Tuesdays With Murray (Chapter 81)
I learned Friday that Murray isn’t only a little Internet famous. He’s also famous at a certain emergency veterinary clinic here in Brooklyn. He’s famous because of how much he enjoys chewing plastic and rubber. When I walked into the ER on Friday, the head doctor—like, the guy with his name on the plaque everywhere,…

Tuesdays With Murray (Chapter 78)
It’s haiku Tuesday! (Another subtitle could be, “A bit of a cop out because mama had a long day at the pediatrician.”) Stole my food again. And chased my paper towel. Wish he was still small.

Tuesdays With Murray (Chapter 76)
We have more and more people coming over now that we live in the new place and a few of them have asked to meet Murray. It only recently occurred to me how crippled my cat is when it comes to socializing, partly because we never really had anyone over before. Truth be told, he…

Tuesdays With Murray (Chapter 75)
Murray’s first ever (witnessed) snowfall. Snow must be really strange for cats since the little white things resemble bugs, especially when the show is light and fluffy and the wind carries it every which way it can. He was fascinated. I was as well.

Tuesdays With Murray (Chapter 74)
We’ve been in the apartment now for almost two weeks. Things are coming along. We’re slowly unpacking and getting things in order. It’s been hard, because they are still not finished with the actual building, which has been contentious. We feel we’re paying a lot of money to live here. The elevator still isn’t working…

Tuesdays With Murray (Chapter 73)
Murray has always enjoyed playing fetch. But in the new place, with the sleek bamboo floors and all, he’s really into it. I think he likes to slide and then fall down. I think he thinks he an action hero from a major motion picture. I think he thinks he’s a lot more badass than…

Tuesdays With Murray (Chapter 72)
Moving Day! I have a question for you cat lovers out there. We don’t yet have heat or hot water (gas) at our new apartment. It’s not unlivable for a grown adult (the building is “green” so it’s quite insulated) but I am worried about the cats. Would you leave them in an empty apartment…

Tuesdays With Murray (Chapter 71)
I can assure you, this isn’t how it looks. I can explain. Really. Edited to add: Many, many moons ago I read something someone posted on an “I Love My Cat” Flickr group. The question was: “Do you kiss your cat?” I thought, “Who doesn’t kiss their cat?” I kiss my cats every chance I…

Tuesdays With Murray (Chapter 70)
Murray has been out of his mind for over a week. And by out of his mind I mean he’s acting like a kitten again. At first we were surprised by the apparent sudden burst of energy. Where had it come from and why? You know how sometimes you live with someone for a while…
