People that own cats grow better weed

I can only imagine the struggle it must be to get that tennis ball back.
She destroys them. Regular green ones last an hour. Chuck-It hard balls last a day or two. She's relentless. I have to take it at night or she will chomp/slobber/pant, keeping us awake. Then we just need to try and block out the fact that the cats are wreaking havoc in the living area.

I came to an understanding with myself long ago. With 3 pits and a cat I had to submit to the knowledge that this was the life I have chosen.

I love them too much for any mess to be worth being upset about. I will let them know it's not ok. Clean it up and give them a cuddle.

Thumby is polydactyl. She is a Blue point Siamese with "thumbs" on all 4 paws. It's sad that some don't understand that you must have the claw removed from the "thumb" or it curl's around and causes a wound that gets septic kind of quick. She was a gift from a friend who didn't know that. She already had infections in her front paws.
The vet cleaned her up and she's been "daddy's cat" ever since. To this day she sleeps at my feet or behind my knees, every night.

Her full name is Thumbelina. She likes the bud leaves. Nice and fresh before you trim them.

So does Haji. Haji is a Black and gray Tabby.

We also have 2 full blood Burmese - all black Smokey and Trouble. Smokey is a mama's boy and Trouble enjoys being around when you smoke. If doing bong's. He bugs you for the exhale. He take a cpl and lays down...

Pee Wee Herman is an American Short hair. He was a runt of the litter (Barn cats) and is rather small - say about 2 pounds wet. He loves to be held and walked around. While his size maybe small. His abilities are not. This cat is Bullitt fast and rules the roost.

Then we have another "daddy's cat". Barnacle Bill, the pirate cat. He's special as he is the lone survivor of a coyote attack on the barn cats a few years back. I was worried that something was wrong because all the cats seemed to disappear one afternoon. Later that night - about 11:00 pm I was out on the deck. He came up and mewed at my feet, curling around and around them.
I picked him up, as it was odd for a kitten at his age to come directly to you. He had one eye swollen up and closed. Looked like it was gone.
Off to the vet, first thing in the mourning.
His eye was there but had some damage to the retina. To this day, his damaged eye only partially reflects.
Bill is the most graceful jumper and has never stopped playing... Another "hold me" cat. Um, when he's not perched on your shoulder like a Parrot.
He'll curl around your head and "lay down" on you like a mink stole.

I'll see if I can dig up more pics of them and drop those in a post later...

I used to have a tall Savana. He was bonded to me and never paid attention to my then girl friend, who later became my wife. That was back in the film and negative days. Not sure I can find one of him. He would walk by leash, and got a shit load of attention at festival, and Blue's on the Mall.
He's long gone now. Still have his collar on the mantel...

That brings me to the Sphinx in your avatar. Do you, or did you have it at one time?
Thumbs is a badass! I have seen Highland Lynx with fist paws before. I think this is the same thing right? Is that what it's called?

Ah... The elusive Sphinx -

That's Pinkie. She runs the yard in San Quentin.

I have a Savannah that speaks Spanish but her name is French :eyesmoke:

Yeah. I just step right over the fallen lamps, items knocked off the table/hearth. Its all love. So what if the kitty chewed my new headphones and part of a houseplant?

Unrelated however I had a squirrel steal my headphones while I was fishing.

I set the hook. The headphones when flying. I look and here comes a squirrel out of no where. Snatched them right up. All you saw was earbuds bouncing off the ground over and over as he ran.

Lol. Good times.

Thats awesome. At the coast last summer, a seagull grabbed my wife's ice cream...just the dairy off the cone. She yelled at the bird and he dropped the ice cream, took the cone out of her hand. Then I learned about forced spousal food sharing...

The record is four birds. Stashed throughout the house. There's two cats in this household. When you see a bird fly by as your sitting on the couch. Followed by two cats.

My first thought isn't about them getting ME dinner.
"EXCUSE ME MISTER BIRD, DO U HAVE A MINUTE 2 TALK ABOUT OUR KITTY and SAVIOR YEEZUS CHRIST??"

That's what my first thought would be

Hey, I use to feel sorry for these birds. Oh my goodness... Poor little things.

Then I watched how she was catching them. Since she's black. She sticks out in the green grass like a black blob of death.

These stupid ass birds will land in a patch of thick grass. The damn cat doesn't even have to pounce. All she does is swat these idiot birds out the air. Like I'd swat flies. I'm serious, these F'ing birds are stupid. Why would a bird land two feet from a fat black cat. Hell bent on F'ing them up???

I stopped feeling bad for the brain damaged birds really quick.


Have Fun, Kitty Kitty. Thin out the gene pool.
