Cat Blog Friday



For this Cat Blog Friday...

... 13 cats for the non-paraskavedekatriaphobes out there.

Past disasters linked to the number 13 hardly help triskaidekaphobics overcome their affliction.

The most famous is the Apollo 13 mission, launched on April 11, 1970 (the sum of 4, 11 and 70 equals 85 - which when added together comes to 13), from Pad 39 (three times 13) at 13:13 local time, and struck by an explosion on April 13.
-- "It's just bad luck that the 13th is so often a Friday", Electronic Telegraph, September 8, 1996

Happy Friday, everybody!

There's no safe place on this day for anyone.
If you choose to stay at home in bed all day, it's likely an airplane will crash into your bedroom.

I'm so opposite everyone else! Friday the 13th has usually been a good or very good day for me!

nanc: You wouldn't really, you big softie.

j.d.: That just really happened in Orlando & it wasn't the 13th.

tmw: My college honor society jersey has the number 13 on the back. I was a contrarian way back then.

angel: It's just another day.

nanc: I think that's called a mouse ;-)

kathy: I only counted the cats with full faces. There are only 13 of them :-P

I just snagged that graphic. I might have a use for it.

I have 4 cats, as most here know. They're having some social problems the past several weeks. I suspect that the 19-year-old is having kidney issues and that her condition is negatively affecting the others.

nanc said...

okay, so you caught me, cube...the cat's really white with multi-colored splotches...i can't get anything past you!

nanc said...

>^00^< ffffffffffft!

Phew..
That's a relief!

Was beginning to think that maybe Nanc was feeling a bit sick..

But she finally came through with a pkak!

Kathy-I wrote a letter and a comment elsewhere that gave her a kickstart! She was merrrowing and pkaking on the phone in my ear! LOL!
She liked what I said...I think! ;)
Good morning, G*D bless and Maranatha!

It should be a pic of thirteen black cats sitting under thirteen ladder rungs.

Actually, my cat is black and a handsome devil... I watch him like a hawk on days like this, and around Halloween. You just never know what sort of freak would love to get their hands on an all-black cat...

Brooke said...

AOW: My Jack just went through a bout, although at his young age he recovered quickly with an antibiotic and special diet.

Good luck to your elder cat, and to the kitties... Bad habits can be a bear to break.

cube said...

aow: I snagged it from somewhere too :-)

Cats go batty sometimes. Trying to decipher the reasons can be tough.

Hope Sheba feels better soon.

brooke: I couldn't find 13 black cats in one shot and I was in too much of a hurry to Photoshop it.
Maybe next time.

Glad Jack is doing well. We have our own handsome black devil (ingeniously named Felix) & we keep an eye on him around Halloween too.
