Toon-toons

One can of tuna and five cats.

Oh, wait. Missing a cat...here comes Orangey now!

The clamor rises as I begin to portion out the dishes. Smunchy is the loudest.

I push the last dish to the orange cat. He likes to pretend he isn’t interested.

Ah, the happy sound of five tongues lapping.

Zoro is a Bigun

I seem to have a knack for growing big cats. Take Zoro, for instance. He was a small, timid thing when we got him. He developed into a long, lean yearling. His coat was long and silky, but not terribly thick. When he was about a year and half, a terrible fight with Bear left him sickly for many months. When he finally recovered, he put on bulk and grew double the coat. He’s now the biggest of our kitties, but still as timid as if he were the runt.


If Mr Tibbs were still alive, they certainly could both no longer fit on top this table!

He Does This Sometimes

Sometimes, when I pat Zoro, he sticks his tongue out and leaves it hanging. The first time it happened, I freaked out. I even went so far as to poke and pull at his tongue, but he wouldn’t retract it. After I convinced myself that he wasn’t having a stroke, I found it funny. He did it again last night, and obligingly left it protruding while I ran to find the camera.
