Most cats love to lay on warm laundry, but Stanley has made a career of it. He is our household laundry inspector and he takes his job quite seriously. This picture shows him loafing on the bedspread with a warm sunbeam shining in behind him. What you can’t see is the underwear he’s parked his […]

CPotD #078: Stan’s Spot
One of Stan’s go-to spots is the little blanket Brian made for him a couple of years ago. When he’s not sleeping on my feet or in the recliner, he’s usually on his blanket. He loves that thing. He has to curl up a bit to fit on it now that he’s fully grown, which […]
CPotD #076: Nurse and Guardian
I’ve come down with a case of sinus crud and am feeling like hot garbage, so Stanley has engaged double Nurse and Guardian modes to help me feel better. He protects me from cooties, dogs, and kittens. It’s super effective, too. Udo won’t even mess with him when he’s in this mode, so the cooties […]
CPotD #074: Bonded
Oscar and Stanley tend to wrestle so much that sometimes I forget they’re bonded. Then I walk and and see stuff like this. Such love, such snuggles. They make my heart happy.
CPotD #073: Chill Judging
Stanley can combine the utter relaxation of a chill pose with the haughty judgement of a cat better than any I’ve ever seen. Just look at that face. He is a masterpiece of feline engineering and we adore him.
CPotD #071: Frayed Cray Station
Brian bought this little hammock we call the Cray Station for Stanley back when he was a tiny baby. Stanley loved it instantly and still does, despite the fact he doesn’t entirely fit in it anymore and he’s frayed most of the scratchy rope off the pillars. One of these days we’re going to get […]
CPotD #068: New Spot
Brian researched, rummaged, and sewed yesterday to make us cloth masks for when we need to go out. Part of the process was ironing the parts, so we busted out our tiny ironing board and set it on the kitchen counter. Stanley really approves of said ironing board. He’s claimed it as his new perch, […]
CPotD #067: Feeties
I got surprise bonus Oscar snugs this evening! He’s been in Strong Independent Kitten mode these days, so I’m thrilled to get some extra foot snugs. Oscar isn’t quite as big a fan of the feeties as Stanley is (he prefers the lap), but he’s just as cute when he snugs them. He was watching […]
CPotD #062: Mine
Stanley has been extra snuggy lately. I love when he goes through these phases because he’s so affectionate, but the photo opportunities are a nice bonus. He’s so snuggy he’s even laying on the kick toys. He’s such a sweet boy. The little bumps of fur between his ears that look like tiny devil horns […]
CPotD #061: Stink Eye
Our Sunday was not so lazy this time. After a big round of yard work that included mowing and cleaning out all the gutters, we came back to our chairs to find them taken. Stanley also had claimed my jacket, and he was not interested in giving it up. Nutter wasn’t interested in letting Brian […]
