Not necessarily to get me to cuddle, but Zoë does like to talk to me. She'll wander around and if she sees me she'll stop and yell something. She can also be insistent about me going to bed. Once I'm brushing my teeth, she'll get pushy because she can't take her place on the bed until I'm under the covers. And, dammit, we're on a schedule here, two-legs!

Re: Pets.
Pet-sitting for some friends for a few nights. This is Carlos Benedicto Pacifico Juan Maria Ramirez (known as Carlos) and Chestnut the three-legged cat. They are good company. In the photo, Carlos is laughing at my comparison of George Harrison to Alfonso Arau in the “Covering Album Covers” thread.

Re: Pets.
Very sad, those cats are domesticated pets, not born feral. They won't really be able to fend for themselves in the wild.revbob wrote: ↑05 Jun 2021, 4:40pmCat Island

Re: Pets.
Here's some cheerier cat content:
Gotta admire the balls on this mouse. Just pure taunting. The cat’s confused glance at the camera at 15 seconds is great, and at around 25 seconds the mouse hops around and gets right in the cat’s face like “whaddya gonna do about it?”

I would be willing to bet our 3 indoor cats wouldn't do much better. Very attentive to moving toys stimulus, but too naive and well fed to equate hunting and eating I'm afraid.

Re: Pets.
We've taken to start calling Zoë Hank Hill because, while basically thin, she has a hangy belly like all older cats get, but especially because when she stands on her back legs, she has no butt at all (especially compared to her sister, who has a more pronounced butt because she's fluffy). Plus she's tried to sell me on the Wagner Char-King.

It's like another animal lying on the table.

And that other animal only exists in myth.
