The Checkster's Checks

Another year gone


December 30th 2008 6:42 pm   [link to this entry]

What are my resolutions? To stay out of trouble. to stop chasing mira so much. Ok, not really. I think i'm just jealous of her. I used to be mommy's numero uno and I used to sleep with her. But then that teenager of mine wanted me to sleep in her room and mommy let her take me. So now i'm seen as 'her' cat. Mira is mommy's cat. and i think Mira rubs it in far too much. ok, I know , i"m getting sidetracked. Ok, resolutions.....I will gaurd the house when Mommy goes into teh hospital for her tests and when she goes to work....I will make sure nione of the other kitties eat too much (hehe, i'll eat thiers and mine and that will keep them from eating too much). Ill ease up on my drinking habits from the glasses left by the furless ones. Yeah, that's my only new years resolotions. Oh wait, the biggest one of all!

I WILL MARRY MY Girlfriend Ravie! We will have our wedding this year and it will be so special for her. that is my biggest resolution ever!

Over and out,
The Checkster

DDP? Me? No way.....


November 29th 2008 1:12 pm   [link to this entry]

Hi all! I got DDP! *looks around* are you sure? Me, really? Wow, I am shocked. I would have figured that princess or that baby would have gotten it, mol. I'm cool now, mol. Ravie, where is my Ravie? I love my Ravie. She's such a pretty thing. We are engaged. Since all that has happened, we have had to put our wedding on hold but I'm sure she knows I think of her daily. I am so excited to be a ddp! This is fun! Thanks Catster! We love you!

adoptable you ask?


November 25th 2008 7:42 pm   [link to this entry]

Well, I want to ask too! What does that mean? Mommy won't tell me.....I smell something fishy here.....I don't know why it says adoption. I tried to ask mommy but she can't talk right now. I know the furless ones are pretty upset but not sure about what....surely they are not going to get rid of me. I don't know why they'd do that...I've been a family cat for four years and I am engaed to be married to Raven. Hey, mom, can we talk here? What is going on? Well, I am off to go talk to my mommy but I will keep you posted. As long as she doesn't say the v-e-t word or p-o-u-n-d word, I should be safe right? *bites claw*

Boy oh boy!

I am so glad I am the most laid back in the house! Midnite is always in troubel these days and Mira is busy babysitting the baby. I am just hanging out and behaving. I only steal an occasioanl chair and bite the toes of Jazzmine, the 12 year old once in a while, mol. I am the man of this house and I let that be known. Recently mira got to come out and play with us while Chosen was being de-fleaed and she's interesting to me. I follow her around and watch her. SHe's amusng. But as I am following her around, Midnite is following me around to make sure that I am not going to attack her daughter. They say cats dont remember thier babies but I know Midnite remembers giving birth to Mira. You can tell the way she stares me down! Mol. I wouldn't dare mess with the queen or the princess. Now, the prince is a different story. Me and Midnite dont' like him but we don't stay in the same part of the house anyways so it doesn't matter. If he was in my area, I'd show him I'm the king and he's the lowly prince but he's not so I can't so there ya go. Well, I am off to go to bed with my Jazzy for the night.

Where do they all go?


October 8th 2008 11:18 pm   [link to this entry]

As if it isnt bad enough that the little furless ones leave every day and leave me bored to tears, my mom is now leaving out the door every morning. I get a pat on the head and a good morning and then the house is quiet.

Oh sure, I have Midnite to play with you say! No, not reallY. she likes to attack this ice machine we hve and defy gravity by climbing to places tht are hard to get to just to say she can and show our humans that she defied them.

Think of her as the egyption queen statue. She doesn't like to play. she just watches and plots....and as of here lately, get into lots of trouble.

See, me, I'm the lowkey guy. I'm the only male cat around here. I have my yellow things to play with but if i can't parade around a human with them, what good do they really do me? I can only play so much door with Miracle and then I get bored.


Maybe my new girllfriend raven can sneak over to visit me because I'm not grounded! Hahah, take that, Midnite!


Well, i am off to go sleep on the furless one's bed. I gaurd her at night and that's my job. night!

Well, guess what???

I have one of those automatic water dishes, nothing fancy, just one of those from Target (mom's fave place) and it was letting a little bit of water out but there was still some in the back up. It looks like an upside down water cooler and I saw that I needed fresh water.

So guess what I did in front of my mom? I didn't know she was watching other wise I would have waited a bit.... I stood up on the water jug part and leaned it over to get the fresh water to come out!!

NOthing like a good self service I say!! That's my story for today!

I got tagged!


September 24th 2008 7:01 pm   [link to this entry]

My very bestest furiend the Tedster tagged me! I have to write 7 facts about me and then tag 7 other kitties! If you are tagged from me, just go to your diary and post the 7 things about you that no one knows and tag 7 other kitties!! It's so much fun!!!


1. I get a crooked ear when I am in trouble, it's my way of pretending to be innocent. It usually works. The cuteness factor gets me out of trouble a lot!

2. I have really long legs that I can stretch out in front of me, you can see this in my pics. I also like to curl them under me, mom loves it when i do that.

3. I love to nibble toes to get attention. (I think Miracle got it from me!) I will wake anyone up with biting thier toes!! I will sometimes bite toes in broad daylight if they don't give me the attention I need.

4. I love to play with yellow things. A lot. a yellow dish glove is somethingI wil carry around like a mom carrying baby kittens around. I carry it all proud like. I also carry my bingo ball in my mouth too!!

5. I am best friends with The Tedster! His family is so pawsome! He has a good mommy that loves him and is great friends with my mommy!


6. I like to lay on my oldest furless one's bed at night and 'protect' her. If her mommy comes in to move me off the bed, I will growl. I mainly sleep by her head. She's my property. She' s a pretty cool 12 year old that I love to protect!!


7. No matter where I'm at in the house, if I hear someone in the kitchen opening a can or the fridge, I come running!!!

Today my rocket scientist mom made a discovery!!! I love yellow!
It happened like this: my mom was in the dining room with the furless ones and I opened up the cabinet under the kitchen sink. Well, ok, i'll confess, I didn't open it....Midnite did.

She's been trying to get in trouble to get attention but that is a whole other story....

Ok, so I got under the kitchen sink and I pulled out this yellow dish glove. Mommy was going to yell at me but instead she just stopped and stared....and took pictures. I'm not sure what that was all about but she watched me.

So then I pick up this glove and start carrying it everywhere! So Midnite sees me having fun with it and tries to take it but I ran with it like it was a fish or something. IT"S MINE, I FOUND IT FAIR AND SQUARE!!!

But you ask what this has to do with mommy's discovery and theory?? Well, my bingo balls that I play with are yellow. Only the yellow ones will work. Mommy has never understood why until now.

I only play with yellow rubber bands too. Yellow things are my passion. You can't blame a guy for being passionate about yellow. I think it is the coolest color. Watch out yellow canaries, if i ever make it outside or to CatVegas, i'm coming for you!!!

Over and out
the yellow lover Checkers

ooopps I did it again and I'm smarter than a 5th grader too!


September 20th 2008 9:27 pm   [link to this entry]

Today I waited by my side of the DOOR so that Mira and I could play door like we always do. I sat there patiently every few hours waiting on her slow self! But guesss what? She didn't come to play door! How dare she? She stood me up! It's bad enough Midnite and I are fighting all the time! You'd think I could at least look forward to playing DOOR!
Oh, I love my routines on a daily basis and I just don't know what to do without being able to play door! i mean, the furless little ones love to watch us play it at dinner time and its fun and it gets me away from Midnite and.... Augh, why do these things happen?! I mean, I'm a good cat, I sleep with the oldest furless everynight so my mom doesn't have to worry and you'd think she would let Miss Superstar pants whatever her name is come to the door so i can play at least one game wiht her! But no!

So you know what I did? I made sure my mom's sister was in the kitchen (she's human too and about the same age as my mom) and I made sure she was looking right at me. Well, then I looked at her once more to make sure I still had her attention and I TIPPED my food over! Yup, folks, I know , i know, it was a bit of a hissy fit but i Had to!


I wasn't getting to play door so I had to find some form of entertainment, right? i mean, come on... well, so the story goes like this...she thought it was just coincidence that I looked at her and did that...

So when she came back in there and this time with my mom and her watching, I made it a point to meow and make them both look at me....
well, then I did it again. My mom walked over to pick it up and I ended up knocking it over once more..

Now, people say humans are smarter than animals but you'd have to convince me becuase I don't think they quite got the message....
Sooooooooooooooooooooooooo


Yup, you guessed it. Ooops, I did it again and this time I looked directly at mom, made my tail twitch angrily, and I sat up , lifted up my paw like i Was going to bath as you can see in one of my pics and there I went...I knocked the food out yet again.

I don't know why my mom and aunt were so suprised that I did this.. I am a very smart boy. But guess what...the best news of all??????

Miracle did come out to play after that! Who says cats are not smart? I'll take on dogs, humans, 5th graders.....I am smarter than them all!!

My mommy is furious and emailed this person...she wasn't- very nice at all


September 19th 2008 6:28 pm   [link to this entry]

This was cross posted in another group. The lady's cat was beaten to death by her jealous boyfriend. The link to this article is a post by a New York post reporter who thinks the cat deserved what it got.
http://www.nypost.com/seven/09182008/news/columnists/felon ious_ball_of_fur_deserved_every_blo_129691.htm

The lady's email address is in this article and when you read this article, it will make your blood pressure rise. I am asking you all to respond to her email with your thoughts and reactions to this article. She even starts off the article calling people who care about animal rights 'nutty'.

I am so mad I am asking you all to respond to her and share your 'nutty' thoughts. Also, please respond to the petition. Here is her email address.
andrea.peyser@nypost.com

My mommy does not get mad about much that she cannot control but I just cannot let this one go.

Footsteps in the kitchen???!


September 16th 2008 5:55 pm   [link to this entry]

Today has been rather boring although it was somewhat funny when Midnite tried to make her escape. Her mom didn't even blink an eye, I guess she isn't as sleek as she'd like to think *snickers*. She thinks she is just sleek and petite. Hmm, although I do love her, she could stand to losen up a bit and have more fun instead of act like an Ice princess. She tries to attack me because I get more love and I get more playtime than she does. *snickers again*


We got to have some tuna today. Yummy. Of course, anytime I hear someone in the kitchen, I come arunning. I always an optimistic and have high hopes that there is a can of tuna being opened in my honor.

Most of the times, there is no tuna but I manage to get lucky sometimes. I always beat Midnite *snickers yet again* in the kitchen. ALWAYS. I think she takes her time so she doesn't look like she is hungry, must be a girl thing. I am all boy, I don't care who knows I'm hungry, I meow when I am and I meow when I am not! MOl.

There is no shame in showing your hunger. I won't prance in there daintily like that silly midnite. *shakes head and snickers* I also am always the first one to talk and I always get my food first. You'd think Midnite would catch a clue and start talking sooner. It must be her pride thing she has. I dunno. She's a different breed of cat, that is for sure, as my family likes to say! *snickers again and again*

Well, I think I have wrote enough. I am begging and protesting to my mommy to update me and Midnite's pages and diaries HALF as much as what she does Miss Priss Miracle's stuff. That Miracle is so spoiled...but that is another topic for another time.

Over and out,
The Checkster

Any cat out there that can help?


September 14th 2008 12:51 am   [link to this entry]

Well, it seems Mom FINALLY gave my page some attention and it's looking pretty nice. *hisss* at mom for taking so long to do it. Notice, she had Miracle's up and done in no time! MOl. I'll try to forgive her if she gives me some tuna!! Well, my mom needs help in trying to get the last few things on my page taken care of. Soooo if any nice cat out there has the info or some advice, i'm sure she'd be grateful.I'd love to have my page all done up too!

Today i played Door with Miracle and I got her good! I won the game today! I made her hiss when I grabbed her paw . I was only trying to play .....nicely. .. MOl. Okay, so maybe we don't get along all that well but playing the game is fun! I found out we are not the only cats who love to play doorr!!! Anyways, I'll update as soon as I can! I hope all the Ike kitties and puppies are okay... we are purring hard for them!

Bingo game balls


September 8th 2008 8:16 pm   [link to this entry]

I found my lil yellow bingo ball!! I am so happy! It's not just any ball that I will play with, nope. It has to be my little yellow bingo ball. It is my I20 ball and I am a happy boy. I give it to the oldest furless one everymorning to play fetch with me. I love to play fetch, that is where Mira gets it from. She's my daughter, you know, so I'm not surprised, mol. I am going to go play with my ball now. Midnite keeps trying to get it but even though I love her and stalk her all the time and stare at her with love all the time, she CAN"T have my ball! It's mine, mine, mine! She can't have the only thing that I want to myself. Nope, I'm putting my foot down this time. Not gonna happen...
Well, I am off to go protect my ball. I carry it up and down stairs in my mouth to keep it out of careless hands. I love to put it in the shoes the kids leave around and try to get it. Okay, okay, I know i have rambled about my ball but I love it so much. Who would have thought that a bingo ball game piece would be my toy of choice? Mol! My momma bought all these great toys for me (that Miracle now has, hummph) but all I have ever wanted to play and chase with are those little yellow balls. In fact, today mommy said since she got a job that maybe she'll buy me some more since I am down to only I20. I would love that. I hear they come in red and blue too. Mommy wonders if it would make a difference to me about the color. But I say as long as Midnite keeps her queen paws off of them, it likely wouldn't matter to me!!

Toilet Paper!!


August 29th 2008 10:17 pm   [link to this entry]

I love me some toilet paper! Today 1 of the furless siblings of mine left a roll out on the kitchen table as they were going to school, and it was completly fair game! I shredded it so much! My mommy came out of her room and let out the biggest gasp! I just could tell how proud she was of me!! I know she was happy to see my toilet paper shreddin skills are still quite in tact from my days as a kitten! If toilet paper was an olympic sport, then I would win a gold medal for sure!!

Tag I'm it!


August 24th 2008 2:19 am   [link to this entry]

1) What is your favorite Olympic sport - Rhythmic gymastics! I love that ribbon! It'd be soo cool to have a big ribbon like that to chase...

2) Do you prefer summer or winter - Winter so I can watch the snow fall from my window!

3) What is the quirkiest thing you do? -I talk a lot and I stare at my true love longingly ALL day. I bet she'd like a break from me sometimes!! I follow her around and just stare at her.

4) Do you have a crush on any other kitties? - I am in love wit Midnite.

5) What is your favorite rosie or zealie, and why? I love the baseball because I love to catch and play fetch with balls!!

What the heck is this school stuff they keep talkin about?!


August 19th 2008 11:44 pm   [link to this entry]

So my little human, whom I live to adore, she's 12. I sleep with her everynight, she dresses me up in funny lil dresses(although I don't like that so much), and just gives me tons of love, has went back to s-c-h-o-o-l, whatever that is! I just sit by the door every afternoon waiting for her to come home. I don't really know how to tell time but I know when I should be by the door awaiting her arrival! While she's at this school thing i sleep on her bed, wishing she was home with me again. *sigh* what is this school and why does she spend so much time there? I think she should be allowed to stay and play with me all day!! I miss her!! She's MY property, not this school's!! However, she did just put on a new pretty blue collar on me. It almost makes up for her putting me in a dress! ALMOST. She still has a bit of redeeming to do. But for now, I'm just happy to see her come in the door every afternoon. I just sit at the door, just waiting. At least she comes home on time and ready to play! I love my human!

Thank you for my purrday gifts!


August 9th 2008 7:56 pm   [link to this entry]

You guys all made my day super special! My sisfur got me added to the Thundercats group where she loves to hang out a lot at so that was cool. But I wanted to say thank you before my mommy comes back to the computer to go back to her job searching, whatever that means. She's been doing that a lot to no avail but she's my favorite mommy and is good to me so I'm sure she'll find a job , although I think she has her job already. Taking care of me and Mia and Midnite but she thinks differently.... ok, getting back on track....
Thank you Lucy for the star! You're the best!
To the gang in El Segundo - Freddie (Adopted!!!), Eddie (Adopted!!!), Nala (Aka Stephanie Adopted), Max (Aka Elton Adopted!) thank you tons for my rainbow star!

To The family of Kittanna, Tigger(In Memory), Taillee, and Zilla, thank you so much for the birthday wishes and the rose, it smells so wonderfuurrll!!
You guys are the best! I don't know what I'd do without you all! Well, peace, Checkers

Today is my birthday!


August 8th 2008 10:58 am   [link to this entry]

Today is my birthday!! Yupppeee!! I am a happy boy! I got put in the birthday stroll and I alsso finally got some paw! and 5 out of 5 at that! Wow, Miracle will be pretty jealous! She always gets the cutest things and everyone loves her and sometimes i feel like i get overlooked but NOT TODAY!! oh yeah, I'm king again! Now, I will say I got diary of the day and Miracle didn't get that either. Many don't know that Mira is actually me and Midnite's daughter but she gets the big comfy room with my mommy. Of course, my mommy did that with me too, sigh, i have to say. But it still doesnt make me want to be around my mommy more. But back to my birthday, yupppeee!! I got some paws!! I don't know how it is one gets paws but oh well, that's Mira's problem to worry about!! heheheeh. My mommy's human kids are getting ready to go back to school and Mommy has a job interview lined up so hopfeully things will get back to normal!! THat would be a wonderfurrr birthday.

Just another day today..


July 28th 2008 4:15 pm   [link to this entry]

Well, as you all know, my mommy is keeping me since I went to that v-e-t. Yeah, I wasn't too happy but since coming home and being able to roam around and play with Midnite, I am having a blast! I am doing well and I am so happy!! I'm such a good boy that mommy is glad she didn't have to give me up and break her heart. Well, today I thught I would sneak some computer time and come let you know how I was doing. I hope your day has been purrrrfect! Love the Checkster!

Here we go again!


July 27th 2008 10:49 pm   [link to this entry]

I do declare! I almost got pushed down the stairs today by that Midnite! She's my true love and mother of Miracle but her Mommy wants her to have a different page than mine but yeah, we're like in love, or so I thought! She tried to push me down those stairs!How dare she. Well, I showed her who was king of THIS house!! lol. I pushed her back and when the humans looked, I looked the other way. Then I got in trouble so I cocked my ear and acted like I didn't even hear my mommmy. It worked, she thought I was the cutest ever and she left me to 'play' with midnite again. Sigh, what a life! Well, I'm out for today but I'll be back to steal my mommy's computer tomorrow to do another diary entry!

Guess what?!!!! The BEST news ever!!!


July 8th 2008 6:30 pm   [link to this entry]

Mommy is going to keep me! She has found a way to get me neutered and for me to stop spraying everywhere. I am so happy! I am so nervous about my surgery tomorrow but I am so happy because it will be outpatient and mommy says I can come home at 6 pm tomorrow AND I'll be able to roam with the other cats! Eragon found his forever home with my mommy's friends so it's just me and Midnite and Mira. Mira and is me and Midnite's daughter and I'll be able to stay around the both of them with no problems, Midnite and I love each other and I am talking to her through the door so I can't wait to come home and be able to play and talk to her again! I am so happy my mommy is going to keep me. I hope I do well. My mommy is a bit anxious about how I'll do but she's going to say her prayers tonight and hopefully all will be well. I am a happy kitty again! Love Checkers

I'm so sad


July 3rd 2008 5:08 pm   [link to this entry]

I am a very sad kitty right now because I need a new home. My mommy has too many cats and the landlord says they have to go. She can only keep two of us and I'm not very friendly with any other cats (I'm the big boy of the house) , so i have to go. My mommy has spent so many days crying about me, that it makes me so sad. I just want a family who will love me as much as she loves me. I am a good cat and I am well behaved. I am so lovey! I love to give love and stay at people's feet more than anything. Right now I am seperated into a room by myself because I can't play nice with the other male cat in the house. It just sucks to be honest. I know she loves me and means well but I gripe to her about it all the time with my mighty loud meows. I love to talk to my family. I love to play with little bingo balls. Please, please, I beg you to please find me a good home!
