153RD Carnival of the Cats

Oh the weather outside is getting frightful, and it makes the Internet so NOT delightful because now that it's started to snow, everything's slow, everything's slow, everything's slow ... especially Blogger! Anyway, sez Mousie, welcome to the 153rd edition of the Carnival of the Cats. Pull up your chairs and be prepared to be entertained!

Saturn 5 gives us a great picture of what our kitties might be thinking of us when we're not looking! Instructive for cat people as well as the non-cat people.

It looks like KeesKennis had the same issue we did with out Mouse. We thought Mouse was a she and found out to our great chagrin that he was not! Check out the formerly known as Lelu's revealing slide show!

Nancy at Unpaid Writer provides us with a moving account of what it's like to care for a loved kitty with diabetes.

Pookie blends in really well on this colorful love seat for felines!

One of today's entries was a picture in an email. We weren't sure what to do with it and so we uploaded it to photobucket to share with the rest of the revellers. Here is Joe Goodman's ragdoll:

Aw! Don't we all wish we had kittens scampering around the house after viewing A Kitten's Guide to Looking Cute while Unconscious on Chris Dolley's page!

ACM of Just Between Strangers shares some "old times" with kitten pictures of Pixel.

Cute little kittens Charlie and Eden are back at If at first you don't succeed... to recover from spay/neuter surgery. Get well quick!

Speaking of adorable kittens, our very own special guest star this week is the very lovable and personable Luka of the Netherlands!

Jamsodonnell of The Poor Mouth also has a guest this week: Csili, Evilest Cat in Transylvania

Rahel of Elms in the Yard shares a picture of a kitty stopping a moment to watch what's going on.

Better than having a blanket or throw is to be surrounded by big furry felines while you are watching your favorite TV show. Also from Blog d'Elisson is a lovely headshot of Queen Mutata followed by a most definitely not royal shot of her tummy.

Blueberry at Texas Oasis shares pictures of her black beauties Duncan and Jax. Also check out the cartoon at the bottom of the blog.

Nicky is bird watching at Mélange. I wonder if Nicky ever chitters at the birds the way Mouse and Amber do? It's like they're trying to convince the birdies to come closer! Also, here are two more views of feline tummies!

Amber sez, oh, all right, now you're allowed to post some of me. I might as well get into the act too!

Megan of Bad Kitty Cats shares some rare and or antique photos of the kitties. This looks like a fun blog we must come back and visit says Mouse! And who is that mysterious mysterious headless kittycat?

Mmmmmm boy does Gracie of MANX MNEWS love this banana! We loved the pictures! :)

Cats are ingenious at getting what they need when we are not around to serve them. Check out What Huckleberry of Stereophilia. Then Bagheera shows us the best way to look at humans.

TiGrr of Composite Drawlings is king of the armchairs, just like me says Kosmo.

For lots of laughs, check out Granddaddy Long Legs's post featuring funny pictures and videos of kitties doing hilarious things.

Mr. Gato of Enrevanche is flanked by his royal guard as he surveys his catdom. Best wishes to Barry Campbell's mom, hope she is doing much better!

Edison, stop chewing the power cord!We don't want you lighting up like a tree!

Leslie's Omnibus shares a nice close up of the divine Miss Marilyn. Miss Marilyn stayed home from the Lincoln State Cat Fair but Leslie attended. Here are some pictures of the judging. There was more than just judging at the cat show. Very interesting!

There is another cat in the picture and she is now making her move Ferdy of The Conservative Cat notes with some jealousy?

Gato-Azul shares the sweet story of Feliz. Half of a paragraph is in French, the other in English. We enjoyed this post!

Check out the cool pillow stuffed with a kitty's favorite drug of choice! Then, no Britney Spears cut for this gorgeous feline at Sisu's!

My, Bean Sidhe (Bannikins) of House of Chaos certainly is getting big but surely that is because he is partly Maine Coon, like our Amber.

"Here is what I think of getting my teeth cleaned at the dentist's!" Bow says to Val. Boy is Bow mad!

At Catymology's Darcy posts about not "The Year of the Cat" but about the year of the pig and other pop trash.

Check out all the cat art at Walking Prescott.

Cato of Catnip Anonymous has a confession to make.

What a nice picture of Tigger at Pet's Garden.

There are several adorable pictures of the kitties at Cats, Goats, Quotes, & Musings: Miss Emily, Georgia, Timothy, Bandit, and my favorite, Gracie AKA "Got Milk?"

JT of OldController shares pictures of felines relaxing in various ways just because I can!"

Check out the copycat snoozers at Furry Paws, they are so cute!

Here is a lovely picture of Lizzie, one of cuties at It's All Good.

And here is a glamour shot of Lyra, lovely feline from Music and Cats.

That is a really cool picture of Maddie watching birds and human critters through the window. There is also a nice pictures of Ivy but we were really taken with the one of Maddie. Read all about it at StrangeRanger!

Pushkin's not very impressed with action figure Jesus over at Begin Each Day As If It Were On Purpose. Maybe if he was a Wolverine figure...Here he says, "who me? Judgemental?"

And yup, this is not exactly Friday Cat Blogging but it does have two pictures of kitties and it is funny!

Reverse Barometer has a new blog and here it is. One of the kitties can forecast the weather and said there would be no ice storm. The kitty must not live in NJ because I hear little ice pellets hitting my window as I type. And the under-the-feet issue is totally familiar to us too!

From Mind of Mog comes Izzy Movie Monday, Tongue ‘n Toes Thursday #9,Tummy Tuesday #31, Scratch Me, Loafing around, and These be bad kittycats.

Morris of EGO enjoys the view from the window.

Oh, what a look of love or adoration on Grendel's face! Xenogere is so lucky, the only time our kitties look at us like that is when we have food!

Ah, what could be better on a February day than a nice cozy laundry basket? And what could be more fun than playing hide & seek in a bag?

A very moving tribute to Xaxu from TacJammer.

Well, that's it for today, folks. Be sure to check Carnival of the Cats to see where the next party will take place. So long for now!

Yeah, nitey night, stay dry and out of the snow and ice. Mouse? Mouse?

Mouse: Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz....
