You know how some days you feel like you should just have stayed in bed? Well, today is one of those days.
I finally convinced Meowmy to let me go outside early this morning. Eureka! I have some free time to do what I want. So, I thought that I would do the manly thing that every guy enjoys and do a little hunting. So I explored around the yard, the field next to us and under the pine trees.
Finally! I saw my chance. I watched, I waited, I pounced and I had my trophy! I knew that Meowmy would be so proud of me because after all it was just an ole sparrow and Meowmy doens't like all of the sparrows that are around. I puffed out my chest and proudly came trotting around the corner of the house. I brought my game inside the garage for everybody to see and I was all set to hear the oohs and aahs.
Then it happened! Like a black steak out of no where! Yep! The dumb dog came charging into the garage and do you know what she did? She stuck her big nose right in my face, grabbed the bird and took off like a shot! I just stood there and blinked. I could not believe what had just happened. Meowmy couldn't even get the bird away from the dog because she would just run with it. Well of all the nerve. My feelings and my pride were just crushed.
Meowmy told me not to feel bad; that she was still proud of me. She said that I should just come back in the house and have a snack. Well, now that is more like it! I am always up for a snack.
Ahhh, this is better than hunting anyhow. My tummy is full and I am feeling good! I think that I will just take my position on the top perch of the cat tree and lay under the fan. Heck, I can watch those birds from the window and I think that I will get a little shut-eye while I'm up here too. This day isn't looking so bad after all. I do not have to prove myself anyhow. Everybody knows that I am "da man"! *Grins and closes his eyes*
(Sweet dreams Tuffy)
Well, Meowmy has finally given me a little well-deserved puter time today and she is typing while I dictate.
First off, I would like to invite everyone to see my latest picture of my most pawtastic new kitty bed that my sweet wife, Mojo sent for my birthday. Oh, I can't begin to tell everyone how truly excited I was to actually receive a package in the mail with my very own name on it. The grand-daughters were here at the time that we found the package on the porch; so they insisted on opening it for me. First off, there was a lovely card in a pink envelope with my name on that too. I could see the disappointment in the little girls' eyes when they saw that the gift was for me and not for them, but hey! It was MY birthday!
It isn't every day that a guy turns 10, 'ya know.
Well, I just had to gasp outloud when I saw what was inside the box. The most beautiful kitty bed that I have ever seen. It has such bright and cheerful colors and even a yellow bow. The back side is a wonderful, pale yellow color that is ever so delightful. Well, let me tell you that I will definitely have sweet dreams of my lovely Mojo when I sleep on that pillow.
Meowmy's camera had dead batteries when the package came; she had to get new ones. So today, she got the camera up and working again and she wanted to get a picture of me with my new bed but I am busy resting on the top shelf of the cat tree right now. Meowmy took a picture of my lovely bed so that I can share it with everyone and I will post with it later. I simply do not have enough hours in the day to do everything that needs to be done.
You see, I feel that it is my catly duty to man the top shelf of the cat tree during the day. It is the highest look-out post in the house and from there I can catch a nice breeze in front of the window while I watch the traffic go by and I can also have a bird's eye view of the front yard. So if there are any intruders, I am right on top of things.
I can also get a lovely whiff of the lilacs outside the window and watch the bird's in the tree. So for now, I am on look-out duty but maybe when I take my afternoon nap or curl up on the couch for the evening, I might let Meowmy snap a picture of me on my new bed. I am sure that she will post it on my page as soon as she can sneak up on me and get a good picture. I really don't mind having my picture taken but I always run when I see the camera just to frustrate Meowmy. I just know that she will take some goofy looking photo of me with my mouth hanging open and snoring or something silly.
Well, I can see that Meowmy is about ready to cut me off for now (something about having to fix lunch for Dad); so I will have to quit meowing now and get back to my watch-cat duties.
"What's that? Huh? Oh, I did NOT have my eyes closed Pickles! You are just jealous that I have the top shelf today. And don't you dare try to sneak a nap on my beautiful new bed just because I am on duty right now. That bed is for me only and I have instructed Meowmy to keep everyone away from it.
*Thinks to himself, you know, I wonder if I can really trust Meowmy with my new bed. She said that it is soooo soft that she is tempted to use it for a pillow for herself* Hmmpppttt! A guy can't keep anything to himself around here.
As soon as my watch duty is over with for the day, I am soooo going to sneak a nap on my new bed. Ahhhh!!
Watch for pictures soon everypurr!
And thank you so much for the most lovely birthday gift that a guy could ever ask for, Mojo, my lovely wifey. I have the loveliest wife on Catster and now I have the bestest kitty bed too. Ahhh, life is good!
Well, guess what? Today started off like any other day. I had to go into the bedroom early this morning to see if the humans were ready to get up yet. It was 3:30 a.m. but they didn't seem very happy to see me. So I went and played for awhile and came back in about a half hour. Well, they still didn't seem too happy to see me but Meowmy got up and came grumbling down the hallway. Hey, what's up with this? She made me go into the basement and closed the door behind me. Well, that's gratitude for 'ya! Pffftttt!
Pretty soon, Dad got up and came into the basement to put some wood into the stove. Well now, here's my chance to run back upstairs and check to see if Meowmy is ready to get up now. Come on, lady, it's 5:30 a.m. already. The day is almost half over. Well, finally at 7:00 I was able to make her get out of bed and go into the bathroom to fill my feed dishes. It's about time!! Now that's more like it, ahhh! My tummy is full and now it is time for me to catch some shut-eye. Tee Hee!
I didn't get much sleep though. Meowmy went into the kitchen and started breakfast and how is a kitty supposed to sleep with the smell of bacon cooking? So I went into the kitchen to see if I could help out. Gee, it looks as if this is going to be a busy day for some reason. Oh yeah, I heard the humans talking about Easter dinner. So I guess that this must be Easter. Wonder if the Easter bunny brought me any goodies. Hmmm, think that I will go and look around for awhile and see if I can find any of those chocolate bunnies or colored eggs that I've heard them talk about.
Uh, oh! Here comes that big ole clumsy dog invading my world again. Guess that I'd better high-tail it for the basement just to be safe. Hey, wait a minute! What's this stuff? Seems the big ole dog has found some stuff that looks like grass only it is purple; she is scattering it all through the whole house. What's going on? I hear Meowmy coming and she seems a little perturbed and said something about the doggie having to go outside and stay outside. Hee Hee!
Oh, the doggie is motioning for me, yes, little ole me to come over to a certain spot in the family room. She seems to want me to sit next to this big pile of purple grass and try to look cute. She says that I should smile for the camera. OK, what is this dog up to? Can I really trust her? Well, I DO like having my picture taken; so I will pose for just one picture, or two. Now Meowmy is making the big dog go outside and she is shaking her head and muttering about all of this purple grass that is all over the house.
Gee, you don't suppose? Why are you looking at me like that, Meowmy? I didn't do it! Honest! Ooh, that dog is soooo gonna get it the next time that she comes in this house. I just knew that I couldn't trust her!!
You'd better be on guard the next time that you enter my domain, dog, because I'm gonna be waiting behind the basement door for you. And I just sharpened my claws. Hee Hee Hee!
(Smile purrty for the camera, she says. Sit next to this purrty purrple Easter grass and try to look cute, she says!) Pffffttttt!
*Switches tail and slinks into the basement with a look of revenge glinting in his eyes*
