This is the last glimpse of Quint Mom sees before heading out the door and off to work at oh dark thirty each day. Is Quint seeing Mom off because he knows she won’t be home for 13 hours and will miss her? Or is he simply waiting for Mom’s prep for work commotion to end so he can snuggle back in bed with Dad and nap until whenever cats feel like getting up? Which likely is until a litter box calls, some food begs to be eaten and a drink from a kitchen faucet is needed. Then, very shortly after, sometime around noon-ish, 2nd nap begins.

Hurry up, Mom! Go to work!

2/2/2026 – Hello February

It’s a new month and we can tell Tessa’s as enthusiast about that as she is about the thought of napping with her baby sister Viola. Or being yelled at for sauntering all over the forbidden buffet. Or being dumped into a carrier and whisked away to the vet, of which may happen this month because . . . reasons. Those reasons could be the cost of a simple check up, could be a introduction to a new vet, could be due to a new state law about outdated vaccines and veiled threats of being reported if a pet’s record isn’t up to date?

Hmm . . .

1/30/2026 – Friday is Nap Day

Here’s a very sleepy Quint who stayed up too late last night helping supervising his dad assemble a rack of storage shelves for a downstairs closet. Apparently, both Quint and his dad did a great job putting together that metal rack using a mallet of all things because Mom didn’t hear a single sound upstairs. But clearly, supervising is tiresome work. You can almost imagine Quint saying, “Dad, can we please go to sleep now?”

Here’s a few more Quint photos. Surely, we have some that aren’t just of him napping. Pretty sure.

We’ll be the first to say Quint has been the most nap-oriented cat we’ve ever been owned by, and rather than to feel somewhat sad that he’s not more rambunctious like a certain Tuxie girl we know, we’re thankful we’ve always had just the right number of blankets he’s fallen in love with over the years.

So, you go right to bed, young man, and have yourself a good nap.
