The evidence is in: Pampered cat!
PICTURE OF THE MOMENT
I was camping out this morning in Shutterbug Sage’s blog and one of his posts was about pampered pups. I told him that his post reminded me of a home inspection I did a few years ago with one resident cat. Pampered for that cat is a severe understatement!
Here’s the cat:
One scratch pad or post was not good enough for this cat. She had one in every room!
She even had a combination bed and scratch post, with a view no less!
She had her own condominium tower:
Notice that she had two beds in her condo tower, but that’s not enough:
And behind curtain #1?
Another bed with a view:
Surprisingly there was only one dinner table:
And two litter toilets!
Now I think Zoey the Cool Cat is quite pampered and spoiled. But let’s look at the difference between thinking a cat is pampered and having the evidence that the cat truly is pampered. Following is how Zoey the Cool Cat has to live.
Her beds are newspapers, drawers, sacks, boxes, desks, and laundry baskets:
Her litter box is, well, a litter box, although she likes to kick most of the litter out of the box and onto the garage floor:
Her toys are red rings from the top of gallon milk jugs. She does have a lot of them, though; 152 at last count at April 1. We’ll find out tomorrow on cleaning day how many she has now.
But, hey, she does get to watch television, preferring tennis and golf. I guess the little ball flying across the screen gets her attention more so than footballs, basketballs, and soccer balls.
Now I ask you, which cat do you think is more pampered? Be careful how you answer if you want me to camp out in your blog anytime in the future.

This cat has quite a personality that you have captured. Really like the one where it’s curled up with the mouse..
One of my favorite pictures of ZCC.
Hilarious!
Dear Russel, thanks for the shoutout and for sharing your pampered cat pics as promised earlier today. While the other cat seems to be pretty spoiled, Zoey is clearly WAY more real. And real trumps spoiled. By a landslide.
P.S. Shutterbug Sage is a chick (not a “he” as you stated in your opening paragraph)
Thanks for letting me know, kind ma’am!
When it’s a choice of cat vs dog, the cat wins every time. The way I see it your both cool cats.
zcc’s litter box truly shows who’s the master of the house.
That shown in the picture is actually litter box #2, which is out of action.
Litter box #1 was a standard litter box from the pet store. When ZCC finished, there was nothing in the litter box. All on the garage floor.
Litter box #2 wasn’t much better.
Having run out of options at the pet store, I went to Office Depot and bought a huge storage box. I let Office Depot keep the lid since I wouldn’t be needing it. Now ZCC has this huge litter box which would probably hold a month’s worth — lol — and I have a clean garage again.
Lol! Absolutely love this. Both look like very happy Cool cats.
Another fun post. Thanks for checking out my blog Russel, and giving me the oppurtunity to discover yours and your photography, I’m enjoying them very much. Zoey is an absolute cutey!
I LOVE THESE!
I take that to mean that you spoil your pets? lol
i spoil them with love…. and yes just about anything else lol
