You Called?

When’s dinner?

[Editor: Excise [X-Size needs to do some Xercise] decided to pose at the best possible time at the best possible place just as I was taking the camera out for a feral cat picture hunt during the early afternoon.

In Memoriam

Rook had to say goodbye to his brown tabby, Quiz, this week.

Gentleman at Leisure

What, hmmm …

[Editor: Sox lazing on my bathrobe in the chair shows a couple of the problems I need to address with the camera. The room light is yellow as it is all indirect and coming off of beige paint, and his pupils are so expanded that you can't see the eye color. I may need a spotlight to get the colors right, but the camera works in low light.

Soaking Up The Rays

Warmth again …

[Editor: This is a better shot of Underhouse in the late afternoon sun. We've had frequent cold fronts move through, and Wednesday night's storm featured a thunderstorm.

En Garde!

What was that?

[Editor: Lucrezia scans for trouble as she takes in the afternoon sun. When you have been as nasty as she is, this is a reasonable precaution.

The Eyes Have It

Are you serious?

[Editor: Property didn't believe I could take a picture of her without a flash, which previously allowed her to close her eyes.

A ‘Mug’ Shot

You looking at me?

[Editor: Toes Underhouse - the mouthiest cat in the area. When he senses food, he starts meowing and only stops to eat.

Always update to the latest version of maps before setting out on long trips, or you might have to stop and ask for directions.

The New Guy … Again

What are you up to?

[Editor: A much better view of the 'New Guy' from the beginning of the month. Very Festivus festive as Blaze is just out of the frame and may be preparing to "air some grievances".

New Camera

Where’s the flash?

[Editor: Excise is wondering why there was no blinding light, and the reason is that I have made the mostly unjustified acquisition of a Nikon S9100 that doesn't need to use the flash as often as my former camera.

Dot April, 1998 – December, 2011

My first picture of her on the blog, and the best picture of her large golden eyes and pink nose, which were often the first things I saw in the morning.

New Guy?

Just resting … really

[Editor: While I have seen him before, this is the first picture of another cat who is stopping by to eat lately. I assume that like The Big Tipper, he was abandoned when his family had to leave.

Heat!

Is that really the sun?

[Editor: Ringo has found a sunny spot in the driveway and has no intention of giving it up.

Chilling

Where’s the sun?

[Editor: Tonto is at her favorite sunny spot, but the sun is behind the total overcast of this week's cold front. She and I are both feeling the North wind, which is why this has been so delayed.

Candlelight Dining

Nom…nom…nom…

[Editor: Lucrezia chows down in the darkness caused by the clouds at twilight. A cold front moved through and things are getting brisk.
