Attempts in black and white

Spent ten minutes lying down on the floor of my balcony bugging Mew and Chewie today... My neighbors must think I've finally lost it completely!

I'm pleased with the results, though :)

Yawning Central (i.e. You Boring Camera-Wielding Human)

I'm with you, girl!

This what Chewie thinks "helping your human focus on work" means... How am I supposed to refrain both from fondling that paw, and from grabbing my camera every two minutes to try and capture the cuteness?! Eh?!



Needless to say the translation didn't go too fast, that day :p

Soon

Soon... I'll get my life back. Hopefully.
For now, all my free time is being consumed by my brain-hungry translation, and trying to deal with crazy California heat. Stupid state, I WANT RAIN! RAIN! RAIN! NOW!

No kitty pictures today. I have a few that might turn out neat, but I'm too pooped to put them on right now... so tomorrow or over the weekend.

Hope everyone is well and enjoying themselves.
Spéciale dédicace Ben: j'attends toujours ton démarrage de blog, de pied ferme!!

Don't ask me...

... why cats are such weird animals.

Look at Mew. She looks perfectly normal, just yawning at the perspective of a very long day made of naps and fly-chasing and staring down other cats from the balcony. So normal.

But can a cat really be normal?

Nope.

Normal things cats do that humans find odd... the start of a very long series!!

Odd Behavior #1 : Biting your toenails.

With gusto. Repeatedly. Til human begins to feel worried and checks paws, expecting to find mangled stumps instead of perfectly normal toes.

Odd Behavior #2 : Chewing on windows.

Preferably freshly painted.

Vigorous and systematic shooing away was ignored, as were my numerous lectures on the toxicity of cheap paint used by cheap owner to resfresh this particular window. Luckily, the feline rebel consented to compromise and just rub against the paint without eating it. Phew.

To be continued... very soon!
Feel free to contribute ;)

Non-cooperative cats

Chewie and Wicket have decided that passive resistance was the best weapon against their camera-wielding human... They now officially fall asleep as soon as they see the dreaded Nikon, and totally refuse to cooperate. From kitty to heap of soft, purring fur...

It's already hard to get good shots of a black cat in a dark apartment... Chewie is not making it any easier!!

- Hmmmm? Did you just say sum'fin?
