Dr. Evil Picks A Sidekick

We just finished our summer teaching,
so I figured I would try something I've never done,
I shaved my head smooth.

The new look requires an evil sidekick.

This one has some Vladi-tude,...

This one is squirmy,

With a lot of fight in him.

But this one has an evil spirit,...

I think you are the one.

Tanji's New Dress

"Tanji" got a dress for Les' birthday.

Tanji, you better not be kick-pickling that dress!

Not me, I'm a good boy!

Let's take this for a test wear... outside!

It's finely warm enough to wear summer clothes.
(90+ degrees F today)

Kisses for the good boy.

Les feeds the birds.

Where is Tanji?

Tanji is "heading out" along a trail,
he can't always be a good boy!

Medal Contenders

Shhhhh, the baby cat is sleeping!

The family is all tuckered out: We have had visitors, the Tour de France, non-stop Olympics, and just finished our summer courses. Usually Uschi is the champion napper, but now the whole family is sleepy...

Vladi is dreaming of a somersault dive...

...and so is the T-man.

Gold Medal Sleeper

Uschi may be pulling ahead in the medal race,
because the latest event is competitive napping...

Uschi can sleep anytime, anywhere...

The cat cup is a little small for a big Bengal boy,
but Uschi makes it work.

Too many distractions in the house?

No problem, Uschi can sleep on his face.

Leave me alone, I've only been napping for eight hours!

Uschi will always be...

Our gold medal sleeper.

Uschi Bird Feeder

Uschi "stalks"

and chatters at

a skinny Scrub-Jay,

then hangs out,...

waiting for more birdies to visit him.

Balance Beam

Tanji is in search of his next event.

When he spots one of his favorite,

the "ladder" hanging on the back of the well house.

He LOVES to walk the length,...

back and

forth.

T looks to be setting-up

a specular Tanji-move,

but hunkers down and sits, and sits, and sits,...
(while we wait and wait and wait)

I got a hold of his leash and gave it
a "little" tug,... but he dug in,...

NooOOooo, I want to stay here !!!

Finally,

Tanji is off to his next event.

Doubles

Tanji and Vladi have the Olympic spirit, they have
been practicing doubles napping and wrestling.

First, the napping competition,
their synchronization is off a bit.
(Tanji came out of his tuck early)

Vladi is holding on to Tanji's paw,
extra bonus points for team spirit.

Vladi is waking up, its time for another event...

"Are you sleeping, Tanji?"

"How about now?"

Tanji wants to keep on sleeping...

But its time for Greco-Roman wrestling.
(forbids attacks below the waist)

Look out Vladi, Tanji's eyes tell us he
is ready to defend his gold medal!

Uschi's Perch

All this Olympic stuff is Boorrrring,
(for Uschi)

But U is a gold medal licker,...

Mmmm, this belly fluff is yummy.

Did you see my swirls ?

What ?

U gazes out at his yard.
