The early days… back when all four of Zee and Zoey’s kittens lived with us – at this point they did not have permanent names and we could barely tell them apart.

Once upon a time for 4 little kittens, hanging out consisted of a very orderly world with a floor and 4 walls. And then one day at approximately 8 weeks of age, the floodgates of the bedroom door opened up and a whole new world existed. One that was tall and could be climbed. Ever since then the term hanging out had a whole new meaning. Literally… Check it out… Read more

I did a post this past Caturday on boxes, stuff, and the inventory of life. It was a thought-provoking piece and I really enjoyed everyone’s reflective comments. But what about the real important stuff to a cat? Like baskets… life doesn’t just have to be about boxes, you know… So, as part of our ongoing Tour de Cat series where we show you a firsthand tour of our house, Zee/Zoey style, for this Wordless Wednesday we focus on the often over-shadowed, but very important nonetheless, basket.

Hmmm…. what do we have here? Zoey wonders if she should keep exploring, play with a toy, or find a good basket to nap in…

Harley is no fool and doesn’t hesitate for a moment… Toys? What toys? This basket is meant for napping!

Peanut agrees with Harley and camouflages herself so that she and the toys have become one!

Mia takes a more decorative approach and looks like a stunning accessory inside the basket as she poses for the camera!

Rolz takes the prize for the ultimate stunning, handsome, and elegant cat…

Are they here yet, Rolz? Are they here? No… I’m not talking about Santa and his reindeer – I’m talking about the kids!! Yup, tomorrow my youngest son, Joe, from Upstate New York and Dan’s youngest daughter, Jackie, from Boston, will be here to help us celebrate the holidays. And if that isn’t exciting enough, the following week Dan’s oldest daughter, Crystal (also from Boston) and her boyfriend, Dave will be coming by! We will also have Dan’s Mom coming by for a few days and then, of course, there is my Mom and my oldest son, Chris, who both live locally that will be in and out to share in the festivities!

Shhh… It’s me, Zoey, and I’m not supposed to be in here, so today’s Tour de Cats has to be done quietly. Just walk lightly on your paws and no loud yowling or meowing so that I don’t get caught… Read more
