Play time

I made time in my busy schedule today to play.

Pretty busy today

It may not appear that I'm busy but in reality, I'm sending my mother subliminal messages, ruling the household through mind control.

Lounging

One of our favorite things to do is take naps on our parents bed.  L to R Boo, Elvis & me, King Huey.

Kitty Corner

I was wrapped around the corner playing, all my mother saw were my back feet.  She thought it was cute.....well....duhhhhh.

Our Christmas Photos

Christmas 2010.  We all had outfits.  I know that I look cute in mine but it hurts my feelings.  It makes me immobile, at least I think it does, I roll around in it and walk backwards, thinking that I will walk out of it..  And, it makes me hot.

I'm stuffed into this thing.

This is my big brother Boo.  He hates his outfit too.

This is Elvis, she's my big sister and she could care less if she has to wear an outfit.  She just lays around the kitchen all day looking for chicken to fall out of the sky.

Craft room kitty

I can't decide if I want to read or help on the sewing machine....either way, I excel at both.

Pussycat, pussycat....

My mother found me a glass at the Antique Bazaar, she thought it would be fit for "King Huey."

I was testing it out but suddenly, I began to sense that I was being stalked.

Can I not have anything that I don't have to share?

Elvis had the bright idea that she was going to put her paw on the glass, to try to get the milk out, I guess.

Well, you see how that went.  I booked so I wouldn't get blamed for anything.

Then Elvis wouldn't own up to her own mess and left Boo there holding the bag.

Never fear....Polly Mae to the rescue.

You've never been ignored until you've been ignored by a cat!

I think my mother was talking to me but I was pretty busy cleaning my fingernails.

My big brother Boo

I have a love hate relationship with my big brother Boo.  Sometimes I like to groom him so that means that I have to hold him down so he'll sit still.  Then sometimes, and I'm not sure why, I find that I have to give him a little bite during the grooming session.  I really don't mean to do it but it just happens.  That usually means that Boo runs away, ending our session of grooming and begins another session of "exercise" as I chase him through the house.  My grandmother says that Boo's life was so much more peaceful before I came to live here.  I say "boring."  I added spice to Boo's life.

Strike a pose...

I thought I'd indulge my mother today and let her get a cute picture of me.

Boring...

Pretty uneventful day today.  My mother was busy doing her crafts today so I laid around, watched birdies, terrorized my big brother Boo...things I do most every day. 

Proof

Ok, Ok.....I got caught chewing the curling ribbon.....so what?  What are you gonna do about it?  I'm not supposed to be on the table either.  Whatever.

For the record...

Just for the record, my mother had to scold me today a couple of times.  I love to chew curling ribbon and sometimes when I swallow it, I hack it back up again.  So she always gets on my case when I chew ribbon.  I think she needs to relax!

Attack of the 50 foot cat!

What's the point of having a doll house around if you're not going to play in it?

Elvis isn't right

This is my sister Elvis.  She's too old to do this now but a while ago she used to love to hang over the edge of the furniture.  She'd sleep for hours like this.  I don't think she looks much like a lady.

I help where I can...

My parents are pretty lucky to have me around.  I'm like having an employee.  I can file like crazy!  Here's the kicker...I do all this work but they don't pay me.  That's a crock.  I didn't sign up to volunteer!  I've got needs you know...kitty toys...treats, etc.  It's not like they just fall out of the sky.  Where's a cat union when you need one.  Just for that....I'm taking  a break, it's nap time. 

King Huey

I AM KING.  I'm glad everyone around my house recognizes that fact.  But let me make this clear...I can rule the house perfectly fine without a crown.  My mother and her chicken wire crowns!!  She thought that I needed to have one.  OK, so if I've gotta have a crown, I want a sceptre.  Look at her chicken wire crowns at http://www.rustandrosesvintagewares.blogspot.com/

Afternoon snack

One day my mother was putting groceries away and she walked out of the room for a second and left the refrigerator door open.  I needed to know what she was stocking in there because I find it important to know if there's anything worth swarming around the kitchen for when she's cooking.  I decided to take a peek.  Woopsie....I got caught.  FYI, the contents were boring.

Like I said...

I've said it before but it bears repeating.....so many birdies, so little time.  One of the great things about snow (other than the fact that I live inside in a warm and cozy home and I don't have to freeze my fuzzy A off outside in the cold...because warm is good) is that it brings my feathered friends out in a crazy flutter of activity.  This excites me.  My mother tells me that I'm not very smart because I sit on the floor and crane my neck to look outside instead of going to a higher vantage point like sitting on the back of the couch to get  a better view.  But I'm Huey...I do things MY way.  And, I'll do things when I want to.  Boo is on the table breathing down my neck...that annoys me because I don't like it when he thinks he's cutting in on my territory.  I think he has plenty of other things that he can be doing besides bothering me....like....how about playing with that disgusting sparkly ball that you tap around the house.....or go get some sympathy from our mother because you have a "boo boo eye."  Whatever, just back off or I'll open a can of whoop A on you. 

Me and Big Brother Boo

Boo was the baby until I came along.  This is Boo and me.  I think he wanted to read a magazine but I wasn't finished.  There's so much to look at in Musician's Friend.

I think I was contemplating whether I should continue reading or take a nap.

Boo and I decided to take a nap.

I do my best to help around the house

This is me, helping put the Christmas tree up in 2008.  I help a lot around the house.  I help my mother make up the bed (actually I play on the bed when she's trying to make it up), I help her in the craft room when she's making things for her shops (mostly I lay on the table and get glitter all over me) and I help her dig my toys out from under furniture.  I love it when she has to get the yard stick out because I shove my toys so far under the washing machine that she has to slide it around on the floor to extract my furry mice.  That pretty much makes my day.

I thought about climbing the tree but then I noticed that my mother was watching so I didn't.  I climbed it later.

I want to slap someone!

This is another one of the stupid sweaters that my granny bought for me.  I can't believe that am wearing this, who am I....Ernie of Burt & Ernie?  Horizontal stripes are NOT flattering.
