Notice Anything Different?

I was hoping to hold out until version 2.0.5 of WordPress comes out in a few days, but a problem with the blog this morning has convinced me to speed up the process.

So far it looks like the 2.0.4 upgrade is working. I’ve been fiddling around with different WordPress themes, so you’re likely to see a few different looks on this site over the next few days until I settle on one. Or more likely, until I learn to tweak one the way I want it.

In and Out

Scooby, who owns 4 of the 12 Little Cat Feet at the blog of the same name, is being tormented by a squirrel on HIS property while he watches from inside.

Our own Lizzie Bennet used to be too scared to go outside, but one day she seemed to decide to change. (However, like all the other Good Cats, she goes out only when supervised by one of her humans.) Details of this Good memory can be read just around the cybercorner at “What a Good Cat!”

Keep Your Eye on the Ball…

A soccer ball is supposed to be perfectly round, but it still can take some funny bounces.

Now That’s Cold

It’s not hard to make a delicious homemade ice cream. You just have to make sure you have quality ingredients: Milk, heavy cream, real vanilla , sugar, and oh yes, liquid nitrogen.

Summer Breakfast

Posted in Good Food, The Good things in life at 0:05

Poring over boxscores in the morning paper while enjoying a ham and cheese omelet that Pat just made… a definite “life is Good” moment… and a reminder that we all should, as Warren Zevon put it, “Enjoy every sandwich.”

What is a Good Cat?

Posted in Cats, What is a Good Cat? at 0:05

The sense of smell in cats is much more highly developed than that of humans.

And, as Nicky, our little black Gatito Perfecto shows here, one way cats use the sense of smell is to find lady cats who are, shall we say, receptive. Lizzie Bennet tolerates Nicky’s sniffing about her nether regions, for although both cats may be willing to follow through, sadly for them, neither one is able. But the fact that the instinct is still there shows that both Lizzie and Nicky are indeed Good Cats.

The Ultimate Link

Video of a couple of cute kittens wrestling is good to begin with. Add a mock UFC ring and some creative audio-video editing, and the result is: Ultimate Fighting Cats.
