Welcome to the Aptenobytes version of the Carnival of the Cats. Feel free to wander around and browse the rest of the site. It's been relatively quiet for the last little while, but there are some things in the archives worth exploring, including a lot of pictures of the family cats.
As we all know, cats are natural born anarchists. They do not accept your authority, or anyone else's for that matter.
They have a long history as symbols of anarchism, particularly the black cat, and the wildcat:
So, continue on into today's entries into the Carnival....
Mr. T/Desmond passed through Virgil's life. Something that has happened to many cat lovers.
Boxing Alcibiades shows that a cat will play with a dangly thing while hanging at waist height. I don't know about you, but as a man, this is not something I plan on attempting to teach my cat.
Barry at Enravanche submitted his photo of Mr. Gato inspecting his dog tags. Judging by his expression, he's about to do something with them....
Bothenook at Geezer's corner continues the theme of cats swatting at things with spooky kat about to pounce on his lens cap.
srp at Mélange shares with us Chloe and Clover, a pair of absolutely gorgeous looking sisters.
Míro is captured in motion by a digital camera, which makes for a very cool photo. Miro is also joined by Yoshi, who I am guessing is a dog judging by his nose.
Matata helps put the china away at Blog d'Ellison... I'm guessing that Matata is at least partially Russian Blue. My furleigh likes cupboards and drawers too...
Claudie is posing very elegantly over at PagesTurned, showing off a pair of gorgeous green eyes.
Tinker is draped on the desk of Curiouser & Curiouser, showing how a cat can disrupt work like any anarchist...
The People's Republic of Seabrook reminds us that really, we're all just trying to make the world safe for cute kittens.
Tommy over at AlmostAverage shows us an anarchist that has probably just read the anarchist cookbook.
Beth at My Vast Right Wing Conspiracy uses her one and only cat post to show a cute little face off. My money's on the little black one.
Josh gives us a sleeping Atticus.
Rob shows us a close up of a cat explaining that he knows where Robs sleeps, and will do what it takes to ensure that food keeps coming.... or else.
The Robot Vegetable sent me this parable about class warfare. At least I think that's what it is.
Julie at Lone Prairie Blog shares this close up a very respectable cat.
Darcey at DustMyBroom shares a quote about the greatness of cats. Really, only the truly free can pick their butt in public...
Cassie at Scribblings wakes Mouse for a chin scratch.
The inimitable ogre gives us one that has to be filed under cute. Somebody had to make that pun.
SBPoet at Watermark gives us this remarkably good picture in her offering.
Julie at I-Pets.com blog gives us Grace, Smoke and Bandit. This is Smoke.
Chap at Chapomatic advised me to bring insulin. It was good advice. Violet is just too cute in a baby carriage.
Ded space has Roxie sleeping on perhaps the uglies couch arm I've ever seen. The cat is cute though.
Maggie at maggie's meanderings claims that this cat is hiding. Looks more like a hunting pose to me.
Jae at View From The Tower sounds understandably scared of this cat.
Romeocat at CathouseChat shares this cat who is patently, and obviously Caught. What at, or for, I have no idea, but definitely not innocent.
Chuq shows us a moonwalking cat over at 7610.
Matt at the Tattered Coat gives us a pictorial rendition of the word disgruntled.
Catherine at CathColl.net has a photo of Emily looking very proud of herself on an upturned mattress.
Tiny over at Sisu is giving SpongeBob a bit of an ownership rub. Marking as it were with familiarization pheromones.
Mog at Mind of Mog contributed this lovely picture of Meowza.
Finally, Phin submitted a bit of a parody. Enjoy it.
This is my first time hosting a carnival, so if I've missed someone, or failed to do a trackback, let me know and I'll fix it.
OK... here's some more entries... early and late submissions that I just got...
Frightwig at Sunappled Wood catches a kitty peeking out from a staircase.
Ego's Marting shares with us his two portraits of his cat: "cat sleeping" & "cat cleaning".
Ferdy the Conservative Cat proves that the Interloper isn't demonical, by looking demonical...
AMCGLTD's Ellen captured this moment of interspecies rivalry.
Emerson at TacJammer gives us our second dose of Terminal Cute Kitten.
Beth at the Donavan prepares to groom Gandalf. Gandalf is not happy about this.
Danny at JackLewis.net passes on a story of a woman getting restitution for the loss of one of her cats.
Noah goes dumpster diving at The Oubliette.
Despite getting 'denied access' from the cathouse, I managed to snag this image of the kitties doing some gardening.
Lucky should perhaps be an indoor kitty after this incident defending his 30 acres.
Sasha is helping with the ironing over at Music and Cats. I'd advise that Kimberly buy those sticky rollers by the case like I do. ;)
Leela seems to planning an insurrection judging by the tale behind this image:
Caitlin at Cat Out Loud visits some street cats that are squatting underneath a trailer.
"Should I stay or should I go?" wonders The Duchess over at ElmsInTheYard.
Can't log into blogger from home, unfortunately, but will link up asap.
Great job. I **love** the way you linked the photos right into the Carnival. (Before I get hatemail, as well, BooBoo was *not* hurt by the tail trick.)
Thanks...
Boxing Alcibiades

m0nkeyman: wonderful carnival, and I love the linked pics...save one... I can't imagine how the tail-hang can be enjoyable for BooBoo, and I hope Boxing Alcibiades is prepared for the flames that are going to rain down. Not a very good idea to muck with a cat's spine. I also have to question the wisdom of posting that pic on the carnival. I think a lot of folks are going to be outraged, despite the fact that they don't know the cat or the person involved. I'm deeply troubled by both the act and your decision to post the pic.
Posted by: StrangeRanger | May 15, 2005 at 07:17 PM
Thanks for a great Carnival! I gotta tell you, though -- Lucky's picture isn't a link. We want the full story!
And with respect, I must agree with the comment above about BooBoo being carried by the tail. Cats are not built to be carried that way. Even if it didn't hurt BooBoo now, it may well do so in the future.
Posted by: Rahel | May 16, 2005 at 02:25 AM
relax, y'all, I'm no sadist -- see comments by post. Just wanted to show what a weirdo he is...
I agree re: Lucky. Whose honor got defended here, and what is the tale of bravery and kittyderringdo?
Posted by: Russ | May 16, 2005 at 09:08 AM
I just knew I'd miss one. It's linked now.

cool pictures
Posted by: jr | May 23, 2005 at 11:55 PM
I just want to say that the "cool pictures" quote attributed to me was in fact posted by an interloper. My son Kenny, who's soon to scarper to Montreal. Don't get me started.
Posted by: pontcanna | May 27, 2005 at 09:44 PM
Really nice and cool photos. I like them.
