Danged Cats!
When I do an upload to my video channel, I just leave my Samsung laptop open, set it to upload, go to bed and leave it to upload overnight.
Apparently last night our three cats had other plans.
I woke up this morning and the Samsung was closed and on the floor. No biggie as long as it's not damaged.
The laptop's fine.
It's the power supply that's busted.
The end that plugs into the laptop's broken off.
It's only $15 from Amazon but I'll havta wait a whole week before I can use my Samsung. 'Til then, I'll havta share my wife's clunky ol' Toshiba.
At least it upgraded itself to Windows 10 so it's kinda familiar.
I've also got my little 7" Samsung tablet.

You also have normal cats! 
As a owner of 3 very adventurous, very large Main Coons I keep the door to my office closed unless I'm in there to protect things!

This is one reason why I don't keep pets.

This cat was abandoned and suckered us, or me, into keeping her. Two years and no trouble with her yet. I'm really fond of her.

I'll use this as an excuse to give an update on Pork and Beans at 4 months.

My cats have worked out some kind of deal with the dogs.
Cats knock bags of treats off of top of fridge, dogs consume 80%, leaving the cats their cut of the take.
It's pretty amazing inter-species cooperation.

What our pets do when we are asleep! They were probably wanting to connect with their friends on Catbook, Catchat, Purrrrr or any of the other feline social media sites. You might want to observe their behavior the next few days or search their belongings in case they were trying to score some catnip. Even the most straight-laced kitties are drawn to the stuff. On the other end, maybe they were up all night trying to figure out Windows 10?
I'm glad it was just a small part.
The unconditional love you receive from a pet is priceless. They are family.

Mousing with 125 grain .357 couldn't leave much to eat!
I'm hopping to find a family raised calico kitten to keep my one remaining cat company. 90% of my cats have adopted me so their color hasn't been my choice. We'll see which happens first this time.

snubby, there are worse things a cat could do to a laptop; or your shoes, bedspread, favorite sweatshirt, or one of those nice leather jobs you turn out.

Cats and I have a mutual dislike for each other.
HEY! They started it!

My ex never had cats growing up. When she moved out, she took a big gold one in. Nice cat, friendly, it just liked to dig the dirt out of her potted plants and piss in her shoes in the closet.
She still cried when the cat got an eye torn out with fighting something and the vet couldn't save it from infection and put it down.
Tongue in cheek, before it got real bad, I suggested we give the cat a glass eye. I said I had some cats' eye marbles at home. Sometimes my humor just didn't make her smile.

Wyatt, My daughter brought a kitten home 16 years ago that looks just like that Calico. She passed last year and I still miss her. By the look in her eyes, I would say she found a great home.
I still have 3 furry yahoos keeping me company.

I think God made Cats so they could drive Humans crazy.
Don't try to walk around My house with bare leg's because they are fair game to our Cat,If You have long pants on Your safe and She wont bother You. Here She is just chillin out waiting for some fun.

Our cat's only redeeming feature is that it embodies the essence of unapologetic self-indulgence
Giving us a lofty ideal to which we can aspire in our daily lives

We have one member of the family that has achieved success in life - our cat.

My two kittens I think there a year old plus now. The orange tabby Garfield is very smart he eats the dogs jerky treats but he feeds them to the dog too. His brother Cole is very shy but really he's sneaky. He plays the can't touch me game. The wife can pick him up and hold him but he runs from me go figure. The three tamed feral cats kaos, stugots and spot could care less just feed me, pet me. And let me go hunt mices. There laid back. The kittens hunt in the house all night. The ferals are outside hunting till it gets cold.

Just like the (slightly altered) old saying: Cats, you cant live with them, you cant live without them.
