Didn’t I tell you that everyone loves that Super! Awesome! shoe box?
Cilantro and Cori, in and on the box.
Alice patiently waits her turn (which is very much NOT like Alice).
Cori and Cila do their daily inspection of the box (safety first!) (Note Alice’s paw in the lower right corner of the picture.)
Are the peek holes clear? Apparently so!
Alice has just about lost her patience – not that she had a firm grasp on it to begin with, you understand. But she IS working on her anger management…
So she takes her annoyance out on a toy mouse instead. Good anger management, Alice! (Poor toy mousie.)
::thlurrrrrp:: Admit it – that little spotted belly is about the cutest thing you’ve seen today, isn’t it?
“Maybe I’ll cut HER….”
All the Spice Girls (and Ciara, for that matter) are snuggly little snugglers.
Ciara’s making a mental note to add Cila to the Cut List.
Oh, Ciara. SO annoyed by EVERYTHING.
On Sunday, I went out and cut a bunch of fresh catnip, which I tied together and hung in the closet to dry. Without realizing it, I dropped several pieces on the floor. All the ‘nipheads in the house knew about it pretty much instantly, and before I knew it, they were gathered in the kitchen to get hiiiiiiiiiigh.
Newt’s like “I don’t know what they’re doing, but I disapprove.”
Spanky just eats the catnip. The rest of them roll around on it and sniff it, then roll around some more. Miz Poo is a mean drunk, and smacks at anyone who gets too close to her when she’s hiiiiiigh. (Okay, truthfully she does that whether she’s high or not.)

It’s so cool that your kitchen is big enough to accommodate a rug big enough for all those kitties AND you still have plenty of floor space to walk around it. Your kitchen floor is so clean, BTW.
Damn, that catnip is to your house what chocolate-covered espresso beans are to mine. I suppose we all have our vices.
Hee! You can spend seven thousand dollars on top-of-the-line kitty toys and the damned cats will still just prefer an old shoebox.
I like the way Ms.Poo staked out the sunny spot on the kitchen rug. good to be hiiiigh in the sun!
Can you explain catnip to me? I must be mistaken, but it seems like giving them drugs, which of course, you wouldn’t want to do to children, so why is it ok for cats? I probably sound like an idiot.
Because cats aren’t children, maybe?
Yes, I know I did not phrase that correctly. I guess I have just had drugs = bad ingrained in me all of my life, so as a non-cat owner, I don’t understand why you would give your cats drugs? I guess there are no harmful or long term effects? Maybe it is similar to having a few drinks? I know I sound silly/ridiculous, just a bit confused and I’ve always wondered this about catnip.
I was gonna put the smack down, but then I got high.
I was gonna make the kittehs suffer, but then I got high.
Now I’m lyin’ here sheddin’ and I know why
(Why Poo?)
Mmmm, cuz I got high, cuz I got high, cuz I got high…
LA DA DA DA DA DA
(with apologies to Afroman)
OMG, Jennifer, I wish there were a like button on here. So funny.
Newtles had to stay off the carpet because the beauty of a buff cat in the sun is just too much for most to take. (My favorite all time personal cat pic is of our late buff boy in the sun in the snow).
The mean drunk Poo is killing me. Alice is much bigger than Elphaba body size wise-her paws look pretty big unless it is the perspective of the photo?
One of my cats is the wierdest nip-head I’ve ever seen. He rubs his chin on it over and over while DROOLING copious amounts, and as a result his entire face and neck and chest end up plastered down, completely saturated with drool. Does any of your crew do the drool thing??
Hey Robyn…I won’t comment twice every day (promise!), but here’s a relevant link (re: UPS) for you, in case you haven’t seen it…

WTF is up with them? Shouldn’t they be trying harder in this economy?
As large as your kitchen is have you ever considered an island for additional counter space? There are islands that are on wheels so they can be positioned as needed.
