Cats on Tuesday - in which cats sit on a bench...

I mentioned a while back how the bench we have in our garden became an object of great interest and desire for the cats as soon as we moved it to a new position.  This is still the case.  It has become a place to rest, contemplate, plan strategies, and launch unprovoked attacks on other passing cats and humans.  Here is photographic evidence: in the first, Charlie surveys his kingdom and keeps an eye out for Little Creep (the cat who lives up the road and comes in to steal food), and in the second, Pepper goes into 'covert operations cat' mode by trying to disguise herself as a Japanese Maple.

Oh Pepper, I see you even though you don't think anyone can. Charlie is really sharp-eyed. My Cookie likes to relax in the sun in one of the rocking chairs on our front porch. Today he's not there though - the wind is making it rock and that makes Cookie nervous.

Great captures! (or should I say.."cat-tures"...hahahha, oh, I kill myself ;D). Bad joke aside...love the photos, especially of Pepper who could pass for the twin of my cat in Canada (who chose to stay living with my parents, way back when ;D)

Such beautiful pictures! Love, love Charlie! I lost one a few years ago to cancer. He looked a lot like Charlie. Pepper you are gorgeous and so are those red leaves behind you.

Charlie, you won't miss a thing with those sharp and alert eyes of yours.
I see you Pepper, you need to burrow under(or borrow) the leaves of the maple tree.

Pepper has the ideal fur for camouflage !
And Charlie as watchcat on the bench looks very handsome !

Such lovely pictures. That Japanese Maple disguise is very clever, Pepper!

Ellen Whyte said...

Oh there's nothing like the hide and pounce ninja cat - with maple leaf!

I love their very different surveillance styles. Charlie appears to want to both see and be seen, perhaps hoping to frighten off the thieving bastard just as he creeps into sight by striking his alert and intimidating "I'm in charge here!" pose, while Pepper goes for complete stealth. Pepper, you crack me up! And you look beautiful in Maple Leaf camo. ;-)

Barbara said...

Laloofah - LOL!!! Charlie has since brought shame on himself by allowing Little Creep into the kitchen and sitting there watching him nom the dish of food that was there!

Laloofah said...

No way!! It must be a set-up! Little Creep better watch his backside!
