Breakfast. I remember when I was young and finally put together words have meaning and reflect that meaning in their composition. The big illumination came from “headache.” My head aches. Ah! Breakfast equals break fast. In our household, the emphasis is on “fast.” As in NOW. I’ve been without a camera for months, making for […]

Coming up on the second anniversary of this blog, I have been in absentia for about a month, posting only occasionally during a time of great political turmoil between current events around the world, and in our domestic affairs, such as the grand juries refusing to indict the police who shot dead Michael Brown in […]
Elby, That Cat! is famous for his chewing. He is a connoisseur of string, the chords that raise blinds up and down, the string that keeps sweatpants up, and today…. Today, that little fiend chewed one of the straps of a new bra. TMI? I want to be that little lamb, belting out my distress! […]

Greyhounds wear muzzles when they are racing and when in strange environments for just those instances where best intentions don’t count. Dena & Elby, That Cat! Meet […]
It has been a crazy time here at Chasing Rabbit Holes over the last two weeks. Between Claire Has Flair’s passing and the apartment undergoing wild and loud maintenance, Elby That Cat! has bounced from one crisis to the next. Even before events began, Elby was climbing the walls, literally. If he was a little […]
By all means, click to enlarge that photo of Elby returning from being a successful hunter. He’s captured the ball in his mouth and is bringing it back to me to lay at my feet and received high praise for being such a mighty hunter. Uh-huh. This is the same cat, who, at 1:00 a.m. […]
The little boy has grown amazingly since he first arrived as a creamy Siamese-Lynx (markings on face, legs and a ring tail). He has legs like a basketball player and feet a German Shepard would be proud to display. Yesterday, I glanced at him and then glanced again – he seemed to have darkened overnight. […]
