Quiet Cats

It has been pretty quiet around here today. They went far away to Krausen's house to have a birthday party with Krausen's mom. They love K's Mom, and all the people there, especialoly the one She calls Mazie, so they were excited to go. We are never invited to birthday parties. That left us here to entertain ourselves, so we had a quiet day. It was raining hard, so there was no fun looking out the window. There was no spot of sunshine on the floor, so I had to go snooze on a pillow. Kasey has a soft blanket that They put on the bed for her when They go away, so she was cozy there. I don't mind telling you that it makes a long day when They aren't home. It is no fun for Kasey and me to chase each other when They aren't here to laugh at us. I will be more careful about saying I wish They would go away. At least I had my butter this morning, and some water from the silver cup. She was so happy with Her new toaster! I would not want to miss that.
I will go and listen for Them to come home, and pretend to be asleep! Tata.

Cat Trick

I am laughing so hard I can hardly write my story today! They were searching for me and calling Coffee, hey, Coffs, hey, Coffster. They asked Kasey, where's your brother? and she told Them she didn't know and didn't care. They looked in the closet, and in the laundry room, which was silly, because I never go in the laundry room. Kasey does that. They looked in all the rooms, even in the bathtub! They were so silly that They even looked outside! I never go outside, and even Kasey hardly ever sneaks out. I don't know what made Her look under the cabinet where the TV is. I guess they were desperate for someplace to look. She wasn't even sure she saw me under ther, and called Him to look. Yes, He said, there he is. I didn't know Coffee could even fit under there, He said. Well, I finally came out from under there, and haven't stopped laughing since! I was glad to put some fun in the air, it has been so bummer around here lately.
I'm going to eat now. Toodle pip. (Or poodle tip - get it?)

That 13 Thing Again

He and She are very sad today, because Mable's Mom has to have an operation on her bad knee. He said bummer when She told him, and He hardly EVER says bummer! She said don't talk to Her about Friday the 13th, because she doesn't believe in it, but I can't help but wonder.....last time it was Friday the 13th, I had to be very wary and careful! Things do not feel right today, either, so Kasey and I are going to hide in the closet where it is safe and cozy. It is lucky that I had my butter before She found out about the bummer news. She says She is going to make soup, because soup makes everything better. Some nice people brought soup to M'sM, and she told Her it made her feel better. She says those friends are angels She believes in!
I'm off to the closet, now. Stay safe!

Cozy Cat

It seems as if summer is not here after all. If you look out the window, it is raining, and the sun is not making a spot on the floor where I can sleep. That's OK, though, because They said it was very cold outside. Katy didn't even come over for an extra breakfast, because she doesn't want to get wet and cold. I found a nice place where there was a soft pillow, and I curled up on that. Very cozy. I am glad Kasey and I don't have to go outside. We don't have to get too cold or too hot. She didn't mind going out today, though. She went to see the Alphas, which are LW and her three sibs. LW's Mom gives her good food whenever She goes there, and She says the Alphas fix whatever is wrong in her heart! She is all Hey, Coffster when She comes home from there. She really loves those Alphas and their Mom and Dad.
He has opened the closet door, so I will go in and find a cozy place for a snooze. TTYL

Fish for Dinner!

Here's what happened. It was the day She has lunch with Her Crones. They go to a place where the menu is very long, and sometimes they give Her two! She always likes what they give her to eat, so She told them to give Her one lunch for Herself, and one for Him. Of course, He wasn't there. Men cannot be Crones, She says. But She thought He would like a change from the dinners She calls not-very-clever. She ordered the best dinner in the whole place (in my never-humble opinion). She brought home FISH for dinner! Oh, She put it in the coolbox to wait until it was time, but not before I got a sniff of that fish! Since She brought home half of Her lunch, They will both have fish, and I believe there will be plenty to share! Just in case They don't think of it, I will go and practice making my begging-face. She says I look like the cat from Shrek when I make that face. I don't know who that is, but as long as it gets me fish, it works for me! Kasey will want fish, too, but she doesn't have a begging face, so she will be out of luck, unless He sees her looking hungry. I'm off to practice my face, now. Toodle Pip

Butter-Cat

Luckily for me, I don't panic. Oh, yes, I get wary and watchful, but if I WERE going to panic, it might have been today! You see, She got up early, but She just got cleaned up and dressed, and skipped Her bagel. At first, I thought She was sleepwalking, but it turned out that She was taking Mable's Mom for an emmareye. I don't know what that is, but She seemed worried that it might be bad news for M'sM. So She left without reading Her paper or giving anycat (ahem) some butter. I watched out the window, annd after a long time, She came home and told Him that M'sM seemed better. THEN She fixed Her bagel! Since I had waited so long, I had about ten fingers-full of butter before I "lost interest" and walked away. That was a close call. I should have known She wouldn't leave me butterless, though. I watched the cheeky birds out the window while She read Her paper, and now everything is normal again! It is safe for me to find a cozy spot and have a nap. Bye.

Is It Summer?

Since She retired, She says time is different than when She went to Her school job. I didn't know Her then. Shr had to get up very early and was gone all day, She says. Now She has more time to play. It is very warm and nice outside, She says, but Kasey and I don't go out, so we have to believe Her. But this is suspicious to me. She went to the temperature box on the wall, and She turned on the air conditioning! Last year She didn't do that until it was summer, so I wonder.....Is it summer yet? I can usually tell when the kids are out of school, but She says LW's sibs are home from school now. All this de-cluttering and air-conditioning, when we just had Her birthday makies me confused. When I am confused, I need extra snuggles and a couple of extra naps. I think I will find Her and get my snuggles now. Then naps until it is time for kibble. TTYL
