Happy Birthday Zeke (8)

Happy birthday Zeke! You are 8 today! You are an old senior cat but you do not seem like one of those old timers! We shall look back at a few of your old photos on your special day. First, a few facts about you:

Zeke is a Maine Coon
He likes to be out in the catio many hours of the day, and especially the night, if I forget to close it.
He likes to sit out in the catio in the rain and cold.
He thinks he can go through the mirror to the other side. He paws at mirrors vigourously.
As far as nip is concerned, he can take it or leave it.
He lives under the bed.
He fears all strangers, and since he does not meet new people, everyone is a stranger. He has rarely been seen by anyone else. He can only be seen on this blog. I tell people I have 3 cats not 4. They will never see the fourth one anyway!
He is not a fussy eater.
He especially likes feather toys.
He likes to run and wrestle with Scooby.
Zeke enjoys watching animal YouTube videos with birds and squirrels.

Gotcha!

Updates

After two weeks the marijuana billboard is removed. It was replaced with an all new sign with no cat or cat references.

OLD SIGN (IM SO HIGH RIGHT MEOW. CLEARCHOICE CANNABIS)

Update on the New Scooby Gang

The New Scooby Gang has been having trouble with Sheriff Spike and the Notorious Two. No fear. Wild Bill Scooby is not concerned about capture! Evading and fooling those two youngsters was easy!

Odd and ends

Scooby says this box is too small! We want more stuff! Starting to get that Scooby catitude again!

Mt Rainier from highway 512 going 60mph as a passenger. I could do these every day but it is pretty off topic. Warehouse in foreground. Heat has abated.

Finally, due to underwhelming demand, I added a few personal photos to my About page.

Too hot to play is a description of today. We lie still trying to keep cool, and look at Mt Rainier wishing we were in the snow! I do this bonus post as I hide away in the shadows as well.

The cats amuse themselves

This post just shows the cats about the house amusing themselves.

An inconvenient place to sleep (for me) Are my arms three feet long?

Grand Central Station!

Who invited you?

You are too big to sleep in this!

Think I got a cavity!

Scooby searching for treats

This post is about Scooby searching for treats.

Like all felines, Scooby is on the hunt for something tasty to snack upon. There is no cat food up in the pantry; however, he has noticed that this is where the treat bags come from. It is very tricky to get inside that pantry without a climbing rope. I heard a loud noise which makes me believe he took a giant leap up from floor level to get up there. The door must have been left open. When I checked, there he was looking around at the contents. Sorry, Scooby, the treats are up two more shelves higher! No self service today!
