Earlier this week, my parents called to check up on us. They were concerned, they said, because there had been no cat photo posted here at Music and Cats last Friday, or even Saturday (aka Not-Quite-Friday). Were we OK? I reassured them that we were fine, that I just hadn’t felt like posting.
It’s a funny thing when one’s parents use one’s blog posts to verify that one is still alive and healthy. And it’s not only my parents; I’ve picked up the phone more than once to hear my father-in-law say, “Is Paul OK? He hasn’t written anything in a couple of days…”
So, I’m here to say: Hi, Mom! Hi, Dad! Everyone here is feeling fine. And here’s Miss Lyra, looking particularly lovely in a little patch of sunshine.
Check up on animals (and their people) aboard the Friday Ark, and on Weekend Cat Blogging at Mind of Mog.

We’ll post links to sites that have Friday (plus or minus a few days) photos of their chosen animals (photoshops at our discretion and humans only in supporting roles). Watch the Exception category for rocks, beer, coffee cups, and….? Visit all the …

Cute story. At least they weren’t calling because they were worried about the cats! ; - )
I’m always surprised who keeps track of me via my blog. (Not my folks, I work with them. They know all to well what I’d doing.)
I’d forgotten how much Lyra resembled my late lamented Sheba. Such a darling girl.
I love your Garden kitty pix!
I had to LOL. Unfortunately, my parents are no longer living, but neither were into computers. My mother would have loved reading my blog if I’d started it when she was still alive, however. Alas. BUT, since I’ve had my own blog, and most of my friends read it regularly, I don’t get as much email or phone calls. They all know about my day or days, they know what I fixed for dinner, so they don’t feel the need to communicate. But it’s just a one-way thing. I know nothing about them. Am sure my friends don’t even realize it.
