I actually thought I was <em>reclaiming<\/em> the book because it looks like the kind of thing I would have bought and reported on, only to have my young boys poach the book from my shelves and put it into their rooms.  But, maybe not: I don&#8217;t see a mention of the book in either a Good Book Hunting post or a previous book report, so maybe it was one of the things we picked up for them at ABC Books when I dragged them up there before they got phones.  Well, it&#8217;s <em>mine now<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>So: This is an official <em>ICanHasCheezburger.com<\/em> book.  You know, I first mentioned that site on this blog in <a href=\"https:\/\/brianjnoggle.com\/blog\/2007\/05\/07\/i-has-time-killerz\/\" target=\"_new\">May 2007<\/a>, so not quite twenty years ago.  Clearly, I was or am the target market for the content: Pictures of cats with captions.  Although this book is about <em>kittens<\/em> specifically.<\/p>\n<p>Okay, amusing.  I have to admit that I&#8217;ve not hit that Web site in a long time, even though in 2007, the olden days, I hit it several times a week.  Maybe the modern stream of memes on social media and in meme posts on blogs have taken their place.<\/p>\n<p>But this cute little book was a quick browse, and as I said, amusing.  And the authors\/proprietors have had better luck than I have trying to capitalize on kittens and cats (of Nogglestead), which include a soon-to-be defunct line of t-shirts at <a href=\"https:\/\/nicosez.com\/\" target=\"_new\">NicoSez.com<\/a> (ah, gentle reader&#8211;am I giving up by planning to not renew for a third year of Web hosting and expensively provided SSL management?  Yes, yes I am; although my intentions and my actions often do not coincide) and two apps (<a href=\"https:\/\/apps.apple.com\/us\/app\/nicos-kitty-translator\/id6754846011\" target=\"_new\">Nico&#8217;s Kitty Translator<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/apps.apple.com\/us\/app\/feline-fly-assassin\/id6760732926\" target=\"_new\">Feline Fly Assassin<\/a>, both featuring my cats).  So they&#8217;ve got that going for them, which is nice.<\/p>\n<p>And I have 39 books read this year.  100 is within reach!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I claimed this book when we culled the bookshelves in my youngest&#8217;s bedroom in January.
