In Which: I Recommend a Training Video.

Fatty Kitty does not usually lend his name to commercial enterprises or the endeavors of others.  However, in the interest of continued superiority of the Cat, I recommend the strategies employed by Simon's Cat.  Watch and Remember!

In Which: I Return. And I have a New Bed.

Here I am.  Are you glad to see me?  Of course you are.  I've been busy doing statistics.  Let's see: I now know the difference between descriptive statistics and inferential statistics.  See, I'm reading my textbook.

However, I prefer qualitative analysis.  But enough about me, what do you think of my new bed?

 

Of course, my bright wool blanket with the Killer Whale on it distracts from the central theme, which is that of wood, and support, 

 

and lots of room underneath to lounge and cough up hairballs.  They're threatening storage but so far, so good.  

The sailor decorated it for me: a tree to run up with my claws and meow for a couple of hours until I realize they're not going to get me.  Then I come down.  

and a bear foot.  

 That has something to do with the sailor and his bare feet.  He rarely wears socks.  This somewhat distresses the librarian, as she likes to knit socks.  Oh well, knit a kitty bed for me, I say.  On the other hand, I like the bed the sailor made me well enough.  I leave my hairs on it to show him my appreciation.  I think he understands; he mentions it every time I leave some for him.

Well, ta-ta for now.  I'm off to get groomed.  Grooming is big these days, with spring coming, and I must keep up appearances, you know.  Rrrrreeeeooowww!
