I love how they’ve arranged themselves in cat, void, cat, void order

sleepy floof, love it

It depends how much tossing and turning I’m doing. If I can find a comfortable spot and I’m not moving around too much, he’s the little spoon. And glares at me until I tuck him in.

If I’m moving around a lot trying to get comfortable, he’ll go sleep at my feet.

Baked potatoes, mashed potatoes, pasta, yogurt, steamed veggies, lots of rice dishes, pulled pork, chicken, venison, Thanksgiving turkey breast when it’s just the 3 of us

It’s extremely helpful when I forget to thaw meat for dinner (which is more often than not)

There is a trick to the pasta, but it saves me from panic dashing into the kitchen when the pot boils over because I forgot to check it

I cook most of our meals in it. We even have 2 so I can cook the meat separately since I’m vegetarian

But wait! There’s more! (not really, I just know I sound like an infomercial)

He just found it this way, honest

Being a cat is such hard work, we humans will never understand

southsamurai has a great overall explanation. I would add it also depends on the age and any medical conditions of each.

We have a 45 pound dog (age 12) and a 15 pound cat (age 17). The dog is on senior/old man food but is otherwise in good health. The cat has kidney disease so we have to get only specific kinds. Per month the cat’s food is about $5 more than the dog’s, but that’s for a smaller amount.

My cat will also do this. And if I put a blanket on his spot he’ll go sleep somewhere else

First time I left my spouse and cat alone, my cat trapped them in the bathroom.

Thank you

I can. I wouldn’t be so arrogant as to assume I know what everyone’s experience is, or to claim my experience is the single universal experience.

Surely you can accept that it is the case for some

It happened to me when I was 8 (not by Woody Allen). I can still remember every detail. It sticks with you

And more penguin species live outside the Antarctic region than in it

The US forests got used to not having them, so now some trees like maples need a thick layer of leaves on the ground to trap moisture around their roots so they don’t dry out. There are also native plants that need this layer to help protect them from temperature swings.

Congratulations! Some well-deserved rest

Thank you for this detailed response. I now have some new shows to watch.

I’m sorry for your loss. That sculpture is great to have around when you’re missing her. I especially love the ears and nose.

So floofy

Don’t give them any ideas lol
