Part of the fun of our countdown is perusing some of our most favorite blog posts. The funniest years of our blog were absolutely the early years of Waffles and Katie. Those of you that have been with us all this time know their relationship was complicated. Waffles was fascinated with Katie, vying for her attention every chance he got. Katie tolerated Waffles. It’s not that she didn’t like him…it was more like a sister brother relationship. Or rather, the all knowing older sister and annoying little brother relationship.
This is one of our MOST favorite funnies. In part because Katie NEVER let Waffles touch her. Like EVER. Until this. Until the infamous Paw Touch.
WAFFLES: So Boss. We’ve been together now for about elebenty seven years.
KATIE: Actually, it 2 years, 8 months, 21 days, 6 hours and 11 minutes.
WAFFLES: That’s what I said. Elebenty seven years.
KATIE: Fine. Elebenty whatever. So just how long are you planning on keeping your paw there? Because for the record, mine was here first. And yours is encroaching.
WAFFLES: Uh, but when a boy cat and a girl cat go out for elebenty seven years –
KATIE: Go OUT???
WAFFLES: Yeah, Boss. You know. Like going study and stuff.
KATIE: You mean going ‘steady’? We are NOT going steady, Waffles.
WAFFLES: Does that mean we’re not going to the first base thing?
KATIE: What, you mean like baseball?
You should have heard Glogirly squealing after she shot these photos this past weekend.
Katie and Waffles HOLDING HANDS???
Call CNN!
Call Entertainment Tonight!
Call Jackson Galaxy!
Waffles is fascinated with Katie. He SO wants to engage. After breakfast, Katie trotted over to one of her favorite hang out spots – her big soft pillow by the sliding glass doors. It’s one of the few spots Waffles usually lets her be. Until today.
He walked up to her, sat down just at the edge of her pillow and started meowing. Long, extended meows. Slowly he reached out with his right paw towards her. He carefully set it down right on top of her paw and then laid it on the pillow next to hers.
Then came the stare down.
This was one of those moments Glogirly would pay just about any amount of money to be able to read their minds.
These are actual, untouched photographs. NO photoshop trickery was used. For real.
