So a very foolish perfume blogger underestimated the amount of time it would take a check to go through into her account, which means that I will not be getting any breakfast this morning. (Not to worry- Zelda still gets breakfast! I have my priorities here, people.) That means that I’m too hungry to write a post with actual words. So just for fun, I have decided to take on the enormously important project of compiling the definitive guide to the perfume bloggers’ cats. (All photos come from some intense Facebook stalking.)
SCENTS OF SELF 
I love this post, but it makes me sad too. My beloved Ottilie (black half-Persian) would have fit right in with the others, she was a diva.
I hope you get some food into you soon, poor girl! ❤
Awww, I’m so sorry that Ottillie is no longer with us, Birgit. I think that Persians are the most beautiful cats (though I can’t quite handle all their fur!) Thank you very much for the food wishes. It sounds like the check will not be going through until tomorrow or Wednesday. But Zelda has food, and that’s what matters!
Love this…wonderful animals!!!!(hate those dern checks…so contrary to a good life)……
How totally cute is this post? I love it. Pets are so important to perfume bloggers (more than any other type of blogger, I believe that). One of these days, we need to have someone lead a scientific trial for us and find out exactly why that is. xox
Because perfume bloggers are writers! Or, at least, we do a lot more writing relative to makeup or fashion bloggers. And all writers need a kitteh! As Barbara Holland said, “A cat-less writer is almost inconceivable”!
So glad you enjoyed the post, Annie! 😀
Adorable. I think if I have a favorite, other than sweet elderly Silvia (19 this month), it’s Peter. So dignified.
Peter is terribly elegant, isn’t he?? Identifying ALL of Gaia’s kittehs was quite a task!
If there was an option to “love” this post I would totes click it, but alas I shall settle with merely “liking” it!
My day has been a bit rotten and this cheered me up no end (it’s the secret power of kittehs), so thank you!
Thank YOU for reading and sharing the kittehs, CPB! Hope your day gets better soon!
Oh, such a fun post! All of these cats are adorable. The picture of Rusty looking up so pensively as he sits next to the lily of the valley made me laugh out loud.
I think that Rusty is the most photogenic kitteh in the perfume blogging community! Those piercing green eyes, that pale orange fur!
Thank you both! Rusty is definitely getting an extra treat tonight in your name 🙂
Ari, it’s the cutest post ever!
It IS the cutest post ever, and I agree, Rusty should be in show business!
Newman is either extremely chuffed about being included in this post with so many other fine felines… or he is silently biding his time until he can steal my cell phone to call his lawyer. With this inscrutable Kittyboy, it is really hard to tell. Me, I am THRILLED TO BITS and thank you from the bottom of my kitty-worshipping heart! >^-.-^< (a cat kiss!)
It was my pleasure, Meg! And please don’t sue me, Newman! I’m sure we can resolve this out of court, perhaps with some Meow Mix?
This just warms my heart… Is it just me or are truly all cats beautiful?
It’s surely not just you, Christos!
Sooooo cute and what a brilliant idea! Understandably, it takes a while to scroll through The Non-Blonde’s particularly photogenic “litter”: – ) Then Bloody Frida recently lost her Rose, sadly.
I’m so sorry to hear that! If you ever read this, Bloody Frida, I hope that you are doing okay. Finding pictures of ALL of The Non-Blonde’s kittehs took me the better part of a half-hour, and I’m still not sure that I didn’t miss one or two!
All the kittehs are so cute! But The Non Blonde’s Betty looks so mischievous — love it!
Buffy is my favorite Non-Blonde kitteh. I LOVE the chubbeh ones!
I’m favoriting this in my phone for when I feel blue! But I think we have a bit of a Diva on our hands…Ezra meowed at me to get him a publicist. 😉
Great idea! That’s what I just did, thanks to you! Whoo hoo!
perfect post to lift our spirits
thanks, Ari
I’m so happy you think so, Irina! If you ever decide to start a perfume blog, I insist on adding Dagobert to this list!
Although Toupée is the cat of my life I must admit that Undina’s Rusty is the most regal, intelligent and sensitive looking of them all!
🙂
I knew that when people don’t sleep they count sheep/elephants but now I know what they should do when they don’t eat 😉
This is hilarious! I adore Zelda and Paddington.
Ari, did someone say this was a cutest post ever? In case no one did (BS!), this is the cutest post ever! (I am typing this as my cat is purring loudly snuggled right next to me). Meow!
