hehe.
My cat got into my bookshelf (my books are only half unpacked so there's room). I just thought it was cute.

:p
If this is me just being a sappy pet owner, well, sorry :p

I like the pictures.....
- the cat *is* cute
- the cat's eyes look different colours in the first picture, which is cool
- and I am enjoying trying to read the titles of your books ;)

I love that a Star Trek book is right next to the Career tests one. Something tells me that Starfleet isn't a possibility mentioned in the book.

Yep, she has one gold and one mostly blue, but partially gold eye. They end up looking weird in photos because the mostly blue eye doesn't seem to have the tapedum lucidum, the light-reflecting stuff, in it (at least that's how I reckon. I was outside once and looked in through my window to see THREE eyes (I have two cats) staring back at me through the dark).

She's a beaut, and looks very well behaved.
Unlike my goat of a cat, who loves to chew on poor defenseless books. Mass market, trade, even hardcover...nothing is safe from his little choppers.

I recognize and own almost all of those books. :-D
(I sold the Tanya Huff ones back to the used book store because mind-control lesbian twincest pregnant rape is like, at least one squick too many for me to handle for an entire novel at a time. I am, perhaps, unduly sensitive.)

That makes me think of the old "So You Want To Be A Scientist" (or similarly titled) book I bought from some friends when they moved. I love old science books, especially where the field of knowledge for that science has either greatly expanded since its publication or that science is now completely debunked.
This book was interesting as a view into the past, but turned out to be a bit chauvinistic. Something along the lines of, "Even women may enjoy a career in the sciences, as the men always need someone to wash the beakers and petri dishes."
Cute kitteh. :D

Lovely cat. The two eye color thing makes her look tough. Like a grizzled veteran from some fuzzy war, watching over your knowledge.

And you can just see the head of one of my cats in picture #4.

Niiice. That motivates me to get to unpacking the rest of my books, though I'm still pretty sure you have more than me. :p
For aesthetic value I like that matched set of hardcovers in the last couple pics, though I can't tell what they are. They look lovely.

Mine just sits there and poses.

That would be the Britannica "Great Books of the Western World" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Books_of_the_Western_World) series. That tall black shelf unit contains all the books I inherited from my father.

Hmm. The only one I've got is ST Imzadi.
