[Loiosh, an orange tabby, is hunkered up in the front seat of the car, butt in the air, forepaws tucked close to his hindpaws, face shoved into the seat. He looks extremely awkward.] I don’t know what he was doing here, I really don’t.
[Loiosh, an orange tabby, is face-to-face with a torn-open packet of gooshy cat food.] Yes, this IS an entire post of the boys eating churu at the vet.
[A big glass measuring bowl is about halfway filled with pale blue liquid, swirled with brown powder. There’s a long spoon stuck in the bowl. Next to it is a container with deep cobalt blue powder with a blue-stained metal measuring spoon on top, and another container with a green lid.] Lastly & not remotely …
[Loiosh, an orange tabby wearing a blue bow tie, is laying on the roof of a cat stroller. His forepaws are tucked underneath him, and he looks curious and patient.] Waiting rooms are, inevitably, boring. Except when you’re in a waiting room with my boys.

[Major Tom is sitting in the front passenger seat of the car, all four legs stuck out in front of him. He’s looking off to the left, gaze soft, ears and whiskers relaxed.] Jasper was out getting coffee & hot chocolate for the ride. I was talking to my mom on the phone. The boys …
[A purple mat covers most of the surface of a wooden table. On it sits a big glass measuring bowl full of white, large-grain salt, a couple of small brown glass bottles, a scattering of metal measuring spoons, a black pen, and a small black notebook.] I’ve had the Design It Yourself listings up for …
[Loiosh is standing rather precariously with his hindpaws on my desk, his forepaws firmly planted in the cat bed about eight inches above the desk, and his head in the cat bed itself.] Loiosh keeps hovering at a weight lower than I’m really thrilled with; going to fighter practice regularly is helping, but not as …
