The cats are making a special appearance this morning, carefully set up to appear online on Friday morning, although Meda and I were scheduled to arrive in San Franisco the day before.
This is my favorite of the week. It’s a scene played out daily as dinner is served! I usually split a small can of Fancy Feast grilled cat food among the four cats. It’s just a taste, not a full meal, but followed with a scoop of TD Dental Diet dry food for each of them.
In this photo, you see Kali, Bessie, and Kinikini licking their dishes clean, while Kiko has already exited the scene, with just her rear end visible leaps to the floor.
It is about the only time all the cats gather in one place.
Yes, I know. A good friend was here on a recent night and announced that her cat would NEVER be on the counter. “It’s not allowed,” she said.
We know all the arguments. But we lost that battle nearly 57 years ago when our first pair of indoor cats defeated our counter-top defenses and asserted their right to these exposed territories. And that’s the way it’s been since. Agree or disagree, it doesn’t matter. That’s just the way it is.
And enjoy the rest of the photos below! It will be a while before I’m able to most new photos of the cats, as we’ll be away from home what what could be a couple of months.
