Toe-Tidying Tuesday

Kitties!

The Baby here.

I'm getting ready for our weekend* on some clean warm towels in the laundry room.

I want to nap and rest up, but something just doesn't seem quite right.

hmmmmm.

What could it be?

AHHHH!  That's the ticket toe-kit!

**gnawdiddy gnaw gnaw gnaw**

Oh my, now I'm everso sleepy...all that washing wore me out.

ZZZZZzzzzzzZZZZzzZzzzZzzzZzzzzzzzzzz

Happy Toesday!

*Mommy is off work on Toesday, Humpday, and Purrsday.

Fragrant Friday

Kitties!

The Baby here.

Yesterday Mommy got a bug up her butt the urge to cook!  When the cool weather arrives she fires up every available burner and both ovens on at least one of her days off and cooks and bakes and sautes and simmers her fool head off.

So, after she concocted a  huge VAT of soup, baked bread, roasted squash and garlic bulbs, and made quiche the house was pretty fragrant.  Daddy called Mommy the Stinky French Chef.  (I'm fairly sure it was a compliment--ed.)

Needless to say some of the stink settled on my furs.

hmmmmmm...I actually don't taste bad at all; in fact Mommy's cooking tastes pretty darn good!

And I think I just found a chicken soup spot--must investigate...

*licketty lik lik lik*

Oh yeah.  Chicken for sure!

Happy Friday!

Messy Monday

Kitties!

The Baby here.

Mommy opened up a Most Delicious can of cat food (GRAVY!!!!) and graciously allowed me to lick it clean.

It was like the never-ending snack...I got it all over my face!

And neck.

And vest.

Not that I minded.

**slurp**

::likkity lik lik lik::

Hmmmm...this might take a while...

Happy Monday!

"The Bath", a Short Film

Kitties!  

Sweet Pea (and Rupert) here.

I was having a nice solo snooze in my garden window box when Rupert barged in to snuggle.  Now, I don't mind cuddling with him, he's warm--but he IS a Stinky Boycat--so first I gave him a little wash to remove his funk and tidied his eyebrows.  Then we settled in and had a nice nap together, all afternoon!  Sometimes a washing session doesn't lead to biteys and bad feelings.  Not often, but occasionally.

(Don't worry if you can't make out what Mommy was saying...it's just her usual drivel.)

Here's to a peaceful, loving week!  With clean eyebrows.

Happy Monday!

Cleaning up for Caturday

Kitties!

Grayce here.

I'm putting the finishing touches on my claws, preparing for the weekend.

I want to be ready for everything fun!

Happy Caturday!

Tongue Trials

Kitties!

Tiny J here.

Mommy ordered me us her and Daddy two new feather pillows for the sofa and some fun fabric to make pillowcases for them.  Everything was delivered so today she ran them up on her sewing machine and then *I* got to give them the initial Test Drive!

They seem nice and cushy...

...but you can never be sure. 

 Further mileage was required, so I took 'em out for a grueling trial on the dangerous and intimidating washboard road course.

I rounded the shoulders...

cruised onto the back stretch...

and into the curves...full tongue ahead!

The verdict?

These pillows are definitely roadworthy, and ready to ride into the Land of Nod.

Nitey nite...

Happy Wednesday!

 *ptui*

Oh hello, Kitties!

Salem here, and from this picture you can see that Mommy is:  a) an indifferent housekeeper (those are litterbox crumbs on the tile--I think hope); and b) a genius at leveling out this end table.  And also an expert at Bathus Interruptus.  And also also bad at framing a photo.

Well.  That's better.

On so many levels...

Happy Monday!

Mommy: heh heh heh...let's see if Miss Crustybutt notices how I signed her post!  

What a critic.

Wednesday is Washday

Kitties!

Tiny "Lion" Johnson here.

The other evening Mommy was out on our Catio, titivating.

Wanna see what she was doing? 

Follow me!

Check it out--she de-furred all our cat beds and stacked 'em up, waiting their turn for the washing machine to turn them into clean, fresh-smelling Cat Nests.

Oh, boy, this is gonna be GREAT!

 Mommy, hop to it and get that washer cranked up! 

I feel a nap coming on...

Happy Wednesday!

Triple Tee Tidy Tuxedo Tuesday!

Kitties!

Salem here.

As you can see, I'm performing a thorough tongue-tidying.

I like to go top to bottom, so I do my ears and whiskers first.

My vest is next.

Then I work on my shirt ruffles, right to left...

...with a minor detour to lavish a little lavage upon my Plump, Juicy, Thigh.

Slowly, I wash my way down to my tasty tuxy tummy.

And beyond. 

 (not pictured for modesty reasons)

A final spit shine to my sleeves,

and I'm done!

Whew.  

Happy Tuesday!

Tuesday Toilette

Kitties!

Sweet Pea here.

Can you guess what I'm doing?

I'll give you a little hint:  Mommy calls it "Playing The Cello"!

Mommy is a wacko nutjob.

Really, I'm washing my pretty pantaloons! 

Or my "featherpants", as I prefer to think of them.  On account of they are soft and fluffy like down feathers.

They are long, too...Mommy measured them once and they are over three inches long from haunch to fur tip. 

Gotta go now...

 I feel a Yo-Yo Ma solo coming on.

Happy Tuesday!

Sunday's Kitty is Named Grayce!

Kitties!

Grayce here.

I'm just relaxing in the sun, laying on the bench on the Catio, washing up a little.

I like to pay special attention to my ears, because I want to be the first kitty to hear the treat jar rattle!

*lickety lickety lick lick lick* 

ACK!

I washed my ear inside out!

 Don't you hate it when that happens?

I'll have to give it another swipe. 

*rubbity rub rub...FLIP snap straighten*

There, that's much better.

*Whew*

I'm always a little worried it might stick that way.

But if I wanna be first in line, I've gotta live dangerously!

Happy Sunday!
