We have another miss on the litterbox, this one in the closet. Two misses actually, and different texture. Two cats? We don't know.

Cat nap friendlier office

As a professional programmer, I type hard and long. I also like a consistent feel, so I only generally use descendants of the original heavy duty IBM PS/2 keyboard. Unfortunately, these mechanical devices have noisy keys, which disturbs my officemates.

So last night I swapped in quieter version of my keyboard. Maybe this way my officemates will hang around longer.

Clean Up in Aisle 4

A litterbox was missed, and when the containment crew headed by Katherine arrived, Whitey was trying to a dig a hole in the floor. Until CSI reports in (they never got back to us last time, in fact), we'll assume he was cleaning up after himself.

Photo Friday: Rubber Cat

While Emily can be a little high strung, but when she wants to, she relaxes completely.

Look What the Cat Dragged Up

Someone left the basement unlatched, and something with four paws and tiger stripes went exploring. (Emily wouldn't lower herself to go down in the basement).

The result when we got home was a black blob which had been dragged up from the basement and dropped in the front hall. Hopefully the care taker of it didn't eat it or other thing poisonous during their adventure...

Weekend Photo Extra: Meet the Family

The boys' Aunt Margaret sent along pictures of their cousins Izzy (on the left) and Maynard (on the right). Izzy has appeared here before, but Maynard was too shy to have his picture taken that day.

Emily's Holiday Stench

Another weekend, another case of Emily throwing up water just before dinner.
