OK Corral

Got the boyz a new trough. Theo was disappointed that it wasn't so much an all you can eat buffet, or hardly a buffet at all since the food in all three dishes was the same.  That didn't stop him from trying to sample from all three dishes.

Mystery, Man

Days after the fact Theo is still struggling to figure out how Santa got into our house since there is no entrance from the chimney...

Happy Holidays


Thanks to our friend Jackie Bartosh for the wonderful portrait of the boyz...

The Resting Room

Thompson's most frequent resting spot is the couch in the living room. His favorite resting spot is when Diego-san is also resting on the couch  in the living room.

Thoughts of Sugar Plum Fairies

T'was the day before the night before Christmas and all through the house, all the creatures were scurring except for Thompson.

Taking No Chances

Not wanting to mess up his chances with Santa Theo has decided to sit with a blank look on his face from now until Wednesday.

PSA

A public service announcement from Thompson: a smile is just a frown turned upside down.

Food Please

I told Theo for Christmas, I'm planning on buying a stuffed cat for my great nephew.  Theo let me know he has never felt stuffed in his life but would like to give it a try.

Another Mystery

I'm not sure why Diego-san's eyes appear to be different colors in this picture.  I guess he might be trying out different contact lenses.

Pokey Hokey

You put your right foot out. You put your right arm out.  You put your ears out.  You put your tongue out. There's not much more you can put out.

Missed Opportunities Part Three

Thinking back on 2013 Thompson laments all the time wasted not sleeping.

Missed Opportunities Part Two

Thinking back on 2013, Diego-san laments all the time everyone wasted not giving him all the attention.

Missed Opportunities

Reflecting back on 2013 Theo laments all the time that was wasted not eating a meal.

Do You Feel Lucky?

Friday the 13th. Being a black cat. Diego-san is wondering why everyone in the house seems to be avoiding him today...

Show a Little Dignity Man

Thompson and Diego-san decided the movie we were watching wasn't nearly as entertaining as watching their brother tear around like a chicken with his head cutoff.

Our Connoisseur

Either the fish tastes a little nippy or the nip tastes a little fishy.

Don't Try This at Home

According to Thompson, you don't know how good sleeping feels until you've experienced sleeping with your foot in your mouth.

Growl

Diego-san informed me he would like to try the spotted leopard look. He doesn't understand why I won't help him change his coat.

Thinking of Santa

It's gotten extremely cold out the last few days. We're being warned about dangerous wind chills.  Theo figures if we have to live in this cold weather we might as well move our house to the north pole so it's easier for Santa to visit us anytime of the year.

Lemon Lessons

Thompson is a great philosopher.  He believes that when life hands you lemons, you make lemonade (and a silly pucker face).  When life does not hand you lemons, then it's OK to curl up and take a nap.

Yowl

I bought an electric guitar. The only one brave enough to attend my first practice session was Diego-san. His reaction was hilarious. He couldn't decide whether he was more curious or scared at this new sound. He slowly approached the amplifier, then would back away, ears turned up the entire time.  I think he thought the sound was of a cat being tortured and I think he was hoping it was one of his brothers (not to name names). Let's just say the sound was definitely not very Claptonesque.

What Lesson Will He Learn?

Theo became the first cat ever to live with me to do the unroll a whole roll of toilet paper trick.  He was sent to the penalty box afterward.

Positions Please

Seems appropriate they are napping in a heart shaped formation.

Beware of the Cat

Don't let the relaxed blob posture fool you... He can be ready to pounce at a moment's notice. He'd just prefer if you'd schedule your pouncing appointment a couple of days in advance.

Stop the Presses

Not the best photo but a historic one. Diego-san finally seems to be OK with Theo taking a nap in a nearby vicinity... We'll have more about this late breaking development in the future...
