1. Sadly we’re a long way from spring, here in the Antipodes. Still a couple of months of hot and dry to get through.
   I recognized Bob, but who is the tabby? He looks just like my Harry.

   1. That’s Toby all wrapped up in a ball. He has been featured numerous times over the years; he is Pearl’s brother. One of these days I think I’ll do a sort-of roster of my cats..

      1. Please do! lol I love those grey/tan tabbies. Well, I love them all, but black cats and tabbies have a special spot in my heart. 🙂 Oh, along with white ones and tortoise shells….

      2. Toby has an especially nice striping and colors. He is very symmetrical . I once wrote a poem about his genetic coloring. Pearl is all black, totally. They had a black/white brother, and a light grey one….their Mom was very ecumenical. 🙂

      4. Their mother was a very small black cat that was literally rescued by grandsoninlaw Josh, a carpenter by trade, who came upon two kids tossing the kitten back and forth like a baseball. He stopped, confiscated the kitten, yelled at the kids, and rode around all day with her in his truck. They named her Pearl. She subsequently had the aforementioned four kittens. That’s a whole other story…

      5. Oh! Pearl sounds so much like my Pippi. Tiny, fluffy black rambo kitty, She was the most demonstrative cat I’ve ever had – I think she would have been happy being grafted to my shoulder. And so fierce to cats who invaded her territory. 🙂

      6. PJ (Pearl Jr) is aloof, but Toby is very affectionate. Alice has taken to napping on my chest, she’s almost too big now, and it annoys her when I try to manipulate my keyboard.

      7. lmao – Pippi’s boys [Harry and Golli] are both very affectionate, but Pippi was a total snuggle bunny. Golli just comes and plonks himself on my lap every now and then. And yes, they make reaching the keyboard quite tricky 🙂

      8. I had to remind Alice that the claw-grabbers should not be used to stay on the lap.

   2. It’s the end of January already, cold but not as cold as some years. We’ve had some snow, but just one noteworthy actual storm. Our weather is very erratic, unpredictable.

      1. Same here. We’ve had days during this summer when it felt more like [our] winter than summer. We’re staring down the barrel of climate change but like the frog in the pot, the change has been so gradual we haven’t felt it until now. 😦

      2. We are back in the climate change game…our new POTUS Joe Biden rejoined the Paris Climate Accord just yesterday. We’re back on the Humanity track. Love it.

      9. Various friends and family have lived in western time zones so I have practice deciding what time it is someplace else. I tried not to call in the middle of the night.
