Eternal Question again

Does this set of steps make me look..um...floofy?

I closed my eyes because mom had to use the flash. It's so dark in here. But this is where I sit and soak up all kinds of loves and kisses and petting and kisses..when mom is on that computer (again!)

MOM! That is an UNFLATTERING PICTURE! We'll just see about THAT!

This is me,trying to be impressed with the new toy mommy bought me at the kitty toy store yesterday! It's a almost hummingbird sized felt birdy that actually has a birdy song that starts each time its touched. Do I care!? Read my beautiful lips. No I do not. Silly mommy kept activating its sound hoping I would at least reach out and bat it once..nope. Not gonna do it. So there went five green papers plus tax. I hope when my Plague Ratsie and nanner comes, I will be more enthusiastic on accounta mama won't buy me as much if I don't show some thanks someway or other.

Me and mommy DID chase one another up and down the hallway though, and she teased me with waggling her fingers outside of the window to my new house! I loved that! I even kept my claws tucked up tightly so I wouldn't accidentally scratch her.

You talkin' to ME?

How do I ignore thee? Let me count the ways!

We is Following Directions!

Fanks you Ms Stella O'Houligan!!

Kitty stuffs

Mom has so much kitty stuffs in the room where she and I snuggle and visit all of you kitties in the CB.

She doesn't know how to post more than one picture ( she is SO pitiful about computer things..I feel sorry for her) so she can't show you all the kitty stuffs she has in here. So she'll show you the best picture in the house that's on the wall in our laptop room. She said when she saw it she had to have it, 'cause it reminded her of me, watching for her to come home from work.

Wordless Wednesday

My thanks to mom

Kitties!!! You know, my mom does an awful lot for me and puts up with a lot FROM me. Like my singing realllllly loud when it's v-e-t day, and my nightly announcements about dust mote and moonbeam populations while she's still asleep. It's easy for me to see she that loves me. She's a good steward- as are all of my kitty friend's mom's and dad's.

But I give back just as you kitties do. Last night after we headed to bed. I always let her read awhile before I come up onto the bed because she closes the book when I do hop up with her, knowing I will be a Sphinx on her chest for awhile and then I'll snuggle into her neck and shoulder. I pat her face to say I love you and then, we sleep and wait for another day.

By the way,mommy said she got me my puzzle box at one of the larger pet supply stores. It cost her about 27 green papers as it is made of wood.

Please go see Jack's mom on the CB and offer her some loves and bonks and purrayers because her furbaby Jack was just diagnosed with cancer. You can learn how to help here on the CB and on Twitter.

We both, mom and me, send our love and purrayers to precious Jack and his family.

I told mommy to show you one of our best bird TV stars! She did.

xox

Here I am, playing with my puzzle box. Sometimes I deliberately insert my arms most of the way in, and fall asleep with my head on the top. But here, I am industriously working toward getting my toys out.

My new Toys

Mommy said I could only have one new toy at a time. i can have the Ratsie to play with when they come or I can have the 'nanner to play with but not both at the same time. She said (and I admit it) that I get bored after awhile and she wants to have something ready for then.

Thank you for saying how pretty I looked and I wore that hat to Calle and Halle's party yesterday. I went out and played with Mommy Cat and Daddy Cat too, in their big playroom/garage. They were as gracious as Calle and Halle..that was no surprise as they are all hospitable as well as beautiful.

This afternoon, I got to sleep on mommy's lap for a leg numbing hour and a half. Do I have a loving mommy or what!?

I looked so pretties!

I looked SO pretties I wanted all the man cats to see me and the girl cats too, so I asked mommy to leave me there to show off.

Rupert, thank you for coming to see me all dressed up. I wanted to please you. No other flirty man cat came and see me..so you and I only had eyes for one another. I'm so glad you liked my new hat. *blushes*

Mommy was so proud of me that she just ordered me a Plague Ratsie and a banana. I can hardly wait! Maybe it won't take too long.

I will come around to your homes now as soon as I give you a head bonk.

Femme Friday

LOOK at ME! Sammy and Andy's mom gave me this gorgeous new girly hat! Me and Mommy are just so happy with how it looks on me. I will be so proud to wear it everywhere and show it off. It's so feminine, just like me. Mommy is smiling and smiling at how I look. I hope a certain man cat will see me and come clean my ears for me one day, MOL.

I need mom to put a mirror here at the foot of her desk so I can look at myself. I don't remember ever looking so grand.

Happy Femme Friday all of my Lady Cat friends. ♥♥♥

Tocktober

Here is my feminine entry with my floofy 'tocks. Not too sultry..not too racy...

Mom? Mom??

Mom went off and left me in the company of some other human bean that she's friends with, and she was gone a squillion hours! I was prostrate on the floor and had eaten a great DEAL of the kibble in my dish! WHAT if I had run OUT?!?!? I could have fainted or something. I'm sure I DID faint!

Then, she comes home bringing that other bean in with her and they sat and talked about another squillion hours! I paced, (I revived with the fresh air coming thru the door...yeah, that's the ticket!) so, as I said, I paced..I trilled, I purred, I waited invitingly at her feet for combing..I allowed the fur to be kissed off my head and back..again! Sigh! But none of this takes away from the horrible neglect! I am calling the animal mean people bureau on you mom! Stop going off and leaving me till Kingdom's come!! I am soooo over that. Stop it right now. Get off the computer and let's go to bed. I have a lot to do getting you up at o'dark early so I need my rest.

Tortie Tuesday Torpor

I won!

Mom changed to fresh sheets soon after I get up.

ANYway, Mom went into the bedroom and took off the linens. I hurried too- and I was standing there at the foot of the bed and very interested. Mom jerked the sheets off, and hurriedly started the fresh bottom sheet onto the mattress. But too late. The interested party, me, leapt up like a 1 year old kitten and plopped right smack in the middle of the sheet that was only partially on. She went to the other side of the bed and tugged mightily but Her Majesty, me, did not move. So she pullllllled and pulled till she got all 4 corners anchored. Then, she gave up. I was asleep by then.

At 1100 when she got home and greeted me and she made a beeline straight back to my room but someone beat her to it. =^..^= She did get the top sheet anchored at the bottom of the bed and she was able to start bringing it up to the top. A giant leap for cat kind and I was flattened and spread out over the entire bed. Not an millimeter uncovered by by royal flesh and fur. She gave up. Several hours later I came out for a snack..and while I was cracking the morsels, she ran in there, and added the fleece blankie. Finally mid afternoon the bed was made. Nothing like cat help around the house.

Ladies and Germs..er I mean Lady Cats and Man Cats..

And if elected, I promise tuna in every food bowl in America. I promise your own personal water fountain in whichever room you want it. I will make sure there is a warm human lap to sleep on and be petted on whenever you wish.

I will make sure there are birdies in your trees so you can watch the Bird TV channel out of your windows each day. Squirrels where you can catch them and chipmunks to brighten your day however you choose.

I will see to it that you are brushed every day and two times on Sunday. And there will be no woofies allowed on your premises to take attention away from you.

Elect me your Regent. You won't regret it.

Wooooo...scary.....

Ghost Kitty. You can see the trail from the foot of the bed up to the plopping place.

The Admiral always sleeps on my bed. You can see where her claws caused pick marks in the fleece.

The One Who Came Before Me

I was thinking about what mom and her human kits have said on occasion while we were all in the living room. Robin, The One Who Came Before Me, was also a Tortie but she was mostly black with orange and buff little places attractively arranged on her furs. She had an orange paw that with age, turned to a soft butter color.

Mommy said and her human kits agreed that Robin was truly a cat among cats. A beautiful wee 5 pound wonder girl much beloved and cared for. She came when called usually believe it or not. She was allowed out--I, the Admiral never have been--but she had to be inside before dark, for the night. Many times Robin would come to the deck to be let inside if we were late calling her. They never learned her well taught lessons though..never EVER open the door without looking. Especially at night. She was mostly black, you remember I wrote- and in the dark, you could not see her..just hear her. They would absently mindedly open the door on her knock. She would tap her paw to the window or storm door, whichever and we would let her in..day or night.

HOW MANY TIMES she brought a live field mouse in with her to deposit in front of them for their supper..how many TIMES did she bring in a small snake..still wiggling..how often did she bring a small rabbit, still alive, a chipmunk, likewise alive and wiggling...a squirrel, a lizard, multiple bugs, birds, a frog..you get the idea and STILL..they would open the door without looking until the snake. Countless times thru her 16 years. That snakie finally cured them and they kept a flashlight on the table near the door to shine on her face. No more surprises. They would go outside and praise her and let the prey loose if still alive.

Mama's baby, Robin ultimately succumbed of renal failure despite all the green papers and love and daily trips to the v-e-t and them coming here. Much beloved..so preternaturally smart..but most of all, much beloved. Rest in Peace dear Sisfur before Me. Our mama and her kits loved you deeply. After all, you helped raise them all.

Life's Eternal Question...Feline Style

It's Mommy's Fault!

Mommy was gone just about ALL the live long DAY! Goodness, and I had kitties to go see and talk to but did she stay with me? Nooooo! So now I am stretched out (Hi Rupert...) on the desktop next to the laptop dictating. She said she would stay.

Kitties, I am guessing that the pet sitter had a flea or so hop onto her while visiting other pets she was pet sitting for. This is a business lady who charges 15 green papers per visit. Now that mommy has spent all those green papers for flea meds, she hesitates to say anything as now, I will be protected. It's hard to find a pet sitter in this a area. I think mommy and the v-e-t caught them in time because mom went over me with a literal fine toothed comb and there was nothing there. My skin was as white as snow. Mom can't love on me like she usually does on accounta I have that stuff all over my back making me look sticky- uppy and oily. But today that looks better. Mom just kisses my face and head for now though.

I will be walking through all of your bloggies right now.

Purrs and headbonks and thanks you for staying with me and purring for me when I was feeling so badly. I feel like a 5 years old girl now. I'm sleeping all the time with a smile and stretched out on Mommy, the beds, the floors , my boxes..good times..they are a rollin'. Just like me.

Better Day

I feel like a million cans of Fancy Feast! That's pretty darn good.

I will make Mom call the V-e-t in an hour or so and report how much better I am. He said to do so.

Mom had to lay out an extra 109 green papers for 6 months (+ one free) supply of fleas meds. The pet sitter brought in some fleas when she visited. That is the third time in 6 years that a sitter has brought fleas into my home. I suppose it happens because they go from home to home and pick up hitch hikers.I never go out but mom is sick of this. We caught it right at the beginning so perhaps this awful added trouble to my already present problem will be over quickly. I had several on me and they made me feel 100 times worse with itching than I already had. Mom said I will have it once a month regardless against this happening again. BUT I have had my allergy shot..my flea meds that should not have to have happened..but did. Several other things and mom left a lot more green papers there. I won't have my bloods tested until the end of November he said. That's good. Mom would have fainted dead away.

I stretched out twice my length yesterday in pure feel better bliss. I slept with a smile and most of the day! I was just the happiest girl ever. I feel so much better. I was singing Klingon Warrior songs and Klingon Opera yesterday while I was being put in my carrier and in the hallway and down the road and into my doctor's office. Everyone admired me so much, I could tell! I have a good delivery and I AM a warrior after all!

This is on my Hummingbird Channel. A girl Rubythroated Hummingbird at my feeder. Mommy said the last one left yesterday for her trip back to her winter homeland.

I got taken to the V-e-t!

Kitties!! Mom outsmarted me but almost didn't. I was just starting to get onto her intentions when she grabbed me. I was relaxing on her bed but as she approached me I saw that look in her eye and I started to become alerted! After she scooped me up, I sang all the way down the hallway,and the entire time she was putting on her shoes and jacket, all the way to the car and down the road. BUT: I got there and soon, I will feel better. A lot of those green papers mom had are over there with the v-e-t now but she says I'm worth it~! ♥♥♥

I will start feeling better in a day or so.

Purrs and bonks to all of you kitties.

Mommeh is Back

My Mom came home this afternoon and as always she just came in and laid down on the floor to love on me. It wasn't till much later she read the note from the pet sitter.

I did alright but I hid Thursday after mommy called for an appointment so I couldn't be taken to the V-e-t and I needed to go. Friday was too late because mom needed to go away to see her human kits and only just came home. I have terrible skin allergies that flare up as soon as the allergy shot wears off. It wore off and I need my shot and I need my bloods tested.

But she's home..I have been gently brushed, kissed, hugged, kissed some more..loved on..and a bunch more kisses. Now I am about to go to my wicker basket and have a peaceful nap, knowing she is here at last.

Mommy You stop that going away! Right NOW!

Kitties!

Kitties! Momma is going away! She had that leather bag out that she puts stuffs in whenever she is leaving me allll alone (not counting the pet sitter who comes 2 times a day to see to my needs while I am under the bed stubbornly refusing petting and brushing!)

She has taken those stuffs out to her stroller that goes everywhere with her in it and it also takes me to the v-e-t so I hate it!

She told me she'll be back Sunday afternoon but who will I snuggle with till then??? Who will answer my every call? Treats? Petting? Loves on my furry head and neck? NObody!

She called for an appt. with the v-e-t yesterday and I took off like my tayle was burning..a dead run straight under her bed. NO way she'll get me there badly as I need my allergy shot until she catches me asleep. Thing is, I can feel her tension. I make it as hard as possible on her even though I love her.

I will see you Sunday evening kitties. Miss you already.

Making it Difficults!

My mommy and I read about Spitty and HIS mommy and about how she follows him around with the flash box trying to get some good pictures of him to tease and taunt us lady cats in the CB. Well, he showed HER! I want to show you what *I* do to thwart MY mommy when she follows ME! Try to get a good picture from THIS, Mommy! I will turn my face no matter what you do and crowd under the chair legs! Ha! Ha!!

Furbabies

Sadly, too many of our furbabies are leaving us to go to the Bridge. I won't cause more sadness by dwelling on it more than I am mentioning it now but I wanted to say that we all feel that loss right along with the pet parents.

Here is an expression of love and hope for the furbabies and mom's and dad's during this sad time. Purrs.

The Admiral's Mommy

"My House" By Admiral P. Floof

Kitties!! I decided on my decorations for my new house yesterday evening but I wouldn't leave the house for my assistant to help till bed time, but mom said (at my direction) that she would add my red fleece blankie that belongs to me..not the one on our bed. I may put a fishie at my window. I went into my house and looked out of the window a lot this morning and then, the painter man came and I retired to my royal chambers under the bed to think over more decorating schemes. He is making our living room look refreshed and since he is doing that, mom decided to have an accent wall too. It's the wall with the least amount of wall MOL, in case it looks bad. So far, so good. I will come out later and inspect and make my pronouncements.

I loved having a chance to come and see you all at your houses. I'm so glad mommy is home for awhile.

Tortie Toosday

Look Kitties! Mom was gone all day and she wasn't much here yesterday either! BUT...look what she brought me for my floofy self!!! A new house. I am so thrilled.

Mom hasn't been home or has been with family so after yesterday early, she wasn't able to visit really or today either on accounta she wanted me to have a NEW HOUSE! It even has a window!!

Livestrong

The badge is our way of honoring today, Saturday October 2, 2010 as Livestrong Day. We looked and looked and we don't have any yellow toys or clothing. But both of our hearts are with those who need us to purr and pray.

Mom paid attention sort of today. She was combing me here at the computer and I was purring extra loud so she still combed. Yes, my tail was swishing back and forth a little but still all I had to do was turn around to the offending hand with the comb and put my teeth on her wrist so gently. I turned away from her wrist as quickly as I touched it with the barest hint of my fangs. It was truly so gentle no one would complain. A baby could have borne that easily, it was so gentle and soft a bitey. I felt badly about the more severe ones this past month. I got the point (no pun intended) across and she stopped combing. Now the brushy..that's another thing. I get tired of that in a hurry but I also don't want any mats.

Mommy is just back. She was out taking pictures, and gave up temporarily on the new 55 mm lens. This weekend she'll be with her son and he will help with the learning curve. ♥

Yeah, I was sleep walking..that was it!

I must have been sleep walking. I'm sure of it. How else would I find myself lying on Mom's head during the night? I have never done such a thing before so that has to be the reason. She tells me I also walked up another time in the deep night time and scented all of her hair..over and over and then, settled down to sleep on her pillow at the top of her head. That is not me..trust me.

Then she tells me I came into bed again at another separate time and while I didn't really say anything to her, I made sure she was breathing by putting my face into hers. She was, and so I left as silently as I came up to check on her. She mentioned to me over breakfast of toast and kibbles, toast being hers, that I came up and inspected or scented about six times.

I don't remember any of it but I know she wouldn't have told me were it not so. I hope I rest better tonight. I just heard her say "YES! ME TOO" as she typed. Hey, I'm not responsible for sleep walking! It must have been that cluster of four kitty vitamins before bed. Yeah, that's it.
