31Oct25: facing up…

What’s up, Andy?

Andy hopped on the table to explore.

I confronted Andy. Bret and I had finished our rolls and coffee last Wednesday. There really wasn’t anything left for Andy to see or do on the table.

Nevertheless, just in case he was given detention for being a bad kitty, he shot me his best “kitten eyes.”

No regrets for trying to check things out, I’m sure.

Spooked now, he skedaddled!

30Oct25: kitty massage…

Andy likes kitty massage.

Going up and down…

…his spine is his favorite.

He wants it any time during the day.

It gets his purr motor going!

Of course…

…”scritching” his chin goes over well, too.

=(^+^)=

After coffee and rolls time was over Wednesday morning, Bret stood up to go home. Andy sensed an opportunity. He hopped on top of the cat tree by my bedroom door, a clear signal that he expected a kitty massage along his spine. Bret and I had to laugh at Andy’s bold move, but Bret, being a good guy who happened to be the one Andy targeted when he stood up, went along with it and massaged Andy along his spine. Andy purred!

=(^+^)=

Is Andy spoiled?

That pillow is one I intended to use for my comfort when watching television – and when I feel like I might conk
out while watching television – but that now is used more by Andy for his comfort than by me! Spoiled? Yes!

29Oct25: Andy likes it!

Andy saw me with a cup a quarter full of ice.

He wanted some.

Lick!

Sniff!

It kept slipping away from him.

Lick!

Yes, before long…

It fell off the lapboard.

That didn’t stop Andy from enjoying his ice.

28Oct25: proud…

Andy fights dematting.

Yet, amazingly, he also manages to demat himself! Here’s one of his demat efforts.

I’m proud of my kitty boy!

He earned his Greenies.

27Oct25: Andy stopped by…

Andy stopped by.

Of course, it was to nap under the lamp. He enjoys the heat off the light bulb.

26Oct25: “Murder Most Foul”

Of course Andy is interested in this classic Agatha Christie-inspired film! He’s a cat most curious!

Aw, yes. After a good murder mystery, a sound nap.

25Oct25: Another slow day?

Andy was a bit worn out.

I don’t know what he was up to when I was enjoying a chat and a meal with my fellow Class of 1966 classmates, but he must have enjoyed the wet food and ‘nip I gave him when I left!

Poor kitty! He’s really…

…zonked!

Come to think about it, I could use a nap, too.

24Oct25: No, really!

We keep saying we’ll be taking a day off from blogging, yet we keep blogging. The habit is strong! But. But. No,really! Today Andy and I just have to take a break. I’m going to the monthly Class of 1966 for lunch and need to get things ready for that. We’re having lasagna and cheesecake so far. Who knows yet who’s coming or what else is coming to the feast? I’ll photograph it, catch up on the doggos and kitties among us, hear news about our ever-dwindling cohort, and enjoy a tasty meal. That’s a busy day!

Besides, Andy’s on strike.

23Oct25: A very interesting place!

Andy had to stop by.

He was aware there was something to check out more closely.

Aw, yes! There it is!

Sniff! Sniff!

Yey another thing Andy needed to check out.

Don’t do it, Andy..! No!

So he kinda circled back and took a furtive sniff.

Clever kitty!

A brief look back there, but…

…he’s had…

…a…

…busy day.

22Oct25: taking a break…

Andy and I are taking a break today, OK? Thanks! I’m running behind and need to stay off line to get some things done.

What the heck!

I have to post something, even if it’s only Andy snoozing.

See that hint of his mommy’s orangey-brown tabby markings hiding in his supposedly all-black pelage?

Creepy SpongeBob Square,Pants is watching Andy sleep…. Watch out Andrew!

Hey!
I caught you snooping,
SB SP!

LOL!
