OPIE the TV Star Dec 17 2010

Opie the TV Star Dec 17 2010. I should have posted this in December but too much was going on with Nicholas and Louisiana Louie. KCPQ FOX channel 13 Seattle used to put up pet photos people sent in showing pets and weather. I let my cats out one snowy day and took their photo. Then I let them go back inside to warm up. My photo got selected for broadcast. They notified me what day and time it would be on, The presenter is Erin Mayovsky who still works there. You can see Opie right front. They were a great cat family. I made a video and took the still photos from it. Whenever I see Erin, I remember that day so long ago.

Revisiting Christmas Means . . .

Christmas Means is one of my favorite posts of all time. Here you will see Marigold, who passed in January 2019, again, along with a new photo or two I have added. It’s good for a second look if you have seen it before, and if this is your first time here, welcome and enjoy! I can’t seem to improve on this post so I just keep putting it up.

Zeke and Scooby

12th Blogversary July 24

Twelfth Blogversary. Did not think we would get this far. Of the four cats Opie, Zeke, Marigold, and Scooby, only the oldest–Opie–survived to today. Scooby and Zeke still only gone months. I’ll let Nicholas sit this post out. For twelve years these cats entertained you with their antics. They showed off their catio frequently as it was their favorite place to be. They wore funny hats and clothing, and played with lots of toys for amusement. It is sad for me to look at them as I loved them so much–maybe too much. For you oldtimers I present the Feline Cafe cats one more time for your enjoyment–Opie included.

The Three Plus One Remembered

The Three Plus One Remembered. Now the holidays are over there is not much going on. January is a bit of a bummer of a month eh guys? That’s why we fall for the “cats in cars getting coffee trick”–one day it may be true! We do our general routine: lying about mostly and sometimes going out in the catio for some grass if we are lucky. Opie hides in her room though she can come out if she wants to. The PC is in her room so she does get some company during the day or night. Dad’s doing his blog and listening to “Carmen”. La la la la la! Poor Opie! About this time in January 2019 Marigold died, so we remember her today as our featured photo. She was picked up by the Animal Police roaming the mean streets of Tacoma, and we adopted her. She was very smart and beautiful. We have not forgotten you.

Weird and Wonderful Flashbacks

Weird and Wonderful Flashbacks mostly from 2015. Sorry I’m late today. Anyway prepare to see: Cat under a Christmas tree, a spirit orb, a cat in a tunnel, a cat at the vet, a cat outside, a cat snacking on cheese, and a cat in a drawer!
