Our Pizza Party

Milo and I were just remembering the day that we had our very own pizza party. Mommy and Daddy ordered in pizza that night and as usual they didn't let us have any. I constantly make it known I want some but they always refuse. Well that night was different, I had been scheming and waiting for this opportunity for weeks. Mommy put the empty pizza box way up high on the counter where she thought I couldn't get it. Oh silly Mommy, that was her first mistake. She didn't know that I had been practicing jumping up on the counter when she was away at work. Her second mistake was thinking that the box was empty. If she looked closely she would have seen hundreds of tiny little pepperoni morsels left in the bottom of the box! So when the coast was clear in the middle of the night, I jumped up on the counter and threw it on the floor. I invited Milo to join in, at first he said he didn't think we were allowed to do that, and that Mommy and Daddy would be upset with us, but eventually I convinced him. We ate until that box was clean, it was so yummy! However the next day we were found out, Mommy saw the box on the floor (give me a break, I just learned to jump on the counter, learning to put things back is next...). The funny thing is Mommy didn't seem upset, she just smiled at us and said that we would get what was coming to us...but I'm not sure what that meant. The only downer to that wonderful day is that both Milo and I didn't feel well later on, but I don't know why. Our tummies hurt and we had to go use the box a few times, and I think Milo puked (he is such a wuss!) Mommy also had to wipe our bums.... how humiliating. Anyways I am planning our next mission, but I am afraid that it will be much harder to pull off since Mommy and Daddy are onto me. I don't have the same element of surprise anymore but I am up for the challenge.

Halloween Party

I just love it when Mommy and Daddy have people over for parties. People = food & attention! I partied the night away, finding crumbs, jumping on people's laps and entertaining every one with my party tricks. My Mommy says I'm a shameless flirt. I say "when you've got, flaunt it!"

Another trip to the vet

Wow! We got to go the the vet's last night, what fun! The vet is so nice she gives us treats and cat nip pillows .....mmmmmm. It is such an interesting place I get to run around the office and explore. Milo, however was not into it. He just hid in the carrier and hissed at the vet, I don't know what his problem was. I was so much fun, I wonder when we get to go back again. I did here Mommy talk to the vet about a n-e-u-t-e-r..... I don't know what that is all about, but I guess we'll see!

I am a new man!

Well it happened. Mommy took us in for the neuter thing I've been hearing about. Afterwards I felt kind of strange, something is not quite the same.... All I can say is that life is better at home, I don't care how many catnip pillows they gave me. I need to be free to race around the house, sit in the sink or to knock over glasses of water when I feel the urge! Mommy said no more vet for a while. That is fine with me, it was starting to get old anyways...

Treats!

Treats for me too! I'm glad somebody left me a bunch because my brother Milo wasn't sharing....Being the cat breed of the week has it's benefits!

A Little Adventure

This weekend I went on a little adventure. I was checking out the bedroom as per usual, jumping on all the furniture seeing if there were any water glasses to knock over, when I decided I wanted to do a superman jump from the top of the dresser to the laundry basket. The only problem was that this was a new laundry basket, made of fabric. I crashed through the lid, into one of the bins where I got wedged at the bottom. I could hear Mommy laughing uncontrollably, nice. When she composed herself, she came and opened the lid and got me out. She said I looked like a turtle stuck on its back. I don't think I liked her tone when she said this. I'm not a THINKer, I'm a DOer. If I actually thought about things before I did them, I wouldn't even attempt about 95% of my daily activities. Come on Mommy, where's your sense of adventure? Throw caution to the wind and go for it!

The Game! Tag, You're It...

I've been Tagged....by my pal Teddy!
First things first! The rules:
Each player starts with seven random facts about themselves. Cats who are tagged need to write on
their own diary about the seven things and the rules. You need to choose seven cats to tag and list their
names. Don’t forget to leave them an e-mail telling them that they have been tagged and to read your diary.

1. I am obsessed with water, I think about it all day long. I wonder when the tap will be turned on or if anyone will leave a water glass unattended.
2. I didn't get the nickname "the bad one" for no good reason. I worked hard to get that reputation and it is well deserved.
3. I am an attention hog, particularily in the morning. I will follow my Mommy around crying for attention and reaching out to her with my paw (what a sucker, she falls for the cute stuff every time!)
4. I like to knead my Mommy's face, even though she is not always appreciative of this gesture of love
5. No matter how many times Mommy sprays me with water, I will not stop jumping on the kitchen counter, it's a matter of principle.
6. I firmly believe that "water glass tipping" should become an official olympic sport.
7. I can run faster than Mommy. I have displayed this skill many times after snatching food off her dinner plate.

I tag the following 7 catsters:
Fidel
LaBichita
Kitty
Cintia
Scooter
Simba
Sammy

My Mommy went away!

I can't believe it.... my Mommy went away for a WHOLE week and left me all alone. Well not exactly all alone, Daddy was there to take care of us, but honestly what good is he? I need my Mommy. She SAID it was for work, she SAID it was a conference and she SAID she had to go, but that doesn't really cut it for me. Sure we were fed and our box was cleaned out and we got our morning shower sessions and evening pets, but that can't replace Mommy. I was going to be all aloof with her when she got back just to teach her a lesson but in the end I couldn't pull it off.... I just missed her so much. And you know what the best part was? She got sick the next week. This may not sound good to you, but think about it. I had my Mommy home all week with me, sleeping in and lying on the couch all day. What more could I want. I got to snuggle, knead and sleep with her all week during the day (my sleepy time), all day long!

A Poem of Water

Here's a little poem I wrote for my friend Po. Any of you water lovers out there will be able to relate I'm sure...

I like water from the tap
even more than Mommy's lap

I like water in a glass
knock it down and run real fast!

I get close and will get sprayed
but this does not keep me away

I like water in the sink
it's the greatest don't you think?

I like water I can sprinkle
even water where Mom tinkles

knock a glass down, watch it splash
it's even better with a SMASH!

I'm Cat of the Week!

I woke up this morning and it was just like any other day. I got Mommy to sign into Catster, and there I was on the Home Page... I was COTW. I rubbed my eyes, I couldn't believe it, but there I was! So I checked my account, OMC, the p-mails, stars, rosettes and friend requests were pouring in. All this attention, my head is spinning.... I am in my glory! I am so excited and want to thank all the kitties out there that are supporting me. I guess now I am "All dressed up and HAVE somewhere to go!"
