Is It Caturday?


Gatto and Jigs wanted their day in the sun.



It is cooler today but humid. The smoke is gone for now, anyway. It is nice, and the cats appreciate it, to have the two kitchen doors open.  One door gives them access to this porch you see them snoozing in. We don't use it much since it started to heat up, especially after the enormous tree that sheltered it died. It had been a pleasant place for many a lunch and dinner.

Stay well, my pals.

Your sweet little cat is so relaxed... I think I'll take a little nap too.

Gatto and Jigs look so peaceful out there. I’m glad they got a good porch day. Humid or not, cats always manage to find the perfect spot.

I think cats may be much smarter than humans.

Nothing more calming than a sleeping kitty draped on a table. I'd like a Sleeping Cats calendar, one per month, different kitties lying on different unlikely objects.

Aw, what a comfortable sight!
Yay for the smoke being gone! That had to be miserable.
Sad about your tree. We have a similar situation. Our big tree needs to be cut, but if we do we will lose the major shade for our house.

Big Trees provide shade and heat reduction; when they are gone, we notice them much more.

I’m glad the smoke is gone. ❤️

I think Canada has blown the smoke the other way bc of the Predator's alarming threats.

You deserve to catch a break. We not only had serious storms today (over 4 inches of rain) we had tornado warnings after I spoke to you. Things have settled now (almost 6pm).

I am glad the smoke is gone! I love Gatto, he looks so relaxed.

He knows how to enjoy life, Andreja!

They think hot and humid is a little slice of cat heaven, Jane.

I know cats are smarter than humans, Pixie.

I could make you one but there would be a repeat of cats and poses wouldn't change much, Boud!
