Another Oh, Nose!

Buddy. Despite his human's very good advice, he's been teasing 'Toonya again, so.

New Toys

The human came home just now to find all of the gourds missing - good thing she's coming from the farmers' market, where she bought, you guessed it, more gourds...

There He Is...!

 

Toys, Again

I have to say that AreToo's insistance on playing with my ornamental gourds - as opposed to, say, catnip mice and snakes - is not favorite: this is the 4th time I've found a gourd in the kitchen, or hallway - as opposed to on the pretty blue platter in the living room where they and the pumpkin are supposed to be decorously displayed...

Batteries, Again

I think I got a good picture of Aretoo this morning before I went to work, but tonight the batteries died, so we're recharging even as I type. Everybody's being pretty sweet/good, although Angel was digging in the plants again, in order to play with rocks - so much more fun than catnip mice and even snakes, don't you know - and Buddy was teasing Petunnia until I made him stop... In other words, a typical evening.

Oh, Nose!

Not a typo - I was cuddling Cloud and she was licking my nose and I forgot that Cloud kisses always end in a nibble!

Anthea Again

Angel To The Rescue

A little while ago Angel's human was still in bed, but not exactly sleeping. Instead, she was curled into a tight knot, with vague, dark images cycling through her mind. Then Angel kneaded her awake with his sharp little claws, surrounded her with negative ions and purred in her ear. What a good little alarm clock he is!

Regular Blogging, Cont.

Dark! It's getting dark earlier, and the human is not ready. She forgot to turn on the little robot light on the porch, and so tonight stumbled around and fumbled for the keyhole. And coming inside, it was equally dark - someone managed to unplug the lamp she'd left on - which pleases her in so many different ways, not!

For Christy: More old pics - this is Anthea and his human...

Setting A Bad Example For The "Kittens"

Late last night there was a commotion at the foot of the bed (Growlhissssscreeech!). The human sat up quickly(Begoodbesweet!), fully expecting to find Angel and Cloud at it again. Instead, there's Petunnia being furious with Buddy - You Two! Is this anyway to behave after all these years?

Note To Banshee - Be Careful What You Wish For

Earlier today, the crunchies bowls in the kitchen were, well, semi-empty. When the human passed through, Banshee was plaintively standing watch beside "her" bowl, so the human emptied the other semi-empty bowls into hers, and went on about her business. A few minutes later, back in the kitchen, there is Banshee absolutely unmoved, unmoving, the now full crunchies bowl absolutely untouched, and reproach absolutely precipitating out of the air... So the human gets out a new bag of crunchies, fills up all the bowls, and as Banshee, satisfied, begins to crunch and munch, Cyrrie shows up to share "her" bowl, even though other bowls are available. Amazingly they manage to share very nicely - choreographed eating!

Big-Time Eye-Balling

 

Can Cloud successfully stare down this pumpkin? And can we caption this for I Can Has Cheezburger?

Shy Cyrrie

 

Right after he patted my face this mornng, and right before I gave him my fingers to gobble...

OMG

This picture was in one of the boxes Angel avalanched down the stairs this morning - it's me and my brother - no idea where - and me mesmerized by a you-know-what - years before I finally actually got to live with one...

Day Off

It was a pretty good day for this human - she got to hang with the babes and blog a bit, and she successfully shopped for the necessities of life: kittylitter and catnip, mascara and Clinique Aromatics Elixir (the guys are all holding their little noses) and - best of all - the newest Terry Pratchett, Making Money...

Solidarity

 

It's What!

 

That's his actual name (Who's on first). The human once again fell for an espensive ($3.50) toy, telling herself even as she bought it, they'll never play with it, never... To her amazement, everybody was like, Oh, this is cool! So much so they've already broken the "string" (it's really plastic)...

And Lucy, besprinkled, is playing with what?

Napster

Oh Nooooooooooooes...!

Another thump. Th-thump. Th-th-th-thump! TH-THUMP! THUMP! THUMP! Thump, th-thump, thump... In other words, an avalanche, filling up the entire stairway with... things. Books. Boxes. Books. An antique telephone. Books. An old wine bottle. Books. A fan. Books. And more books. At the top of the stairs the human had an improvised bookcase, a couple of lucite panels balanced on books and wine bottles and - obviously - full of things. Fortunately no cat or "kitten" was injured, although the human can tell by the way he's still slinking around - it was Angel. (He was much cuddled, of course.) (Was this payback for that other post?)

Of course you can have a pride of lions, but did you know that you can also have an intrigue of kittens and a comfort of cats?

Human And AreToo Talk

AreToo lays on the dresser, where the human can pet him, etc. According to an ancient formula she says, AreToo - I love you and love you and love you, and love you and love you and love you, and love you and love you and love you even more than that! (Italics still not working...)

AreTooooo...!

Oh, dear. The human has had a teh stressful day. This morning, not long before she had to leave for a doctor appt, AreToo and the human were involved in a collision: the human stepped out of the bathroom just as AreToo raced down the hallway - BANG! AreToo ran right into the human's leg! This has happened before and was no big deal, but this time AreToo ran under the bed and would not come out. The human went to get the flashlight, but by the time she got back to the bedroom, Aretoo was gone. The human waited for his reappearance in an ever increasing state of panic. Finally she got out the laser toy, hoping that AreToo would want to join the game. And he did. But when the human tried to pick him up, he ran back up to the attic. Stricken, but believing he must be at least 99.9% ok, the human left for her appointment and work. Anxious all day, she hurried home to find him in the hallway, but again when she went to pick him up he disappeared up the attic stairs. He did (why doesn't italicize work?) come down for FancyFeast, and (picture the italics) did let the human pat him while he ate, but he's still avoiding her right at the moment, which she finds devastating. Hmmmm. Go get some fresh catnip leaves and run them all over myself. It (italics) could work... We'll see.

Banshee says, BOOORing...
