Welcome Home and Goodbye

Welcome home to three weary travelers. I think the cats are going to be very happy to see you.


Now think of me as another traveler. I'm this little orange man waving goodbye while Tchaikovsky recites:

"The untold want, by life and land ne'er granted.
Now, Voyager, sail thou forth, to seek and find."

Housecat with House Plants

Zombie cat

Compare the tidy neatness of this cat's shape with the slyly ravenous-for-human-flesh look on his face.

Fire breathing cat

That chess piece is a knight attempting to control a rearing horse, which means Tchaikovsky is the slightly goofy dragon pursuing them.

Modest cat exploring some boxes

Sleeping stripes

It must be comfortable to be a cat.

One of the last days of fall.

Cool Whip Cat

This image is dedicated to everyone who thinks whipped cream and frosting are actual foods.

Cat present

This is the kind of gift I like to wrap in a layer of newspaper and bury.

Sailing for adventure on the big blue wet-thing.

Doesn't he look like he's pulling his life raft to shore? Fortunately he was only marooned outside the bedroom door.

Cats watching TV

Snuggling

It's hard work, and I take it seriously.

Not to brag...

Cats can't hide from me. I always find 'em.

Behold My Power

Here is Tchaikovsky, a descendant of Shere Khan himself--one of the most villainous jungle cats in Disney history:

Here he is moments later--reduced to a helpless mass of purring stripes:

Cat question

Hmm. What's this thing that feels so good when you run it through my fur?

Cat cloud

See how Zeus's eyes peek out from between tufts of fur? He looks like an innocent cloud floating by on a gray day.

Accidental discovery

Do you know what surprises and alarms cats? When you hop towards them on one foot.

I've always thought Mozart needed more healthy surprises in his life.
