October Bloopers, Plus Friendly Fill-Ins

We have two fun Friday features for you today. Real Cat Webster is taking a break (i.e., he and old SoLT could not think of a good word for Words with Webster this week!), so we decided to share some recent bloopers that we think you will enjoy. Then it's on to Friendly Fill-Ins.

First up is Real Cat Webster, who really likes to help old SoLT visit our blogging friends by, you know,

Prehistoric Cat News: Saber-Toothed Cats Lived in Europe Longer Than We Knew

An interesting news item flashed across our computer screen
last week, concerning new findings on ancient cats. Big cats. With big teeth.
It seems that some of these cats in Europe went extinct hundreds of thousands
of years later than previously thought, and that means these cats could still
have been around when modern humans stepped foot onto the European continent.

Cat of the Week: Kitty in Baltimore

Each week in this space, we feature an
older adult or senior cat (7 years +) in need of adoption or sponsorship. Mature
cats make great companions, and unlike kittens, they (probably) won’t climb the
curtains! Adopt an older cat, and help them enjoy the best years of their life.







Today, please say hello to Kitty.
Kitty is a 7-year-old lady who sports a lovely black coat. She is

Book Review: Frankencat

On this Mysterious Monday, we bring you a brief review of Frankencat, a Whales and Tails mystery by
Kathi Daley. This is book 13 in the series. We read and enjoyed the first book
in this series, Romeow and Juliet, but then we sort of lost track of the books (they come out so
quickly!). So we were happy to catch this one in time for Halloween.

Sunday Selfie: Webster & Webster

Real Cat Webster spent a fair amount of time in the office this week, and he took a moment one day to do a quick selfie. He thought this would be kind of cool because the computer monitor in the background was showing a Caturday Art that he was in.

Words with Webster: Tocks, Plus Friendly Fill-Ins

We have two fun Friday features for you today. First up is
Real Cat Webster, who has a cute anatomical word to share. After that, it’s on
to Friendly Fill-Ins!



Words with Webster

Hi, everybody! It’s me, Real Cat Webster. Welcome to Words
with Me. Today’s word is “tocks.” I think most of us know that “tocks” is a
cute short term for “buttocks.” When I went to the dictionary to get the

Cat Classics on Film: Ghost Cat (2004)

Today’s Cat Classic on Film might be called “The Cat Movie
of Many Titles.” This is because, as you may have guessed, it has been known by
a few titles—three, actually: Mrs.
Ashboro’s Cat, Ghost Cat, and The Cat That Came Back. The disc we got
from Netflix was titled Ghost Cat, so
we’ll go with that title.





Before we really get started, I should tell you that this is
not a scary movie.

Cats of the Week: New Moon and Twilight in Baltimore

Each week in this space, we feature an

Today we’re introducing brother-and-sister pair Twilight and New Moon. This great pair are both 7 years
