Caturday: Moo vs The Pill

 

Moo yucking

Because we found some unwanted guests emanating from Tiger (worms, probably pre-installed before he moved here from an insect-infested apartment), the whole feline crew got a dose of deworming. Moo, our lanky teenage optimist, was thrilled—a new experience! He even opened his mouth like a baby bird, ready for the mystery morsel.

I dropped in the pill.

And then… betrayal.

His eyes widened in cinematic disbelief. Was this poison? With operatic flair, he launched the pill halfway across the room, then began a dramatic tongue routine—rapid in-out flicks, punctuated by a chorus of “yuck, yuck, yuck, yuck…” that lasted a full minute. The only meow he ever uses came next—a high-pitched squeal of accusation.

Then, with the dignity of a wronged prince, he turned his back, leapt off the counter, and vanished into the bedroom.

Guess we’re shopping for the liquid version.

In Memoriam: Carl Don Leaver

Many authors have expressed not only condolences but also a sense of legacy from covers he designed that they love.  Here is his obituary: On August 16, 2021, Carl Don Leaver of San Juan Bautista passed into eternal rest.

His photographs graced national magazine covers and on a weekly basis the local paper of Hamilton, MT, the Ravalli Republican.
