Photo Friday: The Gang’s All Here


I don’t usually get a picture of all three boys in the same place. Usually, if I notice it, I will reach for my camera or phone and by the time I turn it on and focus, one of them decides it’s time to go. That is what happened last night. I was trying to help a Rose with a work project and all three were on the table helping me. As soon as I got my phone out, Frankie left.

Photo Friday: If Frankie Can’t Have Pizza, Nobody Can


I used to think that dogs were beggars, not cats, but that is not true. Our cats seem to want what we are eating no matter what. Often we have to let them smell it before they will back off but they are relentless when it comes to chicken and pizza. With pizza, it

It’s the cheese that they like so yes, I’m a sucker and pull off some cheese for the cats, but no bread. I have to draw the line somewhere.

Mother’s Little Helpers


My wife started a new job a few months ago that allows her to work from home a couple of days per week. The company provided her with a laptop and she had been working on a small table on our patio. The cats are all interested in “helping” her with her work, especially “Chris” who helps the most.

One day, Chris almost got fired when he dumped a full cup of tea on the laptop. It stopped working and Rose immediately took the battery out and let it dry for a day. When that didn’t work she brought it to a local computer shop who did nothing for several days and then said she needed a new mother board. Fortunately, I thought they seemed shady so we picked up the computer, brought it home and it worked, so Chris got to keep his job.

It didn’t take long before Rose realized that one table was not big enough for three cats and all her work so we bought a small desk and put it next to the table.

It seems that gold cats also have good luck to share.

I’m sure all you pet bloggers out there can relate to this.

More Needy Behavior.


I posted this almost two years ago to show how needy Chris could get. I was reminded of that at 4:30 this morning when Rose got up to use the bathroom and Chris and Puck ran into the bedroom. She didn’t have the energy to throw them out so she let them stay. Puck was good and lied on my nightstand but Chris would not stop annoying me with his biting, licking, scratching and whatever else he could think of. I put up with him for fifteen minutes and then I was forced to get up. He is now napping on my lap as I write this. Sorry but you may have to click through to the original to see the video.

Chris was being extra needy this morning and since I had my camera nearby, I thought I would video him for you. Enjoy.
