Maximus the Blind


Maximus is 4 years old, and still a shoulder kitty.

It's always cute. However, how am I supposed to concentrate with a cuddly kitty on my shoulders?

Cats

I need to figure out how to train cats to vomit in the bathroom. Or just anywhere non-carpet. But no. Cats seemed pre-disposed to urp on the berber. Granted, my house is mostly carpet. So I suppose it is statistically likely that I'll be mining cat-hack from the fiber on my floor. Still, I wish they had a natural predisposition to go jump in my tub, or something. Then I could just wipe up the big stuff, and hose the rest down.

A girl can dream.

Gooooood Morning LJ!

It's 6:45, the time I normally think about getting up, and 45 minutes before I actually get up.

I'm bathed, now I must dress and hit the road. My cats are looking at me like I'm a loon. They sprawl on my bed in a state of warm splendor while I run around deciding what to wear.

They try to convince me that getting up at this time is madness and that sleeping in is good for the soul. Well, that's what they look like they are saying.

Max attempts passive resistance by staging a nap-in on my work pants.

Sascha is cuddling up with my shoes.

Demonic little beasties.

I hope everyone is having a grand day! The good news is, it's nearly the weekend. The bad news is, it doesn't feel like it.

It's all fun and games until...

I woke up this morning and new something was wrong. My cats were not in my midst. They are my two furry satellites. They are in my orbit whenever I wake up.

A brief search showed that they had trapped themselves in the guest bathroom. Likely a result of their wrestling proclivities. I open the door and they look at me like I was punishing them.

"Don't look at me my little predators," I said, "I was sound asleep!"

Dumbasses.

It feels like a hot friday morning. Time to bathe and get to work.

This will be a bad week for me being social. City of Heroes is offering double xp points this weekend. Heh.

This Day in Catstory

While sitting on my sofa, entering sales figures for [livejournal.com profile] fireflygames, Maximus the Blind was on the ottoman, hanging out. Sascha was laying next to me, assuming the cute sleeping position.

Sascha began to snore. This fact did not go unnoticed by Maximus. Slowly Maximus turned around. Step by step by step by step, he crept towards the snoring noise. He approached Sascha and delicately sniffed the snoring mass.

Maximus seemed to be making a decision on his next move. He stepped back a bit, then hopped up on his hind legs and pounced upon Sascha.

Sascha awoke with a start and a squeal and smacked Maximus upside the head once. Maximus proceeded to groom Sascha and then politely excuse himself elswhere in the house. Sascha resumed his napping formation, until he heard strange noises from the South Park episode I was watching. He is now in a state of mild alert.

This has been an episode of "This Day in Catstory."

Sascha and Max: Then and Now

I've Sascha and Maximus have been delightful neutered life partners for a just over two years, now. I thought I should post a "Then and Now" pair of photos.

One of their first wrestling matches:


I never get tired of that picture of them. But look at how small Maximus was!

And now:


This was just after Maximus was grooming Sascha's paws. Maximus has now exceeded Sascha's size.

A Saturday Afternoon in Repose

I have one of these



and I know how to use it!

Interestingly enough, the Sacramento Natural Food Co-op is selling this for the same price that Amazon sells it. Nice!

Maximus the Blind Wonderkitty has indulged his afternoon cat crazies by jumping up, down, over and around the ottoman in my living room. Now he lays upon it, savoring his victory over said ottoman.
