Arrival Story: Our elderly cat, Clyde, went to the Rainbow Bridge to join his sister, Bonnie, who went to live there two years before. We said "No more pets." That didn't last long, so we went back to the vet's to see the cats she had for adoption. On the top of a cat condo, right by the front door, were two sleeping black kitties. Turns out they were 7-month-old brothers who had been born at the vet's office and had lived there while awaiting their forever home. Well, you couldn't take just one of them, so "Mighty Mouse" (to become Bobby) and "Hector" came home with us -- with different colored collars so we could tell them apart.
Bio: We weren't very fond of the vet-given names, so we decided on Sherlock and Holmes. A week or so later, the vet called to tell us that the adoption of a kitty we had liked fell through. So, we adopted Jack. Considering my political persuasion, our little family became Jack, Bobby and Teddy Kittedy. Bobby is Daddy's boy.

And am I ever in trouble!! Both Mrs. H and My Daddy are mad at me. Let me tell you what happened.
I was just chillin' out, half asleep on My Daddy's lap. Teddy was laying on his table next to His Mommy, and Jack was looking out the Big Window. All of a sudden, there was a loud noise as Teddy jumped off the table and attacked Jack. Now, believe me, no one jumps Jack except me. He's my playmate, and no one is allowed to make him squeal except me. So, I jumped down and went after Teddy. He ran, and I chased him through the house. I'd catch him and make him hiss and howl, let him go, and catch him again. Of course, His Mommy is chasing both of us yelling for me to stop. Then, horrors, My Daddy yelled at ME. So, I stopped chasing Teddy -- for a couple of minutes. But I was so mad at Teddy that I chased him again. My Daddy scooped me up and put me in the Little Room.
So here I am -- all alone in this little room. Now, I ask you; is that fair?
They're trying to tell me that Teddy did nothing wrong. He was just scared when His Mommy knocked over her coffee cup and jumped on the floor, which scared Jack, who meowed. Likely story.
On Saturday, I had my very first date at The Cat's Meow. It was with Emily (Catster Id: 855516). I had decided to take her to Vail, CO, for lunch. My Daddy let me borrow his fast car. Of course, my pesky brothers had to try to stow away in the back seat. I showed my Emily all the sights on the way to Vail -- the mountains are beautiful this time of year. We lunched at the Wild Flower room. Using Catster magic, they had created a perfect summer day for us. It was quite tempting to chase the butterflies and the hummingbirds, but I didn't want Emily to think I was kittenish and not all grown up. Emily looked so beautiful among the trees and flowers. On the way home, we stopped in Georgetown for ice cream and in Idaho Springs for a pizza. Our parting was so romantic. (Blush) She kissed me on the cheek. I sent her flowers cause that's what My Daddy said gentlemen do.
My Daddy and Mrs. H are never satisfied to just leave well enough alone. Don't they realize that I am very happy with My House as it is. Do you know what they did, Dear Diary? They put new stuff in My House -- and even worse -- in My Daddy's office. Don't they realize how much I loved sunning myself on that ratty old chair while I work on my novel? And his old desk is gone and all the furniture is moved around. I just know I'm going to stub my toe in the dark on all this new stuff. These things don't smell like me. Don't they know how much time it will take me to make it all smell good? Oh, my, the work ahead of me -- I don't know where to begin.
Later: Well, Dear Diary, surprise, surprise. You know that new chair in My Daddy's office I was complaining about? Let me tell you -- is that chair just made for a cat. The back is curved just so -- wraps around me like My Daddy's arms. And soft -- I could nap for hours if my pesky brothers would just leave me alone. To top it all off, it sits in the SUN. It was so nice of My Daddy to buy Me this new chair.
