A Good Day to be a Cat

May 20, 2026 / Jon Stone

Black-and-white shot of a long-haired tuxedo cat draped lazily across the top platform of a carpeted cat tree, its body spilling over both sides, tail hanging off the right edge and white-tipped paws dangling below. It gazes directly into the camera with calm, wide eyes, backlit by a bright window on the left against a textured wall behind.

Black-and-white shot of a long-haired tuxedo cat loafed on a carpeted cat tree platform, white chest and paws tucked neatly in front, gazing directly into the camera with wide, alert eyes. A diamond-patterned leaded insert and a bright window fill the background behind it.

Black-and-white vertical shot of a tuxedo cat sleeping deeply on a cat tree perch near a window, head tilted back and face buried into its own tucked paw, whiskers splayed outward, a collar just visible at the neck, with soft window light blown out in the background.

Black-and-white close-up of a tuxedo cat curled into itself, face tucked down toward dozing, strong side lighting from a window in the blurred background catching the white fur and long whiskers in sharp relief.

Miss Bizkit doing a dangle and Miss Cuppy doing a sleep in the warm sunshine. Bizkit is majestic as always. Cuppy is cozy. She’s our oldest, and very happy for the warmth to return.
