One of Tom’s absolute FAVOURITE parts of the woods: grass. I have explained to him that he is part cow.
Loiosh did no such thing! I’m lying, I just didn’t get a good picture of it.
![Loiosh, an orange tabby, stands facing the camera in a pine cone-dotted mountain meadow. His tail is a-twitch.](https://www.thevagabondtabby.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/20200818_150032.jpg)
He did, however, find a spot for a Dramatical Pose.
![Loiosh in profile, with ponderosa pines towering behind him. He's standing on a fallen tree.](https://www.thevagabondtabby.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/20200818_150153.jpg)
Photobombed by Tom, who cannot be arsed for dramatical posing.
![Loiosh is still on the tree, but facing the other direction. Tom's laying on the ground behind him. Both are staring fixedly off to the right.](https://www.thevagabondtabby.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/20200818_150130.jpg)
…well, FINE, if you INSIST
![Tom from the front. He's laying with his head up, gazing just to the right of the camera, both paws stretched out in front & his ears tilted to the sides.](https://www.thevagabondtabby.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/20200818_150330.jpg)
A dramatical paw.

& then I worked on the spiral thing for a while, & then Loiosh got bored,
![The big wire piece I was working on is laying on a small wooden table; Loiosh is standing on it, one of his hind paws right on one of the seaglass pieces.](https://www.thevagabondtabby.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/20200818_161625.jpg)
so we hadda go for another walk
![Loiosh in the distance. He stands facing away, towards the van, which is behind him; beyond the van, ponderosa pines stretch tall.](https://www.thevagabondtabby.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/20200818_164953.jpg)
but this one wasn’t very long at all.
![Loiosh is flopped out on the ground. all four paws & his tail stretched out; his eyes are closed but his head is still up.](https://www.thevagabondtabby.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/20200818_165719.jpg)
Right after I took this picture, he did that thing where he goes from ‘dozing’ to ‘really asleep’ & his head fell & almost hit the ground before he woke up & I laughed at him A LOT & then he was Really Angry.
This was posted originally to my Patreon, a little over a week ago.
If you want to see these posts sooner, & not incidentally help support me & my cats in our travels & such, the way to do that is to sign up as one of my Patrons for as little as a buck a month.
I’d REALLY like that.
