Dad wrote this parody for me. Funny or insulting?

(To the tune of "My Love" by Paul McCartney)

And when I go away
I know he'll sleep all day
He's my cat, it's understood
In his chair - it's my cat
And my cat saws some wood!
Woah-woah-woah-woah
Woah-woah-woah-woah
My cat snores real good

And when I'm in my chair
Climbs in my lap with care
It's my cat, it's understood
Hangs off everywhere - it's my cat
And my cat saws some wood!
Woah-woah-woah-woah
Woah-woah-woah-woah
My cat snores real good

I love oh woah my cat
Even his loud zzzzzz's can make me happy
Oh I love oh woah my cat
Only my cat's snores sound good to me

Don't ever ask him why
He just won't reply
He's my cat, it's understood
Cat hair everywhere - he's my cat
And my cat saws some wood!
Woah-woah-woah-woah
Woah-woah-woah-woah
My cat snores real good

I love oh woah my cat
Even his loud zzzzzz's can make me happy
Oh I love oh woah my cat
Only my cat's snores sound good to me

Meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow...
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

Gotcha Day +8

Eight years ago today I met my dad for the first time. I walked into my forever home for the first time. I felt loved for the first time. Dad says I'm the best thing that ever happened to him in his life and he loves me more than the whole world put together. I feel the same way about you dad. Happy Gotcha Day #8!

Twas The Night Before Catsmas

by: Aedan Murphy Mitchell

Twas the night before Catsmas
And I'm looking 'round
For a big bearded human
To come into town

I heard he brings presents
Treats, toys and 'nip
For all the good kitties
He makes his grand trip

As I lay my head down
Upon the warm rug
I dream of live mousies
Or a big flying bug

But I am a lucky kitty
I have more than most
Warmth, food and comfort
Is what I can boast

So please my dear Santa
If only one gift you give
Grant each homeless cat a home
And a chance to love and live

I'm 8 Today!

Wow I can't believe I'm 8 years old! Dad says I'm still a little baby but I'm pretty sure that 8 is big boy territory! I asked dad if I could have a special dinner tonight and he said yes! Now to decide what I want... hmmm... I think maybe a turkey dinner. Dinner is such a long way off. I know I'll be dreaming about eating turkey all day today.


A Schoolhouse Rock video about the number 8... dad said this was around when he was 8 (I think 100 years ago):

I'm Much Better and I'm a DDP!!!

Thank you everycat for your kind words and rosies. I am certain it was your purrs that helped me get better so quickly! Cats are the most awesome creatures in the universe!

Dad says he knows I'm all better now because I'm back to my fresh ways. Fresh??!! Fresh??!! It's called "playful" dad. Geesh, consult a dictionary once in a while...

Also, thank you Catster for naming me a Daily Diary Pick today! I feel very honored!

Off to wake up dad an hour before his alarm goes off. Playfully, of course!

I'm Sick :(

Ever since I got back from being boarded at the v*t I have had the runs and have been throwing up. I am always grooming my butt which explains the throw up part (I yacked a ginormous hairball this morning). But dad is so worried. He brought me back to the v*t on Thursday and they said it was stress related colitis. But dad is getting sick himself watching me suffer. If I get any worse he's going to bring me into the emergency room. I purray that doesn't happen. I've been there once and did not like it. I will keep you all updated. Keep me in your thoughts.

Dad's Back From Vacation

Well it hasn't been a good week and a half for Aedan. First, we had a snowstorm that knocked out power. Second, dad went on vacation for a week. While normally it isn't so bad when dad goes away - I have Miss Danielle come in to watch after me - because of the power outage, I had to go to my v*t to stay for a week! I HATE this!!! They put me in a small cage and I felt like a lion in a zoo. Pacing, pacing, pacing. Then every once in a while a dumb human would come along and say, "Oh look at the cute kitty cat!" HISSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!

But I'm back safe and sound in my home. Dad told me some about his vacation. He said that he went to this house in Key West that ONLY CATS LIVE IN! He called it the, um... Hemingway House. He says that there are 44 cats and they have a huge yard and lots of places to nap in the shade. Or they can go inside and snooze. I think this is where I want to go on my vacation!

Her-a-cane Irene

My dad was talking about this lady named Irene today. He called her a "her-a-cane" which I think is a bad word. He says wherever this lady goes, a lot of wind, rain and destruction follow and she is very dangerous.

So be safe this weekend my East Coast furriends. Stay indoors and make sure your pawrents stock up on enough food and treats. I'm really scared because dad says Irene's eye is going to pass right over us. I don't want this bad lady looking in on me while I nap!!!

Friday was bad...

We had really bad flash flooding on Friday. Our driveway was like a raging river. Debris was everywhere - trees, wood, huge boulders... and the mud! There were mudslides and rock-slides. Almost all the roads were closed around here. It took dad over 3 hours to get home from work when it normally only takes him 20 minutes.

The worst part was that it knocked out our internet. I can't read my Catster mail! Luckily dad is a tech guy and he connected his cell phone to my laptop so I can type this update.

What a crazy storm!

Dad is away this week

Dad kept saying he had to go away but I just figured he was going to the store or work and would be back soon. That was Sunday. Miss Danielle has been stopping by to check on me and to feed me. I don't let her touch me but I come out to say hi and let her know I'm OK. I keep meowing to her to tell dad to come home but I don't think she understands my meows like dad does.

I miss my dad. I keep looking out the window hoping he'll be pulling into the driveway. Maybe today... *sigh*

Come home papa! :'(
