Yes, there is my awesome writing partner and babyboy bird hunting. Never mind that it’s on TV.
He likes mouse videos, chasing string videos, and squirrel videos, too. But the bird one, that is his ultimate favorite.
Every day, after a hearty breakfast, he likes to work off the calories with this happy past time.
Personally, I’m glad he gets this out of his system before it’s time to sit down and write. There is nothing worse than a writing partner who can’t focus on the task at hand.
Here he is ten minutes later. We’ve been throwing important plot ideas around when all at once, he’s decided there is something else he’d rather throw around.
Oh, no, he doesn’t need to use the litter pan. I wouldn’t take a picture of that. Don’t be silly.
This is what’s called the Cat Genie. It is an automatic toilet for cats. It senses when the cat has stepped into the plastic pellet litter, then, about ten minutes later, it automatically washes itself out. Toward the end of the cleaning cycle, a hot air blows all the pellets dry.
Understanding this process is important. You see, Cesare has figured out that when he is cold, all he has to do is step briefly into the litter, then wait through the cleaning cycle for the blessed hot air to blow his beautiful ginger fluff around.
Here he is caught in the act of waiting for the cycle to finish. Meanwhile, we haven’t written a single sentence.
You may have noticed in the previous picture he is wearing a collar. The collar has a bell and bow-tie on it.
I did not put this on him, and suspect it was placed there by our quieter, tortie cat Cassie. She hates it when he sneaks up on her. She’s not as young as she used to be, and his shenanigans are not funny.
Cesare thinks I did it, though, and in retaliation, he yanks it off (he knows how to get safety collars off, folks… yay), and throws it at me.
There will be no writing help today. He’s decided today’s activity has been all he can possibly endure.
So dramatic.
Tomorrow is always a new day.
I hope you enjoyed a look into this fierce beastie’s life! 😀 This boy’s personality never stops! lol
FYI: This is not an ad for the Cat Genie. I just thought it would be easier to put the link there rather providing the link in my comment responses. 😀
Thank you for reading,
I’ve often wondered who Cesare is, but now I know. Goodness that photo of him basking in the warm air 😍 he’s a floof!
He’s a definite floof, it’s true! haha 😀 He’s my sweet buddy and writing partner. 😂
I would like to see an update to this, to see how Cesare is getting on, Kymber 🙂 here something to give you a smile 🙂 Lions and Tigers and Bears together, Oh My! https://youtu.be/-evijx5cX2k
Thank you so much, Darren. ❤ I would love to write an update on my little buddy.
Thank you for the link. I’m sure it will do the job of cheering me up. Going there now. 🙂
Cool Kymber… I will be looking out for it 🙂
Awesome! 😀
Cesare is a brilliant little beast! And handsome, too. They’ll go to all kinds of trouble to stay warm and toasty. 😀
Thank you so much. 😀 Yes, they sure will. lol.
Aw he is so lovely! And smart too. Thanks for sharing this beautiful little glimpse into your life together 🙂
Thank you so much, GT ❤❤ He’s my precious little friend.
Doh! I think I wrote GT instead of GC! So sorry about that.
An automatic toilet for cats? Why have I not come across one of these before? I feel like it’s one of those things I probably don’t need but definitely do need at the same time. Thing the auto cleaning would scare the crap out of my cat though, hopefully not literally otherwise that may defeat the purpose if he does his business outside of the litter tray. I love that Cesare watching TV too, mine has seen birdies on ours sometimes and watches with fascination. I just worry for the day he decides to pounce at the screen..!
Why, yes, Caz. 😀 Now you’ve seen it all. hahahaha I love the Cat Genie. It’s a little loud, but soooo worth it. The noise might scare some cats, I think. Cesare was mostly curious and wanted to know what it was all about.
Yes, let’s hope Cesare doesn’t pounce at the TV screen, too! lol They have cat videos on YouTube that he likes. 😀
I’m more of a doggie person and a total Golden Retriever fanatic as you know, but I was smiling over this post. Cesare sounds like a real character, and I can see why he’s your little buddy. ❤️ Animals make everything better.
Golden Retrievers are awesome and beautiful. ❤❤ I will never deny that truth. 😀
I love both cats and dogs. And, I agree that animals make everything better. Way better. ❤❤

This is great! Thank you so much for leaving this here for me. 🙂 🙂
Love the Cesare pics! He is so smart figuring out he can warm himself with the Cat Genie!
Thank you! ❤️ He’s such a good little boy.
Fancy that, the cat is super intelligent and funny, so adorable! 🙂
LOL Thank you, Bree. ❤️ He’s the goodest boy I know. 😀
Waaaa haaaa haaaa! I am totally convinced Cesare is way cool and may even be of royal descent. At this very moment, in Key West Florida, Hemingway’s cats are nervous because they have a serious literary challenge at the Booomcha Estate. I admire Cesare for his excellent routine and proper daytime napping. He does know how to take care of himself in order to keep his muse rested and ready should the need for prose arise. On a side note, I offered all my old Army buddies a Thor’s Hammer amulet like Cesare’s for joining the Booomcha Brigade’s expeditionary forces for the pending world domination campaign. They are all in! The Army is growing and with Cesare leading the campaign, it’s bound to be cleverly executed affair with minimum disruption of daily affairs due to the mass bum warming and napping in the ranks. 😸
LOL Thank you. Cesare is definitely of royal descent. And, even if he isn’t… he is. LOL Those Hemingway cats better watch out. Cesare is soo good at taking care of himself.
Yes! That’s good news about them being all in! And, of course, I’m honored they’re being called the Booomcha Brigade! lol May they make us proud. 😀
Morale is high and the Booomcha Brigade is consuming a lot of ale and singing bawdy songs. This is a good sign. I know Cesare will be top cat and enjoy himself.
I know that’s right! LOL He needs to pipe down with the singing, though.
Waaa haaa haaa! Yes indeedy. Nothing is more raucus than cats singing. Add rum and rowdy friends and the police will get called for sure.
Oh, yes, I know that’s right! LOLOLOL This evening, he can’t decide whether to take another nap or sing another round of “Everybody Wants to be a Cat!” 😀
Waaaa haaa haaa haaa! Oh lordy, I’m starting to disturb the neighbors with my snort laughing. 🙂
Whoa! Me, too! 😀 😀 LOL
So, there I was in my man chair in my newly mastered Cesare pose snort laughing like a fool and my neighbor texted me and asked if I was okay. I think he might have thought I had a zoo escapee snorting dandelions in my back yard.
LOL I wish you would have told him that just for the laughs. 😀
I got the used hippo cheap bro! 😂🦛
That’s hilarious! I’m glad you didn’t pay full price, though 😀
Ha ha ha! I only pay full price when I’m desperate which is always when the airconditioner conks out.
Same here! Imagine, another thing in common! 😀
LoL 😆. I had no doubts.
😀 😀
all I can say is…………………..hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
LOLOLOL You got me laughing now because I can totally picture you doing that! 😀 ❤️
LOL this dude…
Hahaha! That made me laugh! (Out loud. LOLOL)
😁
What a handsome fellow! He is quite the cutie 😊
Thank you so much, Raymond. He’s my sweet babyboy. lol ❤️
I love when they watch TV. What a cutie!
LOL Thank you, Jolie. ❤️ I love that, too.
Oh my god, he is so cute!! <3 <3 I love a pet with a personality (maybe that's why I am so fond of westies? Lol) <3 <3
And he sounds really smart – figuring out how to play the – cat genie – system is no easy task, I'm sure! 😄
This was awesome, I loved it! And I hope Cesare approves more of these posts 😉 <3
Thank you so much! 🙂 Yes! I love personality, too, and Cesare is full of it! haha ❤️❤️
I have to buy the cleaning solution more often now because he figured the Cat Genie out. hahaha ❤️
Cesare is so cute! And a smart one, too, for figuring out how Cat Genie works! My cat used to open the front door by jumping on the handle. In the house, he’d sneak into the toilet using his paw. I miss him so much.
Thank you, Jowita. 🙂 Awww…. I am sorry. I know what it’s like to miss your cat. ❤️ Sounds like he was very clever.
Ha, ha, I love how he figured out that he can get all nice and toasty with the Cat Genie! 😛 I once had a kitty who, while he was a small kitten, liked to lie on my Playstation 2 while I played because it got warm. Then, of course, he became too big. 😀 Our current kitty just likes to lie on our floors because all our floors are heated. 😛
This was so cute! I’m sure he’s a lovely writing partner… even if he’s not always in the mood to write!
LOL Thank you so much, Louise. 😀 He’s very crafty, that boy. LOL
Awww your kitty sitting on the PS2 sounds like he was so cute. I know what you mean about him getting to big to do that anymore. Cesare likes to sit in this hanging basket, but he’s always half hanging out of it. LOL
Your current kitty is very lucky with the heated floors. 😀
He’s tops in every way. lol
