World Cat Day

 Happy World Cat Day!  I thought I would celebrate the day by carrying my camera around with me and taking pictures of how having cats in my life has made things more interesting.

 Spyro helped me make up my bed.

 Rocio helped me with my email this morning.  Sorry about the poor quality of the photo.  My hands must have shaken more than the anti-shake stabilizer could handle.

 Oja helped me pick which mah jong puzzle to work on this evening.  Sorry it's too dark to see her properly.

 Bambino inspected my breakfast to make sure it was good enough for me.

 Spyro loves to help me read the newspaper.

 Opening the screen door is always and adventure.  Spyro is looking out to see that there are no vishus deer or bears waiting for me.

 Anyone can have regular tp.  I have lacy tp thanks to Rocio.

 I never know what will be waiting for me in the hall.  This time it was Bambino and Horus rasslin'.

 Rocio helped me fold my laundry.

 Spyro made sure that the towels were folded and put away just right, with Rocio snoopervising.

 Horus led me on an inspection of my now gopher-free yard.  The gophers just got to be too much, so the whole block got together and called in the exterminator.  I don't like killing creatures, but these gophers ate my sage, leeks, cilantro, chives, daisies, California poppies, nearly killed my lilac bush and made big bald spots in the grass.  Spyro watched Horus go out on the harness and leash and made piteous meows, but wouldn't let me put the harness on him.  I have ordered Spyro a new and different type of harness, so maybe he will get to go out again.

One of the best times of the day is relaxing before dinner time.  Horus just loves Da Bird.  That's Spyro in the play pen.  Rocio joined in after a while.  Bambino and Spyro just watched.  Oja was in the computer room, where she spends most of her time.  I hope you enjoyed seeing what my day with cats is like.
