Sassy cats — Cattitude after a day in the pond

May 13, 2016 8:00 am

It was a busy week. On the nice days the beloved husband and I were outside catching up on yard and pond work. The cats showed no interest preferring to stay inside and rest up (for what I don’t know!).

Here is Morgan yawning her fool head off. Must have been an eventful morning.

Morgan: Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know you worked hard yada yada. Now come pet me.

Morgan: Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know you worked hard yada yada. Now come pet me.

Here is Mollie.

Mollie: I suppose it's happy hour again? How about a tuna martini with a twist of sardine?

Mollie: I suppose it’s happy hour again? How about a tuna martini with a twist of sardine?

And Hazel.

Hazel: What took so long? Where's lunch? How about a snack? You don't need a shower. Feed me first!

Hazel: What took so long? Where’s lunch? How about a snack? You don’t need a shower. Feed me first!

And my sweet friend who watched everything I did at the pond.

Frog: Listen if the cats don't appreciate you, come join us. There's room in the pond!

Frog: Listen if the cats don’t appreciate you, come join us. There’s room in the pond!

  2. Beautiful cats! I love Hazels expression! Looks like she has definite views on the way things should be at her house.

    1. That photo was a rare catch. Normally she’s very timid and somehow her eyes always get flashed in photos. They all have views on how things should be done. Most of Hazel’s views revolved around food.

  3. It’s Splash Day already?
    I love the way Morgan has that dark triangle of fur in front of his ears ( Nice texture in that picture) Molly and Hazel are adorable, too.

    1. Morgan’s fur is very interesting. It’s a charcoal color that glows silvery around the edges.

    1. Hazel would love you. I have been tough. She lost weight and she’s not gaining it back on my watch! I had an overweight cat that went outside. If I put her on a diet she ate more mice and birds.

      1. Yeah, we have to save the birds. My cats are mostly indoors, but I swear, every once in a while a stupid finch will fly straight into a cat’s mouth. Or a dove.

    1. Most of the frogs do have a name and yes I can tell them apart. This was taken a few weeks ago when they were all dark from hibernating all winter so I don’t know which one it is. Yesterday Freckle was with me all day. He (or she) has a big freckle on it’s back. Ali has markings on the jaw that look like alligator teeth. Several others too.

  15. I love the froggy friend. And maybe I’m projecting, but it certainly looks to me like Hazel is starving half to death. I mean, she’s down to skin and bones! And fur. I’m sure it’s mostly fur and she is positively anorexic underneath all that.
