Cars

The Mother Kitty is ready to head to Julie's for the weekend, but she can't leave yet. As usual, Gordon forgets that cars have a purpose other than being a warm place for catnaps. And Simon has yet to realize that his spot is not quite as safe as those with seatbelts.

Signs

After visiting my favorite theater last week, I came home and told the kitties all about its marquee. Here, they re-enact my joyous/frantic anticipation of the coming attraction. I think they all get it just about right....

Although The Mother Kitty doesn't quite understand all the hubbub, she does come prepared to watch this adventure's final installment. (After all, she's been waiting to see how Captain Jack Sparrow will escape his latest predicament, and she can't wait to meet his dad!) At the moment, however, she is smiling at the thought of me bringing home the DVD, which guarantees her at least three hours of lap time.

See you at the movies!!!

Comet is an expert at finding new hiding places. Here, he's testing out his chameleonic skills...and enjoying a nap.

Neighbor

Sometimes, when The Kitties are lazing about, they catch some neighboring kitties in the yard. Simon likes to hone his territorial skills on them, but Mother Kitty is rarely bothered.

Remember?

Some days, The Mother Kitty and Gordon have the same catnap dreams: years ago, she was the larger-than-life kitty/toy, and he had plenty of playmates in his brothers and sisters.
