10/28/2019 – Monday Memories

While we’re still *hunting for current photos of the Colehaus Cats after hard drive meltdowns, let’s look at a few from 2014:

Here’s a dignified Pia Bean from late summer 2014. Pia is always dignified. Yeah, she knows she’s a princess.

Not as dignified, but thankfully not in any trouble in this shot, Tessa demonstrates her classic Tuxi crossed paws/arms pose.

Not one to care one bit about being dignified or not, Viola Niblet is just about the same now as she was in 2014 – curious, curious, CURIOUS about EVERYTHING.

Now here’s an oldie. Vincent a.k.a. Vince was a blue-eyed, long-haired Turkish Van found during an ice storm at an apartment complex we once lived in. He was covered head to toe in mats and ice and with no owner to be found, we kept him. He tolerated being fur-clipped fairly well and loved his dad like no other.

This goes to show that sometimes, searching for files can uncover things that haven’t seen the light of day for decades. Mom honestly believed no digital photos of Vince existed.

*[Author’s edit] Files have been found, including Photoshop Elements! Just a few more tweaks and we should almost normal again!

10/25/2019 – Bath Time

We keep a clean house and every fall, our most favorite season of all, we deep clean every nook and cranny. Seeing Pia pitch in by cleaning her beloved kickstick from boyfriend Dexter of Cherry City Kitties, makes us think, okay, maybe we’ve taken this cleaning thing a bit too far.

Nice, Pia. We don’t see a single strand of fur.

We apologize again to all waiting to purchase Quint’s art for the holidays.

Dad has worked miracles and most of our computer files have been located. There’s still a few things here and there gone, like Microsoft Outlook and all our Outlook email including hundreds of comments, messages and requests from visitors and readers like you, and some other things are out of place but overall, Dad got those crisped drives to give up invaluable stuff before gasping their last. We apologize profusely for not being able to recover more quickly.

10/23/2019 – Wednesday’s Wow Moment

This is BIG NEWS! Hold on to yourselves!

Tessa and Viola, whose legendary hatred of one another has probably been written about by countless famous authors, probably, shared a single bowl of canned food, were actually touching noses, AND NO ONE WAS INJURED OR KILLED! There wasn’t even any growling! AMAZING!

That is all. You may now return to your regularly scheduled lives.
