Merry christmas all.

reflective tuesday.

hard work sleeping...

That gravity thing makes it a little uncomfortable at times, but a cat has to do what a cat has to do.

Silent Sunday

Don't clean the desk

It's just right for sleeping.

Just what is he doing?

Taking a picture of me and my fish?  I'll just stare at him until he goes away...

-- Zazou.

my chair

Calypso is not the only one who is practicing taking over...

You call that halloween?

It's hot out

The laundry basket is the perfect bed.

Earthquake? Nah, that wasn't a big one...

So here I am ignoring my dad while he asks me why I didn't warn him of the earthquake that just hit.  I didn't think it was big enough to warrant anything, so....

Hey, what are you doing!

This was supposed to be a picture of me!.  Not us!.

sneak.

-- Zazou

Ack, new computer

I don't know what this thing is but it is not big enough for me to sit on and make sure dad types the right thing! My dad calls it a "Mac mini" I call it annoying!

you need to practice

Taking over that is.  I mean it doesn't work out if you don't know how to take over.  Then when you try and take over it just sort of fails.  Do you think that Genghis Kahn didn't practice taking over?  I mean I see a lot of half-hearted attempts out there on taking over, and I have to think to myself, didn't they practice?  I mean it's the most important part...

Here I am practicing taking over the bed.

Summer for locals

So on the coast of California, where it gets foggy in the summer time, after the summer we get warmer weather. Since it's after the kids have gone back to school, it's quieter.  It's warm. It's summer warm. It summer for the locals sleepy-time warm.

Silent Sunday

Kept it away!

I saw this creature outside of the bedroom window, so I let it know who was boss.  When I first saw it, it had its head stuck in the roof of that shed, but then it unstuck itself and looked at our window. That's when I let it know that I was watching, and it was not welcome at all. I stared at it for a long time until it decided that running away was better, so it jumped into the tree and scurried away.

Silent Sleepy Sunny Sunday

Dad wasn't using his side of the bed...

Even though he was in it when I got in...

Do you mind

I'm trying to be cute here.

Silent Sleepy Sundays.

dad made this.

It's not really me playing with the ball too much. After all, is there really too much when it comes to cat toys?

Bothersome....

My mom decided she needed a new smarty phone, and convinced my dad he needed one too.  So they got these pear iPhones (I think they're pear) and my dad has been playing around with the camera on it.  He's been really annoying with it, and can't see that I have been annoyed with him.  You can prolly see it in the picture.

My sister Calypso has her collar back, mom and dad found it behind the couch.

She can't strut around saying "I'm free, I'm free" anymore.

-- Zazou

me me me me.

I have heard that some people think that cats always are being self-centered and egotistical. I don't agree with this. I think that cats are only asking for what they truly deserve and no more. And, since cats really do hold the world together, I think this is a small price to pay.

As far as people who say cats are always saying "me me me me", it's not that we are demanding everything for ourselves. We are just practicing our scales.

-- Calypso  (Oh yes, my mom and dad still have not found my collar! :-) )

Naps.

My dad was home with a cold or something so I had to make sure that I knew how important he was as a lap provider...

You never want to give them the idea that they aren't necessary, at least until we figure out how to open the cans of wet food.

Calypso

sunny saturdays...

a nap is a wonderful thing

I was framed, it wasn't me!

It was entrapment, I swear!

Morning tussle

We have to have a morning tussle, keeps the blood flowing.

whee! Ahh!, what?

I don't know what she was afraid of, and she calls me a scardy cat...

Sun and Fun

Practicing my sphinx pose, though I still have my nose.
The warm sun coming through the window, watching the ball the kids throw.
Now I am done with my rhyme, because I can't think of any more.

-- Zazou

Baseball Season!

I was told baseball was starting up. I've been thinking of finding a job and with my catching skills, I think I could do that!

I'm practicing my fielding by crouching in the bucket, and then when the ball comes by I catch it.  You can see how well I do that.

I'm going to join the Florida Panthers.

-- Zazou

Caught in the act.

I'm so embarrassed,  I was dancing to Queen...

Oh, and I finally got to meet my granma.  My dad's mom came to visit for the weekend

It's important to fill all space.

I wasn't sleeping on the table.

I was listening for the invading hoards of racoons coming to get out kibble.  Really.  Everyone knows that the racoons are coming to take the kibble, and I was watching an old western movie once.  The guide put is ear to the ground to listen for the bad guys.

Well, the ground is not that comfortable, so I figured that the table was probably just as good.  I had my eyes closed so I could hear better.

Thank you all for your well wishes.  My dad's family misses his father furry much, but they are learning to move forward. My dad says that the cancer didn't cause any pain and he died with all his fambly around him and in his sleep. Everyone was able to say good bye.

-- Calypso

80 degrees and February

It's 80 degrees out, or so mom and dad say.  Just the right time to lay in the sun and recharge after the winter.  Oh wait, it's still winter, so we had better save up the heat.

grandpa crossed the bridge

Dad came home and told me it was on Friday.

Haven't been able to post much

My dad, who usually helps us type, has been busy and distracted because his dad is very ill. We purr at him when he's on the phone.

-- Calypso and Zazou

Show it who's boss

 

The rabbit kicks at the end were important to show the track who is boss.

rainbows and saturdays.

 

Rainbows are pretty.

My turn to get the string!

Calypso likes to hog the string, but sometimes I grab it instead.  When I get it, I like to lay on it, grab it in my teeth and then reel it all in.  Then I sit on it all.

I don't know what I'm supposed to do after that.

-- Zazou.

I don't know anything about it.

My dad said that he had a Doctors appointment, and the doctor asked him about scratches on his ankles.  He said that I scratched his ankles while I was playing with the string.  I don't think I did that. I didn't rabbit kick is feet either when I was trying to get the string.

Nope, must have been some monster he meets up with when he goes to work or something.
