Confederacy of a Dunce

Friday, April 29, 2005

As many already know, we have been adopted by a nonhuman companion of feline origin, one Zosi (surname unknown) of "tuxedo" appearance. It is my sincere hope that this blog will not degenerate into the ravings of a lunatic cat lady¹, but now let me post some pictures and accompanying text which may predict otherwise:

Zosi is very friendly although it's hard to get her to look straight at a camera, and when she does, it may be with a slightly surly expression:

Her favorite spot in the whole house is sleeping in the lap of Serge, our large stuffed monkey (who doesn't seem to mind the company at all):

And she especially likes high places, like the tops of doors (photo not available due to uncooperative behavior) or, as pictured here, balancing precariously over a stairway:

¹ Although it is my understanding that one must be female, and live with more than simply a single cat, in order to be a "cat lady", I also understand that the admission of a cat to a household formerly occupied by zero (0) cats can be a gateway to living in squalor surrounded by tens if not hundreds of cats, and wearing only a bathrobe or housecoat at all hours of the day.
