Hear Me Roar

Just a quick hello!

So...what's going on? I'm still loving the TV. I watch anything and everything. It's fascinating! There's some pretty cool shows out there. Mama and Dad watch a lot of TV. Some of it is more interesting than others. I like shows that are busy and have a lot of action, like "24" and "CSI" and "MXC." A couple weeks ago Mama put on that really good bird and squirrel show for some people who were at our house who'd seen the pictures of me watching TV. I was SO excited to see those birds again! Everybody laughed at me but Mama called me her little boy and gace me scratches so I didn't mind.

I've been doing a lot of quality window-sitting lately, now that it's warm outside and Mam and Dad have the windows open a lot. Darwin likes to hog the windows perch most of the time but when he goes and sits on the condo, I get into the window.

Mama even let me out a while back when Darwin was on his line in the backyard. I poked around in the mulch for a while and then went exploring. Mama came calling for me and I came out from inside the neighbor's garage. She picked me up and exclaimed that I was filthy...well, I had been rolling around on the driveway concrete for a while...it just felt so good! How was I supposed to know I was going to get all covered in dust? Plus, it was really dusty in the neighbor's garage...Mama said to Dad that she could see clouds of dust blowing off my fur. Sheesh. That's why I have a tongue! To clean myself up! But Mama rubbed me with a damp towel. Oh Mama...I'm not people...I don't have to be wet to take a bath!

Lately I've been super affectionate to Dad. I'm a reserved kitty. It takes me a long time to get used to new things. I figure I've been living here for almost 3 years, it's about time I warmed up to Dad. So now he gets the leg rub and kitty head bumps and I talk to him. He's really nice. He knows all the spots I like to be scratched. I should have done this months ago!
