National Kitteh Day! Meow!

Buckley's tail kills me.

Happy National Cat Day!!

aka Wooohoo! An excuse to talk about my cat on the blog. Maybe no one will notice I am actually a crazy cat lady in disguise? errr.

...



I still miss old Grover a lot, and there will never be another cat like him. But I have to say that Buckley is doing a darn good job of taking over role as my main furr ball.

It seems like I am in the minority as both a horse lover and a cat lover. Most horse people are dog people.  I like dogs, I really do. But I am 100% a cat person. Like, I would be the 36-year-old crazy cat lady if I could.
Brother and sister


Buckley has really settled in. He and the dog actually get along to a degree. And by that I mean, they peacefully co-exist until the dog gets into Buckley's bubble and then the dog gets a few swats in the face. Sometimes, Buckley will jump into bed, walk over to the dog, smack her in the face for no reason, and then come sleep with me. My kind of cat!!

He loves sinks, too!

Otherwise there is not a mean bone in his body. He tolerates the boy, who enjoys dressing him up, holding him, and petting him in a rough fashion. He will sometimes bite, but it is very gentle.

"No one ever feeds me. Guess I'll sit here and starve. sigh"

No words needed


He is a big boy - probably 14 or 15 pounds - and has the quietest, squeaky little meow. It is so cute.

He enjoys a vigorous nap schedule, but will also play with toys and interact with you. He acts like a large kitten sometimes, not a 7 year old cat. He follows me around everywhere. If I am on the couch, he is either sleeping on me (suffocating really), or right next to me. If I am in the shower, he waits outside the door. He figured out I am the food lady and he better act like he loves me. hahaha.

Leash walking gone wrong

At first he wasn't much of a lap cat, but he came around!

He also lacks modesty

This is the day I brought him home from the shelter. He rode in the
front seat all 15 miles home!

Since he is a big fat ass so large, I tried to walk him on a leash. This lasted about 2 days. Cats just prefer not to be tethered I suppose. They will never truly be tamed.
