Vacation Photos #4

My bed, with a huge lump under the blanket.
Where’s Bluey? And where did that mysterious lump in the bed come from?

Underneath the blanket is Bluey the cat. Shocking.
Another mystery solved. I’ll be back next week. Probably. If I’m not, you’ll probably read about what I did on the news.

Vacation Photos #3

Bluey the cat asleep on my bed, stretched out so she's very long.
Bluey still seems so small, and yet when she stretches out…

The corner of my bed, with Peaches curled up asleep, barely visible beyond the quilt and pillow.
I spent ten minutes looking for Peaches before I realized she was tucked away in the corner of my bed.

Vacation Photos #2

My cats Peaches and Bluey sleeping on my bed.
There are Peaches and Bluey, doing the only activity they enjoy doing together: sleeping on my bed. Well, Bluey likes doing lots of activities, but they mostly involve jumping on Peaches’s head, and she’s not so fond of that.

The blue sky with a V of geese flying through.
Spotted these guys outside, honking as loud as they possibly could as they headed north. It’s probably too hot for them here.

Escape Artist

There’s a rip in the screen door.
Panel 1, Bluey the cat in front of the screen door, Panel 2, Bluey pushes her way through the rip in the door, Panel 3, Bluey sits outside, alarmed, and from inside I yell “Hey! Get back in here!”, Panel 4, Bluey jumps on to me as she realizes she’s scared of being outside, and I say, “Why do you keep trying to get outside? You hate it here!”
Bluey, foiled once again by the fact that she doesn’t have a single thought in her head.

Don’t Disturb The Nap

She’s mostly a sweet kitty, but god help you if you try to move her from her nap spot.
Panel 1, my cat Peaches is on my unmade bed, asleep, and I walk in, Panel 2, I say, “Okay, I want to make my bed. Time to move.” Panel 3, Peaches growls at me, Panel 4, I say, “Well, that seems like an overreaction.”
It’s quite rude, really.

Outside Cat

Bluey the cat thinks she wants to go outside.
Panel 1, Bluey the cat is scratching at the door like she wants to go out and I say, “Want to go outside, huh?” Panel 2, I put a cat harness on her, saying, “I know, you hate the harness. Well too bad.” panel 3, I take her outside and say, “Here you go! Outside!” Panel 4, she’s jumping on my head and I say, “Somehow I thought it might end up like this.”
She’s been inside her entire life, so I’m not surprised she doesn’t really like the outside. She also really doesn’t like the harness.

Helper

Bluey just appears when there’s a chance to be pesty.
Panel 1, I’m carrying laundry basket into the bedroom, panel 2, I’m bending down to take out the sheets in the laundry basket, Panel 3, I’m draping the sheet over the empty bed, Panel 4, a cat-shaped lump says “Mew?”, and I say, “Okay, where did you even come from?”
She zooms in from the other side of the house just to get in the way.

It’s A Butt

I just want to show you the best apple I’ve ever seen.

I laughed way too long at this one.

See? They’re getting along. Kind of. When Bluey isn’t leaping down on Peaches, at least.

Basket Of Fluff

Peaches refuses to be outdone by some newcomer.

She still sleeps like this all the time. I don’t get it.

Basket of fluff! I don’t know where the actual cat is in there.
 
More pictures next week since I’m not ready to come back yet!

Baby Blue

I have a new friend!!!

She’s so cute. And, as a kitten, very, very pesty. I made the mistake of asking my mom what to call her, and she suggested Bluey, and… the name stuck.

Here she is beating up my socks. Peaches is not thrilled that there is a new baby in the house. She says she’s supposed to be the baby.

Delicate Voice

This cat sounds like a siren going off.
Panel 1, I’m on the phone with my mom, and she says, “I think my Trixie is going deaf!” Panel 2, my mom at home with her cat, Trixie, sitting behind her, and from the phone I say, “What makes you think that?” Panel 3, Trixie lets out a deafening “MEOWWWWWW!!!!!!” that makes my mom jump, Panel 4, back to me, and my mom says, “Just a hunch.”

Thankfully I didn’t have to worry about this with my cat Veronica when she went deaf, as despite being a giant, fifteen pound ball of fur, Veronica could only ever muster a light trill when she meowed.

Fresh Water

A sequel to this comic. Not kidding, it took her about five seconds.
Panel 1, I’m carrying a glass of water when I see my cat in front of her empty water bowl, and I say, “Looks like you could use some fresh water.” Panel 2, I’ve put my glass on the table and am carrying the water bowl out, Panel 3, “FFFFFSSSSHHHHHH” from off screen as I fill the bowl, Panel 4, I put down a fresh bowl of water for my cat and say, “Here you go.” Panel 5, I turn to leave and go “Oop! My water!” Panel 5, I turn around and my cat already has her head in my glass instead of the fresh bowl of water she was just given.
It seems like she’s less interested in the freshness of the water than just stealing from me.

Thanksgivings Past #1

Comics this week since it’s the big holiday.
panel 1, 2002, me and my mom watching as our cat goes to town on the remains of our turkey, she says “I put the last of the turkey down for the kitty.” Panel 2, watching, panel 3, watching, then panel 4, I say, “Wow, he’s really going all in on it.”

He was such a good kitty. And he really, really liked turkey.

Water

She has two dishes of water to choose from that are both easier for her to reach.
Panel 1, I walk into a room holding a glass of water and see a trash bag on the ground and say Whoops, got to go take the trash out, Panel 2, the glass is on the table while I walk out with the trash, panel 3, just the glass on the table, Panel 4, my cat Peaches comes in the room, panel 5, I come back in the room and find Peaches has her head shoved in my glass and is lapping up the water, panel 6 is my horrified expression
Most of my horror is from wondering how often she’s done this and I haven’t seen.

Vacation Photos #4: Comfy

I can’t put up pictures and not have one of Peaches.
picture of my fluffy orange cat Peaches under a wooden chair, with her chin resting on the wooden bar between the legs
She loves resting under the chair in my bedroom, where I toss my winter coat when it’s not winter. She particularly loves sleeping with her neck on the bar, because that’s somehow comfortable for her.

After The Blizzard

Huh, I’m not actually in this one.


Jasper has not asked to go outside since then.

For reference, this is how deep it was a couple days after the blizzard:

Assault And Battery

I’m just trying to brush you so your fur doesn’t get mats!
I’ve never seen a cat get so mad at being brushed. Veronica never hit me!
