Unforgivable Negligence!

We're not here for the cat pictures, dude. Which is good, since you don't post cat pictures. :)

And the realization came upon me like a thunderbolt:

I’ve never, ever posted a cat picture!

OMG!!! And I’m a lifelong lover and keeper of felis domesticus! I’ve had more cats than Carter has Little Liver Pills! Why, at this very moment I have three: April Come She Will, Uriel The Great, and Fluffy. (The last one is a recent adoptee who arrived pre-named, so don’t blame it on me. Anyway, she’s a longhair, so the name sort of fits.)

Besides, what’s a Website without a few cat pictures? In the spirit whereof, I present:

Thank you, commenter lelnet, for drawing that omission to my attention!

We have too many cats. Too many for me means > 2.

I call them whatever name comes to mind. The kids mostly know which one I mean, and the cats don't seem to care.

My favorite cats were both born in Bethpage, NY....

We were adopted by a Maine Coon when we bought our home here in SW MT. His name is Tripper (obvious to any cat person), but my wife calls him Puppy-Cat, since he follows her all over the property, stopping when she stops, sitting when she sits, even coming when he is called.

But - my wife would drool over the last Cat. She has aways wanted a D-9 (but with ripper blades on the rear, so she can garden on the scale her heart truly desires).

It's impossible to have too many cats, Weetabix.
We have a gang of feral cats here on the farm which calls in every evening for snacks and it's a great pleasure to just sit and watch them.

April looks quite thin. Is she okay?

Love your blog BTW.
