Ahh! to be Mini Cooper the youngest member of the Zoo. She is so precious. Very much like a dog, running with the pack and demanding attention, yet so beautifully cat too. She is one fearless cat and that sometimes can serve her well and at others scares the heck out of me. She is always loving on the other animals and humans, licking dog ears, and kneading human thighs. Sometimes I wonder where all those little scabs on my legs are from and then I remember Mini was sitting on my lap last night. Every cat that has blessed my family has been unique, but this one, well she is just so…. Mini Cooper.
Noel is every present when I am eating at the kitchen table. For some reason, she thinks there is some food in it for her. Sorry NoNo but Mom is having her morning coffee and that is just not good for you.
September seemed like a very Cat month in pictures.
It was very hot most of the month and it was the driest September on record. Seems like Maryland is turning into Florida. Still in the 90’s even now in October. Maybe I will put the dogs in bikinis for Halloween.
Why is it that I cannot resist jumping into a box, any box, no matter what the size. I feel obsessed with anything box. Is this normal? Should I seek professional help?
Sincerely, Binky

Dear Binky, Your obsession with boxes is absolutely cat-normal. We all do. I love a good box. A box makes me feel safe and is comfy and cozy. A good box gives me a great vantage point from which to jump out at my brother or sister cats, and even at those pesky dogs (if I wasn’t afraid Sofie would eat me). In a deep box, no one can crawl up behind me. As you can see in this video, boxes are a natural part of being feline. Just relax and enjoy your obsession. Your friend, Noel
Peanut loves Snapchatting me into different faces and accessories. I guess because I am white the Snap thinks I am a human because she can’t do that to any of the other animals. I am pretty beautiful. Peanut is moving tomorrow into her own place and won’t be around much to take silly pictures of me anymore. We will miss her. Now Mommy might have to download Snapchat and learn how to do it herself.
