Fry Cats

A person that She really likes is a guy named Stephen Fry. This is another English guy, and She rushes to assure me that She doesn't like every English Guy there is. Just smart ones, She says, and Stephen Fry is very smart.So She listens to him and tells everyone else to listen, too. I think most people are so surprised that She likes someone besides Her beloved Eddie that they are willing to check Stephen out.
Besides that, She finally got Her hair cut. The clever lady that cuts Her hair did a wonderful job. When you look at the front, Her hair is all white, but if you go around to the back, like I do, Her hair is still dark. What's up with that? Well, look at you, Coffee, She says.The hair on your chin is white, and the hair on your back - and all over the furniture - is creamy-brown. Was that some kind of an insult? I'll think about it and check back with you.
I saw a picture of my cousin Lion in his cone, and he looks very sad, but handsome. He was sleeping on his Mom's shoes. I predict some chewing in the future.
When She was buying a wedding present for some people who are dear to Her, the store didn't have what She wanted, so it took a while to find just the right thing.
Do you know that when She went to see Her OperaGirl, She didn't thiink She could do it, but She did, aand She didn't fall down once! But I still don't think She should go to England and help Eddie with the olympics, do you? Well, gotta run. Check with me later..

Arrangement Cats

What we did today was make a lot of arrangements. She has practically filled in Her whole calendar. Mostly, they are very nice things that She wants to do, but every so often there are just reminders of places She has to be. She likes to write things about meeting LW'sMom, and getting Her hair cut. She has a place on Her calendar when She is going to see people get their hair shaved off. She had better not take me to that place. She told me it was about getting money so kids like LW won't get sick.
Speaking of sick, our cousin Lion is home from the doc, but he has one of those nasty cones around his neck. She says it is for his own good, but I would like to lick his face to make him feel better.
How excited She was today when She got an email from her dear friend clear around the world. She has not heard from this friend in lots of weeks, and She was afraid. Her friend lives in a country that is not always safe to be in, but everything is fine now. This friend got Her beloved Eddie to sign Her birthday card when She had that big party. She would be sad to lose this funny, sweet girl. Another friend warmed Her heart tody. It was Deena'sMom. There was a lovely note in the mail, and She really cherishes that note. She said, Coffs, this friend and I are on the same page. I know what that means.
She ate the rest of Mable'sMom's soup for Her lunch, and it was so good that She scraped every bit out of the jar. Yes, I had a taste, and I gave it two paws up. I hope She is not too full to eat supper. I have that on my calendar. Poodle Tip. Get it?

Good Start Cats

Today was the start of a new week. We all felt better this morning, although I must say, I gave Her about three massages to be sure She would feel just fine. When She is sleeping and I give Her a little nip, so that She knows I love Her, It is not uncommon for Her to say stop that, in Her sleep. I can't get Her to understand about biting and love nips.
So anyway, we all got busy early on today. His mother has lost her keys again, and she insisted that He come over to where she lives and find them. I hope the people where she lives know that she is a trouble to Him. His mother always says after all I have done for you, you should be glad to help me. It makes Her start to gibber when she says that, because She knows His mother was not good to Him. Well, He got everything fixed for that very old person, and needed to rest when He came home. We just stayed here and kept working. Lots of little things got done, so we all feel good about that. She even managed to get an appointment to get Her hair cut. I have to laugh when She says She will need to put it into braids. pretty soon. She wants to ask Smudge'sMom to have lunch with Her, but not until She gets Her hair cut. Humans can be very entertaining. Kasey and I both think so.
Somethng is in the oven, and I think i will get a sniffle of it when it comes out. I may need to get a little taste of it when it cools off.. Toodles, everyone.

Peculiar Cats

This was a very peculiar day. You know she was intending to go to hear LW'sMom give a talk. When She woke up, She had a bunch of aches and pains, so She took some red pills and read the paper. Here's a surprise - She didn't even have some coffee-the-drink. After awhile She felt better, and was OK when Mable'sMom came to bring Her some soup. That soup was really delicious. She gave me a taste, and put some of it away to have later. After She and I worked on some changing things around in Her office, which is where I am now, She sat down and fell asleep. That's another peculiar thing. She never sleeps in the day. I guess She needs to drink that coffee.
I decided to go to sleep, too. I curled up on one of Kasey's soft blankets, which was OK, because Kasey was asleep in the box Her OperaGirl sent. Kasey still thinks inside the box, you see.
Well, later on, when She woke up, She felt OK. Don't worry, Coffs, She said. Old people get peculiar days once in awhile. Like His mother. That lady called six times so far, to complain to Him that He doesn't come to where she lives and fix everything. It makes Him feel so sad. What She says is if I ever get like that, just shoot me. I hope She never gets like that, because I don't want Him to shoot Her. I think She had a peculiar day, so I will give her some snuggles, and maybe have a nap on Her lap. Chow for now.

Curious Cats

There is a saying about cats and curiosity, and I don't like it. If anything kills Kasey and me, I prefer that it would be that we are snuggled to death! Or maybe overstuffed with shrimp! But we were kind of curious about a few things today. I keep wondering what is in those treats that He and She give to Kasey. They offered some to me, but I was afraid to eat them. What if they aren't good for me? And Kasey won't take butter from Her, unless She puts it someplace and goes away from it. But when it comes to open doors, both of us are curious. And noises. A strange noise can wake us out of a sound sleep. Last night the movie They watched had mice in it, and we both went to check that out. And when She yawned and I went very close and looked into Her mouth - well She had a big laugh over that. Hmmf.
She had a nice visit with Mable-and-her-Mom today. Everyone is so busy, it is a pleasure to have a visit. Tomorrow, LW'sMom will be talking at Her church. Maybe She will be able to return the dish that had the delicious food in it. If She goes, She will have to bring lollipops.
I will keep on being curious, but I will be more careful than Kasey. Mark my words, someday that curious sister of mine will get stuck in a cupboard. Have to check the dinner menu now, so I'll sign off now. See you tomorrow.

Box Cats

One thing She tells us all the time is that it is good to be out-of-the-box thinkers, so naturally when She got a wonderful box today, I told Kasey not to go into it. If you have been here before, you can guess what good that did! Well, She was too excited to care about the box, after She took the treasures out. Her OperaGirl has sent Her some presents, and I think the neighbors thought a siren had gone off! My ears are still ringing. Here's what was in the box: 1) a shirt that says Toronto, Canada. When She lived far away from here, She used to go to that city a lot of times, and She loves it there. OG had gone to see Her beloved Eddie there. Next, 2) a key ring from that same city. She quickly put Her house key on it. And then - tada - a picture of Eddie! She doesn't even care that She has to get another frame. This is a picture of Eddie all by himself. Look, Coffs, She said. Look how darling he looks. What He said is that we may have to move to a bigger house. That scared me for a minute, but then They laughed. He was just joking. I wonder why those pictures OG sends always make Her cry. She doesn't cry much, but it is usually when She is happy. I guess that's a good thing.
Well, the box is empty now. Kasey got out to see what all the excitement was about. Since I can get in the box and still think outside of it, becaue all of me does not fit, I may just give it a try. It looks like pizza tonight, so I may just stay in the box, as well. A-dyoo, mon chers.

Tell the News Cats

This is wondeful news. Katy'sMom called and said Katy'sBoy and-Girl are very happy in school and doing so well that there is peace and joy in their house. It made Her just so happy, especially since it is such a relief for Katy'sMom. Now she can go and do her new job with a peaceful mind. More good news is about His shoulder. Before Kasey and I came to live here, the doc fixed His other shoulder, and She was afraid this one needed fixing, as well. Did you ever hear of bone spurs? Well that's what is wrong this time, and He got a shot and some medicine, and now it is fixed - at least for now.
The store was not Her friend today, since they were out of stuff She wanted. That's OK, because She has enough to take care of Her cats. It was butter She went after, you see. All they had was butter without salt. She's afraid I won't like it. I'll let you know how that works out.
It was so nice to have lunch with Cleo'sMom yesterday. They always have a good time. She just loves Cleo'sMom, and She sent a book home with her for their girl. They had a wonderful talk and were making some plans.
She was joking with LW'sMom about returning her dish. LW'sMom is so busy they can't get together. She will return the dish next week for sure! He and She think LW'sMom is SuperGirl, like Her OperaGirl. Was She ever so busy with everything? He says She was, but that She has forgotten, now that She's old. Well, I am ready for a big drink of water and a few kibbles. TTYL.
