What better than two catnip balls to play with. Except, how to get them both under control? Having just “killed” the two catnip balls, the Kitty rests, keeping an eye on them so they don’t escape.

The Kitty had just finished a spurt of catnip-mouse induced frenzy. She was still keeping her eye on her mouse to make sure it didn’t escape.

This is an unusual shot: this ball is rarely in the middle of the floor without the cat on top of it. As I was thinking about how to take this shot I heard the cat running toward the ball which meant her hair was about to get on my brand new lens. Gad. Our [...]

I recently subscribed (RSS) to the babycats pool on flickr. It’s a load of fun to watch this stuff, almost like watching one’s own cat jump around high on catnip. I look forward to this feed every morning and the cats are all over the world (tip: cats are cats and cat owners are cat [...]

We just had some wonderful visitors from the UK who brought us two bottles of Pimm’s (a gin-based mixer) and we mixed up a Pimm’s based concoction with fruit and lemonade and wow, it’s the bomb. The cat, however, is not happy about the fact that Anne is getting a bit looped.

I just saw this persian kitten up on flickr and had to post it. Gad. Check the entire set, it’s quite amazing. Anders Viklund seems to be a collector of these hairy beasts and he sure knows how to photograph them.

Teal Sunglasses: Rules for cats: ‘Do not allow any closed doors in any room. To get door open, stand on hind legs and hammer with forepaws. Once door is opened, it is not necessary to use it.’ This has to be one of the best cat posts of all time. Love it. (Via inessential.com.)

Lest my friend Kees in Germany thinks I’m too much of a “Mac-Neatnick” here’s what’s on the left side of my brand new PowerBook. Note that in spring, cats shed their winter coats wherever they lie and all I can say is, thank god for compressed air.

The Kitty, who is now 15, arthritic and very timid about going outside because she’s lost the entire territory around the house to wild animals, came out with me while I started the arduous chore of raking the winter detritus off the lawn. She sniffed around in a leaf pile and started scent rolling and [...]

I was up in the office, feeling sorry for myself that I had sold my long lens (Canon 70-200 f4) to a friend and good pictures were still happening while I awaited the arrival of a new long lens (Canon 70-200 f2.8 IS) when I noticed that the cat, who is now officially 15 was [...]

The Kitty, who is arthritic and losing her ability to walk wanted up. What can you say? So, up she came. Once she settled in she knocked everything loose on the desk, on the floor and then spread out over my taxes which I was in the middle of staring at (with nothing happening). I [...]

I was working away in the office here and heard the cat running all over the place in the next room. Under normal circumstances this is not unusual for a cat, but our cat is 14, arthritic, and sleeps as a profession. When I went to investigate I saw what it was: she had done [...]

I just got a new pair of shoes and as soon as they were out of their box the Kitty got in, rumpled around with the paper (I was a bit worried she thought it was a new litter box) and scrunched down. It looked like a “photo moment” so I broke out camera and [...]

Every time my wife Anne does yoga in the house, the cat finds her and “participates.” This is a cat that looks for every opportunity to rub her face up against yours so a yoga pose is a perfect opportunity. Maybe we’ll call this pose “downward cat.” As you can see, she’s after a face [...]

We got our 15 year old cat a new toy mouse stuffed with catnip. If you want proof that catnip is “kitty cocaine” this picture ought to do it.

My cat sometimes finds her way onto my desk and tosses my pen on the floor. And, I find this so cute I encourage it by picking the pen up and giving it back to her. She eventually gets bored with this and starts chewing on the mouse cord. Man, does she ever have me [...]
