With all these political cat memes going around, …
I have to consider my own situation: 70 years old today ❗️🎉 🥳

Photo: Smoky, my 2 ½ year old male Domestic Blue junior & Queen Schmoo, my 4 1/2 year old Calico Norwegian Forest Cat, catching some sun on the front porch about three weeks ago.

Local photographer took this outstanding photograph on October 6, 2024 on Boulder Lake, MN which was just a few miles northeast of my parents lake house when they were alive just 2 to 2 1/2 years ago, respectively. Remember lots of times going out in my little 12 foot fishing boat late at night, laying on the seats and looking up at the Aurora Borealis.

Great memories ❗️😎

Max, my 2 ¾ year old male Domestic Shorthair Classic Tabby cat, was the cause of intermittent sneezing and itching eyes and basically was the cause of an ongoing allergic reaction. He is a very interesting, very loud vocal kitty that followed me everywhere I went and loved on me like I was the most amazing human ever. 😘

He was also bullying my other two cats which really caused me some serious anxiety. Before Max, everything was fine allergy-wise. But after 10 months, I finally admitted to myself that Max was the cause and I returned him to the no kill animal shelter that I rescued him from back in late November last year. The house is very quiet now and I really miss him but this is for the best of all concerned. I keep thinking how confused he must be back at the shelter in “kitty lockup”, but I am hoping he finds a better forever home. 😢

Smoky, my 2 year old male Domestic Blue kitten and Max, my 2 1/2 year old male Domestic Shorthair Classic Tabby cat, watching the city’s road pothole patching crew work on our street through the Venetian blinds “kitty observation port” that I made for the cats to peer out in both north side windows. Their tails were both wagging with interest in the new goings on outside for them to check out. 🤨

Max, my 2 1/2 year old male Domestic Shorthair Classic Tabby cat resting at his favorite lookout post on one of the north windowsills, where I have taken out some of the slats from the Venetian blinds for the cats to look out and see stuff to meow about.

Smoky, my 2 year old male Domestic Blue cat and Max, my 2 1/2 year old male Domestic Shorthair Classic Tabby cat are now a bonded pair and sleep quite often on my hassock like this in my living room.

Max is a big fan of leaning on things he likes, like his human, his cat brother Smoky and his “favorite Tequila”. He’s my 2 1/2 year old male Domestic Shorthair Classic Tabby leaning on what he prefers which is always Jose Cuervo Especial Blue Agave Gold over Hornitos Repesado. Who knew? 😼🥃

Since I’ve been having severe balance issues and also fighting severe depression, I haven’t been able to get out and take many photographs like I would wish to do. But over the years, I’ve learned that I can only do what I can do when my health allows and lately my health is not allowing me to do much of anything. Haven’t even been able to ride my new Ducati motorcycle, but I will eventually (hopefully). Haven’t unwrapped my fishing/photography boat either. I’ll be turning 70 years old this fall and maybe I’m just expecting more than what my age allows. 🤨 Who knows?

My three felines basking in the warm morning sunshine last Friday in our back porch. They love basking like most cats do, watching the squirrels, birds and occasionally other critters on the deck or back stairs through the storm door window and just enjoying this wonderful springtime weather here at the western end of the Great Lakes. 👍🏼😎
