It’s that time again, Caturday! And don’t duck out from reading the blog tomorrow; I’ll have some exciting news then. Stay tuned!
Lots of pics this week. I usually aim for about 20, but today we have 31. Including some new visitors.
But first, some cuteness:
This may be a little hard to see, but there’s a cat climbing a pole in the background (and one eating):
The gray alien cat:
Stretch!
A screenshot of my iPad, showing cats on all four cameras: Pansy in the shop, and some outdoor cats:
A non-cam photo of the cat house. You an see the outdoor cam housed in a stack of concrete blocks on the left (one day I want to make a nicer enclosure, but this works):
Another angle, looking from the path by the bird feeders to the cat house, with the white gazebo and pond deck in the background:
Closer to the cat house. I really wish the two signs were more readable from a distance; I’ve thought about painting the lettering. They say “Cat House Saloon” for the shelter side, and “Mercantile” for the feeder side:
Double-decker cats (Porcini on the awning, Poppy on the deck):
Pippin is fascinated by the cats on my iPad:
With the big and small ponds frozen, birds have been taking advantage of the heated water dish (when the cats are elsewhere):
Poppy:
More snuggles:
A daytime screenshot of my iPad, showing Pansy in the shop and others. I really gotta put her on a diet:
What’s this? More snuggles! How shocking:
All five cats inside:
Breakfast queue:
Me refilling the heated water dish. Since the garden taps are disabled for the winter, I bring out a bottle of water (a reused creamer bottle) to flush and refill the dish:
A couple of cats watch as a possum walks by:
Porcini looking at the camera inside:
And her outside:
The alien gray cat ventured into the shelter:
Here he’s coming out:
A bird having a bath in the heated water dish:
Doesn’t want to share:
A couple of smaller birds (sorry, I’m no good at recognizing species):
Porcini the burrito:
Rolling over on the edge… this isn’t going to end well:
Saw that coming; everybody freaked out:
The gray alien again; pretty sure he lives north of us somewhere:
Porcini again:
That’s it for this week! What do you think; too many photos? Would you prefer I limit it to around 20 as usual, or the more the merrier?
