I am a cat once again!!! I am officially a cat!!!

HEAR YE...HEAR YE...BRADY HAS DONE IT.

I have caught and killed a mouse. Yes indeed, I did it. Mom and Dad and little Ben went on a trip (without me) and I saw this little mouse. I named him Edgar, and we played and had some fun. Edgar was telling me that Mam and Dad just left me never to return, but I knew that was not the case. I was telling Edgar I was thinking of getting Dad a gift when he returned, but I was having a hard time thinking of what to get him.

Well, it seemed to me that Dad was sort of ashamed of me for being a F.O.M. that I decided I would have to sacrifice Edgar. Of couse I did not tell him of my plans. Well, while he was snoozing, I snuck up on him and...did the deed. I sort of felt bad, but I know I would earn my cat stripes and I knew that Dad would say "BRADY IS A CAT!!!!!" And Guess what...when I gave him Edgar as a gift he was surprised and put him it his white seat with the water in it, and I never saw Edgar again.

Dad seemed happy but told me I needed to still try to be Friends with Mice first. Any way, I am still friends with Howard who is living in the basement, Dad does not know about him yet...

Until next time!

New Brother

Hello, I have been shamed into not writing due to my friend of mice issues. But I am here to announce that I have a new brother. He is a human named Benjamin. I guess mom and dad must really like him because he got my room! Can you believe all of the stuff they bought me for the last 9 months was really for him! I am no fool though, I still hid under his little bed. They even moved my bathroom! The horror.

Anyway, I'm not sure what to think right now, he sleeps all the time, like me. He eats all of the time, like me. He seems to meow, like me, but he does what dad calls crying. Colby (our sister) seems to like to sniff the little guy and lick his face. I guess that is better than what she normally does to me!!!

Well, that is it for now. I'll update you all later, time to snooze...

Friend of Mice

These little paws have to stretch out as I have not written for a while. I guess it was because I was a little nervous about telling you all this...but...I'm a friend of mice...yes, a F.O.M. for short. I know I need to turn in my feline card now as now cat can really be a friend of a mouse, so it is with great sadness that I do so. I am sure that there are others out there, ashamed of having a mouse friend, and we can all start F.O.M. anonymous if you want.

I guess I should explain. You see, Mom and Dad gave me mice to play with when I was little, and I loved them!! I played with them and they were my pals. They kept on giving them to me, so they were feeding this problem I have. I mean what am I to do when a real mouse stops by, I make friends and play! But both Mom and Dad were ashamed of me when Rodney (that was his name) hid at my feet when they were attacking him. I mean seriously, they want me to play with mice, but not make friends? Next thing you know Rodney is gone, outside, and his little lifeless body was left out in the cold. To top it all off, Colby, my sister wrote about it in her DIARY! The shame I felt was horrible.

WOW, do I feel better now that I got that off my fur. Lots to catch you all up on, first, my Patriots are in the Playoffs!!! That was a good thing; dad was worried for a while. Second, the mom and dad re-did my room!!! It have bears all over it called pooh, and there are the softest places to sleep, I don't know why the keep calling the "the baby" as in "Brady get off the baby's changing table", or "Get out of the baby's crib". I'm 2 not a baby!

Well, my tiny little fingers are tired, so I will say good bye. Drop me a line if you want to join F.O.M. Anonymous.

Down in the dumps

Well, I've been a little, well actually a whole bunch, down in the dumps these last few days. The Patriots are not looking all that good at 2-2 and my dad's fantasy team (whatever that is) is 1-3. So I am not a happy kitty. We did beat Pitts though, so I was happy about that.

But the real reason I am sad is...after all of my trying, and all of my planning, and all of the help I have gotten, I still cannot catch a mouse. They might take my license to be a cat away from me! I cannot do it! I mean I can get the one that is hanging from the bed room door, sure, but not the one that runs around in the house. Dad said "Our house does not have any mice Brady, don't worry about it pal" but I am worried! I am a disgrace to the cat community! Oh no!

Well, now that that is off my chest, I thought I would get onto some good news! I have been really really really enjoying the new couch mom and dad got for me! I mean sure they sit on it to, but it is mine!!! I've been napping all of the time!! (That has nothing to do with why I cannot catch a mouse!) I love it!!! Thanks Mom and Dad!!!

Also, I turned 24 years old (2 human years) this past week. Mom and Dad sang to me and made Colby be nice to me! I love them soooo much!

Ok, well, I guess I should go try to figure out how to say my whiskers and catch a darn mouse. I tried everything Lyle said but no luck! Well, I'll keep you posted!

Wow, I Moewed the diary of the day!!!

First, Mom and Dad are back from their trip. I missed them soooo much. I have even taken to meowing more now to make sure they know that I missed them. Colby is also back, and I guessed she really really missed me, because she's been licking my back all of the time (sometimes I look like I have spiked my fur or something).

Second, while Mom and Dad were gone, I won a great honor, I was diary of the day!!! Thanks to all of my new pals, and I hope I do not disappoint, this is a lot of pressure on a kitty, but I think I can stay interesting.

Third, Mom and Dad have a new couch, and I cannot get enough of it!!! It is soooooo comfy. I can just sit up on the back (which is soft as a pillow) and look out the window! It was the best gift they could have gotten for me, it was a nice gift to make up for leaving me alone.

On to my better mouse trap...The cheese on the head did not work, but I think I figured out something that I can do! Mom and Dad have this stuffed toy that looks like a girl mouse, I think I heard mom call it Minnie or something, well, anyway, I'm going to put this mouse just inside the door to my room, and then hide against the wall. Then once Mr. Mouse walks in to see Minnie, boom, I've got him!!! I know there is at lease one Mouse around as Lyle saw one in the photo I posted.

Well, I have to go lounge on the couch. Meow at you later!!

It is my Kindom and mine alone...

Well, the time has come, and I have grown up. My mom and dad are going to Rhode Island to visit with dad's mom and dad, and then to some place in Maine to see mom's mom. That sounds really confusing. Well, were does that leave me you may ask? Well, I'll tell ya, alone in my kingdom. (Well, I guess someone is coming over to feed me and feed Ickie, but I'll be without Colby for a week!)

See Colby is so little that she needs a baby sitter. HA. I'm going to "rule the roost!" and have fun. But seriously, I'll miss mom and dad. I'll also miss Colby.

Well, onto more great news!!! Dad told me that when they are in Rhode Island they are going to the Patriots game to see my favorite QB Tom Brady beat the Raiders. I asked if they could hold up some sign that said "Brady you are the best purrinator ever!!!" but he said no signs in their section :(

Well, I guess this will be the last entry for me for a little bit (Hi Little Bit hope you liked your trip to Nashville) so keep it real and vote for LYLE (when are the elections anyway???)

Oh, I almost forgot, Cheese turns green and smells funny if you wear it on your head for a week. I don’t know how those Packer people can do it! Oh well, I have another plan to catch some mice, and this time, I’m going to do it. After this next week of planning, I’ll fill you all in!!!

Well, by for a little while.

Cheese Hat

Howdy everyone. How are you all doing? I'm still wearing my cheese hat, but so far no mice. They are being really really sneaky. I thought that it would be really easy, and they would just jump into my mouth. But alas, no. I am still trying to figure out where they are. I have asked my dad to post a surveillance photo mom took of me with my hat while I was on the hunt, hopefully it is up now. If anyone can help me out here, please do. I want a mouse sooooooo bad.

On to other topics, firstly I entertained some guests in my Kingdom the other night. It was fun, I guess, they all seemed more interested in Colby for some reason, I just don't get it. Maybe because she is still a baby.

I have a complaint though, and it is a delecate one. I have to ask my dad that the next time I am coughing up a fur ball, leave me alone, I am not going to die, and I am not going to stop breathing. DON'T worry. I could not get a moments rest on Saturday night with him chasing me around the house thinking I was dead. Now please if I was dead would he have had to chase me? Nope. Well, sorry dad but I'm almost 2 now and you don't have to worry so much.

What was that? I think I hear something behind me...gotta go, it might be a mouse.

Don't Worry, I'm still a Patriots fan

I decided to try something out. I saw my pal Lyle wearing a brick of cheese on his head the other day, and I though...That might help me catch some sneaky mice, maybe they will even just run right up into my mouth...mmmmm...mice.

Well, we will see how this works today, I'll keep you posted!

By the way, eveyone should go check out my pal Lyle's page because he lost our bet!!! He's a Patriots fan now!!! Thank you Lyle!!!!

Gotta go set my mouse trap:)

Where have I been???

Well, it's been over a month, and I have not been able to get Dad to log into the computer and let my little paws write a diary entry. I'd guess that he's been busy with work and other things like the "baby" he keeps telling me is on the way. I don't know what he really means, but I do know that there has been a lot of talk about turning my room into the "baby room". Why? I am King and I never issued this decree.

Well, I guess I cannot complain, I still get my food, and Dad has taken over the duties of cleaning my bathroom box. I still play with Mom each morning and that is really really fun.

Other than that, nothing much new going on in the kingdom, the humans have stopped stepping on me and also, I am able to sleep on the bed with no kicking, so they are listening to me!!!

On to the important stuff, football season is here, and my friend Lyle is a fan of the Green Bay Packers. I am a fan of the WORLD CHAMPION NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS. And guess what? The Packers and the Patriots are playing this Friday night!!!! Lyle keeps telling me that this Brett Favre guy is better than Tom BRADY (He's named after me of course) but I don't think so. This Friday we will know!!!

Last, but not least, I have been receiving loads and loads of e-mail (OK, well, only one message from Lyle, but who's counting), asking me why one of my nicknames is Eraserhead. Well, the story goes that I would run around and rub my head on the areas of the house where Colby had marked, and I'd erase her sent claiming that area once again for me!!! Hence the name...

I'll catch you all later, time for a nap!

New Pictures and some other issues

I know, I know, it's been a long time, well, the king is very busy these days. I have some new photo's including one of me and my new Lyle for Congress button. Looks good doesn't it. Thanks Lyle for sending it out to me!!!

There is a serious matter that I need to address. When I am sleeping on Dad's legs at night, sometimes he kicks me off the bed. Now, I don't mean to complain, but, I am never kicking him off the bed. Why can't he just deal with me being on his legs just like I deal with his lumpy body being under me. Sure I'd rather have a soft pillow or something, but I deal with it. He should to.

Now that that is settled, football season is almost here and the QB named after me (Tom Brady, or maybe I was named after him...can't be he must have been named after me!) is about to start playing again. I say "CATS for the PATS!"

Well, off to take a nap. Meow at you all later!
