Time Flies

Norma can’t believe summer is over. Life goes by too fast.
 

Feline Mechanic

I think a mouse or other rodent died in my car engine. When I turn on the heat there’s an awful stench. I asked Alias if he wouldn’t mind checking it out…
 

Weekend Buddies

They plan to spend a lot of time together this weekend just like they did last weekend and the one before and…
 

Bad News

I broke the news to Norma and Alias they didn’t win the cutest pet contest. Ironically, they took the news cute as hell well.
 

Norma Isn’t Happy

Someone stole her perch. 
 

Cutest Pet Contest

 I entered Norma and Alias in our office’s Cutest Pet Contest. After the first day, they are in third place. That’s actually impressive since I haven’t voted so others are voting for them. Good luck kids…

Burning the Candle at Both Ends

I have a lot of late nights and early mornings the past few weeks. They are wondering why I bother. I’m not sure.
 

Collector

Alias’ collection of toilet paper rolls keeps growing.
 

Resting Spots

Norma has her favorite spots to rest. This is one of them.
 

Cutest Pets

I’m entering Norma and Alias in our office’s cutest pet contest. I have a lot of photos to choose from.
 

Explorer

I left my knapsack unzipped. Someone quickly discovered I left my knapsack unzipped.
 

Queen of the Hill

This has become Norma’s go to safe spot. She likes it when I put some toys up there with her so she can bat them off.

 

Somedays

Some days you just need to curl up in a ball in your cat tree.
 

Waiting for Me

Apparently I was late to the house meeting.
 

Autumn Days

The furnace is on in our house but shared heat is their preferred method.
 

Supervisor

Alias loves to sit on my desk while I’m working. I’m not sure why since he doesn’t look at me…
 

Love and War

Twenty minutes earlier they were wrestling and I was concerned it was getting a little too rough. 
 

Norma’s Big Adventure

Norma had her annual visit to the vet. Needless to say she was extremely unhappy when I scooped her up and put her in the carrier. She checked out healthy. I did talk to the vet about Norma’s anxiety which is more than any other cat I’ve known. I just need to continue trying to provide a peaceful environment. 
 

Empathy

I’ve been dealing with some difficult professional and personal challenges. Norma is spending a lot more time on my lap. She knows something’s up. It’s amazing how cats can pick up on the smallest and biggest of things.
