It was overcast and rained on and off all day in Aruba today.  Lots of puddles and standing water.  Scott and Skylar tried the beach for an hour but got rained out.

I tried the kitchen.  And made a mess and lots of dishes.

The rain didn’t stop my neighbors’ cat from staring me down.

I was surprised she let me take these pictures, actually.

Cats, like small children, aren’t the best when it comes to posing for the camera.   Read: horrible.  The minute they see the camera come out, the change what they were doing which was the ‘perfect’ thing and you can kiss that Kodak moment goodbye.

I gave my neighbor some White Chocolate Vanilla Peanut Butter Puppy Chow because he keeps an eye on our house when we’re not here.

Gotta keep him buttered up.  He’s the nicest guy in the world.  We are blessed to have a neighbor like him.

I wonder if kitty ate any puppy chow?

Seriously, cats do have a sweet tooth.  I remember the cats that I had growing up going crazy over things like the frosting on cake.

I wonder what a cat would do with the vanilla cream cheese frosting on a Baked Cinnamon Bun Donut?

Questions:

Do you have any pets?

Currently we are pet-less, but I’ve had tons of cats and dogs over the years.  Every time I see a cute pet, I am tempted to get one.  My middle name used to be The Humane Society.

Do your pets have a favorite ‘human food’?

I know, I know, pets aren’t supposed to eat people food.  But they do.

Dogs will pretty much eat anything but I used to have a cat who would go nuts over cantaloupe or honeydew.  And frosting.

  1. I don’t currently have any pets, but growing up we always had a dog. My last dog loved carrots and ice cream and cheese, although not together!

  2. I grew up with cats, but now we have ferrets. The 2 girls we have now are from a ferret shelter. They are so incredibly fun. No people food for them. It was 23 here in Milw. this am, wish I were where you are :)

  3. Beautiful cats! I currently have 2. Love them to bits. I can not go the Humane Society because either I leave with a kitten or I leave a bawling mess. Jason approves of neither…;)

  4. Cute kitty pictures. We have 2 cats and 2 dogs. The cats are picky, cat food only. The dogs will try just about anything, just discovered Miko loves edamame.

  5. My kitty thinks he’s a dog, I swear he will eat ANYTHING! He hangs around the kitchen when I cook because he knows I drop things! True story! :) Also he’s an absolute ham for the camera, I have never seen anything like it! :D We also have two dogs, all three of them rescued which has led to our friends calling our house The Battersea Dogs Home! :/

  6. Currently no. I grew up with dogs, but wouldn’t want to have them in my tiny apartment. As soon as we can afford a house I want to get a dog again!

  7. My dog Snoops LOVES cheese! He can smell you opening a package no matter where he is in the house. We call him the dairy dog :)

  8. Ohh how cute! I have a Weimeraner and a Maltese terrier – they both LOVE cheese :) But will eat anything ‘human’ for sure..

  9. Awww :D What a cutie :D I have one golden retriever-he is huge. He’s full golden, but everyone always thinks he is mixed with Something because he’s the size of a lion.

  10. Aw, my kitties are pretty good at posing for the camera – vain little things! They also like bananas, cream cheese frosting and grilled haddock!!
