A day in the life of a troublemaker

I'm learning a new language

Mom woke up this morning and heard me practicing my new language. Mom said she thought she heard a bird, she rolled over to see because it sounded like it was in the room. What she saw was me lookin out the window talkin to the birdies. I must be pretty good already cause mom was shocked, she really thought it was a bird!

"Chirp, chirp chirp"

I was really interested in the birdies this morning. Ever time I heard a crow I ran to the window.

Side note:
Mom has decided to start trying to brush our teeth. As a vet assistant she says she should really be setting up an example. At first when she brought out the brush with the minty toothpaste I smelt it and got far away cause it was scary! So she tried to brush my teeth which isn't my favourite but after I've escaped I went back to see again. Mom laughed cause I kept coming back and she kept brushing my teeth. She says she can't do it thoughroughly but better then she thought she could. Moppie was a little harder but Mom says its workable. Moms planning on getting one of the tooth pastes that can be licked around and will still clean even if she doesn't get to all the teeth.

Anyways, this is Moms saying this. She says if you've never tried to brush your cats teeth and your scared, it doesn't hurt to try!! They may surprise you, it won't be the same as brushing dogs teeth though. Be patient! mom will give updates if it gets easier or if she gives up, Mol. Just remember never to use human tooth paste, and some dog toothpastes may not be good to use either.

Sorry in advance!!

Chirp!

***********
Oops forgot!
Also the other night Mom noticed we turned the radio on, she was gonna leave it and turn it off when she was gonna go to bed. When she was in bed she realized that the radio was off!! Her mind was blown. We turned the radio on and off!! MOL.

Moppie's licking all my toys!!

Moppie is taking all my toys and licking them and making them look nasty. They are never the same after he is done with them. mom recently got one of those feather sticks to go in the middle of our turbo scratcher. He licked it and it now looks dead and lifeless. So sad...

We're starting to look forward to spring. We didn't get a lot of winter here this year, it actually looks like everyone else is getting all the weather right now. We are getting a lot of rain but there is nothing new with that, after all we are the rainiest city in Canada.

Moms job search has indeed been very complicated. She now has a job at a regular clinic. Unfortunately there is no clinic cats at this clinic so if there are interesting stories them we'll Just have to share them. Mom will be starting full time in march so she is going to be very busy and away from home quite a bit.

During Mom's time off between jobs Mom has had some time to pick up her hobby of drawing. after doing a few drawings she decided to try expand to painting. I posted the picture she painted of me, Mom also drew a picture of Mallee for Moppie to give her a gift for valentines day. It s at the end of Moppie's pictures, may be a little harder to find.

I'm looking forward to mom having money again to spend on us! I want a new bag of treats! Hehehe.

Purrs,

I'm jealous of the dog!

Ok, so cats are obviously better then dogs, but are we above jealously? I don't think so... I am a window watcher, I like watching what is going on outside, but to my surprise I often see Mom and Stewie walking together outside, and often other dogs too! Why must I be trapped in here and watch them adventure the good outdoors. But it's not only dogs, it's cats too! I see cats outside! Why must we only get to watch anyway? Stewie could meet the cats if he really wanted to, but they seem smarter then him. We saw one where went out and he ran off behind a house. Stewie stood there stunned cause he didn't notice him earlier, MOL. Ok so I know Mom has promised to take us out but I'm gonna have to take her up on this promise soon cause its abut time.

In other news, (Mom said I get to share the news.) You may have read Simon and Tony's last blog that Mom lost her job there. Anyway, she has been on the hunt for a new job for a few weeks now. She has finally got a job! Woot! She will be starting this Thursday, and it will only be 2 days a week right now as she is training but it is supposed to be full time eventually. And what you guys may like about it is that it is an all cat clinic! There are three clinic cats there right now, they are actually up for adoption so the clinic cats may change over time. Mom hopes to set up a profile for them once she gets settled in the job.

There is not a whole lot new here otherwise. It's nice that mom has been home more and we are finally on a normal schedule again. Overnights really mess with routines, everything gets thrown off.

Anyways, As you know valentines day is coming up, I hope to find Sweetie and ask her if she will be my Valentine again!
