Today is:
We didn’t know Derby but we are celebrating TockTober nonetheless! Here are two extraordinary tocks!
First up is BobbieSue – she of the tailless tocks! Mom tried to get a good photo of her but unless she’s asleep its no use – she runs from the camera – or maybe its mom!
Here are my fabulous tocks! Quite nice if I do say so myself! This was taken Tuesday while we were waiting on the cable man.
Speaking of the cable/internet saga – it seems the ‘maintenance crew’ from Cox Cable (who, by the way, suck – if you have a choice of cable/internet providers do NOT go with these incompetent fools – these are mom’s words, not mine) came out to replace the line but decided the tree was in the way and said it was a ‘liability’ so they did NOTHING! Even left the old wire in the tree.
Mom spoke with them last night and afterward was quite upset. So upset that I had to hold her paw while she tried to go to sleep later.
I lay right next to her head and purred, at least until I fell asleep. Now she has to call the landlord, have the tree trimmed and then call stupid Cox again to have them come out. The way I see it – and the cable guy on Tuesday saw it, the incompetent maintenance fools crew couldn’t see they could string the wire from a different location and all would be well. So we are taking up residence at the library until further notice!
So we don’t end on a sour note, here’s a sweet photo of Granmama’s kitty, Moose, giving her a loving look. Moosey is an old sweetie and the last of his brothers. We hope he is with us for a long time!
Since we are at a public computer for some reason we are unable to post our link to the Cat Blogosphere site. If anyone has any suggestions on what we’re doing wrong, please let us know. Thanks!
Are there any good cable companies? There’s a reason we only have cable for Internet (and have DirecTV for TV!).

At least yous don’t has to pays the exorbitant rates wes does up here in Canada (where the big 3 companies colludes to keeps them high so they can make extra big profits).

Wes will stand shoulder to shoulder (virtually) with yous guys!

That is a lovely photo of Moosey. Great tocks from you and Bobbie Sue. I hope you can get some sense from the cable company. My mum would have lost it big time with them by now.

That is so ridiculous about Cox Cable, I am glad we have Comcast. I love your tocks! Penny is swooning over yours Toby. And Milie is happy for a glimpse of BobbieSue. XO

Nice tocks-shots! We didn’t know Derby either but Tock-Tober is fun no matter what. Cable peeps are not the brightest bulbs I’m afraid. They could have fixed you up but didn’t “feel like it” apparently – hopefully you’ll get some action soon on the tree/cable and be back in business!
Hugs, Sammy

So sorry about all your mom’s internet troubles. It really seems like NO internet company is a good one. Love the tock pictures.

Toby, you are a good cuddle bug. As much as Bear destroys around here, he fixes EVERYTHING 🙂
