that with my cat and the Kindle but she didn’t seem that impressed. Must be the lack of colour screen.

Okay, so I like cats a lot and some of you think I’m all rather silly about that but I do have limits, unlike some people. I don’t care if Shebang were at death’s door, I’m not marrying her (though this being Canada our both being female is not the issue, but BEING DIFFERENT SPECIES IS OMFG). I’ve lost a few cats in my time, and it really sucks but I’m not sure you’re checking off an item in the kitteh’s bucket list by making her an honourable woman. Because she’s A CAT.

Okay, okay, fine, I’ll talk about Shebang, Mr. C.L. who emailed me the other week. He asked for photos of her at her “new locale” and info on how she’s handling the change. Um, it’s been 9 months. That’s like a decade in cat years. Also in bored city girl years. So there’s no change left. Frankly she was fine once I unpacked and got rid of the mountain of boxes and wrapping paper, and that was in August.

I think cats are usually fine wherever they are, so long as you’re there to feed them and provide toys and furniture and be a warm body to curl up on. Come to think of it, that sounds like a pretty good deal for anyone.

The picture above is her on my bed (Mom crocheted that blanket years ago), and the picture below is her on the top of the la-z-boy chair. She seems pretty comfy to me. Also I switched her food a few months ago and she no longer has explosive diarrhea.

TMI Friday!
