The Dog has been a bit picky with her food lately, so Staff picked up a few random cans at the pet store in hopes of enticing her.

Experimental Dog Food #1, “100% Duck”, was a hit with The Dog.

It was also a hit with Jeff, who sniffed through the kitchen like a bloodhound until he located the empty 100% Duck can in the recycle bin.

In its first week The FURminator as been busy. Jeff and Rita shed much less during petting and their coats are noticeably thinned out.

Most Furminating is done outdoors due to the incredible clouds of cat fur that result. Despite all the fur removed thus far, there seems to be plenty still coming off.

Jeff wished to go out.

He attempted to communicate this to Staff telepathically, but was forced to resort to verbal commands.

Staff regrets the inconvenience.

Cats aren’t generally deep sleepers. They wake up instantly at the slightest disturbance, and even when they appear to be sleeping they are at least a little bit awake.

El Jefe, however, sometimes passes beyond sleep into a kind of mini-coma. He melts into the couch like a great orange puddle and snores. The Staff has petted, poked, and prodded him while he’s in that state, eliciting no reaction whatsoever. Once we trimmed all the points off his front claws and he still didn’t wake up. At all.

Here is a video of Jeff dreaming. He’s probably dreaming scenes of horrific carnage, but it’s quite cute anyway.

Jeff has a toy cigar full of top-quality catnip. Jeff loves his cigar.
