This gorgeous little beastie, sitting in a shelf in the employees' lounge, is my co-worker Ginger, who you must love. I've always been partial to marmalade cats, but I'd describe Ginger more as a Creamsicle cat:
I particularly love this picture, taken in failing light with my 2.0 megapixel phone camera. It's perhaps the best picture I've ever taken with such a limited camera- it captures a particularly sweet moment in time, and the combination of color palette and subject matter is gorgeous:
Ginger's brother, Fred (what were you expecting? I didn't name the cats, personally I would have named them Mog and Mamog), also works with me. While he is a handsome, handsome beast, he's not as photogenic as his sister, because he always "muffs up" the shot:
These two are my constant companions. Fred, in particular, follows me around like a dog. One night, he stayed with me throughout a quarter-mile walk from one end of the site to the other. One of my co-workers, seeing my orange and white shadow, had to comment, "Man, that cat loves you."
Just to prove that I am not passing off one cat twice (with the judicious application of some orange hair dye), here's a picture of Fred and Ginger doing their best impression of The Gates:
Wow, my first Caturday... it was nice, but, somehow, I thought it would be more special.
NOTE: While I had been planning on posting these pictures of my feline friends for a while, the final motivation for posting them today was this awesome local cat story.

He doesn't really love you (i.e., think you're his mother) unless he brings you "presents."
Oh, yeah: They dig that trench themselves?

I've told them on several occasions, "For pity's sake, kill that little critter quickly and cleanly, you fiend!"

I hitched them to a little plow- they're a yoked team.
Double Caturday at my place.
And yes, that cat on my deck DOES bring me presents. At least, I'm the one that has to clean them up.

See, I knew you was good people, BBBB.
The orbs told me.

Those photos--and the cats--are incredibly cute. For a novice Caturday-er, you did splendidly. *polite applause* :)
Is there a dogurday?
I better get back to Weekly Jack.
I don't do Caturday, but these two are cute enough.
Cats who act like dogs totally rule.
