Here There and Everywhere

Early Sunrise

The Qatteri Cat is up to no good this morning. He came into the bedroom around 5:30, meowed in my face until I woke up and petted him, then came back five minutes later and did it again.

“Did you forget to check his food last night?” AdventureMan asks groggily as I stumble out of bed to go check the Qatteri Cat’s food. . .

“I guess not,” I mumble, but although his food is mostly gone, there is still a few little nibbles in his bowl.

As I get some coffee, QC is meowing at the door. I do all the normal things, give him fresh water, check his litter box . . . everything seems right. I guess he is just restless, maybe a little lonely. The Qatteri Cat has the cat-crazies.

But since sunrise is coming earlier these days, I was up to capture a sparkling moment. The surf is smooth today, not as glassy as other days, it has a slubbed texture this morning. There is more haze. It is 77°F / 25°C and the humidity is 41%. It FEELS like it should rain, but I don’t see any big thick rain clouds.

  1. Sometimes cats, like humans, just need endless cuddles and affection and perhaps QC wanted to play.

    The sea looks perfect at that hour. Beautiful

  3. I got him back, Jewaira. After I had my bath today, I dunked him in; his long haired bottom sometimes needs a little extra cleaning. He wasn’t mean about it but definitely surprised and not happy, scrambling to exit the tub. It was funny.

    Ansam, The QC is not so smart – but delightful and sweet hearted. He loves my husband the best.
