    Ooh! I’d forgotten about this one! Look at those color-coded tumblefurs… So lovely!

    …I should vacuum, shouldn’t I?

    I love Pucky’s reaction to the tumbleweeds…he is such a sensitive finding beauty in everything. And of course Elvis is the Master of the Kitchen!!!

    Eyup. And there aren’t even any longhaired cats in the Big Pink House! I’m still finding Wilbur tumblefurs around, though that may be because I keep shooing them back under the sofa as I can’t bring myself to toss them outside just yet…And Sparky is doing her very best to make up for being a solo cat (which she quite enjoys, thank you, so no roomies, Hoomins, no matter how much you want extra cats) by producing quite a bit of fur.

    “Starry, Starry Night” recreated with cat hair dust bunnies. Sophie would be impressed.

    There seem to be more Puck colored tumbleweeds. Does that mean Puck has the thickest coat of fur?

    Tumblefurs in multiple colors! Of course Pucky is gobsmacked!

    Elvis perching on the dustpile: do you think this will end well, Elvis?

    The Sons of the Pioneers, featuring Roy Rogers: Tumbling Tumbleweed

    See them tumbling down

    Sweeping cat hair all around

    On the dust pile I’ll be found

    Refusing to budge from the tumbleweeds!

    …….

    Cares of the day are behind

    Know the kitchen is mine, all mine

    Right here is where you’ll find

    Me as I stand with the tumbleweeds!

    …….

    I know that the broom has gone

    As I begin singing a brand new song

    The fur keeps rolling along

    And I will never go wrong

    In the kitchen where I belong

    Refusing to budge with the tumbleweeds!

    I remember seeing an interview with Quentin Crisp, in which he said “There is no need to do any housework at all. After the first four years the dirt doesn’t get any worse.”

    Inspired by marilynnbyerly’s comment: Don McLean’s Vincent

    Furry, furry night

    Balls of fur in black and white

    And fur in beige, and gold take flight

    All guarded by one dignified soul

    …….

    Sweepings from the broom

    Tumblefur from runs before

    Circle from the kitchen floor

    As Elvis claims it all

    …….

    Now I understand

    What you tried to say to me

    The kitchen’s yours, it’s where you should be

    And now the fur must flee

    …….

    Humans don’t listen, they do not know how

    Perhaps they’ll listen now

    …….

    Furry, furry night

    Puck stands in spellbound awe

    Lupin describes what does befall

    And Goldie loves to play

    …….

    Woman with the broom

    Doing what she feels she must

    Elvis standing in the dust

    As he takes his stubborn stand

    …….

    Now I understand

    What you tried to say to me

    The kitchen’s yours, it’s where you should be

    And now the fur must flee

    …….

    Humans don’t listen, they do not know how

    Perhaps they’ll listen now

    …….

    For though they all love you

    The floor is swept anew

    And when no fur was left in sight

    On that furry, furry night

    You took your stand, as Siamese must do

    But I could’ve told you Elvis

    The kitchen floor was not meant for

    Tumblefur from cats as beautiful as you

    …….

    Furry, furry night

    Goldie runs in reckless joy

    Chasing fur balls like a toy

    As Puck watches and can’t forget

    …….

    Like the piles of dust you see

    The Woman asked you to move away

    But your stand you take today

    All dignified and strong!

    …….

    Now I understand

    What you tried to say to me

    The kitchen’s yours, it’s where you should be

    And now the fur must flee

    …….

    Humans don’t listen, they’re not listening still

    Perhaps they never will?

    Shouldn’t there be mixed piles? Except Goldie & Lupin, of course.

    Elvis – the Woman could have chosen to vacuum the floor instead of sweeping it.

    Better watch it Elvis…If the Woman can’t use the broom, you will not like the alternative mechanized cleaning device.

    I did have a cat that tried to ride the dry mop. I used her as the dry mop, then brushed the dust off her.

    As I’ve explained several times before, “cat hair” is actually the physical manifestation of subatomic wavicles similar to quarks, and called snoozons. A sufficiently high concentration of snoozons causes a gravity anomaly, essentially a small black hole. If this forms under the bed, it is relatively harmless except when trying to get up early for an important appointment. However, left free in the environment, anything could happen. Your comment, Dr. Harwood?

    Ambient cat fur takes many forms. If the Woman had used a stick vac Elvis would have either moved or attacked it.

    I’m suddenly hearing Don McLean with those three, boderless panels in the bottom row. And to paraphrase

    Furry tumbleweeds

    Cat hair palette buff and gold

    Look out on woman’s broom today

    With eyes that know the beauty in the air

    Elvis standing oh so still

    Sketch the kitties tumbling

    Goldie chases buff in the kitchen now

    In colors that’s the cat’s meow
