If I had a Roomba, I think my cats would do this.

Two bits of awesome

Two things happened simultaneously.

I read this post. That is the funniest thing I've seen in AGES.

As I was recovering from the hilarity, I looked over and saw the Little Pirate in the baby swing we just got for him, snoozing away. Snuggles (one of the cats) walked up with a very concerned look on his face, and tried to look into the swing as it was going down, but he misjudged it and got smacked in the face when it came back up....and ran away. It was great.

Baby 1, Cat 0

Snuggles is a big cat (no I wasn't the one that named him, but it's apt enough). He's cute, but he's not the brightest cat, either. He got his first taste of what's in store for all five of our cats last night when he was lying in one of his favorite spots across Red's belly. My little pirate booted him in the chest, and of course he looked up at Red with this very puzzled "What the fuck?" face. She told him, "Wasn't me, dude, I didn't do it."

He didn't take the hint the first time, but after getting nailed a couple of times more, I think he decided that this particular mattress had too much attitude and too many lumps, because he got up and sat at Red's feet giving her dirty looks.

Okay, now that I got that last post out of my system, it's time for Cat Blogging!

Here's Snuggles again, this time all grown up. He always sleeps like that - Red says he's just like me that way, but I think she's lying.

This is Snuggles (named by my 7-yr-old) from about a year ago. I am occasionally designated as his Person, but most of the time he's inseparable from my 10 yr old.

There will be further random cat-blogging as time goes by, just thought I'd kick it off right.
