    On Caturday, this little treasure likes to sit in the old chair on the balcony and watch the birds in between naps. 🐱

    When you’ve had a tooth out and still high on painkillers you too will sit and stare at the ceiling. 🐱

    An intense game of chase the ghost that only the cat can see has been underway for the last 10 minutes. 🐱

    Sitting on her red throne with her arms folded up. A favourite position and I always assume I’m being judged, probably for the lack of food despite her insistent demands. 🐱

    No need to panic, I’ve been here inside the chair the whole time. 🐱

    In retrospect, a recycling bin with an easy to open lid may not have been the best idea. 🐱

    Six years ago little Ms Ali came home with me from the Cat Cuddle Cafe rescue and immediately made herself at home. How could I not adopt her when she looked up at me with those big eyes. 😻🐱

    A work from home day means commute time is replaced with cat time and that’s a 200% better use of time. 🐱

    On Caturday we nap, unless there’s a bird outside then it’s an all systems alert. 🐈

    The cooler weather means the crochet blanket comes out to keep my feet warm. The cat loves to sleep on this blanket and will now spend the next few months curling up like this whenever I’m watching tv. 🐈

    The WFH supervisor is beginning to look unhappy with me. Most likely because she thinks food should have been provided by now.

    Sometimes you need a lot of patience when you live with a cat. There’s a reason I sometimes refer to Ms Ali as “my little lunatic”. 🐈

    The cat and I spend a lot of time together like this. Often when I’m wearing clothes I don’t want to get cat hair on so I keep this green towel handy.

    Spent 10 minutes looking everywhere for the cat as I thought she was in one of the bedrooms and the whole time she was hiding under the chair in the living room.

    While I might live alone I don’t live in solitude.
