Hurrah for “die wortlose Mittwoch”! Two weeks ago I had to deal with Woden or Odin’s day ie. wordless Wednesday. Today I can deal with the German day “Midweek”. That makes sense! I still haven’t got the wordless or wortlos part down yet–maybe next time. Anyway, Zeke is not allowed to play with plastic bags or even bags with handles, which can be hazardous, but paper bags are allowed.

This post documents the return of the Ghost Cat by way of a spirit orb. This is the first sighting since July 2011! I saved this post for today–International Cat Day.
What is a spirit orb?
Cat blitz week continues with my two cats Zeke and Opie.
Long shadows mean early morning breakfast. Marigold is sleeping in.
I think it is time to put up another stereoview from my collection. Not much is happening with my cats at the moment. This particular card is not rare at all. Views of children and their pets were popular subjects. This particular card is copyrighted in 1905 by the card publishing giant Underwood & Underwood in the USA.
Entering the gates of Sleepy Land
The photograph is not a snapshot. I am sorry to say that the photograph is posed in a photographic studio. The little girl is not asleep really, as you may be able to tell by the grip she has on the cat with her hand. The cat looks more like he is purring than sleeping. I will say that the cat has a very familiar face. I bet he is orange. What do you think? He has probably run through his nine lives by now. The little girl is probably 110 years old, more or less.

Marigold is very helpful when assembling a picture puzzle, just like all cats.
Marigold contemplates her next move!
Why put a puzzle together upon the floor?
