One of my favorite political bloggers (John Aravosis over at AmericaBlog) loves animals so much that he now has a whole section of his website devoted to pets. Just like Kelly and me, he often talks about the latest goings-on of his own animal companion and those of his friends on the blog.
Recently, he put up a post discussing the phenomenon of cats that act like dogs. And he included a video.
Every so often there is an internet cat meme that I just really, ridiculously love. Grumpy Cat just makes me ridiculously happy. I think she might be my totem animal.
You can imagine then that I was forced to stop in the freezing cold the other day and take these photos.

Because if there is one thing that the Internet needs, it’s more pictures of cats doing silly things. These are from when Scratch was still in his “Ooo, it’s that special holiday cat perch! Just for me!” phase.
Normally Geoff and I spend an inordinate amount of time each November and December writing, signing, stamping, and mailing Christmas cards. We usually send out about 100.
Not this year.
The fact that Geoff and I are low on funds is no secret. Many of our friends have commented on the fact that they haven’t seen a lot of us in the last few months. The is partly due to the fact that we don’t have the money to go out and do things and partly due to the fact that we don’t have the time.
So, we take our fun where we can find it.
A couple weeks ago Geoff and I were at Amanda’s place. Her kitties are photo-shy on a good day, but I managed to snap a few photos with my phone that were decent. We can always use more photos of beautiful animals in the world.

As the weather grows cooler, Kelly and I can always tell the nights it is getting really cold because we will suddenly see more animals at bedtime. Rerun and Thumbelina are always with us, but as the temperature outside drops we start seeing Scratch curl up with us at bedtime. The last animal to join in is Bucky, and so when we see him it usually means the temperature is going below freezing. But it also means we get to see lots of cuddling little kittehs and puppehs, like this shot of little Scratchling.
Kitteh photos always make things better.

This is Bruce.
He’s in Florida and he needs a new home. There are more details about him here. There is one potential adopter located here in MA, but that would require a creative and rather long transport.
If you’re interested in adopting Bruce, the foster Mom, Colleen, can be reached through the link above.
Thanks!

That means that it’s time to save a life.
No, not Black Cat Awareness Month, Black Cat Appreciation Month. Just ask Geoff how much he likes the phrase “raising awareness“. Go ahead ask him, I’ll wait.
