We got a good crop this year... We got it all bagged up in mesh... And hung it in the barn to dry... And here is Makena on the day he discovered we were growing catnip in one of the covered beds.....

Failure #1 Saw this silly radio control centipede thing in a YouTube video. There was a cat playing with and having a great time chasing it. Only $9.99 on Amazon! Charged it up and it zipped around the floor as advertised. June Bugs reaction: Once, and only once, she batted at it. I think...

They can't climb trees. Apparently they don't have claws. Not sure how they plan to get away from larger predators, or how they get a good look around to spot prey. Guess they just have to deal with it. They don't hunt for food. I suspect this goes back to the "no claws" problem they all have...

Was at a scrapyard a few days ago to pick up some bits of metal for a project I was working on. Scrambling around by the racks of metal was this little kitten. The color and pattern caught my eye but all I had was my cellphone camera... What a pretty little kitten! After a little while it was...

I wanted to start this off by saying that cats are woven into my life and the lives of the members of this forum. But as I thought about it, I realized that it would be more accurate to say that cats are tangled up in our lives. The word "woven" implies some sense of order and logic...two...

What are your cats lap habits? Lilia, our shy little Bengal.... Greatly prefers my wife over me. BUT, when I am working from home, and there is a chill in the air, I am guaranteed her quiet company all afternoon June Bug. Loves a lap when cold, overheats easily and often just lays along...

Our new kitten June Bug loves exploring outside. We thought best to get her familiar with a harness as early as possible....... We went to Pet Smart and bought the smallest we could find: a kitten harness from "Grreat Choice." I adjusted it as small as it would go but.... too much harness and...

This is a bit of a long story; there are lots of small details and background. I am going to write this in installments. Last week I was taking our Bengal Makena for a morning walk. We were taking a wooded path that leads to our field when Makena hesitated and looked toward the road. I stopped...

Trying to watch an old episode of Futurama last night and I kept getting this cat silhouette showing up on my screen. Then the cat starting cleaning itself. Really distracting when I am trying to watch the show. The TV is out of warranty, so I guess I have to find somebody to repair it...

Couple of shots of our Bengals in windows. Cats love windows, with this in mind we made sure we had deep sills when we renovated. Who put this jar thing in my window? Reflection Sunset Let it snow... Morning sunlight Watching birds with my mum Sound asleep Best seat in the house...

Been trying to get good jumping pics - finally getting some decent shots Sequence shots and a nice shot coming towards me Makena loves jumping around on the rocks in our nearby creek. I have tried a few times to get good "in flight" shots but I am just now getting the hang of it...

We take our Bengal Makena out for a walk every day when weather permits. Winters are tough on Makena, his thin fur doesn't tolerate cold temps and deep snow, so walks are sometimes limited. We had a warm day yesterday and Makena and I went out for a long hike. The temperature was a bit lower...

Makena, our male Bengal Makena is easy to get pics of. He has lots of patience and will generally do whatever I ask... Out walking with his mum, he takes a minute to listen to her talking to him.. I wish I could run so fast, so effortlessly.... Taking a break while out hiking at...

Is it too early to share Christmas cat pics? Makena with Santa at a Petsmart a few years ago. Normally Makena would not be enthusiastic about this sort of thing, but he knows the clerk (dressed as Santa) really well from previous visits to the store and he was excited to see him again.

Every year we take Makena with us to get pumpkins There are quite a few mice living in and about the pumpkin patch - Makena gets a bit sidetracked and has to be encouraged to keep moving Makena knows the pumpkin farm, we often hike around the fields with him in the summer. After...

Makena gets phoof tail whenever he gets excited - here he was just playing with our other Bengal....

Our Bengal Makena loves to spend time outdoors with us. In nice weather we get him out nearly every day. His pelt is very thin and he needed a sweater when we headed out, if he catches a chill, he wants to head home. Springtime always finds him full of energy. This winter was too cold for him...

  Did this video two years ago, hope you enjoy it! Eric

As the temps hover around zero outside - our cats spend a lot of time sitting next to the wood stove.... They usually change position every ten minutes or so, presumably so they get heated up evenly But when I pet them, they are so hot it seems like they would be uncomfortable. Exactly...

Our Bengal Makena is very bold and adventurous. We regularly take him hiking with us, he has been to softball games to watch my wife play, he goes to the pet store with us etc. Here are some pics from a few years ago when we took him out in our boat for the first time. He was a bit nervous at...
