G is home for Christmas. He upgraded my middle-aged laptop by putting in a new SSD hard drive and a ton more RAM, and it's like having a brand-new computer. I am just delighted with it.
My sainted MIL sent our usual Christmas box of BBQ. I ate a rack of ribs today, as soon as I ripped open the box, and I'm saving the other rack for Christmas. They were sublime - last year's were pretty good, but this year's are just outstanding.
I realize this is a low-content post, even by my undemanding standards, so I shall close with a ton of pics of the crazy boxcat.
Whenever I go to Costco, I always get my stuff loaded in a box. When I get home and empty it out, I dump the box on the kitchen floor and put some catnip in. Usually the cats wander by and perch in the box for a couple minutes when it's new and exciting, then have lost interest entirely by the time the new box shows up. Last week, Bambers found the Odwalla box:
Yesterday, long after he'd normally have lost interest, he still loved the box.
He's so photogenic.
I promise, better content next time!
last night i gave baasha the last funder treat and then brushed the dust from my hands (there was a bit of dust in the bottom of the ziplock).
ReplyDeletelater i turned around and baasha was nosing the ground like a dog in an odd spot where i know he doesn't spill food.
aha, it was that magic dust! my goodness i've never seen him so keen on a treat.
for christmas i ordered him 10 pounds of herbal treats and he likes them ok. they're not the horse crack from nevada though: )
your cat is adorable, wish he were mine!
Happy solstice to you as well! We get way too excited about the days getting longer (even by a second!) up here in the cold, dark north.
ReplyDeleteLove the cat pics - he is a very photogenic guy!
Despite being nutz, Banders certainly is a kyoot kitty!
ReplyDeleteGood BBQ and a happy cat. What more could you ask for.

Cats in boxes - far more entertaining than the electronic box we call a TV. My cat, Allie, has spent many a happy moment in a box.
ReplyDeleteAn open suitcase will also provide Allie with hours of exploration, as will a paper bag. Christmas bags stuffed with gifts in crinkly paper or easily-shredded tissue paper put her over the moon.
All I want for Xmas is an empty box... or maybe a paper bag... gotta love the kittehs. :)
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the solstice Funder. Looking forward to following your exploits in the new year - best wishes for health and happiness to you and yours.
That must be the most comfy box ever! Cute pictures!! :)
ReplyDeleteBambers is adorable!
ReplyDeleteNot a cat person but this is one cute cat. Seriously... reminds me of the joy only a cat or toddler can find in a box. =)
ReplyDeleteI'm with you on the solstice--I think horse people tend to notice daylight more than others! Your boxcat is so cute you could bite him.
ReplyDeleteHappiness reins! Tis the Season!
