Perfect! Can't think of anything else to say. It's just - perfect! Love it.

Brilliant! I would love to add this postcard to my collection, but it would set me off in yet another direction – cats playing games – I wonder how many such cards there are.

The title of your Blog sums up everything nicely. We have chess and we have Russia. All I need to do is to image a little violin music in the background and you have it all.

My cats don't know how to play chess (& neither do I)!

Joy said...

So funny. I must admit my brain is not analytical enough for chess but I can appreciate sitting on a nice warm radiator.

Purrfect!

Are you in cahoots with Doug (Crazy As a Cool Fox) on this? Both entries are bizarre -- and both are wonderful!

Kristin said...

Ha! Now I have to go see Doug's entry to see how bizarre his is.

Love this!

What fun and a perfect match.

My cats only do jigsaw puzzles. Perfect and funny fit for the theme.

Very educational! I have learned today that "e2-e4" (the graffiti in the picture) is a chess move!

I didn't even pay attention to the graffiti! Thank you for pointing that out.

Barbara Rogers said...

So funny! Love the picture. Some artist did it!

Is that vodka? Do cats drink vodka? Why not if they play chess. I knew they had more going on behind those whiskers.
