Stages of Feline Affection

Image 2021-05-01 Miss Poison Caturday, Images/Photos/Quotes Cat and Kitten, Cat Humor, Caturday, Images/Photos/Quotes

One tried to throw me out of bed this morning by jumping on my head and then marking my entire body, as though I am the official leader of the cat pack. The other one ignores me, unless I come bearing treats. I'm still wearing her scars from a few weeks back. It's easy to … Continue reading Stages of Feline Affection

Cats Are Life

It's been a rough week. At times, Kitten was my saving grace, curling up next to me to sleep and keep an eye on me. When I rested after my procedure, she didn't disturb me, as she is wont to do. She often jumps up at my head and scares the shit out of me … Continue reading Cats Are Life

Sedate Me

2021-04-102021-04-11 Miss Poison Writing Cat and Kitten, Caturday, Pieces Of Me, Poison In Lethal Doses, Writing

Yes, I'm still writing. Yes, I am still reading (Check out my Goodreads challenge. I've read 111 books, so far. Crazy, right? Research pays off!). But for the next few weeks, I think I need to take it easy. Today I took Cat and Kitten to the vet. I was already stressed out and barely … Continue reading Sedate Me

First Caturday of February

Image 2021-02-062021-02-06 Miss Poison Caturday, February Cat and Kitten, Caturday, February, Images/Photos/Quotes, Life With Cats

I laugh because my cats stand like statues a lot, and would try this if I hadn't trained them as kittens not to get onto the kitchen counters or the dining room table. I freak out if they're anywhere near the stove, so they seem to remember my reaction, unless they're trying to test me, … Continue reading First Caturday of February

Etiquette

I'm highly impressed with the cat's posture. Little feet on the plate... I can't stop laughing. For the record, I trained my cats, as kittens, NOT to go on the dining room table or the kitchen counters, and they're generally good about listening because I made it a mandatory thing. Occasionally, I'll catch them testing … Continue reading Etiquette

Ungrateful Caturday

2021-01-16 Miss Poison Caturday Cat and Kitten, Cats, Caturday, January, Life With Cats, Musings

My cats have decided I'm merely a person who feeds them and rewards them for existing with expensive treats, which they think they should receive every few hours, so long as I'm working and they can annoy me. And they've taken to jumping on my head and screeching if they aren't fed by 8:00 a.m. … Continue reading Ungrateful Caturday

How Cats Improve Mental Health

To be fair, my cats judge me. That's how PetSmart gets extra business.

Caturday Antics

This is my life these days. Kitten thinks I need to be reminded about her breakfast. She'll start harassing me, first with affection and sweetness, and the next thing I know she's walking on top of me like I'm her personal furniture. I can't wait until the vet can cut her nails. She's on my … Continue reading Caturday Antics
