He’s hiding

It is a good thing he is cute.

Cat trap

Apparently round woven coasters are cat magnets.

The fourth paw is also on the coaster, just hidden behind the front paws. I’m not quite sure this is “if I fits I sits”, but it seems like it should be.

Doesn’t match

One of these things is not like the other.

I was a little surprised when I went to put the laundry bag back and Thor the cat was pretending to be laundry, sitting there as still as you please. He does a pretty good job for a 19 pound cat, but doesn’t quite fill the space. And he can’t hold many clothes.

Toe beans

Today I present toe beans because it is Friday and it has been a long week. Happy Incoming Weekend everyone!

Catio repair

On By CarynIn Cats

The wood I used for the top of the catio access, going from the house window to the enclosed space for the cats, rotted in the rain. I knew I had to address it, but when Thor the gray tabby ended up outside by his lonesome it became more urgent.

It is in my plan to get some clear material to go over the top to keep the rain out, but to make it secure in the meantime I replaced some of the wood then laid poultry wire over to keep the cats in. I had both the wood and wire, so didn’t have to make a trip to the hardware store.

The poultry wire is stapled to the wood, and wired to the hardware cloth, so the cats should be secure.
