Cuddlebugs

My parents' cats Missy and Diego (a.k.a., Diggy; a.k.a., Robocat) are suuuuper cuddly and cuddled me the whole time I was at their house for the holiday this week.  I decided to put them together, and this is what happened.  And they were still cuddling a few hours later.

Balthus Cat

Jimmy and I were at the Met today and decided to check out the Balthus Cats and Girls exhibit.  I was pretty excited about the exhibit until I walked in--it became immediately apparent that Balthus was a pedophile.  (I cropped out the girl's crotch in this picture.)  I normally would have thoroughly enjoyed an exhibit revolving around a cat theme, but this was just a tad too disturbing.

Another Morningside Kitty

Jimmy and I went up to Columbia last night to see the pretty trees on campus.  On our walk from the train, we passed by Morningside Park, which is home to lots of kitty cats.  This one posed for a really long time so we could get its picture; I think he wondered what the heck we were doing.  I also saw two or three other cats run by in the distance, but they were too far away and it was too dark outside to get their pictures.

Amadeus and Friend

The pet store across from Jimmy's house reopened recently; it's now all fancy and expensive... but the nice thing is they've got three resident cats.  Here are two of them, Amadeus, the black one, and Amadeus' friend whose name escapes Jimmy.  It makes me wonder what happened to Puffy and Puffy's child, though :-C

Shy Cat

I saw this adorable cat on a neighbor's stoop yesterday, but by the time I got my phone out to take its picture it had run away from me down the alley.

Wong Choi

I was walking to the train from work today when I noticed another cat at Chinatown Building Supply.  (This is the same place where Kitty Kitty lives.  I wonder if Kitty Kitty is still there.)  I asked one of the men who works there what the cat's name is and he said "Wong Choi.  Wong Choi cat."  Jimmy told me that this means a cat that brings wealth, like those Japanese cats that wave.

Chuck

This is Chuck.  He lives in Westfield with Natasha, John, and Oreo.

Oreo

I went to visit my friend Natasha at her new apartment in Westfield and met her and John's kitty Oreo!  Oreo is suuuuuper cute, but kind of shy.  She is best friends with their Lab/Pitbull mix, Diesel.
