Needs narration. Good to see that mug, though.

Well, for proof of life we need something in the picture with a current (or recent) date, but we’ve been so starved for Steve that this will do nicely.

You post in the middle of the night (your time) just so us on the other side of world (New Zealand) can actually see a post in real time (6.40pm)!
Thanks! And the pic is cool too.
This stray kitten started hanging around the condo the other day. My housemates started feeding her and determined she has fleas. Yesterday the door was open and she just walked in like she belonged there. My housemate grabbed her and put her in the fenced-in patio. She’s too little to climb the fence, although she tries to climb the screen door. We can’t keep her; beside the fleas, for which she is being treated, Gizmo, the resident cat, will not abide her. Tomorrow she goes to the Santa Clara Humane Society. I think she will be adopted quickly, she is very friendly and affectionate. I had trouble taking her picture; she wouldn’t hold still.

Love the side eye. He’ll let you pet him, just this once, though.

@Steeplejack: I agree, a newspaper with the date is necessary for proof of life. Cole, you are a shitty kidnapper.
I have to run off to work so this will have to do since there is no open thread. A pair of family values state legislators were found in a rural park, she had her pants undone & pulled down, according to the police report. They say they are going to file a complaint because all they were doing was exchanging some papers – seems like the thing one would do in the woods.
Steve didn’t used to creep me out. Maybe it’s the closeup of the eyes.
He looks healthy and happy.

It’s proof that he’s a pretty kitty, yes he is. Sorry, I’m a sucker for long hair cats in general and Steve looks a lot like one of the best cats with whom I’ve every shared a home. Her name was Fiona and she had a purr you could hear from across the room. Also, she would run across the room to headbutt me if I lowered my head. Every single time.

For real Proof of Life, there should be more nicknames. My cats have at least seven apiece, if not more.

Exchanging papers now joins the great lexiCON alongside such gems as hiking the Appalachian Trail.

@Schlemazel: I guess “family values” includes starting a 3rd family in addition to the 2 they currently have.

That is one beautiful cat. Why did he eat half your thumb?

That’s a fine pic. Too fine,in fact, to have been taken by Cole. Who are you and what have you done with Steve?
CaseyL
Oh, it is GOOD to see Steve again!
Is he spending most of his time outside now? Is that why he’s never around?
Maybe he’ll start coming home more as the weather changes.
Or maybe Thurston is just one dog too many for him.
Thanks for letting us know The Steve still walks the Earth.

Good Lord, what a gorgeous cat.

You need to stick today’s newspaper in front of him for proof of life.
