Cat Daddy was supposed to be away at a music festival this weekend but, because of his knee injury, he’s stuck here. 

I am trying to cheer him up by bringing a festival vibe to Le Château – listening to the bands that he would have seen at the festival, pouring him warm, flat beer with bits of grass in it, making him queue for thirty minutes for the toilet, that kind of thing – but I can tell that he’s disappointed. He’d rather be at the festival than being screamed at by an abnormally small, toothy Chat Noir. In fact, wouldn’t we all?

Louis Catorze is, obviously, delighted to have his papa here. Cat Daddy, not so much. 

A bit of quiet time with a book.

Cat Daddy has always been highly embarrassed about the fact that I refer to him as Cat Daddy. The only reason he puts up with it, other than not being able to do anything about it, is because very few of the followers of Le Blog know him, so he can hide behind a mysterious cloak of (relative) anonymity. He thinks that people who refer to their pets as children are absurd and, if ever I suggest that he is Catorze’s daddy, he retorts, “I am NOT. He is a cat and I am a human. I am his male feeder.” 

So, having asked Catorze, “Has your daddy fed you?”, nothing gave me more smug pleasure than having Cat Daddy reply, “No, I haven’t yet”. 

Ha. Cat Daddy has owned up to being Cat Daddy. This is proof that he loves his boy, and now the world knows it. 

Here is one of my favourite pictures of Catorze and his DADDY (not “male feeder”), taken in 2020. If you and your furry overlords are celebrating Fathers’ Day tomorrow, I hope you enjoy your weekend as much as this:

Papa-fils goals.

    “male feeder” sounds like it ranks lower than Cat Daddy. AT lweast the knee njury was not brought about by tripping over Catrorze.

      Not this time, but pretty sure such things have happened before.

    Louis is really small. Those two pictures show it to us perfectly. Out of them, my favorite is the first one. Have a happy weekend.

    Didn’t Cat Daddy had problems with you posting his photograph? I try to avoid photographs of me appear somewhere online but it’s very difficult… The photo of the 2 boys is beautiful!

      It’s a photo that’s been posted before, with his agreement. So I’ve used the highly questionable logic that if he didn’t mind before, he won’t mind again. Ahem. 😬

    Such adorable pictures! On the first one, I can see that Louis is as tiny as Miss Penny was 🙂

    I work for the Department of National Defence, so when people try to take pictures of me, I always say “sorry, I work for DND and we are not allowed to have our picture taken” (which is not entirely true but no one has ever verified, haha)!

      I’d better not tell Cat Daddy, otherwise he will start using that excuse!
