Despite his diminutive size, Oscar has quite a respectable tiger belly. Like Stanley’s, it swings from side to side when he runs and makes him look like a tiny jungle cat. I was able to get a good shot of it this morning while he was cleaning his tail. Look at that fuzzy chonk. He’s […]

CPotD #046: Unending Battle
Oscar loves to wrestle with Stanley, which often results in epic chases across the house and furniture when Stanley gets his can full. These chases usually end like this. Oscar hasn’t quite figured out that this pose means he’s about to get his fuzzy butt kicked, but I think he will eventually. In the meantime, […]
CPotD #044: Focus
We’ve opened the windows for Spring and the cats are all about it, especially Oscar. He’s back to spying on his arch nemesis, Maple Squirrel. The little villain likes to dig up nuts right under our bedroom window and carry them back up the neighbor’s maple tree. He is unimpressed by his feline observer. Oscar […]
CPotD #042: Salt and Pepper
Oscar has always had cute salt and pepper spots spreading out from his white patches, but they’ve become a lot more prominent as he’s grown. The ones flaring out from his chest are especially bright. They’re like little lens flares. Between those and the random white hairs around his haunches, he’s quite a striking little […]
CPotD #040: Sunday Snugboy
Oscar has been snuggly today and I have been weirdly cold, so we’re a match made in heaven. He took up his warming spot on my footrest and we were both happy this evening. He’s a little sweet pea and I love him.
CPotD #038: The Spot
All of our cats go through phases with their favorite spots to day sleep. They’ll rotate across the bed, the heated bed, the guest bed, our chairs, etc. Oscar has decided his latest favorite spot is where Brian’s feet go, and he will defend it with gusto. He had been sleeping until Loud Dog McGee […]
CPotD #037: Curious Loaf
Oscar has really improved his loaf form and was practicing this morning when Udo and I returned from our walk. The wind picked up and made the roof creak as I was taking the picture, which resulted in this face. It’s an adorable cross between curious and annoyed, but I think annoyed won because he […]
CPotD #035: Fierce Snugs
Oscar was super snuggy last night after dinner. He had been passed out in my lap, but woke up and yawned as I was trying to take a picture. If that maw doesn’t say RAWR, I don’t know what does. So fierce. So snuggly. So cute.
CPotD #032: Weekend Snugs
We got a lot done today: laundry, chores, and an excursion to pick up a new microwave because our old one yeeted itself back in December. Now we can settle down to celebrate the weekend, which includes ridiculous snug sessions. These two pop my heart as it is, but I’m utterly doomed when they combine […]
CPotD #030: Improvement
Oscar is obviously feeling much better today, rampaging around the house like his usual self. He’s still a little tired, but that hasn’t stopped him from several attempted murders. He tried to ambush me when I knelt down to take his picture in the window this morning. I’m so relieved. Our little guy is on […]
