Reject the Evidence of Your Eyes

A seemingly proud Trixie sits on the kitchen counter, though both Trixie and I know that Trixie is not allowed on the kitchen counter. July 29, 2025. Original: _A679894.ARW

I know Trixie is not allowed on the kitchen counter. Trixie knows Trixie is not allowed on the kitchen counter. I can only conclude it was my eyes which were deceived.

It sure did look like she was on the counter though.

The Missing Sam Formation

A black-and-white image of our cats Boo and Trixie resting beside each other on the couch, with Boo stretched towards the camera and Trixie sitting further back. Taken on April 11, 2022. Original: _Z721640.NEF

Days after Sam died a couple of years ago, two cats trying to figure out life without big brother. Boo will let Trixie snuggle against his back when he’s curled up on my legs but we’ve only had one cat that would have tolerated her climbing on him and smashing her face into his and fortunately for Trixie that was Samwise. I’ve tried my best to be a Sam Substitute but I am the palest of imitations.

Trix & Pink Mouse

We bought pink mouse way back when Scout was a kitten but it was Emma and now Trixie who really loved it and played with it in similar fashion. In the dark of night you can hear muffled mews as she carries it about, come morning her friend will be lying somewhere new.

Waiting For Walkies

Our cat Trixie looks out through the curtains while sitting next to the dog leash and my shoes on July 22, 2022. Original: _Z723598.NEF

Another picture from quarantine a couple of years ago. I was feeling better by this point but my wife had gotten sick so we stayed in isolation. Bear was still pretty new and I preferred to keep him on leash even in our fenced backyard, but when I saw Trixie watching the backyard through the curtains it looked like she was waiting for her turn.
