Leonard at rest. I need to get some video of him playing. He loves to chase beans and hide in boxes. He usually wants to play with us right after we go to bed.
On this evening he was so busy and comfortable sleeping he didn't give a damn about us moving around or the camera flash. Naturally, cue our friends arriving and hitting the doorbell while we were photographing him, ending the session before we could get any more....
We still miss The Girl, and he's not a cuddle cat, but we do love The Boy.

Belasco has a skinny Bart!
Az, that's a normal sleeping position for Mr. B.
Speaking of skinny Bart, he's lost .4 lbs from switching around a few food things. In April, he hit 22.6 and he's not really fat but he does have the whole belly flap thing going which after 4 years is kind of getting in the way. The new food only started about a week ago, so we'll see how it goes. Trying to give him more canned food and both can and kibble with more fiber. Next step is an automatic feeder that gives him smaller portions through the day.
Also got him a new toy that makes him jump all over his cat tree, which is pretty awesome.

Pretty much this. The belly is such an irresistible trap.

Has he knocked it over yet? Jack is just shy of 15 pounds and our tree thing sways alarmingly when he hits it at full speed.

It's a 4-post tree, even when he hits it at full speed, the most it does is sway. But that's mostly when he hits the high shelf in the back. The front post that held a cradle broke off years ago...and the nub of 2x4 that sticks out with a threaded rod end and staples is left there and he loves to rub his face on it.
He's way too long for it (he's about 2' from nose to butthole), and they don't even make trees that big anymore...

Totally pulling this out my proverbial posterior here, but a hunch in me says that a kitten would be better, since they are less threatening, territoriality speaking.
Our cats are brother and sister and they are assholes to each other after an absence. If one of them goes to the vet for even 45 minutes, the moment he/she comes home, the other one's hissing at him/her for the next week. After that, the one that stayed home calms down and starts grooming the other like usual.
This is most likely the vet smell causing this reaction. You might try taking both to the vet at the same time, even if one sits in the carrier in the waiting room the whole time.

Yes, I know I'm paranoid, but am I paranoid enough?

It's been a slow come back but rather better now than I was. I also recently started a facebook page again under the name of ZombieSigne Saboe. Saboe is my actual surname and will be official soon. Right now it's just two friends, my small but lovely family and the guy who does my ink and the woman who does my piercing. Anyone is welcome if they like, but it's pretty scary in there. Srsly scary. I think I've become even more extreme in the last two years. If that's possible. I really missed you guys even though I don't know you in person. Mostly. But I especially missed my little Schild. It was like someone invaded my womb and ripped out my little baby boy with one of those knuckle dusters that have spikes and a raggedy edged knife sticking out of it. Umm. You know what I mean. Srsly scary in here too!

WB! Also, less vodka while posting, Zombie :)

I should get back to nature, too. You know, like going to a shop for groceries instead of the computer. Maybe a condo in the woods that doesn't even have a health club or restaurant attached. Buy a car with only two cup holders or something. -Signe

It was only a matter of time after that come-on e-mail to me.  Seriously though, WB. (and what an odd coincidence.)

4:30 AM. Saw Signe post and checked the post date 3 times before realizing what I was seeing was not from a lack of sleep.
Welcome back! You were missed.

Someone patented using a laser pointer to play with a cat. I am serious. So, yeah, I guess every cat owner ever owes the "inventor" royalties here.

I traded in my fun blog for several legal blogs. Or, "blawgs," as the cutesy attorney blawgosphere likes to call 'em.
