International Cat Day is no excuse to skip naps.

Two cats, black and white, unalike in dignity. The larger, fluffier cat sleeps in a graceful curl against the treadle of an antique Singer sewing machine. The smaller, short-haired cat dozes in sprawl, half on his back, hind legs splayed to the ceiling.

The Patchwork Terror’s mask is a little crooked.

It’s a little warm in here.

a black and white shorthair kitten sprawls on his back with hind legs fully spread and his little forepaws crooked of to one side. He’s fully asleep.

The Patchwork Terror and Lovecat.

a large fluffy black and white cat serves as a lounge pillow for a half grown shorthair black and white kitten. The kitten looks at the cat with love. The cat looks beleaguered.

A moment of peace before kitten shenanigans resume.

A large, fluffy black and white cat crouches on a middle platform of a tall cat tree, facing resolutely away from the paparazzi. Behind him, a half-grown black and white kitten stares at the paparazzi, fully aware of how stinking cute he is. There are paintings and masks on the wall behind the cat tree, and a window to the left, which is totally overexposing the cats, but the paparazzi wanted to document this rare moment of peaceful, almost-touching coexistence.

May your #caturday be spent with your favorite people, doing your favorite things.

A big fluffy black and white cat sleeps curled up against a leather patchwork bag on a sheepskin rug. A small black and white kitten is stretched out, asleep, perpendicular to the larger cat. Their legs and paws are overlapped and touching.

K. Eason@svartjagr· May 11

Absolutely not a trap.

A black and white kitten, mostly white is lying on his back with his paws in the air. His head is resting on a leopard print pillow, his feet are tucked under a person’s hip. he is fully asleep.

Seeing double.

a large, fluffy black and white cat crouches on the back of a black leather couch on top of a grey afghan. He gazes to the left, wondering what he has done to deserve his fate. On the seat of the couch, directly below this pensive cat, is a black and white kitten. He stares at the camera, contemplating his next act of mayhem.

But what if we made *friends* with the dragon?

A small white kitten with a black patch over one eye relaxes under the head and neck of large, brightly colored dragon stuffy easily three times bigger. The kitten looks smug.

Kodama would like to be your friend on this fine #caturday.

a small kitten with a black patch of fur over one eye is lying on the top platform of a cat tree at eye level. He stretches his paw toward the camera. His toebeans are pink and tiny.

K. Eason@svartjagr· Apr 10

The world is very large when you are very small. A little sooner than planned, but such is the way of cats. Kodama, meet the world.

a small kitten, mostly white with a near-perfect black spot on his ribs, and a black mask over one eye, sits on a red and black cat tree looking out the window. Whatever is out there, he is fascinated.

Happy 18th birthday to Louhi Philomena Hepzibah Rue, the runt of her litter, who makes up for a lack of size with an excess of sass.

a tiny black kitten sleeps on a bed between a pair of teddy bears, each of which is 3 times her size.

a small black cat with lambent yellow eyes stares accusingly at the paparazzi who have dared disturb her nap on a grey, much abused fake fleece pillow.

Surprise! It’s Valen- #caturday!

The Patchwork Terror when he first arrived six years ago.

The Patchwork Terror has a sunbeam and birds on this freakishly warm #caturday

A fluffy black and white cat is lying on the top shelf of a cat tree with his chin propped on the edge, squinting out an open window into a sun beam. There must be birds out there.

This monster didn’t finish growing and filling out until he was almost 6. Like, buddy, you gonna stop growing? No? How about now?

large black and white cat with a fluffy ruff lies primly beside and empty metal food dish. The paparazzi need to stop taking photos and feed him.

One small cat, self-folding.

A small black cat lies curled and sleeping exactly on the middle of two clean folded piles of laundry. Fur must be divided equally.

Just chillin on a #caturday.

a fluffy black and white cat balances on the narrow metal rail of a second story deck. A line of potted plants-agave, prickly pear, rosemary-gives him the delusion of thinking the paparazzi cannot see him.

We lost our 10 year old cat, Skugga, Monday to cancer 6 months after diagnosis. He had a fantastic summer murdering things on his walks (leashed. He was a murderboss). He got a last day in the sun. And there is a hole in this household exactly his shape.

a fluffy black cat stares suspiciously at the paparazzi, while enjoying a sunbeam on his cat-tree.

I challenged my students to dress up for extra credit, and I lead by example. (Also I love collecting the expressions from students as I march across campus. Some smile. Some whisper. Some--the few also in costume--make eye contact and nod knowingly.)

a blond woman wearing a tall witch hat festooned with feathers and a sheer veil hung with plastic spiders side-eyes the camera. Will she teach her writing class like this? SHE WILL.

National Black Cat Day! Tinycat & Murdercat share the cat-tree, a momentous occasion, b/c no one is hissing, biting, or fear-peeing because she's been pounced on by someone 2x her weight. (The very next moment, she started clawing the tree, and lo, those things came to pass, as foretold.)

The scene: a cat tree with several levels. A big fluffy black cat with green eyes sits on the penultimate level. His ears are back. Something is amiss! Below him, on the next level down and almost directly beneath him, sits a small, very petite shorthair black cat with wide yellow eyes. She looks like trouble.

K. Eason@svartjagr· Oct 18

Whether you protest or not on this #caturday, remember to take time to rest, and remember to bring your bestie.

two cats, one fluffy and black, and one fluffy and black and white, nap side by side on a bed, sharing what had been a pile of clean, folded laundry.

Happy monochromatic #caturday from the Patchwork Terror.

a black and white cat reclines against a large black and white pillow depicting wolves howling at the moon, all on a black leather couch.

This floofy gremlin had a flawless dental yesterday. I just need y’all to observe how thick and deep his fur is. #caturday

A fluffy black and white cat reclines underneath a coffee table. Extended in front of him is a four leg that has been shaved for surgery. There is about a half a centimeter depth difference between the shaved part of his leg and the fur around it

I mean I can’t work without the manager!

Did someone say it's Halloween season? Tinycat is ready.

a petite black cat with pale yellow eyes stares at the camera. she is lying primly, paws, tucked, on small bright orange meditation pillow.

On International Cat Day please have this slightly blurry photo of the kaiju in repose. #internationalcatday

a slightly blurry photo of two large fuzzy cats. The black one on the left is sprawled on a sheepskin rug beside a cat toy demogorgon. The black and white one is os jammed into a box with his paw hanging out to touch the black cat.

K. Eason@svartjagr· Jul 23

Both of my voids had stripes as kittens. Now Tinycat is turning reddish w/ black points (she’s 17). Murdercat’s just black with a smokey undercoat.

two black cats sit on a brown wood floor in front of a refrigerator. One of them is short haired and half the size of the other big fluffy one. They both seem unimpressed by the paparazzi.

A box and a new sushi: a good #caturday and a good birthday for the Patchwork Terror.

A black and white cat almost entirely concealed in a cardboard box sniffs a small cat toy sushi roll.

Murdercat and Tinycat. She’s 17, he’s 9.5.
