New Summer Toy!

Surprise!  We found a new cat toy in the house today.  It is a cat tunnel.  My brother, Bubbles, and I had a ball exploring it and running through it.  It even makes a crinkly noise when you walk in it!  Summer is a great time for new play toys.  What new toys do you have this summer?

 

Watching you have a great summer!

Since I can't go outside, I will just stay here at the screen door and watch you have a wonderful summer!

 

Remember to keep your brain active and read some good books.  Might I suggest -- "The Cat in the Hat", "The Mystery of the Missing Cat", "Warriors: Cats of the Clan" or how about "The Cat Came Back".

I'll do the laundry

I'm all ready to help with the laundry.  But I am having a hard time opening the washing machine.  I see my Mom open it all the time.  It looks easy.  Why can't I get this machine opened?  

I'm confused!

What does my toy say?  Can you please read it to me.  Do you think this is my toy?  I am a cat and I say "MEOW"!  Who do you think this toy belongs to?  I still like this toy and will take a little nap with it next to me.  See you later!

Bubbles and I had the best of time playing with the wonderful wrapping paper. 

We hope you had a wonderful time with all your Christmas gifts!

Newspaper

What's so cute about the newspaper?  I watch my mom read and read and read.  Do you like to read?  I have a feeling reading is very important, but for now, PLEASE PET ME!!!

D is for December and Dusty

Look at me! I am on a calendar for the month of December.  I hope my Mom hangs this calendar in her computer lab.

Very Blustery Day!

 What is all that howling I hear?  It woke me up from my nap.

 

I went to the windowsill and saw leaves blowing everywhere.

 
 

Leaves were flying high and low.

 

I spent most of the afternoon looking out the window and watching all the leaves dance.

 

After a while, I decided to climb back up on my chair.

 

Nap time again.

 

Just Me and My Bro!

Do you have a brother?  Maybe you have a sister.  It is nice to have someone in your life that you care about and just like to hang out with.  I really like my brother, Bubbles.  We hang out together and even sit in the same chair.  That is pretty special!

 

Hanging out at the window is fun to do together.

 

Pink!

What is this pink cloth covering my favorite glass table?  It looks like something fun is going to happen.  I better keep a close watch.

Footsie!

While taking my nap under the curtain, my foot felt something soft.  It was Bubbles.  We both love this sunny spot by the window.  Great napping place!

"Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!"

It's sooo cold in the house.  Mom doesn't want to turn on the furnace yet, so I have been trying to find places that will keep me warm.  I tried to snuggle under Giget's cute little dog blankets, but the floor was still cold.  I found all this warm laundry fresh from the dryer.  It feels good and even reminds me of when I lived on the front porch and hid under the peoni bushes.  I am not sure if I like this cold weather or not.  

Fly Catcher!

Sometimes when the dogs go outside, they let a fly or moth in.  These bugs head straight for the light bulb in the lamp.  My job is to catch those pesky little bugs.  Tonight I am on guard as one is trapped in the lamp shade.

Hey Mom, I'm going to catch that bug - wanna watch?

Look at me - I am in the lamp shade and I'm going to catch that bug.  Wow, it is way too bright in here and OUCH, I should not have touched that bulb.  IT IS SO HOT!!!



Peek-A-Boo!!!

Can you guess where I am?  I am under Dash.  My little toy went sliding on the kitchen floor right under Dash.  I am not scared of Dash anymore.  I don't even mind going under him!  I am so brave!

Peek-A-Boo!!!

Who You Travel With!

Remember - In life, it's not where you go - it's who you travel with.

 

Goodbye - have a great day!

Every morning I say goodbye to my people as they leave for school.  Some mornings I sit on the front windowsill and watch them drive away.  Yikes, today they caught me watching them and are taking my picture.  Well . . . have a great day at school!

I love the Doggie Bed!

This cute little bed belongs to my doggie sister, Giget.  When she is not in it, I love to snuggle in the soft cushions and blankets.  I hope Giget doesn't mind me using her little bed.

What's for Dinner?

What is that delicous smell?  The sound of bubbling and the steam from the pot makes me very curious as to what is happening on the stove.  I don't think it is for me, but I sure would like a bite?  

Chores!

Do you do chores?  I like to help around the house and keep things clean.  Here I am cleaning the kitchen table.  But everytime I do this, Mom comes after me and re-cleans everything.  Oh well, at least we both are doing our part to keep the house clean.

Can I go to School?

Dusty wants to go to school with us so bad.  This morning it looked like he was trying to put on Hannah's backpack.  Don't you think we should bring him to school???

Dash and Dusty are Friends

My New Family - Meeting Dash, the BIG dog!

My new home is a pretty big place, but not big enough that I wouldn't sooner or later have to meet the BIG dog.  Everything about him was BIG.

Anyway, I was ok as long as we kept our distance from each other.  The BIG dog never bothered me or chased me or even tried to sniff me.  He is really a very sweet, gentle dog.  But his sheer size just plain scares me.  I think I could fit in his mouth.  I am getting better and not hissing or arching when he walks past me.  I think I heard my Mom say that she wishes the new kitten would curl up and snuggle with the BIG dog.  She thinks it would make a great photo, and boy does she take a lot of photos.  I hate to disappoint my new Mom, but I am just not sure if snuggling with the BIG dog is gonna happen.  If it does, I hope Mom has her camera ready  :-)

My New Family - Meeting Giget the Dog

The next family member I met was Giget.  She was more my size, but not a cat.  She is a dog.  I have only known my cat family from back on the Front Porch.  I have never been so close to a dog before and I must be careful.  Giget was very curious of me at first and a little pushy.  My new Mom kept having to hold her and call her as she wanted to get too close to me.  But living in my little apartment helped us both get used to each other.  One time my Mom let me out of the apartment and let Giget get in it.  That was funny.  Giget liked going in my apartment as she got to sniff and check out all my cool things.  Giget doesn't like to play much, she just seems to want to guard my Mom.  Giget is always very close to Mom, especially when she is holding me.  But all in all, she seems to be a good little dog and Mom sure loves her.  I think we will get along well.

My New Family - Meeting Bubbles the Cat

When I felt confident to meet my new family, my new Mom set up this cool cat apartment in the family room just for me.  I think it was an old dog crate, but I didn't mind.  I felt pretty safe in there.  I met Bubbles the cat first.  I was so happy to see a member of the cat family will be part of my new family.  He didn't hiss or spit or anything at me.  He just looked at me and tried to play with me.  We batted at each other for several days before I was allowed out of my apartment. 

Bubbles stayed by my apartment all the time just watching me and me watching him.  Wow, he is a BIG cat.

Once I was allowed out of my apartment, the cat play began.  Since Bubbles is such a big cat, I always take the submissive position and bat back at him.  We have been playing hard.  Sometimes our Mom has to break it up because we get a little rough.  Mom was pretty worried about me because I am so little.  But one morning I heard Mom say she is worried about Bubbles.  His one eye was swollen.  Oops, I am sure my sharp little hind claw got him.

Bubbles and his sore eye.
