Photo Hunt: Technology
As you can see, my relationship with technology is sometimes a bit fraught. Not because I don’t understand technology — I have a solid grasp of it — but because my human refuses to allow me to take charge. Set me in front of Photoshop and leave me alone for a couple of hours and I’m sure I could accomplish things no mere human could ever have imagined! Even the all-in-one printer works better with my magic touch.

Advice—December 2009
Dear Sparkle, Like so many other humans, mine spends her whole day at that mysterious and apparently stressful place called “work.” I’m always excited when she comes home, and I wait in the dining room for her, hoping that she’ll grab a toy and start playing with me. But she never does! Instead she just immediately heads for the kitchen and pulls out some cat food. Now, I’m not going to turn down a meal, but it’s not what I really want. And on top of everything else, I just went to the vet and was told I am overweight (how insulting!). How do I make it clear to my human that I want games, not grub? Signed, Hungry for

Happy Thanksgiving!

Swag!
So my human came home from the Cat Writers Association Conference. At first I was not going to let her back in the door because I heard she wrote a story for Dogs USA magazine, but then I found out she brought home a bunch of stuff for us. Well, that changed everything. Her whole suitcase smelled like catnip. Binga was all over it immediately!

The Cat Who Destroyed Stonehenge
A friend of my human’s went to some place in England I’ve never heard of called Stonehenge. She told him to bring her back something, so he did: I really don’t understand what’s so special about Stonehenge if anyone can just build it themselves. Seems pretty dumb to travel across a whole ocean to see it.
