Daily Photo: A Situation Involving the Basket

What is Mr. Sunshine thinking? That basket isn’t for big ninjas! A big blue bow and a yellow flower? Smokie tries to set him right on all this, but Bella quietly observes from the cat tree. She has a little crush on Mr. Sunshine. More on that later. But for now, the basket once again belongs to only Bella.

A Cat With…Two Bodies? 2014

Not sure what’s happening here…maybe I need to catch up on my sleep? Either side of Mewsette could actually be her body, but…both?

“Don’t worry,” says Mewsette, “I’ve got Mr. Sunshine under control.”

She’s pretty cool for laying on his head possibly smothering him.

My Basket Runneth Over, 2014

A slightly-too-small basket makes for a good tight cuddle for Mimi and Mewsette. One would think I’d get larger baskets, but then possibly the photos wouldn’t be as cute. And one thing I can say for this family of felines—they don’t mind being packed together into a small space. They just adapt to whatever is there.

Mimi had to reorganize after a while, though. Mewsette is a big girl.

Customizing the Bed, 2013

In his quest to burrow under the covers of my bed—after I had neatly made it up—Giuseppe manages to completely peel back the comforter and sheets and rolls himself into a cozy little kitty burrito.

Of course, he thinks we can’t see him.

A great way to spend a Saturday afternoon.

Could You Work In the Face of This? 2012

If you had to look at this all day, could you get any work done?

This is what I have to deal with at my computer day after day, and I ask you: is this fair? Should I have to deal with this sort of distraction while I’m trying to earn my living—and theirs? Do they do this intentionally to test me and see how committed I am to what I do? Or should I just be committed? How many photos do you suppose I took of these two while they cuddled cheek to cheek right there in front of me? Do you think I got anything at all done?

And if you have any doubt at the difficulty of working with such distractions, here is the full view of them on my desk, right in front of me.

This is hopeless. There is nothing I can do but gaze at them and take photos.

Somebody make it stop!

The top image may look familiar—last year when I posted this photo readers remarked, “This would make a great Valentine!” So I designed one!

I like the second image too, but it’s just not sharp enough to use as a closeup. I may try to do something else with it, though…
