おじさまと猫 「スリスリ派」

Ojisama to Neko: “Nuzzle Buddies”

Notes: “Nuzzle” may not be the most accurate translation for “surisuri,” but I thought it had a warm and fuzzy ring to it that fit the imagery better than “rub-rub” or something similar. Also, Fukumaru tends to speak in third-person (lit. “Fukumaru loves being petted,” “Fukumaru thinks so too,” etc.) I considered leaving this in, but I thought it might be a little confusing, for readers who aren’t familiar with the cat’s name yet.There’s not much information about this series available in English, but I hope that changes soon.

I’ve been reading the Ojisama to Neko comics that @sakurai_umi_ has been posting on twitter, and they’re SO SWEET AND CUTE; SOMEONE HOLD ME. I really hope this takes off in Japan and gets popular enough to get an official translation. I’ll buy every volume.

Ripley has a very good grasp of the word “touch” and we often use it as a command word to get him to try to be less afraid of new things or to ask his permission to pet him. He knows if we ask him to “touch” a person or object, he’ll be praised for gently tapping his beak against it. He also knows exactly what we mean when we ask him not to touch something,

Today I yelled at him for biting the wall and he did probably the pettiest thing I’ve ever seen him do: he went around touching stuff in the room and saying “no” and staring at me to make sure I was watching him do it.

If you asked me if this text were about a parrot or a member of the presidential cabinet I honestly wouldn’t be able to tell you which.

It’s my last Veterans Day in active duty status and I’d be eternally grateful if you could help with my transition back into civilian life. All it takes is a reblog. Thank you!

I’d be a pretty rubbish if I worked on stories about fantasy soldiers all the time and never exalted the work of a real one doing amazing things. I feel that double-life struggle. Keep up the great work!
