Anyone who owns a cat knows that, from the cat's point of view anyway, you belong to the cat, and not vice versa. So, with that reality in mind, I consider myself to be not Tom Gossett, husband of 21 years to Monica and father of Matt (11) and Jessica (20), but rather Sylvester's Human. As you can see from his confidently restful pose, Sylvester (or Syl or Silly, for short - and for good reason) is quite confident that I have the proper view of things.
As Silly's homo sapien, I have to say that I'm "owned" by quite a cat. This year old tabby can do the following:
1. Open any drawer in which a treat is hiding
2. Open any bag in any drawer in which a treat is hiding
3. Extract a drinking straw from a glass container full of straws (with a lid) without knocking over the container or spilling the other straws
4. Eat all of his food AND have time to make sure that "his" other cats (Hermione and Charlie) are unable to eat their food until he wolfs down half of it.
In this blog, I'll give you an update of Silly's activities, post photos of his latest antics, and maybe even opine about things of interest to his human. Syl won't mind if I occasionally talk about things like the rest of his human or cat family, technology, movies, project management or other things I care about. And if he does - that's tough (please don't tell him I said that).

Hm, Syl must share genes with Her Royal Highness the Princess of Fluff (aka Fluff). I've been attached to Fluff for 9 years.
Two of Fluff's accomplishments are her fetching capabilities and her refined tastes in scratching materials (fine leather).
Fluff shares her space with another human, Brenda, and two other felines - Pheist Marie and Scooter Milton Braage.
Looking forward to sharing kitty antics in the future.
