She was a girlygirl and they were true men, the lords of creation, but she pitted her wits against them and she won.

A dilute tortoiseshell cat on a green daybed cover, looking into the
lens with big golden eyes. There's a look of determination as she edges her face into the sunlight, room shadow above her eyes, while her forelegs are stretched in front of her, paws reaching for more sunlight.

Bud and Lou weren't sure if the world they had landed in was supposed to be this way, or not.

It felt like puzzle box. Maybe there were treats to be found.

Against a manicured park background that looks assembled of many different pieces under different lighting conditions, two gray tabby cats are exploring the artificial terrain, one looking up towards the camera, the other ready to bound over a hill.

The biggest challenge to Cat Appreciation is prejudice against cats.

The text says "In a Purrfect World" and the tropical background of palm leaves and tranquil lagoon features a brown tabby cat sleeping on their stomach on a white, furry cat tree shelf.

I think Lou is perfect for Spencer Tracy remakes. Done with cats.

What's a favorite? I'd love to see him in an updated 20,000 Years in Sing Sing. And Rhiannon is a Bette Davis type.

A large and muscular gray tabby with abundant white underside and jaw has his white tipped paws clasped in front of his chest. He rests upon a blue paisley seating cube, with a bookcase and the edge of a radiator in the background.

Meet those Cat Exercise Needs, the easy way. - Care at the Way of Cats www.wayofcats.com/blog/cat-exe...

Cats need to run and climb and scratch. It's ALL exercise.

Set it up right, and they do most of it themselves.

Lou always understood how to play with delicate girl kittens, seen here with Rhiannon. He's a teen and she's nine months.

Two half-grown cats enjoy an extended-leg wrestle on a blue bedcover and a fuzzy gray cat pad, side by side. On the left is a big gray tabby teen cat with bold stripes on his legs, while he has the height of the cat pad and considerable size on his opponent, a small, dilute tortoiseshell kitten who has he patchy pat on one of his, pausing the game.

NEW POST! "But My Favorite Things," the cat says. - Ownership at the Way of Cats www.wayofcats.com/blog/my-favo...

Cats get upset when we move "my favorite things." It's not just territory.

It's personal.

Closeup of a dilute tortoiseshell cat face with diffused color patches of orange and cream among the soft gray. She has her eyes mostly closed, darkening them in shadow while her ears are wide at the base and far apart on her head, making a comic expression.

Actually cats are social animals. Not sure about libertarians…

His stripes make a beautiful pattern.

― Aldous Huxley
#TheDivineQueen #CatsofBlueSky #Cat #Cats #Humane #Rescue

In a photo landscape of grassy, rolling hills and tall evergreens shrouded and mist, a giant cat lies, nestled among the folds as though they are rumpled bedclothes, her paws relaxed in front of her. Her head is turned to the side, looking upward.
