RIP Sly Stone. One of the most innovative musicians this world had ever seen. Rock, soul, R&B and my favorite funk defined his music. He influenced so many artists. 82 years on this earth was not long enough.

Happy 11th Birthday to Lucy! Lucy continues to evolve more than any of our other cats. This year she likes to have conversations with us. She’s always been a good listener, but now she has a lot to say.

Lucy moved up to the second cubby of the condo. She still has her privacy but now can do guard duty for the backyard. #cats #cats_of_instagram #tabbycat

RIP Gene Hackman. Tremendous actor probably best known for The French Connection and Unforgiven, but my favorite film of his is Hoosiers. He didn’t think the movie was good while filming it but changed his mind when he saw the finished product.

Happy National Love Your Pet Day to Will, Grace & Lucy! #cats #NationalLoveYourPetDay

I don’t think Grace knows Will is sleeping next to her. #catsofinstagram #cats #blackcat #calicocat

Merry Christmas from Will, Grace, Lucy & me! #cats #christmas #catsofinstagram #blackcat #calicocat

Will discovered the new Christmas throw and found it to be warm and soft. As such, perfect for napping. #blackcat #cats #catsofinstagram #christmas

Happy National Cat Day to Will, Grace & Lucy! #catsofinstagram #cats #nationalcatday

Happy Black Cat Day to Will! He loves his new throw and does not like to share with the girls. #blackcat #Cats

Sometimes you just need to sit in a box. #cats #catsofinstagram #calicocatsofmastodon

I think they’re up to something. #cats #catsofinstagram #blackcats #tabbycat

Have you ever wondered if all black cats were beyond cool? They are, but this guy takes it to a different level. Happy Black Cat Appreciation Day to William Holden Hunter! Will is the reason this day exists. #blackcatsofinstagram #blackcatappreciationday #blackcats

Happy International Cat Day to Lucy, Grace & Will!

One of my all-time favorite photos. Kitten Will & Grace sharing a chair. They were so much fun as kittens and continue to be fun. #cats #catsofinstagram #blackcats #calicos #willandgrace

In the ongoing series of you never know where you’ll find Lucy, I noticed the desk chair was crooked. Before pulling the chair out, I remembered Lucy likes to sleep in that chair. I was right. #cats #catsofinstagram

Couldn’t figure out why my bed was so messed up. Then I saw these magical paws 🐾 #cats #catsofinstagram

@macsparky C’mon David. Be better. ‘Moms are not power users.’ Really?

Happy 10th Birthday to our multi-Emmy award winner Lucille Ball Hunter. Lucy won 4 Emmys and as she reminds me is the Queen of Comedy. She also has entered into the two digit age. She thinks she’s big stuff.

We’re having a party tonight with special treats and toys! After her last experience with catnip, we’re laying off the ‘nip. #cats #catsofinstagram #tabby

On patio patrol in case there is a leaf or bird or rabbit outside. A woman’s work is never done. #cats #catsofinstagram #calico
