Ten Cats by Graham Harrop for January 02, 2025

30 cents an ounce; had to have happened very long ago. So how old ARE you guys ?

“Behave” as defined by humans or “behave” as defined by felines?

I see Ches has a partner in crime. Swear it was 20 years ago? that this strip started

I often tell my kitties to be good as I head out the door to work, too.

Today is:

NATIONAL SCIENCE FICTION DAY

PERSONAL TRAINER AWARENESS DAY

NATIONAL CREAM PUFF DAY

NATIONAL BUFFET DAY

WORLD INTROVERT DAY

According to some people, you’re supposed to wait until January 6th to take down your Christmas tree. I was going to wait a few days and take my tree down on Monday, but I think I’ll take it down today instead. It isn’t looking very nice anymore since the cats have been climbing in it (I haven’t caught them at it, but I see bent branches that suggest I’ve had cats sitting in them) and they’ve been knocking ornaments on the floor. Good thing my ornaments are mostly unbreakable and that the living room is carpeted. The tree is kind of a mess now, so I might as well take it down and restore order to the room.

I’m taking my holiday decor down today. I need to get the boxes back into the hall closet, and out of the middle of the floor.

Molly’s folded up crate takes up nearly all available space under the bed, so I spent yesterday reorganizing closet shelves for fall and Christmas stuff. Wish the rest of my house was now that tidy.

Always surprised to see our boy getting along with the queen.

I took down the Christmas decorations yesterday. I try to keep stuff organized so it will be easy next year. I put all my Fancy Feast ornaments in their original boxes so I write the year on each one.

Thanks for the giggles, GH!

Mine is usually “Moose, leave your brother alone.”

Good as gold. What does that really mean, anyway?

FREE ELDO!

You can tell this is an early strip. No way would Lily willingly hang out with Chesney nowadays. On another note, saw eight varied thrushes while out walking today.

11:30PM on Thursday and no kitties. It must really be snowing up in Grahams Neighborhood.

2:30 in the morning, Central Time, and still no new strip. Since I won’t likely come here to the comics in the morning hours, I guess I need to post the January third “holidays” here.

Friday, January third is:

NATIONAL CHOCOLATE COVERED CHERRY DAY. I can take these or leave these. Most of the time, I leave them.

NATIONAL DRINKING STRAW DAY

I got a new one in my email this morning. Thank goodness. What’s the start to the day without ‘Ten Cats’???

Must be a dog conspiracy….no new Ten Cats and no new Texts-From-Mittens

I got the mail one too, but no new post here.

Yep, rechecked my mail and have the update. In the meantime, I had hit Random and reread Chez finding his sea faring father. Fun stuff!
