We’re following the social distancing protocol these days, which includes working out at home. I’m grateful to have equipment that allows me to do so, and I’m also grateful for my gym bros. They’re so helpful and observant. Fuzzy moral support is best moral support.

CPotD #049: The Latest Box
We had to get a trim kit when we replaced our dead microwave (which Brian installed brilliantly), and it came in a rather large box. Stan has claimed this box as his own and I don’t have the heart to move it. Look how happy he is. We’ll move it at some point when we […]
CPotD #048: Gatekeeper
Udo takes his protector role very seriously. If the front door is open, he’s guarding it. He also takes his sacred duty to avoid the camera very seriously. If a camera is pointed at him, he’s not looking at it. In this example, he’s instead looking over my shoulder at absolutely nobody. I took several […]
CPotD #047: That Belly
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 #045: Rainy Day Blues
Udo is not a fan of this windy, rainy weather because it postpones our scheduled walks (aka sniff tours). He is a fan of consolation crunchies, though.
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 #043: Conquest
Nutterbutter loves the two kick toys we have, but he’s always stealthy about playing with them. I walked through the living room this morning after my workout and found that he had once again claimed the giraffe toy. I suspect he kicked the everloving fluff out of it while no one was looking. He was […]
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 #041: Wingman
Nutterbutter, aka Mr. Cat About Town, stole my chair again this morning while I was lifting and didn’t want to give it up when I needed to sit down for a teleconference. This is his reaction when I asked if we could share it. He doesn’t look enthused, but he made room and snuggled right […]
