I brought my guitar stool out into the dance room for Laurie to try it out to see what height stool we needed to order for her to use at school. Sasha was really digging on it so I left it out for her to hangout on. But then Spunk couldn’t resist, and started eating the stool. So now there are several torn places on the seat. Spunk has to be one of the most destructive cats I have ever known.
“Whaddya talking about? Who? Moi? Me! ¿Me? Fi? Mise? Μου? Mij? Mir? मैं? Мне? Resa’s sweet little ‘Spunky Poo💋’? Do I look the the type who would eat a guitar stool?” YES!!!!!
“Oh wow, man! Like there’s some really heavy hallucinogens in that catnip! It’s like I can see strawberry catnip fields forever!”
I thought there would be a really good, colorful sunset out of these clouds last night. It didn’t happen. Everything turned gray. I think Gwendolyn’s catnip hallucinations confiscated all of the strawberry color out of the sky to color her forever strawberry catnip fields.
Off Center & Not Even 
Laurie has to furnish her own seating???
My thought as well!
I know cheap is cheap, but this is cheap.
It’s ridiculous.
It’s New Mexico.
This is New Mexico.
I thought about that too. If Colorado was to find out, they would want to give it a try. But, somehow, they’ll find a way to mess it up.
Public education is a sad state of existence down here. Laurie has 8th graders who are testing at 2nd and 3rd grade levels in math. The students don’t know their time’s tables.
For Laurie’s style of teaching she has to get her own furnishings.
The school pays for it, but yes she has been picking out some of her own furnishings. Thanks, David.
I worry that Omelette (newest addition to the family) is a destructo as well. I am not pleased.
Your roses are magnificent and I saw pics of tonight’s sunset and realised I missed a beauty over here… Oh well!
Hi Dale. The problem with Spunk is hi destructive tendencies have not mellowed with age.. Omelette? Is there yellow in the new addition to your family?
It’s hard to believe Spunk has done such a thing, is he being framed? Wishing Laurie the best , my teacher friend has to supply everything from
Her own pocket, paper towels etc. it’s unbelievable!
Laurie needs the stool so she can easily move between groups of students working on projects. The school gets money from DARE that she can use for furniture like stools. Your friend has to pay for supplies because the money that should go for school supplies was spent on AOC’s “Tax the Rich” Dress and $30K ticket to the rich folks’ gala.
Lol! It’s actually because Florida doesn’t give a damn about its teachers until their gone.
Most of the teachers are gone here, and New Mexico still doesn’t give a damn about teachers.
It’s a shame. They are so important, they hold the future in their hands.
Let us home they catch up at some point.
Yes, but Spunks looks so adorable.
My love to Laurie.
Don’t let that adorable look fool you. Thanks, Gabriela.
My pleasure 😊
Speaking of cats, how are your lovely kitties? How is your lovely self? Are you getting settled into classes?
I am in full swing Timothy. Thank you for asking. As for the kitties I am really unhappy. I was In school most of the day. I ironed something in the morning before leaving and Maya enter that room. I did not see her. I closed the door and left. Came back at 7 pm and start catching up with my email. An hour after I heart noises upstairs. It sounded like a commotion. None else heard anything. I called Maya and could hear her desperate little meows coming from upstairs. She was locked in that room the entire day. I understand this is a big house but still .., apparently nobody heard her meows and nobody asked where she could me. I am not a happy camper tonight. Sorry for going on a rant. I feel so sorry for Maya.
Sending purrs and tests to your lovely kitties 🐈⬛
You needed to rant for sure. Poor Maya. We are always checking to make sure we haven’t locked kitties in or out. They can be awfully sneaky. I hope Maya has forgiven you?
She is happy with me. In her mind I saved her. But she is unhappy with anyone else.
I can imagine. You are her hero.
😊
The days of cats and roses, and beautiful skies! Spunk looks so innocent. 🙂
Spunk knows how to play the innocent look cards. Don’t let his look fool you. Thanks, Lavinia.
I am always taken in by his sweet little face. 🙂
So is Laurie. I’m like let the rotten cat suffer. And Laurie says “But he gave me Spunk eyes!”
Awww your cats are cuties!! 🥰 Lovely pics, as always! The sky, ah! Blue ecstasy! 😌
Also, Spunk couldn’t look less innocent even if he tried 😆 He looks like a cat that’d say “Damn right, I’m DESTRUCTIVE! 😈”
He didn’t fool you. Thanks, Sam.
Spunk also looks like butter wouldn’t melt mind you! Such lovely pics as aye.
Hahaha! Thanks, Shey.
Sasha quite comfortably fills the stool 😉
She does. Thanks, Couriers.
Oh-oh…. you can of course look at it this way: your guitar stool is so cool and delicious that he can’t resist it!
Kitty Rose Sunset paradise!
Thanks, Marina. Spunk thanks you for optimistic take on his dirty deed.
Give him a stool …errr hug for me!!!! 😉
He’ll happily take both.
For sure [in a Valley girl accent!] 😂
Ya gotta love valley girls. And Tesla Girls. OMD!
Ya!!!!!
Beautiful roses.
Thanks, Teri!
I think Spunk just marked the stool as his.
He was not successful. It’s ben moved back into the studio. Thanks, YellowCable.
So Sasha is a music lover, and Spunk is not a fan? Does Spunk destroy only things he hates, or does he destroy indiscriminately?
Hi JYP. He destroys indiscriminately. Spunk loves music. He has recorded a couple of songs.
Ah…he takes after his human dad. (on the making music part , not on the destroying everything part!)
I’m not very destructive. Although, some people would say I totally destroy music, but that’s another matter. You can listen to Dampsta-Spunk: CODA at: https://offcenternoteven.com/2019/07/20/dumpsta-spunk-coda/
Love your kitties…
Thanks, KT. I found your comment in spam.
Doesn’t surprise me…I need to check mine more often. I don’t understand why some people’s comments end up there, especially when they’ve commented before, but it happens.
It makes no sense.
Nope…I’m bad about forgetting to check my spam folder. After reading your comment, I checked mine, and had two legitimate comments there from people who have commented on my posts before.
All your kitties have such unique personalities, Spunk has a lot of spunk! Love your photos, thanks for sharing Tim!
They do have their own personalities. Thanks, Tiffany.
More great shots and poses.
Thanks, needhamb.
I think the sunset colours had all slid down into the roses.
I think you are right. Thanks, Susan.
you are hysterical and those lil rascals so cute and those eyes. Spunk looks soooo innocent. love the light captured on her ear. You might try some of those catnip hallucinogens…. maybe the sky will look better to you… couldn’t get better to me. 🤣🤗🌷🤷♀️
Thanks, Cindy. They are cute and definitely rascels.
Ahhhhhhahahahahaha!
Gee, I hope Spunkie-Poo 💋 didn’t get sick from eating that stool!
How inconsiderate of you to leave the stool out for Spunkie-Poo 💋 to destroy!
Jeep wishes Spunkie-Poo 💋 could come here, and help her out with an Art Gown.
LMAO!
Hi Resa. I think I told you how Spunk used to slip into the closet and eat Laurie’s dresses? He and Jeep could make short work of an Art Gown.
Spunk survived the stool, as he does everything he eats. I was leaving the stool out for Sasha.
Yes, I understand you were leaving the stool out for Sasha. I think that is exactly why Spunkie-Poo 💋 ate it!
On looking of that pic of the ever so handsome Spunk, he does look a tad naughty! Love your kitties .. Hey Tim, do you feed your roses anything special? Such beauties
Thanks, Julie. We used to mix up time release rose food, Epsom salt and iron for the roses, but we’ve not fed them in a few years.
Your cats are such characters and you photograph them so beautifully, just doing what they do, and by the way your roses are just amazing as was the sunset even without all the brilliant colors. Love you guys, Joni xoxoxo
Thanks, Joni. The kitties send you kitty hugs and kitty kisses.
Think I’m with Spunk, too cute to be destructive.
He’s put a spell on you. Thanks, Brian.
