Name: Veers
Country: Thailand
Metro: Krung Thep
Birthday: 5/23/1988
Gender: Male


Interests: Swimming (freestyle . . . don't even mention the dog paddle); eating; sleeping; being reasonably cute; catching snakes, small innocent house lizards, big dinosaurish outdoor lizards, rats, mice and (alas) the occasional bird.
Expertise: Welcome to the home of Thailand's only swimming cat, a fat, lazy, neutered male with a gorgeous striped coat and ever-so-slightly crooked tail. His name is Veers (as in "Everybody fears Veers"), and he enjoys watching the world go by from the comfort and safety of our kitchen doormat in a suburb of Bangkok. From time to time Veers will deign to comment on the world in general, cats in particular, Thailand in all its chaotic glory, food, sleeping positions, and the people who share his home. Sir Winston Churchchill is credited with having said, "I like pigs. Dogs look up to you, cats look down on you, but pigs treat you as an equal." I don't know about the dogs and the pigs, but the part about cats is right on the button, Sir Winston.

Hot News! Swimming Cat Abandoned by Ungrateful Humans; Vengeance Planned . . . So, Mom and the kids have gone to Idaho and left me here in Thailand with Dad. This in itself is Not Good, but to make matters worse they have "fallen in love" with Grandma's two new cats (who used to be Uncle Hal's cats until he moved to Hawaii), Miss Kitty and Miss Mouse. This is disgusting news and I am, frankly, Disgusted! The only cat that my humans are allowed to be in love with is ME! Next thing you know they'll be posting the other cats' photos here on my website. Extreme Measures are called for. Watch this space for important developments in the vengeance department . . .

Cheers from Veers, Thailand's Most Disgusted Cat

News Flash! Gigantic Thunderstorm Humiliates Swimming Cat!

I'm really too embarrassed to tell you how frightened I was by yesterday's big storm. As the largest cat for miles around, I should be an inspiration to all . . . instead, I spent the afternoon curled into the smallest possible ball on the kitchen doormat, with both paws over my ears. It was humiliating, but I really, really hate the sound of thunder. I don't mind getting wet ~ after all, I am a Swimming Cat ~ but I'm averse to loud noises. Am I the only cat who freaks out during thunderstorms?

Horrifying Happenings in Thailand

I just posted a comment on the April 23rd entry below, telling about a Horrifying Happening in Thailand . . . not for the weak of stomach, and definitely not for those who are afraid of snakes.

Even Highly Intelligent Swimming Cats make mistakes now and then . . . I managed to delete all of my photos. Will try to have them back up in the next couple of days but will probably need a little help from my (human) friends. Mea culpa . . . or rather, meowa culpa.
