I iz obedient. I playz ded. See, my tongue is hanging out and everything.
Silly dog, THIS is how stick your tongue out!
That’s soooooo wrong.
We are not amused. Okay, maybe a little…
With thanks to pets of Castle Gaiman for their help.
Here come da sun, and I say…
Hide! It’s going to get us!
You are soooo weird, the sun is our warm happy friend.
Black cat sees no sun. Black cat needs no sun.
I thought thumb-monkey was our warm happy friend, and soon I will reach the summit!
Move the food closer thumb-monkey, my feet are cold.
Ooh, excellent plan. Bring me my dinner thumb-monkey!
And then, dance for me! Dance thumb-monkey, dance!
I am so embarrassed for you all…but I do kind of want to see the thumb-monkey dance.
I have seen the thumb-monkeys dance. You do NOT want to see it.
YOU are NOT my thumb-monkey, and I do NOT want dancing with my dinner.
I am noble cat! Take my photo thumb-monkey. Make me as famous as I deserve.
Stupid thumb-monkey gave me a pill…though he did feed me. So I guess he’ll do.
Cats, why did it have to be cats?

It is the east and Juliet, the sun…and she’s way too bright.
I am round like the sun, but not as bright…
I’m a dog.

That was my dog.
I like dogs…they are almost as delicious as my feet.
Call me TOOTHLESS!
Where’s the mute button…
I think I found the mute…

Soggy doggy has no mute button. Soggy doggy needs no mute button.
Hey, Thumb-Monkey, why you mucking around with cat blogging and not petting me?
Last night the world lost a big glorious goofball of a cat. My dear friend Scott Lynch’s cat Muse died suddenly and unexpectedly at home. As those of you who follow me on social media or read Friday Cat Blogging know, we had the pleasure to play surrogate monkey for Muse, aka Giant War Cat to my readers, for nearly two months this summer. We will miss him enormously and we’re heartbroken for Scott and his other person, Elizabeth Bear. I haven’t the heart to write any more, so I will say goodbye to him in pictures.
This was the first time I met him.
He had a ten minute staring contest with the concrete cat.
I’m going to miss him.
With Scott in our living room.
I uses standing desk for works too!
You know you’re a cat right? We don’t work.
But wooly bears do! Right?
Random wooly bear is confuzling. Also, possible sign of fall. Not good.
Quick, must get in extra sleeps on porch.
The McCullough cat are super weird.
But my nose is delicious, that’s something, right?
