Tour de Cats – Dining Room Table Edition
Face it – the cats rule the roost and us humans are humbly allowed to share the abode with them. In that paw, I thought I would share a new series on Wordless Wednesday’s with you all that I call “Tour de Cats” where I will give you an exclusive, behind the scenes tour of the Zee/Zoey household each week with a special theme. I will begin the tour in grand style by focusing on one of the most popular areas of the house – the dining room table. What? Did you actually think I was going to give you a tour of the house? Ugg… that would mean I would have to vacuum and dust and do all that cleaning stuff I try to do as little as possible of. No thank you.
Anyhow, at our house the dining room table is just about one of the most central and important places that there is for a cat and that’s why I thought we’d start here. Now what? Did you actually think a dining room table was for eating on? Ha! I did years ago but the cats have long since proven me wrong on that count… Anyhow, enjoy the tour and Happy Wordless Wednesday!
Awww… Poor Zee… this image of him on the dining room table was taken back in 2009 and it was a couple days after Zoey had given birth to the kittens he had fathered. You can see the forlorn look on his face – prior to the kittens he and Zoey were madly in love and together 24/7 – after the kittens his whole world was rocked and he missed her immensely as she was sequestered in the bedroom caring for her new babies.
Fast forward to today and this is typically how the day begins – Zee is on one side of the table and Rolz on the other. I love how Rolz has the same regal pose as his Dad.
This photo was taken last year when Kizmet was only about 4 months old. He is already in dining room table training mode and Rolz is snoopervising!
Sorry for the out of focus picture but I took it and not Dan… Anyhow, this is Zoey, soaking up the last of the afternoon sun.
I’ve shared this photo numerous times and it remains one of my favorites because it perfectly symbolizes the bond between myself, my cats, and the dining room table. I also love it because it gives me great memories of my beloved angel, Mr. Jazz…
Hmmm… and all along you thought I was managing Zee and Zoey’s blog. Turns out it is Mia and Peanut who are the actual editors. It must be 5:00 pm because Peanut is walking away and has called it a day!
Okay, clearly this is not the dining room table. It is one of the dining room chairs and so I felt it was appropriate to include it on the tour. Seen here is our sweet Peanut.
Look!! Another out of focus picture! How weird is it that I took it and not Dan?!! Anyhow, this about sums it up – my laptop computer, an issue of Cat Fancy, a chilled adult beverage and Zee sitting next to me!
Look at that leopard print chair! I want to buy one just like that!!
Francesca – that chair used to be a boring beige color – we reupholstered it – check out the post here all about it if you want! https://zeezoey.com/blog/upholstery-caturday/
They’re magnificent, as always.
I’m so glad to see the cats on the DR table. Makes me feel so much better. Mine adorn it often, and especially when I’m working from home.
The photos showing Mr. Jazz are so sweet. His spirit shines.
Peace…
