Warren, Connecticut. Today was one of the roughest days of our lives. Anne and I had to put Kitty, a cat we’ve had just shy of twenty years to sleep.
She’s been living with a worsening case of kidney disease for over a year and in the past month she started showing signs that it had [...]

Warren, Connecticut. It’s raining so time for a little kitchen table macro fun. This is the syringe of methimazole that we give our 19.5 year old cat for hyperthyroidism two times a day. We’ve been doing this for many years now and her thyroid condition is under control. These "dosings" are not her favorite [...]

Warren, Connecticut. Our wonderful old black cat who is now all gray had her nineteenth birthday today. She’s quite arthritic and has a tough time getting around these days and her thyroid needs medication twice a day but she does have her moments and we do our best to keep her happy. The Kitty was [...]

Well, our old cat head buts me every night. I was pretty sure they were affection and now I know they’re kisses.

Our friend Gary is visiting and took this picture. The Kitty is getting very old and fragile and is shedding like mad for some reason but she’s still kicking at 18 and a half.

Warren, Connecticut. I got these small stuffed cats at my favorite Japanese handmade paper store in LA a while back. They’re too small to be pincushions so they’re simply dust collectors (or stuffed hello kitties). They’ve just earned their keep by posing for this shot.
Happy Holidays to all of our friends both offline and online [...]

Warren, Connecticut. I have all kinds of mini-ceramic animals from years of buying Red Rose tea but this is the first cat I’ve gotten. I must say, the smug look is quite cat-like. Those Brits know their cats.

Warren, Connecticut. I know, this is not a great image but I like it anyway. I was trying out Gary’s Canon EF 24mm f/1.4L USM lens and even though the light in the room made this a tough exposure (for me), it demonstrates what’s so interesting about shooting with a fast wide angle lens (subject [...]

My friend Linda Potter sent me a news clipping about this cat, which, looks a heck of a lot like our 17 year old cat Kitty. They must share a longevity gene…

Warren, Connecticut. Our seventeen year old cat, Kitty spends most of her time hiding these days but every now and then she comes out for a pet and the possibility of a photo op. She was a black cat at one time but has now turned very gray, just like her "parents" and one of [...]

Every now and then Jim Lehrer (The NewsHour) interviews John F. Burns, the New York Times’ Baghdad bureau chief and I look forward to those interviews because Burns is fascinating both to hear and to see. I was surprised and delighted to read this more casual piece of his on cats in Baghdad: What [...]

Warren, Connecticut. Our cat, "The Kitty" turned 17 today and given what this cat has been through as a "professional cat" living to 17 is akin to one of us living to 100. Here’s the back story I wrote on The Kitty on her 16th birthday.
The Kitty has had arthritis for a few years and [...]

Warren, Connecticut. Our 16 year old cat somehow made it up onto my desk and found my favorite pen (uni-ball vision elite) and proceeded to bat it around, messing up all of my important papers and walking across the computer’s keyboard a few times. Instead of picking her up and tossing her on the floor [...]
