It rained today, so all the snow is gone. Mowgli had to check it out after his afternoon nap.

- Thank you for sharing this tender family moment ...Missy has turned from an occasional into a full time lap cat ; she snuggles and purrs more than ever before. I couldn't be more happy

@weebeasties - Sam certainly does look comfortable here; what a gorgeous fellow he is!
A reminder for everyone: this month's Photo Contest - "Sleeping Cats" is drawing some fabulous photos of - what else?
Photo Contest - Sleeping Cats!
Let's see those Kitties In Dreamland! Submissions are being accepted through January twenty-fourth, so that leaves plenty of time. Surely, some time in the next four days, your kitty will need a nap, yes? Get in the darkroom, load up those film holders, set up that camera and tripod, take some pictures, go back in the darkroom and hunt around for the rodinal, develop those plates, print 'em up and scan them into your computer! Or you could just use your cell phone.

I love the photo contest theme for this month! I haven’t entered anything yet because I have so many cute pictures of Charlie sleeping, I’m having trouble choosing! Having a lot of cute Charlie photos to look through is always a pawsitive!

Warm out around 45ish and shoveling snow off deck for Miss Honeybee to prowl around...she was outside but the scraping of the shovel scared her so she bolted under the deck...here she is before I scared miss Swishy tail.
Alicia you guys look happy and content. As someone else who grew up with hand me downs and yard sailing every weekend we rarely purchased new stuff.
And that saying is one I say all the time to the guys at work when they talk about spending money. Use it up or go without is my favorite saying.
In fact I have fond memories of my dad taking me to the town dump and we used to find the coolest stuff in the metal areas. One year i got an expensive mountain bike that I used for 4 years. Put 1500 miles on that sucker before frame cracked on me.
And here's the bee

- Mom and Dad were slightly at odds regarding saving or spending. Dad had a jar into which he'd dutifully put money "saved" by either fixing something or making do with something else. The conversations were usually quite short and one sided.
"I put a nickel in the jar today."
"Let's celebrate by going out to dinner!"
Poor old Dad usually lost that repartee.

@weebeasties Isn't that the BEST?!! Hope you feel better soon! Getting plenty of C.A.T. (Cat-Assisted Therapy) is the proven best way!

Great pix! Now how about some with the ENTIRE family? 
1CatOverTheLine
Yeah, my family have always been that way through the generations, especially my dad's. My mom's was a little bit different as she had ancestors who were gangsters 
so there were a lot of ill-gotten gains in her family. Somehow she turned out the exact opposite, for which I'm eternally grateful.
"Frugal" is kind of my middle name -- I think I may even outdo my dad on that, and he was VERY careful, left to his own devices. He was generous with my mom, though, and with me, so it wasn't easy for him -- must have been a perennial dilemma. So glad I had a lot of great life lessons from ancestors and they still help me now, every day.

Missy can snuggle on my lap anytime. She's so beautiful!

I had a great morning. I woke up and Lilith was snuggled up by my side. Sophie was on my pillow right above my head. She kept petting my cheek with her little paw and her purring was so loud that DD could hear her in the living room when she came out from her room to look for them.
I took this picture of Lily last night. She's starting to tolerate the camera more. She usually gets upset and leaves the room when I bust out the phone.
Oh,Missy can snuggle on my lap anytime. She's so beautiful!

's little girls!Lilith and Sophie
Come to Daddy!
What a glorious day it is here - just short of 50º F - and the woods are filled with tracks - Fox and rabbit; mouse and vole; deer and squirrels. Four more days of this and I might just open the pool!

-- can we work out a visitation deal with both of them? 
*I cannot resist the little black cats!* 
Thanks! She is a beauty and she knows it. That's probably because I tell her she's gorgeous about a thousand times a day.Oh,
She adores being praised and soaks it up like a little sponge. My little diva. 
It's amazing how her coat has changed since I got her. When she was at the shelter, she was all black with some chocolate brown on her back. She had two small white tufts by her cheeks. Those tufts grew out into what you see now. I'll post some pictures that show the transformation.
Lily at home a few days after I got her. Her little belly was still shaved from her spay surgery. You can see the little tufts of white by her cheeks/chin.
About 6 months later. The tufts are growing out.
They kept growing in and this is what she looks like now. This is the photo I submitted for the sleeping cats contest. It was taken after a bath. She was quite unhappy with me until I made her a little nest in my blanket and she fell asleep in it.

- That's what we'll tell the judge - "we couldn't resist the little fluffy black cats, your honour!" Maybe the judge will let us off with Community Service - in a cat shelter! Get the coats with the BIG pockets.As five o'clock nears, it's still over forty degrees here, and the sun's been out every minute. Now I remember what's under all that snow - the lawn!

If this article about Howard and Beth Stern isn't pawsitive, nothing is. Their dedication to cats is amazing. They have fostered nearly 600 cats over the past 4 years. 
Meet Beth and Howard Stern’s Cats
Look at those cats. They all look so content. Look at Stormy and Sweet Dreams. Could the smile on SD's little face get any bigger? Those two are heroes. Yes, Howard. Real men DO love cats!

I would love to get a family pic, but the furry members aren't particularly cooperative. Lol.@weebeasties Isn't that the BEST?!! Hope you feel better soon! Getting plenty of C.A.T. (Cat-Assisted Therapy) is the proven best way!

Maybe if we all bathed in tuna juice . . .
If you have four cats and want to make for a busy weekend. Bring only one crazy cat perch home

After spending most of my day as a snarling grump, 
a visit to this thread cheered me up enormously. 
Even a snarling grump has no defense against the optimism and cheerfulness here, plus I got to admire images of my favorite cats. (They are all my favorite cats). 
Enough fun. It was laundry time. This is what I saw when I stood up
Nature always soothes the snarling grump.
After taking some photos, I sat down to upload them to my computer. When I did, I came across this:
Awww. My boy, Paul.

Just back from a delightful girls' afternoon with my friends. It had been a long time since our last chance to be together without boyfriends around, so it was great. Besides, tomorrow we will go dine out together as a late celebration of Cristina's birthday, so I think this is an "epic" weekend.
As a side note, I catched Raist starting game session with Freya a few times today, instead of the other way around, so I think he is actually happy of having her here and not just "tolerating" her

Whitey is such a handsome boy! His new collar suits him very well. Can you give him a little extra petting for me today?
