Some magnificent afternoon napitude from Rory:
A black and white cat asleep on the couch in a ridiculous posture, like he started on his right side, belly out, and then rotated his front end down into the cushion and also towards the front of the couch, ending up with his head both upside down and at a 90 degree angle to his back, his front paws flung forwards framing it, and a whole lot of white belly exposed.

I love that her "make Rory my cuddle buddy whether he likes it or not" campaign is working. Two minutes after this picture, he was licking her head and she seemed to be enjoying it. #catsofbluesky
Two black and white cats lying on a chair. The smaller one is leaning back on the larger one, who is trying to ignore her.

Cheating and posting a Friday night picture for Saturday because look at these goobers.

I think Dot is actually going to manage to wear Rory down to the point of tolerating co-sleeping, if not actual affection.
Two black and white cats lying on their sides on a chair, facing out at the camera, with all their legs pointing towards each other. You get the sense the detente is only temporary.

I am surround.
Arm's-length view of my lap from above featuring two black and white cats curled up asleep. The smaller one is on my lap and the larger one is on the couch cuddled up to my leg.

This little stinker is _determined _ that this big stinker gets no personal space. NB: This is emphatically not "I love you and want to snuggle with you." It is 100% "That must be the good spot, shove over."

Roughly 8 months old, still very compact when she wants to be:

Happy Caturday from Bruce:
A fluffy gray and white cat sitting on the newel post of a stair rail. His back end is on the post. His front end is draped over the rail with one leg hanging straight down on either side.

My favorite Transformers example is Strika: tfwiki.net/wiki/Strika_...

These two are a heterosexual couple:
Strika from Transformers Animated. A large bulky robot in shades of dull purple, maroon, and gold. Any female coding is very subtle. Lugnut from Transformers Animated. A large bulky robot in shades of dark purple and green. Male coded and allegedly in some kind of long-term heterosexual relationship with Strika.

What's the game you spent the most time on pre-2000?

(well, the series, anyway)

How it's going:
A small black and white cat lying on her back, cradled between two blanket-covered human legs. White belly is most of what's visible. Her neck is extended to show her chin, her front paws are tucked over her belly, and her back paws are in the air with her legs half-folded and splayed.

Sometimes there's a reason to keep the camera vertical. #caturday
Photo shot from my perspective lying on the couch with my feet stretched in front of me. A small black and white cat is clutching my leg with her face turned away from the camera. A large black and white cat is sprawled across the top of a bookshelf at the end of the couch.

Long baby:
A black and white kitten stretched out on her side as long as she can get.

Here's a good timeline-cleansing headline: www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...
Screenshot of news video with the headline, "Emotional support alligator is no longer welcome in Pennsylvania Walmart." The video still shows a smiling man cradling a medium-sized alligator. The alligator is wearing a cable-knit sweater with a fur collar.

Got her mid-yawn:
A black and white kitten lying on her side on a messy bed. Her front paws are tucked up and her belly is on display. She is yawning hugely.

Who's probably about 5 months old, not microchipped, and mostly over getting poked and prodded at her first (known) vet visit today? This girl!
A black and white kitten lying on a bed. She's alert with her head up, ears forward, and looking at the camera. The rest of her body is tilted onto one side with her paws tucked against her belly and her tail curled over them.

Silver says, excuse me, I am still the baby, in perpetuity.
Blue tabby cat lying in the basket of a cat tree level with a windowsill. The blinds are down, but thin strips of afternoon sun shine through onto the cat and the cat tree. The cat is awake and looking at the camera with a long-suffering expression due to the invasion of her sanctum.

Happy Caturday! This little chaos monster showed up in my garage about two and a half weeks ago, since which time she's grown quite a bit and list 3 baby canines (fourth one is retained so far). Tentatively named Dot. The 3 big cats are less than thrilled.
A black and white kitten relaxing on my chest with her eyes mostly closed.

Visited Monticello and found frogs because of course I did:

I am going to be the voice of dissent. That looks like a more mature cere -- fledglings usually have a flatter, pinker one -- and the baby fuzz is usually kind of stringy and yellowish, not white and fluffy. Fancy younger baby stolen from: www.pigeons.biz/threads/hank...
Young pigeon, mostly feathered but with short tailfeathers still and some leftover baby fuzz poking through on the head.

Somebody's put out that I went to the office yesterday.
A blue tabby cat sitting inside an open backpack looking at the camera with a slightly challenging expression. The same blue tabby cat curled up sleeping in the open backpack.

The cones say police training exercise, which is obviously a cover-up for a suitcase massacre:
Many standard-size black roller bags laid out on their backs in 2 neat rows on the marble floor of a grand old train station. The rows of bags extend past the edge of the photo on both sides. A yellow cone in front says, "Caution: Police training in progress."

All derped out now:
The same cat curled up on a plaid couch with his eyes closed, exhausted from all the derping.

Caturday derpitude.
A long-haired gray and white cat lying on his back on a gray rug that badly needs vacuuming. His front paws are tucked up, his face is upside down, his mouth is open a bit, and his expression is vacant.

This picture of Rory is even funnier if you know that Bruce knocked the bin over on top of him 2 minutes ago.
A tall rectangular blue plastic recycling bin on its side. A black and white cat is lying inside the bin looking out.
