Frankie loves to go out for a walk, but he also loves taking a break and relaxing while I check the time and wonder when we can move again.

Throwback Thursday: Making Homemade Raw Cat Food
Here is a post from July of 2016. I still make the same homemade food but only give it to them for breakfast. I give them canned food for lunch and dinner. I learned that too much of the same thing means they won’t eat it. I also learned that they won’t eat anything but chicken. Even turkey is a no,
Photo Friday: Cats at Work
I now work for an aquarium maintenance service. The business is run out of my boss’s home. I show up there at 6:15 in the morning four days a week. Earlier I introduced you to Bill, who is almost always on the pool table ready to greet me. There are also two other cats there, Sampson and Delilah, who are siblings.
Bill was happy to see me the first day we met. Sampson was a bit shy, and it took him a month or two to warm up to me. Now he waits for me outside and greets me when I get out of my car. Delilah took about six months to warm up to me. She is now happy to get pets from me, but she doesn’t yet seek me out.
Throwback Thursday: Can’t You See I’m Starving?
This is a post from July of 2016. Chris wore me down and I gave up on weaning him off dry food. I try to keep it to a minimum, but he still gets his kibble.
A Good Morning
Good morning, everyone. I hope your day is going as good as Frankie’s. He started out this morning rolling around on the dining room table. Actually, he started by knocking my coffee off the table, but the point is, he was a happy kitty.
That was followed by a nice walk where he got to see at least four dogs and a squirrel.
It doesn’t get much better than that.

Here is Floki and Chris Tuesday evening. As usual, Chris is using another cat as a pillow.

Here is a post from July of 2016 When Floki was still a kitten.
Encounter With Peacocks
While on a walk with Frankie this morning we encountered a group of Peacocks.
I looked up the name for a group of Peacocks and were presented with multiple choices. My favorite was a ostentation, but they can also be called a pride, muster, or party. I also learned that a group of female peacocks, or fowls in general, would be called a bevy. I believe these were all female.
Frankie was remarkably calm, although I did have to restrain him once.
Photo Friday: Our One Egret
I’ve had a few regrets in my life but only one egret. This one hung around our house for a couple of years. I think the people that lived there before us might have fed him. We rarely gave him anything but he, or she, kept coming around.
The above photo was taken nine years ago yesterday. It is Puck and Frankie both wishing they could go outside. Chris was there too.
New Cat Bed Plus Free Books
Considering that all of or cats, especially Chris, like to get under the covers on our bed, I thought they would like their own bed with a cover on it so I picked one up about a week ago.
Floki took to it right away. Surprisingly, Chris waited his turn like a gentlecat.
I’ve seen Frankie in there too, but Chris forced him out before I could take a picture.
On another note, my books, Bad Cat Chris and Falling Star will be free in the eBook format today only on Amazon. My other two books, Identity Crisis and The Last Healer, will be 75% off on Smashwords through March 9. If anyone would like to help me by reviewing one of my books, I will appreciate it. I recommend checking out The Last Healer for $1.24 because I am currently writing a sequel to it.
