Insane in the Membrane (scroll down)

??? Can't get rid of that inexplicable white space, so consider the time you spent scrolling time to whip up your anticipation to a frenzy. :) Well, Natalie's home for the holidays so that means nutri-grain wrappers and empty soda cans everywhere & screeching bitey pinchy fights on the couch. With me. :) So she doesn't need any pictures of Balthazar for now, but I *like* pictures of Balthazar, so I'm going to post them anyway. :) Especially since I've worked four months to steal his little heart and Natalie is miffed that she has to work to win him back. ...So Look what happened when I left my camera in the bathroom. It's a drive-by photo shooting. Good thing this wasn't a film camera! :)

Snoozy Kitty.

Pictures Worth a Thousand Words

Hello Sweeties. Thanksgiving was lovely and very busy with lots of families and, as Jim mentioned several times, dishes. :) Except no Kagan or Natalie, which was sad.
However we managed to have a good time anyway. See for yourselves!
(Click on these to make them bigger - there seems to be a max dimension that is squeezing the photos.)



Hey, remember that time that I got married and moved Thanksgiving celebration one measly day to fit in all the travel and Kagan gave me tons of grief? For weeks?
And how mean he was to me when I had classes and exams during the week he wanted me to sit around on his land and he yelled at me and made me sad? I wonder what he would have said had it been *us* not making a thanksgiving visit. =) YEAH.

One of these things is not like it should be...

I hope you made it through your lonely weekend Natalie. :) Do you notice a certain something that is not right in these photos? Well, it's a "snap snap" then smackdown situation again, you'd think he's start to associate the flash with getting beaten :)

Kitty Post

I moved the cat tree up to the kitchen since the big cats were hanging out on it & I never got to see them anymore. I also thought there might be some fun fights plus this way they can see birds mere inches from their toothy little faces.

On a side note, I've been surprised and delighted to see comments from people who *aren't Natalie* :) When I started posting pics off the kitty Natalie misses the most, I never even considered the possibility that anyone else would look. But I'm really pleased & tickled. So thanks.

Alexe, get an account! :)

All of these of only Balthazar were taken within one minute – he kept turning and playing & I kept snapping. :)

My Lovely Kitty Lumps

Whoah, I've been so busy working all weekend that I've missed TWO of Natalie's updates! Even though I had to work, Jim & I went for a walk on Sunday and sat in the field and let the wind practically blow us away while we watched clouds stream hard and fast across the mountain - from behind to the right, dipping into the valley in the middle, and blowing back over to the left. It was like they all came in a line and there was a neverending supply of them. The wind blew Caesar's ears back while he sprang about chasing a ball & getting burdocks on his legs. When we come down to work in the morning (Caesar & I ) Balthazar attacks Caesar & they race around growling and running and being unbelievably cute. Balthazar flies across the room & races up the couch under the cover, and fights with Caesar from under the blanket. Then he comes out, licks his tail and looks completely uninterested until Caesar turns away, then he *pounces* and bites Caesar's legs. You'll be glad to know that I've got a huge backlog of naughty kitty pics to upload for you - I still take 'em, even if I'm very very busy. =)
