A 3-D ST. PATRICK'S DAY!

The 3-Ds are all celebrating St. Patrick's Day with their significant others.  They've really gone all-out for the occasion, too!

Domino and her Milo are all hatted up for their treasure hunt.  Even if they didn't find that elusive pot 'o gold, at least they found enough to make them smile!

Dylan and his fiance Halle are even more fortunate.  They've unearthed an entire pot of the shiny yellow PURRecious metal!  It must be because of all those lucky clovers.

Dante and Sascha are both feeling very lucky, too.  They went on a leprechaun hunt and they each captured one of the slipPURRY little critters.  They're kind of wiggly, though, so they have to hold on tight.

To see what Dante does with his leprechaun, go to "All About Lacocoon Dante".

Here's wishing all of you as much happiness and good fortune as the 3-Ds and their mates!

WORDLESS WEDNESDAY WITH DYLAN: HUH?

TUXY TUESDAY WITH DOMINO: LOOKING FOR SPRING

Domino went out looking for Spring.

"I noes itz around heer sumware", says she.

But she waited ...

... and waited.

"Seems like dis cud take awhile, so I mite as well has a seat!".

"Wot about yoo?  Has yoo seen it anywares?"

3-D MANCAT MONDAY: JUST A LITTLE UNDER STANDING!

Dylan is STANDING on the deck bench.  As usual, he is on full alert.  Unbeknownst to him, Dante is UNDER the bench.  Dylan is aware that something is going on, but he can't quite figure it out.

 "I has sucha EARy feelin'!" says he.

At this point, Dante is right under Dylan's nose ...

... but Dylan still can't quite get a fix on him!

And that is the END of the TAIL ... "or at leest it will be wen I gets finished wif it!", says Dante.

3-D WORDLESS WEDNESDAY: DO UNTO OTHERS ...

TUXY TUESDAY WITH DOMINO: HITTING THE PAVEMENT!

Domino was out and about on one of our warmer days when all the snow had melted off the driveway. My friend, Susan, who was visiting from across the street, took my camera in hand and followed the little black-and-white one around.  She got right down at eye level with this stunning result.

Brave little tuxy cat is paving the way for all those who would follow (not least of which is her Auntie Susan)!

3-D MANCAT MONDAY: THE ODYSSEY!

Dante and Dylan are out in the back yard after the latest snow fall.  The snow is so deep that it has not only covered the patio table (which we leave out year round) but the tabletop is supporting another mountain of snow, as well.

Dante, as usual, is on a quest to find the most suitable spot to make his daily deposit.  Dylan is purely a spectator, because as we all know watching Dante doing his thing has become a real spectator sport.

So, you know this post will be a long one since it's titled "The Odyssey".  It's the story of two pussycats; one who embarked on a long and arduous journey under Arctic conditions and another who watched it all happen.  A more approPURRiate title may actually be "The ODDySEE", because what Dylan is seeing is quite odd indeed.

 Dante starts off by testing the snow on the back deck, while Dylan tries to keep things in balance.

 The snow is packed ...

... too tightly, though. 

 And further tests reveal that ...

 ... digging is imPAWSible.

 So with the tail winds, and his brother, at his back ...

 ... Dante starts off on his trek.

The surface of the snow is very firm as it easily supports Dante's weight.

Finally Dante stops on the far side of the mountain. 

 Here, he makes some headway, even though you can't actually see his head.

"I kin reely dig watchin' Dante dig", says Dylan ...

... but it's da smell aftahwahds dat's reely hawd ta take!"

Finally, Dante emerges from the dump site -- victorious!

 ... and embarks on the equally long journey home.

"Well, it's ovah at last", says Dylan.

"An' we has both survived to tell da tail!"

What are the ODDS?
