    Window sill-iness
    Soaking up all the sunshine
    Is a pane-full job

  3. zirgar says:

    Tell me of your homeworld, Usul.

  4. debg says:

    Pyrit, have you been channeling Henri? He and Usul would make a great pair!

  5. tracylee says:

    bravo/a, pyrit!

      ummmm, tl — I just dabbled in your flcker/screenname thinggie???

      Unless my logic has been severely mangled by our dalliance with the illogical yesterday (Camus, Proust etc)….there is a pic among those of Miss Schnozz, which,
      while it IS of A SCHNOZZ, is not MISS Schnozz…. unless she temporarily took on a different existence and species and then reverted again to Miss Schnozzdom.

      Please to ‘splain, “Lucy” ???
      Do you keep a llama in your living room, beside Miss Schnozz??

      Signed,
      Still feeling Existential ….

      • tracylee says:

        hahahaha oh I forgot about that one – I think it’s from ages back when someone asked for a llama picture and I put up my photo of this self-satisfied little lady from my excursion to machu picchu

        but thank you for your concern in re Miss Schnozz’ possible Kafka-esque species-altering episode.

    If only cats could somehow learn to relax. They can make a sloth seem positively energetic. :)

    I thought I saw a puddy tat.

    Snoozing orange cat
    On the ledge of inspection
    Grav’ty, harsh reality

  9. Coffee Cup (now with more rabbits) says:

    Also, is the cat really named Usul? I believe that cat’s ego is now inflated to outrageous proportions because you’ve named him “the base of a pillar.”

    That’s brilliant! A haiku palindrome! Seriously.

  11. gizmo says:

    Let sleeping cats lie
    On sunny sills ‘neath house plants
    Peaceful days pass by

  12. Gigi says:

    Usul? For he IS the Kwis-catz Haderach!

  13. T.U.M. says:

    Orange as the sun
    Chock full of Vitamin C
    Tastes like marmalade

    • Clairdelune says:

      Oh my, now I’m divided between the butterscotch pudding and the orange marmalade. Both nommable… the curled up pawsies, this time…

  14. luvstehQte says:

  15. luvstehQte says:

    ok, just noticed the title of the post is also a palindrome. i think i need to take the rest of the day off and go lie down.
    *splodies*

    • Emmm says:

      Well spotted ltQ, but de brilliance is too much *pitching things out of summer trunk*… Ah needs mah sunglasses…and a puppeh to cuddle.

    Usul recharging
    For nights in flying circus
    Solar panel tum

  17. bruceo says:

    …or was it Eliot’s toilet?

  18. Nicolas B says:

    Usul! Enjoying the screen of the tomato plant in the sunshade! I think the rays just barely found him.

  19. dubyah1 says:

    Not merely snoozing:
    Am cattemplating autumn.
    Rilly! I’ve been framed!

    • Clairdelune says:

      Thunderous applause *clap* *clap Brillian!
      I’m watching my kitteh cattemplating the universe right now.

  20. dubyah1 says:

    Photosynthetic
    Immobile somnabulist,
    NOT cat’s sunbeam nap.
