Laugh. Learn. Love cats.
Newton: Toss that sproingy toy over here. I’ve got some biting to do.
Newton: There you are, my lovely. I have been dreaming about you all afternoon.
Newton: Oh, yes, this is perfect between my teeth. 
Newton: Humans use string between their teeth, but this is so much better. And it doesn’t make the humans worried I am eating string!
Cupcake: Guess where I am?
Cupcake: I jumped all the way on top of the beach shack shaped cabinet the humans have in our living room. I’m taller than any human now! Look how close the ceiling is. You can also see that my humans don’t dust things above their eye level. I’m taking care of that for them now.
Cupcake: I can reach the top of the drapes, too. Without getting yelled out for climbing them, even.
Cupcake: This isn’t as comfortable as I expected. It’s kind of pointy.
Cupcake: Maybe I should have thought about how I would get down from here before I jumped up.
Newton: I moved the ottoman over for you. Jump down this way.
Cupcake: Thank goodness.
Cupcake: A kitty could get hungry waiting for a rescue up there.
Ashton: It’s the most wonderful time of the year: when the windows and doors are finally open after the long summer months.
Ashton: I can finally walk out onto the porch and smell the outside smells.
Ashton: And I can see the birds, too! You know I could catch them if I really wanted to.
Ashton: Rolling on the porch floor feels sooooo good.
Ashton: Wait, did I see a bird again?
Do you have open windows so you can smell the outside smells now, too?
I recently took a trip to see some old friends, like this handsome guy.
It wasn’t just cats. I also looked at a lot of amazing scenery, laughed a lot with friends, and slept far too little. Those are all the signs of a great vacation, aren’t they?
Don’t worry, I didn’t travel alone. Mr. Bones was waiting in the airport when I arrived.
I guess I should be glad he had a sign being about Mr. Bones instead of holding a sign with my name on it, indicating that he was my driver. He doesn’t look like his vision is all that good.
After a lot of fun, including little wand toy action, it was time to come home.
My trip was the longest I had ever been apart from Cupcake since she arrived at our house, and I wasn’t sure how she was going to respond to my return.
Cupcake: I don’t think I know you, lady.
Cupcake: I missed out on my baristas and whipped cream, and I can smell you’ve been hanging out with another cat.
I guess I have some explaining to do.
