Watchcats on break

Due to technical difficulties, I'm unable to post a Watchcat protocol photo today.  Imagine, if you will, though, a photo of Watchcat Rosie looking commanding, Watchcat Sammy looking even-tempered, Watchcat Nemo maintaining a poker face, Watchcat Sylvia looking heartwarming, Watchcat Collette  looking simultaneously menacing and playful, or Watchcat Lily looking in charge yet guarded.

That'll have to do for now.  Then again, there are 2,632 previous Watchcat protocol posts to enjoy, as well as other cat photos I've posted.  That should be sufficient to tide everyone over until the glitch is fixed.

That's how dedicated he was to his job in July 2009.

Watchcat protocol MMDCXXVIII

It doesn't happen often, but sometimes, a watchcat has to subdue a chair:

Mission accomplished for Watchcat Rosie, then, in November 2008.

Watchcat protocol MMDCXXVII

Watchcat Collette sat ready on July 30, 2025 to vaporize unauthorized visitors with the Intruder Zapper, a powerful laser that, um, well...Actually, it's a flashlight, so Collette can illuminate scofflaws, at least:
