I posted these in weekly installments from March through September 2011. They're a sampling of how the namesake of this blog, our beloved cat, liked to spend his days.
 |
| "A" is for anchovies, especially fine on pizza. |
 |
| "B" is for bed, the best place in the house to take a nap. |
 |
| "C" is for cat, a small grey one. |
 |
| "D" is for dish, preferably with something yummy to eat in it. |
 |
| "E" is for elephant, unfortunate prey of our mighty hunter house cat - well, OK, it's just a stuffed, catnip elephant. |
 |
| "F" is for fish, so fun to play with (and perhaps eat?). |
 |
| "G" is for grass, kitty grass, that is, a nice appetizer to stimulate a discriminating palate. |
 |
| "H" is for hairball, which ended up in someone's shoe. |
 |
| "I" is for ice cream; French vanilla is especially fine, rather like milk. |
 |
| "J" is for jumping, as in from table to sofa to chair and back again. |
 |
| "K" is for kibbles, delicious right out of the box. |
 |
| "L" is for lap, a comfy place to curl up and receive lots of attention. |
 |
| "M" is for mouse, a fun play-fellow. Why's he looking so scared? |
 |
| "N" is for nap, a favorite occupation. |
 |
| "O" is for open, as in open the patio door so I can go out and survey my kingdom, or back in, or out again, or of course in again so I can munch on some food, then out... |
 |
| "P" is for paw prints, tracked all over newly cleaned hardwood floors. |
 |
| "Q" is for a quarter pound's worth of hamburger left unattended on a table. |
 |
| "R" is for red-breasted robin perched up in a tree. Will you come down and play with me? |
 |
| "S" is for the African Savanna, where our great grey hunter stalks the wildebeest - only in his dreams. |
 |
| "T" is for tree, a great place to hang out on a warm summer day. |
 |
| "U" is for under covers, a cozy place to snuggle for a nap. |
 |
| "V" is for veranda, a cool, shady spot to watch the world go by. |
 |
| "W" is for window, another great place to get a view of the kingdom. |
 |
| "X" is for eXtra food - you can never have enough (had to resort to this as there didn't appear to be any words beginning with "X" that our cat-friend approved of. He has no inclination to play to xylophone or sail on a xebec.). |
 |
| "Y" is for yarn, an amusing diversion, though maybe not as fun as a mouse (see cat-approved alphabet "M"). |
 |
| "Z" is for the zen of the small grey cat. He's a master of just "being". |
