*OOPS, Monday's KCChronicles on SUNDAY * Chapter 7 of his History with DU * (Got ahead of myself. Sorry.)

Last edited Sun Jun 7, 2026, 10:26 AM - Edit history (1)

KC's not real rarin' to go today.


"And how may I fulfill every wish and whim for you today?"

Laurie had a plant thingy inside for a time. KC loved to chomp on it.

He loves windowsills.


He likes to pretend he's hiding out.


One evening he watched intently as I brushed my teeth,
so I showed him the toothbrush. He sniffed. That was all.

KC is serious about grooming. It's like Groomliness is next
to Purrfection.

Stretched out, he is a long cat.

"Yawn. Are we almost done here?"

But KC may be happiest of all cuddling with Mommy.

But how did you folks out west get a day ahead of the rest of us? I’m still going back and forth with my brain. Retirement can play a lot of tricks on us.

Sunday (and/or Monday, maybe) is lounge around day for KC. Who doesn’t love a long weekend. 🥰

6. I'll take any excuse you got. Tempting to feel foolish, but, shrugging it off. KC's post for the week is done. Thanks!!

I've been focused on hosting this photo contest, which began today. So when I got up early, my hyper--sleep-deprived brain said you gotta do KC's post TODAY. So I did.

I was impressed that you were that eager and willing to start the new week. Besides, cats have a way of turning the world inside out and then looking at as if you were crazy. It’s their special magic.

Like this?


Nah, I don't feel foolish, thank you. I'm a little nervous about the contest. It's only
my second. I do remember some of what the first one was like and that it turned
out alright. Grumpy Old Guy's on "speed dial". But I'll be glad when it's done.

Thanks again for your support.

George

Any day with KC is a good day. I have a picture frame (with a picture of my previous cat Boots in it) that says: Here Kitty! Chase a shadow across the floor, then curl up in my lap a while. Now you're such a lazy fur ball contented little puss asleep all day. Such a casual kitty, and so full of mischief. You are an independent spirit. And frisky! Who would guess you're the ruler of the house? Meow."

Today's photos show that KC is a casual kitty! Thanks for posting KC's photos and story a day early, George McGovern!

Have a great day!
