Mommy Wears Me Out

I just love those few Sundays when Mommy stays home all day. She says this winter has been really hard and so she's had a few days she's had to stay home from work.

When Mommy's home, she's really busy. I have such a hard time keeping up with her! First she's at one end of the mobile home, doing things in her bedroom, then she goes all the way to the other end and does things in the kitchen, then she might take things from the kitchen and bring them to the laundry machines and BOY it's a tough job to keep up with her! I'm going here and there and practically catching my own tail as I race to keep up with her.

Sister secretary came again today, like she does almost every Sunday. Today she had a new toy with her: a camera. It looks like the same camera she's pointed at me before, but apparently its not because she and Mommy were talking about and checking it out. Sister brought it over special to take new pictures of me. She is quite positive that I've gotten even larger since last week.

I think she's seeing things. After all, I heard her say she's having a hard time getting used to her new glasses that she keeps on her nose. She said something about them being "strong". Mommy thinks that the colder it's gotten, the more fur I seem to have and it just sticks out.

I don't know what the fuss is about my fur. It's mine. I've never had any other type of fur, so what's the big deal? Just because I've got a bushy mane and fur between my toes and a tail that most cats would fight over.... I just happen to have a lot of fur. Doesn't every cat have this problem?

Sister got pictures of me sleeping in the babies' pick 'n play and just before she left, she found me on the fridge. She left some of the pictures she took with Mommy and they put them on my page. Mommy says I am a beautiful boy and I am her tiger lily. She says I'm so special.

Mommy and Sister were watching a movie and Sister's lap was just there. She didn't have anything in her lap, which seemed like quite a waste of prime real estate. I hurried over to the couch, pulled myself up, and plopped right next to her leg. I put one paw on her leg, stretched my tail out so far that I could touch Mommy, and I got comfortable. I purred and looked at Sister. I wish she'd come over more often. She makes such a fuss over me and gives me lots of attention.

However, this afternoon I really had to nap. Mommy wore me out. I couldn't stay awake any longer so I ended up missing most of Sister's visit. What a shame!
