Stretching invitingly towards the camera, Baby seems to share the views of fellow felines Hakuna and Matata of Blog de'Elisson, co-hosts of this week's Carnival of the Cats, who endorse puddy therapy as "the perfect antidote to the angst and hatred with which you poor humans must deal on a daily basis."
"This loveseat did not appear to have enough Cat Hair on it. Problem solved," comments Elisson re resident problem solvers Hakuna and Matata, who also do Rorschach testing on the side.
So many cute animals, so little time. We've fallen behind a bit, what with Tiny's and Baby's fundraising for flood-stranded animals in New Orleans last week and our own obsession with hidden meanings -- or not -- in the "Crescent of Embrace" this week. Be sure to check out the 77th Carnival of the Cats at Blog d'Elisson -- one of the best ever -- and the 51st Friday Ark at Modulator for all things bright and beautiful, as well as a few things creepy crawly at the Ark.

Oh, yes, and speaking of all things bright and beautiful, The Cotillion is up: Brains and beauty plus fun graphics and lots of witty asides, cross-posted at the individual blogs of this week's hostesses, Zendo Deb of TFS Magnum, Claire of e-Claire, Portia of Portia Rediscovered and Mary Katharine Ham of Townhall C-Log.

Your post reminds me, and I should have told you earlier, that our cat Moe acted as Lassie to Dymphna's Timmy last weekend when she had her little drama. My post about her accident is here (includes picture of Moe): http://gatesofvienna.blogspot.com/2005/09/posting-will-be-light-headed-again.html

Totally PAW-some. What a "tail." All best to Dymphna, and extra treats for Moe. :)

Nuh-uh, no extra treats for Moe. That boy has a serious weight problem. He suffers from a tendency to get bladder infections, has had two surgeries, and used to weigh 23 pounds. Down to a svelte 17.5 now, thanks to his rigorous diet. He's been a very expensive cat; it's a good thing he has such a sweet personality.
I occasionally toss him little chunks of beef gristle. But the poor guy gets very little fun otherwise.

Okay, then, extra pats for Moe. What a sweetheart. :)
