Maybe this month’s round-up is delayed because the Tonight Show just moved back to New York.
Maybe this month’s round-up is delayed because New Jersey has gotten so much snow that road crews are actually pouring actual pickle juice on the roads in a fiesta of frozen brine.*
Maybe this month’s round-up is delayed because I’m not getting enough riboflavin.
Most likely, this month’s round-up is delayed because I am a dunderhead. But February waits for no woman, so without further kerfuffle, here come de news.

Photos all by the dazzling Jess of the volunteer variety.
*Which is awesome, because New Jersey already had a reputation for being really fragrant. Winning!
**Apparently basic decency and decorum can’t hold us. We should be ashamed of ourselves for giving a cat this name.
***Ashamed and also banished from all thrift shops for 90 days. By the way, that would be The Mack himself in the top left photo.
Love Violet’s new official photo, showing her sense of humor! Some wonderful new cats have been given the opportunity to come to Tabby’s Place in January. Thank you Angela, it was worth a fortnight’s wait. I always think Hobbes is so handsome!
Finally! At so very long last! These posts are my favorites. I’m so excited that Hobbes is now in the office of the BIG CHEESE. I bet he is loving it. Hopefully he gets along well with his officemate Doc.
Alaric? If we are going that route for naming, you next cat should be named Odoacer….
