Here is a post from August 2016. After almost nine years together, Frankie and Floki still play regularly. Floki chases Frankie in one direction, then they switch, and Frankie chases Floki the other way. https://badcatchris.com/2016/08/23/the-tolerant-kitty/?page_id=3785
We adopted Floki on the Fourth of July 2016. This post was from August 22 of that year. I didn't remember how long our cats had dealt with illnesses after Floki's adoption. https://badcatchris.com/2016/08/22/the-cycle-of-sickness/?page_id=3781
Rose ordered See's candy for Easter and put some in a gift bag for our next-door neighbor. She then asked me to bring the candy to her house the day before Easter. After arriving with the candy, my neighbor invited me inside. She is our neighbor who also has a cat named Frankie, but her…
It is hard to believe that our little baby, Floki, is already nine years old. It seems like yesterday that we brought the little screamer home. https://youtu.be/kJeHB2lIehE?si=O-8t17Y_9oiVVVwU Chris accepted Floki better than he did Frankie. https://youtu.be/2tGVJBe0gwA?si=TyiguIazze2xj7fz He seemed to grow up in no time. We mistakenly assumed Siamese cats were bigger than average but that…
A couple of months ago, I saw a video for a product called Ripple Rug. In the video, the cats were having a wonderful time going in and out of all the holes and crevices. After my wife saw the video, she agreed that we should order one from Chewy. So, we paid the forty-six…
Here is my second post about making homemade raw cat food from August 2016. I have learned over time that I get the best results with chicken, so I have stuck with that. Recently, the store was short on chicken, so I had to add forty percent turkey. I found I was throwing away half…
We are planning on going to our home in West Virginia in a couple of months. We haven't been there since 2021. The last couple of times we went, bringing the cats proved difficult. Since this is the first time we will be making the trip in an electric car, we need to plan for…
Before moving, I uncovered evidence that Chris was older than I thought when we adopted him. I posted about it here in January. I found a folder with 3/10/09 printed on it. Since he was at another shelter before the shelter we adopted him from, I assume that is his real birthday or at least…
Here is Frankie eleven years ago today, on March 7, 2014. This was on top of the china cabinet, which was a popular place for both Chris and Puck, although Puck needed my help to get up there. Since Frankie had only been in our house for about a month at the time, I'm sure…
Here is a post from July 2016, when Floki was still a kitten, and Chris's tail was another toy to play with. I bet it was hard for Chris to switch roles from annoyer to annoyee. https://badcatchris.com/2016/07/31/a-tail-of-two-kitties/?page_id=3692
Two weeks after we moved into our new home, a woman moved in next door. She saw me walking Frankie, and when I told her his name, she said, "Oh, my cat's name is Frankie, too." What are the odds? Her Frankie is a female tuxedo cat. She is allowed outside without a leash, although…
Here is a post I did at the end of July 2016 about how I make the cats' raw, homemade food. I do the exact same thing today, although now, they only get the food first thing in the morning. The rest of the day, they get a combination of canned food, kibble, and Stella…
I recently published the fourth book in my Last Healer mysteries series. You can read more about my writing process here. Here is the description from the book cover: In book four of the Last Healer Mysteries series, Katie and Joe witness the deadly crash of a prototype aircraft and save the life of one…
We adopted Frankie eleven years ago on the eighth of February, which means I missed his Gotcha Day by over two weeks. Fortunately, he doesn't seem too upset about it. When we adopted him, he was estimated to be three years old, so we also celebrate his birthday at this time. If I remember right,…
Here is a post from July 2016. Chris wore me down. I never could get rid of the dry food. Even now, we keep dry food out. If I let the bowls go empty, my wife will fill them. While she is filling them, she will say something like this to the cats, "Don't worry.…
Yesterday was the anniversary of my dad's passing in 1999. He was the kind of man that could do anything he set his mind to. I still miss him. Here he is in 1968. Yesterday was also the anniversary of Puck's passing in 2018. Puck was a good boy who suffered from urinary problems. He…
Work started the Saturday before last on our new screened room. Frankie was very interested. Unfortunately, they started late that day and could not finish before leaving on Sunday so we had to wait until yesterday afternoon before we could let the cats out there. Frankie went out right away, but Floki was more cautious.…
I noticed a couple of videos from last year that I intended to post but forgot about before I got around to uploading them. The first was when Frankie met an armadillo. It was on the tenth of August last year. https://youtu.be/ZrrtFyNr3bY?si=8Dg47ZGL_a2rDcTz The next one was taken on the fifth of October. I have several…
