Of slime and flies.

Fashion is ephemeral. One day something is trending hot and everyone has to wear it/do it… the next day it’s passé. Here’s hoping this never catches on, because honestly? Eew.

Sorry, but that just looks like five globs of mucus…. and if I don’t eat the slimy shellfish? I certainly don’t want them on the end of my fingers.

I added the perfect glass to the man cave bar shelf yesterday. Because I do, to both.

It’s official, I will be calling our vacuum the rollsuck supreme from now on.

Yeah, because I need Dudley to stare at me more than he does already . Not!

And speaking of Dudley, for your viewing pleasure here’s a quick clip of him enjoying his latest hobby. Fly catching.

And while it’s a bit disgusting he insists on eating them? On a positive note, our house will be fly free for the foreseeable future.

Dudley does not need a spaceship.

Yes, this really is a thing.

And they’re not exactly giving them away either.

Dudley also doesn’t need a scratcher that looks like a sardine can.

I mean, Christ…. look what happened to this poor cat when he used it.

No thank you annoying Facebook algorithm, Dudley will live quite happily without this as well.

I’m sure the cat in the advertisement would much rather have had a bowl of tuna.

And will be pooping in his parents slippers as soon as they go to sleep tonight.

Cats be crazy.

Lord Dudley Mountcatten is a constant source of entertainment.

And not just a little bit goofy.

But who can blame him? When you have a fun toy permanently attached to your ass, you have to make the most of it….

He’s a weirdo.

But a lovable weirdo.

Because isn’t that the very best kind?

Lord Dudley Mountcatten does not exert himself unnecessarily.

But he has been known to assume some strange positions.

Not all of them graceful.

Truthfully, I’m jealous.

I haven’t been that limber in years…

Crazy cat lady checking in.

Yes, after posting one cute Dudley Mountcatten picture…. Facebook has decided that I need to see all the ridiculous things cat owners purchase while genuflecting before the altar of their furry diety.

No.

I’m sorry, but I feel absolutely no need to cuddle a stuffed cat log. Although, they would make an interesting club to whack the husband with when he gets out of line.

Oh no, Hell no.

While I did chortle over the plethora of Bernie in his quintessentially New England winter attire memes, I have no desire for a personalized cat version on my wall.

Hmm. Dead rodent door knocker? Only if it comes in a red squirrel version…

I’ve plugged a lot of things into my computer, but never a tuna.

This has got to be the most bizarre cat toy ever.

And while I have to admit plugging a fish into my computer does hold a certain attraction….

I think it’s safe to say the minute that fish started flapping Lord Dudley would run for the hills.

But damn, look how joyful it made this particular feline.

Should we further contemplate why this cat is so deliriously happy to have a vibrating tuna on his lap?

I think not.

One chill little dude.

Lord Dudley Mountcatten is relaxed and finally feeling like this is home.

He’s adjusting to our routine and no longer runs at loud noises.

The vacuum cleaner is still regarded as an evil entity, but he’ll happily sit at my feet while I blow dry my hair.

The living room furniture seems to be his favorite…

And I have to say I’m a bit jealous at how much sound sleep he gets.

Life is good for this little guy.

And us.

😊

He didn’t get the memo.

Lord Dudley Mountcatten is a well behaved cat. He’s a dainty eater who doesn’t bite, howl or beg. He does however scratch the furniture on occasion. Wanting to nip this habit in the bud, I purchased numerous scratch worthy substitutes…. none of which have worked.
