The Right Time

Who cares if it's 11:30 at night?  It's still a good time for a treat.

Satisfactory Saturday

Thompson follows up Good Friday with a satisfactory Saturday.

Not To Share

Theo doesn't like the fact that Diego-san's nose and shadow are intruding in his sun spot.

Lights, Camera, Action...

I think he missed the call for "action."

Hey Waiter... There's Hair in My...

Diego-san gave me a little worry yesterday.  On the morning run down to breakfast he started making the hacking up a hairball sound.  He never horked up a hairball and eventually did come down for his breakfast.  But he didn't eat it.  I think that's the first meal he's ever skipped.  I had an evening meeting so I didn't get home until after 9 p.m.  By that time he seemed back to himself and he snarfed down all the food I gave him...

From One End to the Other

It's difficult to know where one starts and the other ends (at least when they are sleeping).

Angel Flying Too Close to the Ground

I was listening to Willie Nelson's song, "Angels Flying Too Close to the Ground."  Theo got low to the ground to try and see if he could see these angels Willie (and I) were singing about.

Our Routines

Pretty typical Saturday afternoon in our house.  Diego-san trying to block my view of the TV and pay more attention to him; Thompson doing his calisthenics; and Theo staring off in to space into a world all his own...

Spring Competition

We have about fifty feet of snow piled up outside and the end of the week featured some very cold (near zero) temperatures.  I'm not sure who in the house is longing for spring more... it may very well be a four way tie.

The Art of Relaxation

Sun spot- check. Comfortable positioning- check.  Crossed legs- check. 

Revolution Next?

The boyz were a little surprised (and dismayed) to learn that our house is not a democracy and their 3-1 vote has been vetoed by the food provider.

Majority Rule

I mentioned a couple of weeks ago how rare it was to get a photo with all three boyz in it.  Now for the second time this month I encountered the rare photo opportunity.  This time I was out voted at the house meeting where the majority voted that the meal frequency regulations in the house are much too severe and additional meals should be added to the schedule...

House Meeting

We're about to call the meeting to order...

True to the Core

If Theo or Diego-san ever looked at me this way I'd assume they were guilty of something and were trying to soften me up by trying to look sweet.  When Thompson looks at me this way I know it's because he's a very sweet boy.

Owl Like Wisdom

If you don't give a hoot, let out a poot.

Hangin Out

Granted, I'd be the first to admit that our house is nothing more than ordinary.  Still, of all the rooms to lounge in, I'm not sure I'd choose the bathroom.

Let's Make a Deal

Theo wonders what's behind door number one...

Diego-san and I

This sums up my relationship with Diego-san...

Lots of Benefits

It not only feels good to have a clean face, but it also tastes good too.

Stat Head

Diego-san told me that even though no one is keeping track of such things he just wanted to point out that before yesterday's post, Theo had appeared in eight of the previous nine postings on this blog.  Diego-san told me he was under the impression this was an equal opportunities blog...

The Curl Up Approach

Monday's are best dealt with by being a big blob.

A Even More Direct Approach

Theo's method of drinking water straight from the tap is the least sanitary (for the rest of us anyway) but it gets the job done.

To Each His Own

Thompson often follows Diego-san's lead, watching his brother's moves before he attempts to do something himself.  In the case of drinking water straight from the tap, he can't use Diego-san's method of deflecting the stream of water with his paw.  If Thompson tried to do that he'd fall right on his face.  Still he found a good alternative method...

Theo's Big Adventure

Theo had his annual visit to the vet.  I warned him the night before that he was going on an adventure but come time to load him in his carrier he let me know he was not too pleased by the turn of events.  He checked out fine.  10.6 lbs which is slightly heavier than last year. He couldn't figure out how this thing in front of him should be the final arbitrator in deciding if he's being fed enough...

Finally

Since this was a historic photo shoot I thought I would post one last pic.

The Flip Side

I like how you can see Theo and Thompson's reflection in the space heater in front of them...

My Angels

After feeding the boyz lunch I walked out to the living room to this sight.  I have very very few pictures of all three boyz together and thought there was very little chance they'd stay in this location when I scrambled to get my camera.  But they did.  We've been watching a lot of old 'Charlies Angels' episodes.  It's the perfect show to watch when I'm practicing my guitar since I don't need to listen to the dialogue to figure out what's going on.    Maybe this was the boyz imitation of the Angels...

Monday Face

Looks a little more weary than his Sunday face.

Sunday Face

Somehow is sweeter and more innocent (looking) than the rest of the week.

Hey Stop It

Theo is glaring at me because I'm bothering Diego-san with my picture taking. Theo feels it's his responsibility, and his alone, to bother his older brother.

Please Take Notes

Diego-san is a firm believer that there is a proper technique for drinking water straight out of the tap.  There's some bear like movements; water tastes better off your paw; slurping is A-OK.
