via Instagram ift.tt/2hSbVAY It's almost like they knew I was leaving tonight 😹ok they totally knew, they saw me packing my big teal suitcase. I'm gonna miss my snuggle muffins while I jet to my homeland for a family Christmas. Wish I could hit Edmonton too, but it's only Victoria this time. Look forward to the onslaught of photos! ... #canada #yvr #victoria #bc #britishcolumbia #family #christmas #wanderlust #adventure #meow #catsofinstagram #isisthecat #cleocatra

How nicely a cat sleeps,

sleeps with its paws and its gravity,

sleeps with its cruel claws,

and with its sanguinary blood,

sleeps with all the rings

which, like burnt circles,

compose the geology

of a tail the color of sand.

I would like to sleep like a cat

with all the hairs of time,

with the tongue of flint,

with the dry sex of fire

and after speaking with no one

to stretch myself over the whole world,

over the roof-tiles and the ground,

intensely determined

to go hunting the rats of dream.

I have seen how the cat as it slept

would undulate: the night

flowed in it like dark water,

and at times it was going to fall,

maybe it was going to plunge

into the naked snowdrifts,

or it grew so much as it slept

like a tiger's great-grandfather

that it overleapt in the darkness

roofs, clouds, and volanoes.

Sleep, sleep, nocturnal cat,

with your ceremonies of a bishop

and your mustache of stone:

supervise all our dreams,

manage the darkness

of our slumbered powers

with your sanguinary heart

and the long collar of your tail.

- Pablo Neruda, Cats' Dream

via Instagram ift.tt/1XP8aav This little kitty does not seem to be enjoying the thunder and lightning we're having in #Austin tonight. I can tell because she's laying on me and I can feel her little jumps. Aww. #kitty #kitten #isisthecat #storm #atx #lightning #thunder #meow

via Instagram ift.tt/2bCtiyu Guys! It finally happened! The @amazon box "double wide" got used. Normally these picky kitties separate into two smaller boxes but this time I caught them co-box snuggling. 😻 #meow #catsofinstagram #cats #isisthecat #cleocatra #snugglekitties
