It's been three years now since Gatisima went on to the big tuna can in the sky, but we still miss her. She was a great kitty, and she never missed an opportunity to show her disgust with us, and I really miss that.

It's been a year and Generalissima Gatisima is still dead. I guess that should be expected, but we still don't miss her any less. We learned a lot from her, and even more after she left, but if I could hit on the single biggest lesson I learned from her it'd be this:
Leave me the fuck alone!
Think of all the trouble we'd stay out of if we just left cranky people alone?

Anyhoo, here's one of her last pictures, before she knew how sick she really was. We were watching President Reagan's funeral on TV, and she looked remarkably normal, but that was before we saw the urine stain under her butt. Poor girl.


I hope the mice are as slow as you want them to be, and the tuna cans are never empty.

Time for some Friday cat blogging. Here, yet again, is Gatisima, with the only look on her face she's ever had: Pissed off.

Leave. Me. Alone.

The 37th Carnival of Cats is over at The People's Republic of Seabrook and Gatisima got a link.

This can mean only one thing: I'm nuts.

And now for no particular reason, here's yet another picture of Gatisima.

Don't blame me, I voted for Gatisima.

I guess I gave up on my "obligatory Gatisima picture" thread a little too soon. Who knows, if I had kept it up, I would surely have been listed in The New York Times article about "cat blogging." [Registration required: What do you expect, they're the friggin' NYT?]
It would seem unlikely that the two blogs' authors could see eye-to-eye about anything. Yet Eschaton's Duncan Black (known as Atrios) and Instapundit's Glenn Reynolds have both taken part in a growing practice: turning over a blog on Friday to cat photographs.

"I'd just blogged a whole bunch of stuff about what was wrong with the world," Mr. Drum said. "And I turned around and I looked out the window, and there was one of my cats, just plonked out, looking like nothing was wrong with the world at all."
They tend to have that effect on people. If you missed the Gatisima parade in August, you can catch up here. [Also, here, here, and here.]

So, for no particular reason, the obligatory Gatisima picture.

Rest in Peace, Gatisima. I would say we'll miss you, but we've missed you ever since your kidney failure took you away from us many months ago.




I hope you go on to find even warmer paisley boxers to sleep on in the dryer.


Gatisima 1992(?)- August 3, 2004
We already miss you.
