Tig, the mostly-Maine Coon cat, has a really lovely fur coat, and one of the things that cracks me up the most is what I call his pantaloons. But it’s tough to get them in a picture unless I snap a shot of him from behind, which I tend not to do, because, well, y’know, catbutt. Really, who wants to see a picture of a cat’s butt?
However, yesterday evening, since it was a freakishly-warm mid-80s, both cats were out, and I grabbed the camera. Then I noticed Tig’s pantaloons, and thought, gee, I’ll bet my readers would like to see this.
And so you have it: Catbuttblogging.

Looks like he’s wearing pants, doesn’t he?
Like a pipe cleaner with pants.

We’ll post links to sites that have Friday (plus or minus a few days) photos of their chosen animals (photoshops at our discretion and humans only in supporting roles). Watch the Exception category for rocks, beer, coffee cups, and….? We will add yo…

Fluffy bloomers for Tig?

He needs a clip. Or else, toilet paper.

Looks remarkably like the posterior of my big, fat, furry guy. They could be twins.

On Frisky, it’s his fuffybutt.

By the way, chsw, he needs neither a clip nor toilet paper. Tig rolls around on the ground a lot, and at this time of year, there’s a lot of dead grass, leaves, and pine needles. That’s what’s on his butt.
Sometimes I brush him before I let him inside, ’cause that stuff gets tangled like crazy in his fur.
