that little brat...

the poop machine has learned that i'll get put in the bathroom for time out if she tattles on me. so not fair! just today she brought mom into the kitchen quietly while i was helping myself to some left over dinner that was cooling before going into the fridge. i figured they saved me some, but the little brat didnt agree and tattled on me to mom! i got shoved into the bathroom yet again. grr.

dont get me wrong, the bathroom's a fun place to be when the door is open, or with mom, but it sure gets lonely when i'm in there alone.

i believe i must devise a plan to rid myself of the little tattle...

till the next rediscovery,

Ooh basket!

i have rediscovered my toybasket. in our last house, we had this basket that i would crawl into every so often. our roommate made me a little bed for the basket, but i didnt like it too much. i chewed a hole it and it didnt taste that great, so i stopped sleeping in the basket.

mom and the boyfriend kept the bed, and the basket, and put my toys in it. i go digging in my basket whenever i get bored with the toys i pulled out previously. besides, its fun to watch mom and the boyfriend play pick up after me *purrs*

anyway, every so often, i dig a little too deep in the basket and knock it off the speaker (its up high so the puppy cant get in it). i did this one day while the puppy was tucked away in the bathroom for a nap. after pulling out every toy and finding them all mundane and boring, i discovered there was a bed in the bottom of the basket. "how novel!" i thought to myself. so, i climbed right on in, and it was lovely.

i stayed there till mom bugged me enough with laughing at me and taking pictures (i also ended up accidentally rolling the basket upright, so i was then in the middle. mom moved me and the basket up onto the speaker).

i have rediscovered the basket and bed. for the past couple days, i just push my toys aside and snooze in my new favorite sleeping place. i even slept there last night instead of with mom and the boyfriend. why move when you got a good thing going?

i wonder where my next rediscovery will be?

Toilet inspector, at your service

last night mom and the boyfriend had to replace the floater thingy inside the toilet. they got the old one out and started putting in the new one when i realised something was going on. it is my duty to inspect all repairs to make sure they've been done right. so from that point on, i was right there, following the directions and making sure each step was followed correctly.

i had to crawl over the boyfriend just to see some parts, but it was worth it. i had to make sure it was done right.

after the final part was installed, the toilet was flushed and i made sure it stopped at the right time. it sure did! inspection complete, mom and the boyfriend pass.

after the toilet inspection, i went back to sleeping and avoiding the puppy.

down to one

whew! one of the pups left. now just one more to go.... *plots how to rid herself of the little fuzzball*

mom and the boyfriend think it will be a good idea to litter box train the poop machine. in my litter box! luckily right now the puppy's contained in a bathroom with her own litter box. its bad enough i have to share a house with the bugger, but to share my private bathroom? its one of those nice ones that cleans itsself. the pup's gonna stink it all up and make a big mess. i just wont have it!

speaking of sharing with the monster... mom and the boyfriend brought home this awesome bed that has a pocket to burrow in. its so soft and cozy i fell in love with it right away... right now, the puppy's on it! they gave it to her! she cant even hold her pee for more than a hour. there is no way she's keeping it! luckily mom and the boyfriend only give it to her when they are monitoring her, but still... my bed!

my house!
MINE! *grrrrr*
at least watching mom and the boyfriend chase around the little thing is very amuzing. i wish i knew how to work a video camera...

till next time (when hopefully the puppy's gone :-P)

what what WHAT??

mom and the boyfriend have been talking about getting a puppy for months now. well, yesterday, they come home with not one little furball, but two!!! she reassures me that only one is staying with us (the other is supposed to go to her mom), but i dont know if i believe her. why cant they both go? they smell funny, look funny, and frankly, i dont think they theyre that funny! mom and the boyfriend spend lots of time playing with them and laughing. they think they're funny. i think they are anything but. *grumbles* little furballs... hogging my bathroom! so what if i dont spend that much time in there. i like to go in the shower, but now i cant cause there is this gate thingy in the way. *grumbles more* ...my $^%#^ bathroom! my house! mine mine mine!!!

mom and the boyfriend dont let them out for very long, so luckily the rest of my house is mine. i hope it lasts

*grumbles*
mine..... :-(

rediscovering chairs

we have three chairs in the office. mom's desk chair, the boyfriend's desk chair, and i assume the last one is for me. mom was in MY chair tonight. using this machine that makes some weird noise and sucks in string (ooh string!) anyway. she was hogging my chair, so i had to find a way to get her out of it. she left just enough room behind her back for me to fit. so i wedged myself in there and started pushing her out by rubbing back and forth and licking her elbows. the butthead, all she did was look at me and laugh. gah! my chair, mine!

she finally got up later, but i didnt want my chair anymore... the bean bag suits me just fine.

i suppose i'll just have to rediscover my chair another night.

Ankle Biting, Staring, and OCD

mom and her boyfriend like to play tag with me. i really like playing too. i'll often start the game by attacking their ankle as they walk by. then they'll touch me and run. i have to run after them and tag em back. its loads of fun!

a couple days ago, i decided i'd bite the boyfriend's ankle instead of just attacking it. it didnt go over real well, so i tried mom when she got home. she just laughed at me :-(

a couple diary entries ago i mentioned that they caught on to my plan to stare at mom every night to confuse her. i took a night off, but then after thinking it over, i really liked freaking mom out, so i'm back at it. every night at 9:00pm, i sit about a foot away from her while she hogs the computer and stare at her. unblinking, menacing stare. i just love freaking her out! she whines to her boyfriend to make me stop. when he moves me, i just stare from my new position. its so much fun >..<

i used to stare all the time. everyone agreed that i was the creepiest kitty around (i dont need no stinking costume!). mom used to say i looked like i was planning their death when i stared at them. maybe i was.... ;-) mwahahahaha! now that i've rediscovered staring, i forgot how much fun it was. i'm going to do this for a long time i'm sure.

now, for the OCD part of my post. i started a group for kitties and doggies with OCD like behaviors (or other "psychotic" things). i have been diagnosed with PICA, which has OCD aspects. i basically obsessively and compulsively eat things that are inedible. my personal favorite is cotton. mom's pillows and blankets are delish! she's tried everything she can think of to stop me, but i just cant help myself. from what i understand, its like how humans love chocolate, but i cant have any cause it will kill me!

anyway, till the next rediscovery,
Ed

Mmmm Leather

the boyfriend has such a nice chair. no wonder he's always sitting in it. i'm so glad when he leaves for work, cause then i get to sleep in it for hours. its plush leather, with extra cushioning. not like mom's chair which is fake leather and not very plush.

i think what makes this chair so wonderful is that he hates it when i steal his chair. thats the icing on the catnip cake. when he kicks me off, he always looks so annoyed, but i know he's faking it. who couldnt resist me? he totally loves me :-)

well, that was my latest rediscovery,
till next time,
Ed
