In a low sun

 

the Livingroom and Sitting room of our house face the rising sun.  The back of the couch is the favored spot for kitties wanting to catch some rays and see the world.  We've a porch roof over the sitting room windows so it's a good bit darker in there.  Sometimes, however, with clear skies and open shades we can have a brief period of cat-worthy sunlight.

wha'chu lookin' at?

Daisy is on her latest cat toy.  Otherwise known as our new desk chair, this new toy seems to have found favor as a scratching post and nap location.  It's also a good place from which to scope out the front porch.

What's that?!? A squirrel?  Leaves?  Better not be one of those neighbor cats!!

That's Daisy for you.  Always alert, whether it's braving the noonday sun, or staring, like a gunfighter, into the low sun off the porch.

Have a great week ahead all!

Just a Quick Check-In

Today is just a quick pre-holiday check-in.  Chez-Ranger is preparing for Thanksgiving.  We've got most of our soup-fixin's, with the rest to come tomorrow.  There will probably be a slice of deli turkey for Daisy, although she enjoys a bottle of brown gravy more than anything else, I suspect.

LadyRanger and I have usually kept this holiday for ourselves and our cats.  I suppose that makes Covid Thanksgiving II a bit easier for us, but gosh, we're ready for life to return to normal.  I think we'd even settle for normal-ish!

Anyway, here's a pic of our wee tuxedo cat Ivy, taken 3 weeks short of 13 years ago.  You can see that she's still glowing from all the good t-giving turkey tryptophan!

She was a good cat.

I hope your holiday is happy!

Apologies

It has been an odd couple of weeks.  We had a bit of a computer scare.  Our hard drive gave up the ghost!  It was a newer SSD and ghost-surrendering is not a common occurrence with these.  LadyRanger and I were rather worried that we'd lost some of our most treasured pics of Maddie and Ivy!  Our local Computer Wizards read the auguries, consulted the sacred flocks and got us back up and running with no loss of digital memories!  I am always happy that there are people out there who know more than I do about stuff.

Daisy is very relieved that you will get your accustomed Daily Dose of Daisy!  She was afraid that you would have all worried yourselves into anemia without your weekly update on how she is doing.  She understands how important she is to you and wants to support your good health with regular measures of the US RDA of Daisy!  Or, should you be a nocturnal user of the internet, (and apologies for paraphrasing the Bard) a little touch of Daisy in the night......

I told her that you'd all be fine.  I told her that not only did you have the vast realm of the internet to temporarily sustain you, your own personal cats would keep you safe from harm!

Her response?

Oh, please....

Daisy is, as you can see, a past master of the skeptical look.

I do hope this post finds you well, and that it spurs you on to great things in the week ahead!
