Rose is Rose by Don Wimmer and Pat Brady for September 21, 2020

I usually have one or the other of my cats in my lap during virtual class. Last week, he decided to get up and start sniffing and rubbing the camera. Everyone got a nice close up of one eye and his nose. I let it happen and didn’t stop him because I thought it was funny. Can’t do that in a classroom.

A break from the mundane.

Don’t let Peekaboo on the computer, or you’ll get “Kitten on the Keys!”

Just grow a small pot of cat-nip and put it somewhere away from the virtual class.

“But she can be our new class mascot!”

I know of a few teachers started the virtual year out asking everyone to introduce pets, siblings, or other family members that might end up in view during class so that later the kids wouldn’t interrupt to ‘show off’.

Peekaboo is wise. He/She decided to audit the course before enrolling.

She’d enjoy a school of sardines too.

Zoom bombing! It’s a thing. Who knew.

Auditing the class for personal development

and I’m sure it’s a welcome little break

Love it! Guarantee that one or more of my 3 cats would be photobombing too.

Well, these are the pleasant changes when we have migrated to online classes. The cat seems to be more eager in learning than Pasquale.
