I have three cats. I also have 2 pet carriers.

The first carrier came with my first cat. It's huge and I have trouble hauling it around. Hard sided, too.

The second carrier is a smallish hard sided one but it is not all that great.

So, I decided to get a third carrier that I liked and I bought a Sherpa brand soft-sided one. I thought the kitties would be more comfortable in it.

The cats scatter when they see me bringing in a carrier from the garage. I was too lazy to move the new one into the garage so I left it in the computer room. Annie the Cat was around it a lot and picking at the mesh screens. So, I opened the door. It lays flat on the ground and the inside of the carrier has lamb's wool on the floor of it.

After that, for days, there was a mad dash among the 3 cats to see who would sleep in it. I've had the carrier for about a month and the dash to the bed is still going on.

My point is, well, I don't have one. I just get such a kick out of the things that cats love to do. They brighten my already bright life.

Beau used to hang in his cat stroller all the time, like it was his throne.

Jasper has been banished to the bathroom this week. Having workers at the house, I don't want him to get out. He is pissed! He does not have his bird window, or his sun window, or his queen size bed with comforter and blankets. His is not happy with the accomodations this week.

No, I wouldn't think he'd be pleased. My cat would yowl nonstop undet those conditions.

I have two carriers inside the house, and the cat(s) occasionally hang out in them.

Yes, I almost thought about boarding him, but a bathroom is larger than his "condo" would have been at the boarders. He meowed for about 15 minutes straight when I let him out today.

He is happy now, on his bed.

Better a little bit of complaining than a lost cat. He was completely declawed by his previous owner, so I am extra careful he does not get out.

I wonder how cats got the idea that we would like to see their butts up close.

One of mine is particularly bad about flashing it so close to my face.

They apparently like to see each others' butts up close, and figure we like to do the same?

Checkers -- who is a big butt sniffer -- had his nose at Cookie's butt for the nth time one day, and instead of running away from him, she just stopped dead so that his nose literally went up her butt. The look on his face was priceless! Of course, he didn't learn any lesson from that little encounter.

Grooming cats...every day after dinner, Jasper and I lay in bed watching tv, and I groom him, brush him, check his eyes for "crunchies", his ears, and wipe his nose off..yesterday, I wiped his nose, and a GIANT cat boogie came out, WTH? Where did that come from? Gross!

Atticus likes to be at my eye level when he displays his butt.

^^^^^^cute

My late Molly was so funny

We had the roofers here making so much noise and she did not like it she growled all day. After they were done with the job the roofers were across the street putting their roof on. Molly was staring at them out the window growling!

Those bad roofers!
