Dasein's Birthday

Today is Dasein's 10th anniversary on this planet! Thank you for coming to earth Dasein, my most beloved alien invader!

The Righteous Cats Brigade, Today (03.26.13)

March Lion (03.24.13)

Spring seems late in coming this year to the New York area. The March lion is still going strong, and there's no sign yet of  turning into a lamb.

It rains and it even snows, but the dogs were happy to catch some sunny weather this weekend. It was quite nice in the sun, although still chilly in the shades.

Dasein's eyes have the power to make you throw the ball, even against your will. 

Shanti, the Grass Sommelier

Dasein always gets the ball.

Dasein, always, always gets the ball.

Unlike the rest, Dr. Pooh is a thoughful gent.

This one has his own agenda. 

She who must be obeyed.

The Kids Are Fine!

Happy Birthday DASEIN!

Today, Feb. 19th, is Dasein's 7th birthday. (It is a well-known secret that Dasein is actually an invader from outer space, so her true age -- her space age -- is vast beyond reckoning, at least couple million light years.)

Dasein, mostly, disapproves

Dasein puts Shanti in her place. 

Dasein's opinion about the art of photography.

Zen Mondo Shanti

I'm reposting a photo cartoon I originally posted on Tumbler. (Buhi-Nyan Anarchy on Tumbler is a picture collection of flat-faced dogs, and some cats. Most of the pictures are not original but stuff I found on the web.)

I made this cartoon several years ago. The pictures were taken at my old apartment in Brooklyn.

So Much for Shanti's Philosophizing. Empty Stomach=Empty Mind. And their stomachs are always empty, or so they tell me. 

Kamu Goes to the Vet (Don't Worry! Nothing Serious!)

It's been super, super cold in New York this week. The temperature at night reached 15 degree F, which is about -9 degree C, but I had to take Kamu to the vet Tuesday night (Jan 22).  Tuesday morning I noticed that her right eye was half-closed. It seems that someone hit her. (Probably Shingen or Asha, since they are always mean to her.) I had to go to work but made an appointment with the vet for that evening. When I came home her eye looked much better, but I took her anyway. (But Boy, IT WAS COLD!!!)

The vet gave her a check up, and stained the eye to make sure that her cornea wasn't scratch. Thank goodness, her injury was just a scratch above the eye. The eye was a bit irritated, but fine. Nevertheless I was told to put in eye ointment for 3-5 days. Putting in eye ointment in a cat's eye is NOT EASY, but at least it's Kamu, and she is very gentle, unlike some of my other kids! (Like Shingen, I'm talking about you!)

LET ME OUT!!!!! Kamu is not Happy.

Captain Wu-Wei

Oh, you're such a hero, Captain Wu-Wei!  (NOT!!!! -- Unfortunately our dashing Captain is a bit of a chicken. He's shy, and hides whenever we have a visitor.)  Kamu is not very convincing as a maiden in distress, but she gets pick on sometime by Shingen & Asha, so needs some protection. Tempo is her champion. 

But Wu-Wei still is "Our Bestest Leader" of the Righteous Cats Brigade! Yeah!

Rocker Socrates

This post is for my friend Lastrami. Here's a photo from Halloween couple of years ago. (Actually it was 2009! How time flies!) Socrates went to an all pug Halloween costume contest. He went as Mick Pugger of the Rolling Bones. The first photo was taken by a professional photographer who was there.

Socrates actually managed to win the "FUNNIEST" prize!  But he was indignant since he thought he should have won the "COOLEST" prize!

Captain Wu-Wei  is a very sensitive type.

One day, as usual, Shingen & Asha was out on a date.

Someone was watching 

Captain, don't be sad. Asha just doesn't go for fluffy guys. It's not your fault that you're so fluffy.

 Dasein is happy that she's not fluffy

Socrates isn't fluffy, but he sheds (Because he's a pug.)

Kamu is worried that she may be semi-fluffy

 This is what Shanti thinks of fluffiness

 Promise thinks fluffiness is just fine

Shingen, looking pretty.  He's pretty, but he's a BAAAAAAAAAAD BOY!

Handsome Tempo

Unfortunately, Tempo & Shingen do not get along. It's mostly Shingen's fault for being a punk, and always pushing the envelop with the other cats.

Tempo weighs less than Shingen, but he still bests him. Although he's only the second in command of the Righteous Cats Brigade,  he is the de facto leader of the felines.

Happy New Year 2013 (Day 3)

So far Asha is not very impressed with the New Year. Ho, hum, everything's the same. The boys are not very bright, Kamu is positively retarded, and the dogs are beneath notice.

(Don't be that way, Asha. We know you're superior, so be a bit more generous! Not every cats, dogs, and human can be like you! And if you ask Dasein, she may object to you Weltanschauung.)

Tempo cleans Kamu's face as usual.

Shanti is wondering... something... 

Shingen is usually planning some mischief.
