Reader of the Week

Posted on 8 March 2010 | By Trisha |9 Comments

Reader Sila from Jakarta sent this picture of her neighbor’s cat, Lukpi, who popped over one evening to read Let’s Go Ride a Bike with her.

We're big with the Indonesian cat crowd

It reminds me of what I told my mom when she asked me what Dottie and I talked about enough to email several times a day. “I don’t know . . .  books, politics, bikes, feminism, cats—the important things in life.” A quick review of our archives reveals that all of these things (especially the cats!) have popped on our blog, so maybe it’s not so surprising that the site has become popular with members of the feline persuasion.

If anyone else has caught their cat reading LGRAB, consider this an official call for submissions. And hey, if we get more than five over the course of this week, we might have to consider it a contest and offer a prize. Liven up our workdays — email those pics.

  Well, I’m sure our cats would be interested in LGRAB, except that they seem to be a bit too lazy to be too interested in anything but food

  If my cat were still around, I’m sure she’d read LGRAB, too!

  I think that the only thing mine are interested in is sleep and food. That and occasional urge to wedge themselves between me and the laptop in order to divert my attention towards them for ear scratches.

  Thanks, Sila! Lukpi is so cute. I’m going to have to stage some photos of my cats reading LGRAB. Of course, we like dogs, too

  Yes, that pretty much covers our conversations, plus obsessing about whatever trip we’re planning and food.

  My kitty is too much of a recluse to read blogs:)
  Maybe I can get her to participate but I doubt it!!
  Great photo!!!

  Hi Girls,
  This is great! Thanks for posting this photo
  I got caught up with work and planning for a getaway trip that I’d only seen this post now.

  Thanks again and hope to see more cats and dogs fans on LGRAB!

  Sila
