Aargh, I can not tell, if you´re joking or not!

And how do you know about a cat tongue´s roughness? Isn´t it mostly dogs, that insist on thoroughly licking people?

Let us not forget Stuff On My Cat.Com, where the cats almost always have this look on their face of either patient suffering or iminent murder. Some of those cats look like they're about to jump onto the photographer, latch onto hir throat, and start smacking them around for the insult.

I reckon there are two other possibilites: One is total and utter not-giving-a-fuck. Subtly different from patient suffering. The other is confusion, which is the one my parents' cat is most likely to give you - he's not vicious enough to attack, and he's not the brightest, so he'll just sit there and stare at you in disbelief.

And Mist, Isn't it mostly dogs, that insist on thoroughly licking people? - not if my parents' cat is anything to go by. He'll lick your hands/arms when he's being cuddled, and he'll sometimes lick the legs of people wearing shorts. Not "thoroughly", mind you. Just a bit, but the tongue is indeed very rough...

Now that you mention it, I remember once a cat licking my fingers, while I was at a friend´s appartment. We were sitting on the ground meditating, and the cat walked among us and licked our fingers (probably leeching off our prana , and the moment we got up, she sat down on my meditation pillow/blanket).

The parental cat may be pregnant, which means kitten joy.

Obviously I mean the cat who lives with my parents, not that I have a cat for a parent.

This is just a closeup, but he's really a huge cat. If you held him up on his hind feet, he'd probably be about half as long as you are tall.

Mistoffelees´ cat pick of the week

Every week I pick a cat pic and post it here. My choices will be unusual or otherwise interesting images of cats.


"Have at thee, , mangy cur!"

The medieval times were times of fighting dragons and saving princessesses (sp?), as we all know. Thus it was only natural, that well-off people were protecting their cats by having cat-armour custom-made.

The cat looks baleful and cuddly at one and the same time. Talented beast.

It´s hard to find cat related art that is not kitsch. Here´s some unkitsch cat artwork:

I had read that story, too. It´s the cat´s attitude that made the bear chicken out. He probably thought: "If the cat acts like that, although she´s twenty times smaller than me she must have something up her sleeve!"

Cats can be so patient! Some children have to take advantage of that. I disagree with that behaviour. Behold the terror of the Vulcan Mind Meld.

It´s some of those tattoos for children, that can be rubbed on and off, I guess.

I suddenly remembered a story from an old friend.

When she was a little girl, she liked ponies. But she had a cat called Felix. Now in the movies, the horses get a brand, so people see, what ranch they belong to. So in her childhood innocence, she picked up her pen and tattoed her cat´s ear. Even when the cat was very old and fat and she was in her midtwenties, her mother sometimes pointed at the spot on the cat´s ear and said: "Oh C., look Felix´s got a spot on his ear. I wonder what that might be!"

This week, we see a very old cat photo. Who knows, how many generations of this cat´s descendants have pawed our homes since then?

Possibly the most specialised cat pictures site yet found:

www.catsthatlooklikehitler.com

Distressingly, hitlercats.com was already registered. Does anyone dare investigate further?

There's something kind of wistful about Mrs. E. R. Pierce's pride and joy. It's a beautiful photo.

Plus he looks like Mr Disco's cat, Schnapps.

Can there be anything more tranquil and serene than a cat bathing in sunshine?



Yesterday evening btw, I saw a man parading his cat along the street like other people show off their cabriolets driving down the main street on a friday night.

His beautiful siam cat sat on his shoulder, taking in its surroundings with a mildly interested and inquisitive look on its very siam catly face.

After our very sad looking kitten, we now have the uplifting cat. Because it has solely sought refuge in the fridge, to surprise and delight its "owner" on detection.



I mean, let´s put the cards on the table for a second here:
no dog could ever get away with such an act ("bad dog"). The cat obviously knows the reaction ("poor cat got lost in the fridge again, of course it was hungry, aaaaww...") beforehand, and abuses this human weakness in cold blood as it is evolutionary trained to do.

And apparently it's a cat with opposable thumbs because it got into the bloody fridge.

That cat is my cat's hero.

No! They don´t need thumbs for raiding the fridge.

Example, my fridge:
It stands right next to my hearth. The cat would only need to lie down on the hearth, lock one or two of its hindlegs in the fridge grip and push push puuuush, and viola => open fridge day!

Kali, your cat needs to stop putting the pussy on a pedestal.
