Somewhere there is a similar (hard copy) photo essay of me and a bowl of “punch”. I am so glad I sowed my oats before social media!

  Amen to that one!

LOL, I love that moment when you’re watching them and you can just see the head collapse. They fit it so hard.

  Agreed! It has everything – suspense, intrigue, a hero for the ages…

This is what happens when you snort a little too much catnip.

My white noise app includes many different sounds of rain because I find that soothing and sleep inducing so I totally sympatize with the kitty.

+1 love (and I have the same water fountain for my monsterkittens too!)

Sorry to post a less happy comment to this thread – have you had the cat checked for kidney failure? If this has happened a few times, it might be worth having your cat looked at. We recently found out our kitty has a failing kidney and one of the signs to watch for was the cat falling asleep at the bowl. I am not a vet, but wanted to pass that along.
