In between cuddling and fighting we can sleep!

Your babies are so CUTE and so different. What a handsome pair of brothers.

The Cuteness Quotient of that image is of dangerous proportions. I suggest making them some disturbing little masks to wear for safety reasons.

Ditto on Alex’ super funny comment! Those two are absolute darlings! The black and white one looks like our Maine Coon who does the exact same pose. Does he curl his toes, too?

Wow, I could pet these little cuties beautiful fur-ever. I love absolutely how it clumps together in sweet little chunks of redonkulously awesome softness. I would pet my screen, but previous attempts at such only proved to be disappointing. I cant wait till real touch screen computerized monitors. Then i could pet all sorts of kitties all day long!

Here is a great link! It’s for a free bag of Greenies cat or dog treats—they will give you up to three bags–if you have a multiple pet household. I got mine on Saturday. It’s a 3 oz. bag—worth $5.99!

*The Way to a Woman’s Heart is Through Her Cat*
By Glenda Moore
So, you’re dating a gal who shares her residence with a cat. If your relationship is going to get anywhere, I encourage you to follow each of these suggestions (note - when I read these to Bob and asked him if he thought any of them were funny, he said, “No, I think they are all perfectly accurate.”):
Never, ever mention that you can (or can’t) smell the litterbox.
If the kitten wants to spend an hour untying your shoelace, let him. When he gets it untied, retie it so he can continue playing.
Never make a big show of brushing the cat fur from your slacks.
Get in the habit of putting a couple of sardines in your pocket - slip them to the cat when she isn’t watching. (Note: you may have to do this through the entire dating period, because the cat will likely go for your pocket each time you visit.)
Don’t push the cat off the sofa if he’s inserted himself between the two of you.
If he’s still sitting between the two of you when you get amorous, reassure him (mental telepathy is fine) that you have no harmful intentions against his companion, and move him gently to your lap. Try to keep one hand stroking the cat at all times in this situation.
If you’re spending the night, do yourself a favor and don’t even TRY to sleep in the cat’s favorite spot on the bed.
When you phone her, ask about her cat.
When she leaves the room to fix cocktails or check on dinner, ask her if she’s got a cat toy handy so you can keep the cat entertained.
If you’re taking her out to dinner, ask her if it’s okay to bring home a “cat bag” of leftovers for the cat.

They’re so adorable and I’m so envious. I’ve had two lovely long-haired cats from the time they were six weeks old and they were so affectionate with each other…until we started bringing more cats into the house. Now they each wish they were an only child. So sad.

Here’s a link to a beautifully written article by Jon Katz (Why I Own Donkeys)—-I posted another great article written by him (A Dog Man Gets a Cat) a couple months ago….

Loved the story by Katz….Now I want a donkey (help me), but believe it or not, although I live in Iowa I live on a farm. Once I read the article it dawned on me that I don’t see donkeys anymore, used to, but no longer…
Plus, I read Get Fuzzy everyday…in our local newspaper (which supplies most of those nasty rubber bands that our kitties love so much)

Sorry to be “link crazy” today, but here’s a link for my favorite comic strip–Get Fuzzy. Sunday’s strip was really funny. And yesterday and today, he’s getting help with his rubber band addiction!

Get Fuzzy is one of my favorites as well… i realy liked the ones when Bucky kept sneaking up on Satchel and saying “booger”..

Merry and Pippin’s description of themselves after the Ents took down Orthanc?

Comment by Arcalian
2006-07-19 03:40:52

That was the name of the chapter where they were reunited with Aragorn/Gimli/Legolas after the fall of Orthanc, yes.

Great picture! Made me laugh as soon as it came on the screen. Isn’t it funny how one minute cats can play, sleep with and even groom each other, then the next they’re chasing each other til one decides to paw and nip the other? All in the name of love.

To #31…. I swear I married my hubby because when he met my gray tabby he picked her up, snuggled her fur and talked baby talk to her. What a man!
