Laugh. Learn. Love cats.
Newton: I’m the King of the cat tree! Ruler of all I survey! No one else can climb up here, or they will face my wrath.
Newton: What’s that I hear? Is it footsteps interrupting my Mancat Monday?
Ashton: It’s me. And don’t you DARE try it, Newton. This Mancat Monday thing is not an excuse for your hogging the cat tree. Don’t make me come up there and beat you up.
Newton: *sigh* Little sisters…
Newton: Yesterday was a long day. First, somecat who may or may not be me learned to turn on the weather radio at 5:00 in the morning. It woke everyone up early, but it didn’t get our breakfast any earlier. Then we had terrible storms. I don’t like thunder, and that interrupted my afternoon naps.
So today, I’m going to make up for lost time with some serious napping.
There’s plenty of room on the bed if you want to nap with me. But no loud noises. I have to do lots of catching up on my beauty rest!
Our friend, Athena, has been running a Caturday Art blog hop for a while now, but we haven’t been organized enough to participate until today, when we let Pierre be the subject of a a sketch.
We created this image by running one of our favorite photos of Pierre through a filter at Photofunia.
Have a great Caturday!
Today is Respect your Cat Day, celebrated on this day every year because on March 28, 1384, Richard II of England issued an edict forbidding the consumption of cats.
Just to be clear, around here, every day is Respect Your Cat Day. It should be at your house, too. But in case it isn’t, start with today and work from there. You have to start somewhere.
Need some ideas about ways to celebrate? How about a really cozy bed all of your own, maybe even getting breakfast served there?
This is an example of how not to respect your cat. No touching the tail!
Instead, we prefer treats as a form of respect. Lots of treats. Large treats.
Hopefully, this gives you some ideas about ways you can properly respect your cat on this important holiday!
