Nothing to see here. Just a completely innocent bathmat. Please go about your business.

A grey bathmat on a white tile floor. There is a very obvious large lump under the mat and the tip of a cat tail poking out. To the right of the mat, on the floor, is a yellow and blue bird toy.

My #cat #mrmittens is doing an FBI-style stakeout incognito at the foot of the bed. Lurking. He is ridiculously cute in the evenings.

And #mrmittens swears he is just admiring my handiwork. He assures me he isn’t about to knock any ornaments off. Again.

Mr. Mittens really wants to get at my knitting, but Chloe is in the way. Foiled again!

Mr. Mittens, a brown tabby with white bib and paws, is sitting on a side table in the background. He is staring intently at a knitting project of blue wool I am holding in the foreground. Between the cat and the knitting, Chloe, a black spaniel mix dog, is curled up on the gray couch.

Trying to put a tablecloth on the dining room table. @steggy says #mrmittens has put a lot of skill points into Detect Tablecloth. He knows.

I’m laying sick in bed the last couple days. The pets don’t know what to make of this. I’m sure they mean well, but the staring isn’t helping me feel better.

“Come play with us.”

For some reason this reminded me of the twin girls from The Shining.

Get #caturday kicked off with some doofusness from #mrmittens. Laying in wait, camouflaged under the bath mat, waiting for the time to spring onto the bird. #cats

#mrmittens is practicing his ostrich-style camouflage. When I took his photo, he knew the jig was up. So he hid in a different place.

A top down view onto a white tiled bathroom floor. There’s a white and grey floor mat with the back half of a tabby cat sticking out. His head and front paws are under the mat. His whole rear end and tail are plainly visible. A similar top down view of the same white tiled bathroom floor. This time a slightly different coloured mat has a tabby tail visible. A lot more cat is under the mat this time. But the tail is totally hanging out.

This is the classic look of a #cat who, having gone somewhere he has never been before, has no idea what to do now. Walking on a towel bar in the bathroom.

I eventually had to rescue #mrmittens because he got too many paws slipping through the bar and I was […]
