On the Road is a weekday feature spotlighting reader photo submissions.
From the exotic to the familiar, whether you’re traveling or in your own backyard, we would love to see the world through your eyes.
On the Road will be all frosty next week. The Everglades, Zion National Park, the Grand Canyon, and finishing up with the Grand Staircase. As for today, I will be sad when we get to Cats 4 of 4. I love these cat photos!

Continuing in the third chapter of my four-part cat series, I’m featuring our two remaining indoor cats, Oz and Spike. We also have two outdoor kitties who are semi-feral and difficult to photograph, but who faithfully control the rodent population in collaboration with our seasonal fox and her family as well as the odd snake, the occasional owl, and any other random predators that manage to participate.
Oz grooming himself.
Baby Ozzie.
Oz enjoying the heat of my aluminum computer case and looking smug.

Spike’s turn to be on alert.

So, the Rump did lose and even his special op’s counting crew now agree:
Amazing, as bad as we heard that group was, they were totally honest after all and did an accurate job! I wonder why they were so determined to do this for the orange gas bag – unless these people really did both want the truth and believed, at the time, something was really wrong. I am amazed.

@Cermet:
I still don’t trust them. This was a learning experience for them under too much scrutiny to actually pull any stunts. But they made money and will probably get invited again and when the time is right…
Meanwhile, they’ll keep their powder dry.

Oz and Spike are beautiful. And the first picture, Oz grooming, is a terrific photo in every way.
As for the Happy Ninja Warriors, there should be an Open Thread up in an hour or so.

Those eyes! The sleekness! How you do dat? The second I take the lens cap off they move, and/or look anywhere else.

Oz on the computer case has a rather puma-ish about him.
