C Is For...

"Cookie, That's Good Enough For Me!"

Ok, I couldn't help it. I'm just kidding though. C Is Actually For...

"Cat. Duh. And Specifically For Cleo"

I realize that I'm writing this post at 2:20 am, but that technically makes it Monday, and I'm awake, and tomorrow will be a busy day for me so...

Ok, so Cleo is my cat, of course, but I don't feel like I've put nearly enough pictures of her on my blog, so I wanted to share some of the best. This one is my all time favorite from when she was a little baby cat:














And this is her when she is a bit older, playing chess:














And this is her stalking in a beam of sunlight:











And this is an extreme close-up of her cute kitty face:












Look, it's not that I'm completely obsessed with my cat. It's just that... Oh, who am I kidding. I am completely obsessed with my cat. But just look at how adorable she is!

As a continuation of my last post, I am still strongly considering adopting a sister for her. I'm leaning very heavily towards going through with this adoption. This kitten in question is adorable and has a very sad back story. Plus she's a little bit older so she won't have that initial high-strung-ness that Cleo came with. But she's still young enough to adapt. And I think Cleo would like to have a little sister. I feel guilty every time she is home alone.

To be continued...

I can tell that Cleo is better at chess than I am.

She's definitely better than I am...no question.

I can absolutely see why you are obssessed with your cat, she's lovely! I am a little obsessed with my cat too. He will make an appearance in my blog when I get to the relevant letter! :D

Aw, thank you! Look forward to seeing yours!

haha, I could never get a picture of Smoky looking that cerebral....the best I could do would be to catch him standing in the middle of the chessboard with the pieces all over the place and looking up at me with that blank happy look on his face.

Smoky is a dog, for those who don't know. And I can almost guarantee you that he weighs less than your cat.

Thank you -- there can never be too many cat addicts! :)

I definitely think you should adopt another kitty! You can never have too many cats. OK, well, yes you can. But YOU won't. :)

That is one adorable kitty. I love the chess board picture.

My other job is Cleo's professional photographer.

Liz said...

You only took one of those picturs, so that is false :P Did you want photo credit? Or credit as Cleo's chess opponent? PS, love your icon - I remember that well!

*hehe* The first picture made me think of 'Airborne Cats'. I've tried that on my two acrobats, but my photography skills aren't such good!
The two don't play chess, but obviously they like books - they love to sleep on them! ;-)
And without doubt, your Cleo is cute, BUT my two queens are cuter! =^..^=
