Carnival of the Cats #158

...is up at IMAO.

It actually went up on April Fool's Day, but that's a religious holiday for me; I don't blog.

Carnival of the Cats #154

Tacjammer's got the 154th Carnival of the Cats:

In this 154th edition of the Carnival of the Cats, we take particular notice that even though the US presidential elections are well over a year away, there are more candidates of every faction or stripe than one can shake a stick at, running like the polls open next week.

Stupid humans.*

Cats, too, have issues they feel strongly about... though they aren't quite in such a hurry to be on the hustings. Today, we'll be examining topics of concern to the feline population, and the various positions cats take on the matters at hand.

Gato the Mountaineer

Where's Mister Gato?

Way up high.

An Entirely Too Comfortable Cat
Cat is topmost object in frame.

He's resting up to host the Carnival of the Cats, this Sunday, January 21, at enrevanche! Be sure to come by and visit us Sunday evening... and today, be sure to check out the Friday Ark at The Modulator's place.

(To submit your catblogging entry to the Carnival, use the Multi-Carnival Submission Form! Thanks.)

Gato in the High Castle


Mister Gato, above it all on a little stack of boxes (on top of a bookcase in the living room, a detail missing from the shot.)

Coming soon to enrevanche: Gato speaks! (and moves.) Full-motion video catblogging with audio. Be afraid, be very afraid.

Be sure to check out The Modulator's Friday Ark today, and this Sunday, the Carnival of the Cats is at Pet's Garden Blog.

(Sunday, January 21, the Carnival of the Cats returns to enrevanche!)

Wouldn't a parrot be more traditional?

Mister Gato, in the years we've known him (amazingly, coming up on three now) has never been a lap-cat. He will walk across laps, stand in your lap briefly for a head-scratch, and happily sit next to you on the couch, but he has absolutely no interest in actually sitting in your lap.

He's a shoulder cat. And if you're willing to hold him, he'll perch on your shoulder all day long, purring away.

And perhaps grooming you a bit (see photo below; tongue actual size):

Mister Tongue Scaled
My ears are, if not quite burning, actually very warm.

(The sanguine appearance of my left ear is due to having just been thoroughly washed by Mister G, which is a bit like getting an affectionate rubdown with wet 00 sandpaper.)

Be sure to check out The Modulator's Friday Ark today, and don't miss the Carnival of the Cats this Sunday, at the House of Mostly Black Cats.

Mister G. and the entire enrevanche household send their sincerest condolences to Laurence Simon at TBIFOC, the Head Wrangler of the Carnival of the Cats. The lovely and talented Piper passed away quite unexpectedly this week.
