Squirrel! We’re gonna need to stage a raid!
About that…
Here’s my plan.
Dude, that’s just wrong.
No, that’s war, baby!
Clever…
I’m afraid of giant birds.
Who isn’t?
Me. I kill them with fire and then eat them roasted.
With thanks to Matt and Mandy for the spare cats and Matt’s raid art.

Monday Meows Cat Blogging: Remembering Pippin
July 3, 2018 in Cat Things, Friday Cat Blogging, Pets and other friends
Those of you who have been following my cat blogging for a while know that in addition to our own floofs, we have a few recurring guest cats. Sadly one of our frequent fuzzy friends has passed from this world. Pippin was a big fluffy powder puff who was much adored by his humans, Matt and Mandy. He was generally much less impressed with me, but that was because we most often interacted when I was playing substitute human while Matt and Mandy were off having adventures, and I was hardly adequate compensation for the lost time with his loved ones. I’ll miss him.
This is the 1st picture from the 1st time I cat sat. He was not impressed.
That was a theme.
Though, he liked Laura well enough when she was available
Here he is with his “brother” and age mate, Birkie.
And his baby “sister” Trilly.
Mostly I saw him like this.
He loved his food.
Even to the point of tolerating indignity for treats.
This is one of the last pictures I took of him after he’d slowed a bit.
Dignity in all things.
And my favorite picture of him.
Goodbye, Pippin, I’m glad I got to know you. (More pics follow)
But I’m out of heart for captions.

I finded a rafter!
I like rafters!
Not this again.
What the hell are you all on about?
Wait, I’ve never seen that cat before in my life.
Are my thumb-monkeys seeing other cats?!
It’s not just cats, mate.
I’m so disillusioned!
There there, lil, buddy, it’ll be all right.
You will rise from the ashes of disappointment like melon phoenix!
What in the name of all that is fuzzy is that?!
Melon phoenix, duh!
Okay, I’m out. Yeah, me too.

Sheep wreck? Think of all that wool! And the static!

Is this psychedelic, or is it just me and the mushrooms?
Dude, step away from the hallucinogens
I don’t think it’s just him…
Guys, it’s definitely not not real…I think.
Halp, I’m trapped in someone else’s hallucination!
It’s just a big fabric thingie. Chill. Have a drink and…what’s that?!
A big fabric thingie, duh!
Oh, hell no!
Why? I think I’m in love…

Fiends, morons, contrarymen, I come to salad Caesar not to braise him
I love this speech!
I can’t take any more, I’m going over the wall, man.
Fly you fools!
Hey, if I mount the rostra, will I be inspired too?
I’m afraid not little buddy, alas. It takes true inspiration to emote.
Bummer.
