Hellllooooooo Out There!

Victor here. 
We has held a Convenshun of Annoyed Tabbys (CAT) an insisted on a new post. We also asked fur a new pictor at the top of the page... the old pictor was actually flipped ofur so you was all seein us in the mirror. Or sumfing like that. Anyway, dis new pictor is more recent an not flipped, so Nina's split-color nose has the colors on the right sides! 

BUT... now our blog title is hidin behind our pictor. Mom said she'd fix it, but ran outa fixin it ideas. We made her stop afore she brakes our bloggie completely.

Dad's been home lots more for awhile now, an then Mom got "laid off" at werk, so it's been up to us to "lay on" her at home. Sumtimes, she gets on the phone wif people an sounds nervous, talkin bout what her is good at. Sumtimes, she gets up early, dresses up an goes out fur a few hours, then comes back excited an tired. We suspect she's tryin to find new werk, but since we want her home, we's arranged for her dress up clothes to haf cat hair droppin off during interviews. I mean, if they don't like cats, why'd she wanna werk there?

Mom's also up to somethin else. She goes out in comfy clothes for awhile and comes back smellin of other kittehs! At first, I was jealous - some ofur kitteh might try to dopt our mom away frum us - but now I's just curious. No new kittehs has comed into our house and the kittehs aren't markin Mom as "theirs", but I gotta sniff her REAL good when she comes home. She says she's helpin kittehs find their furever homes, but if she brings one here, I wanna know about it! This is MY mom we's talkin about, and I won't share her wif just anyone!

Oh, it's me, Nina? 
I understand how busy Mom and Dad can be, but it would be nice to talk to our friends more. I know I look crabby in the new picture up there at the top of our blog, but I wasn't. I just flinch a little because that flash can be so bright! Also, Victor was in my favorite basket, crowding my space. I mean, I like Victor a lot, but when he gets close enough, he usually nibbles and bites me!

I love having Mom and Dad home! I can wander up and purr at them any time I want more skritches and they watch me and Victor wrestle and play. I hop into their laps for petting, but I can't settle there for more than a few seconds. Some of Mom's dress up clothes have danglies that I'm not supposed to play with, so I've been exploring new places, like the top of her dresser, looking for more toys. Exploring is fun when I know Mom and Dad are around to protect me.

I've smelled other cats on Mom's clothes and hands, too. Mostly, I don't mind, but one time, I looked all around for the new cat! I poofed my fur so if I found that new cat, it would think I'm big. But there's no new cat, just me and Victor. I think Mom's helping shelter cats find new homes, and that's good. Victor and I were shelter cats.

All in all, we are happy and healthy, finding the warmest sleeping places and keeping our human "beans" in line. Now, I'm going hunting for the red light bug. Bye!

I'm gettin suspicious!

Ohai, furiends! Somefing suspicious is goin on. Maybe u can help me figger out what's up wif Mom (my Mom. MINE).

Sumtimes she hunts at werk til really late. Then she comes home tired an I give her extra lap time. But one nite she camed home tired an eatin a cheezburger! Wul, I asked agin and agin, I can has cheezburger? But her didn't gif me any. She said, "not for kitteh." Ha! Since when is cheezburger no can haz?

Wul, I admit I was distracted, but then, underneeth the smell of cheezburger, I smelled somefing else. It was pretty faint, but I smelled... STRANGE GIRL KITTY!!!

What is goin on? Did Mom meet an pet a strange kitteh? I know she talks to the store kitties at Mad Cat and pets any adoptables she can, but that's on teh weekends, not affer werk. I fink I need to stay alert. No letting cheezburgers distract me from Mom's activities, no sir!

What, Who, Me?

Mom on Monday

O hai! I just thought I'd share a couple kitty stories that Victor and Nina didn't want to tell from their points of view.

One morning last week, Victor was curled up under the covers, behind my knees. Nina started walking around on the bed, purring, and thought she'd curl up behind my knees. She SAT on top of Victor a few seconds before he wiggled away and she wandered elsewhere.

Nina has become our furry alarm clock. If their dad doesn't get up at 4:30, Nina starts walking on the bed at 4:40, purring. And across our pillows. And she noses any exposed hands. All while purring LOUDLY. Where's Victor? Curled up by me, happy to sleep all day if I never get up! I should add, *I* don't need to get up until 7, so there's plenty of time to go back to sleep while Nina sees Dad off.

Actually, if I sleep in, I end up with Victor beside me and Nina on top of me. It's her only "lap" time, and it's not technically my lap since I'm lying down. Then Victor rolls over, licks Nina a bit, then starts wrestling with her. All still on top of me. This usually ends when one of them makes me say "Oof! Off".

I love my kitties! They're very good, when they're not being naughty!

Mom Safed a Bird!

Hey Bonnie, didja here? Mom safed Oreo!
Oreo? He's in Virginia. How could she save him?
Not that Oreo. This Oreo's frum Baltimore. An Mom safed him.
Victor, that doesn't make sense.
I herd Mom an Dad talkin bout it. The Oreo from Baltimore was tangled in fish, hangin frum a branch, an Mom sawed him an safed him's life!
Tangled in FISH?
Sumfing like that. She held Oreo while a flicker cut the fish off.
How much catnip have you had today?
No, really! Here' s a pictor Rurik took to proof it.
Rurik?
The flicker! He had cutters wif him an helped free Oreo.

Victor, that's not Oreo or a flicker, that bird's a Baltimore Oriole.
Dat's what I said! Baltimore Oreo.
And our woman holding it. Our woman caught a bird?
No, the fish caught it and she helped free it. She safed his life.
She caught a bird and LET IT GO???
Uh, yea.
Haven't I taught her anything? Beans. is. weird.
Beans. is. weird.


Tabbymom here. We went for a photowalk with other Madison Flickr members. When I realized this poor bird was hanging from a branch, tangled in fishing line, I tried to help. Our Flickr friend Rurik had his pocket knife and we managed to cut the line away. The little guy had it tangled around his neck! Then he flew away! I didn't get any pictures, but other "Flickrs" got some. Sorry, Bonnie, Victor, no bird for you.

Cat Friends Helping FriendsDon't forget the current raffle at Cat Friends Helping Friends... The Wren's Next donated some wonderful signs so we can help friends in need. Raffle ends on Monday!

You didn't see me run into the bathroom, try to jump into the linen closet, fall onto the potty lid, and run out again...


No, Honey, I didn't see that.


Good. Cuz it was kinda embarrassing.


I love you, Victor, my silly boy.


I love you too, Mom.

Mooooom, Come to Bed!

Sum nites, my mom stays up late at the puter. An the puter is in the puter room, where Bonnie stays. Bonnie doesn't like me comin into the puter room too much, so when I wants Mom to stop wif the puter an come to bed, here's what I say.

Coy Victor
"Mom, it's late. Let's get to bed."

Silly Victor
"Mom, go to bed NOW."

Alluring Victor
"Please, please come rub my belly so we can get to bed?"
