The Scratching Pad

Diesel is a cat, not a petroleum product. He lives in the Adirondack Park with his two people and his pal Alex, a female stripey cat (and purebred Iowa Wildcat). Diesel has things to share, observations about the world around him from his feline perspective. In these pages you'll follow Diesel's paws-on exploration of places, people, critters, issues and more. Welcome to Diesel's domain and the unique perspective of a curious Wisconsin Snowcat.

Diesel has passed away, but this blog of fun stories from a catperspective lives on. Dig around, read about D's tryout for the Green Bay Packers, learn about snow, read the tail of his early life, his thoughts on the Occupy movement and journalism and his recommnedations for identifying fabrics unappealing to a cat looking for an art project.
