Tatsuko, basking in the heat

Tatsuko, being a cat, likes things hot. It's hot in Kansas in the late summer. I close the vents in the upstairs of my house in the summer, because why cool the parts I don't use? So it's even hotter up there, usually about 10 degrees cooler than outside. Tatsuko spends the majority of the afternoons in the (empty) upstairs bedroom, basking:

"Aaaah, boiling hot, just the way I like it!"

Best,
Chris

I know from sad personal experience that even though she *seems* to be inviting a bellyrub, in reality she is pointy on 5 of her 6 ends and is just trying to lure you closer because she knows that you are made of meat.

That is so true. Actually, I think she might be inviting a bellyrub... of doooom! She likes the taste of human blood. She purrs when she mauls you, as if to say, "I'm harmless, well, except for this minor indiscretion."

Her fur looks really good in that picture. :)

She's a happy, healthy girl! Lighter than I'd like (under 7 pounds), but doesn't have any problems. So!

(Is that icon one of your new babies?)
