Cat Grazz

Kitties!

Sweet Pea here.

As a sop to their guilty consciences for trying to off us with bad cat food ongoing effort to boost our digestive systems, the peeps started some cat grass for us to eat!

It's tender and delicious and has, so far--in just one day--produced FOUR Quite Spectacular green piles of effluvia from a Mystery Bomiter.* 

Life is Good, kitties.

Happy Whitesday!

Whitey Wound

Kitties!

Sweet Pea here.

I have some disturbing news to report--I almost vent to the vet!

See how my fur is a little manky behind my ear?  I had an abscess that I didn't tell anyone about which drained.

Last week Mommy noticed that I was glued to the sofa for a couple of days (not my usual spot), and that my eye was a little runny.  She told Daddy that I was perhaps due for an Unpleasant Excursion if I didn't perk up.  Well the next day I was all crusty and gooey behind me ear and right away they knew what had been going on.  It's hard to say how I got punctured; I wrassle with several of my housemates daily and we are a pretty rough-and-tumble bunch when we play.

I was back to my usual sunny purrsonality as soon as I got cleaned up (thank you Daddy!), and Mommy put a warm compress on my ear off and on for two days to hiss me off encourage it to heal.

My other ear is just fine...

All the better to discharge my Guard Duty:

Making sure that this Cat Grass is eaten responsibly!

We all have been producing some spectacular green yaks...everywhere.

Happy REAL Caturday!

Tiny (un-nekkid) Johnson* here.

Don't let The Baby fool you, she's not the only Kat Daddy grows oat grass for.  We have two big pots' worth of our own on the Catio!  It's quite delicious.

*Mommy imitates the gentle sound of cattle lowing*

moooOOOOoooooOOO

Rupert:  Well, that was uncalled for.

John:  Consider the source, dude.

Rupert:  Yep, Mommy is a scallywag!  I think I'll just ignore her.  Now, this blade looks particularly succulent...

::chews cud::

Mommy!  We can read, you know!

Happy Moo-day!

Tasty Tuesday

Kitties!

The Baby here.

I may  have told you this before, but every morning I relentlessly politely pester ask to Go Outside.  I gotta pee in the soil of Nevada at least once daily or the Earth might go spinning off into space--really--it could happen.

Anyway, after I dig fifty holes and pee in only one I enjoy a nice snoop around the back yard.  One place I inspect is the peep's winter garden.

(Mommy needs to ramp up her lettuce-eating, it's starting to bolt!)

Behind the kale Daddy planted some oat grass just for me.

Actually, he takes some in for the other Kats but I deign not to notice that...

*grizzling*

...because I'm the only one allowed Outside to eat the grass in situ!

Happy Tuesday!

Sunday ALREADY!?!?!?!

Friends and Kitties!

aaaiiieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sheebie here, and somehow, I ran out of time.

All is well here, just busy! 

 Training at work for our new computer control system means lots of overtime, plus I'm gearing up for a trip down to Tucson to see my parents and Shadow (perhaps not in that order).  How is it that holidays are so much work beforehand? 

Please enjoy some gratuitous kitteh pictures instead of my usual epistolary raving.

::thlurp::

::bliss::

Sheesh.

You'd think they'd remember about that the sprinkler...

*rolls eyes*

Happy Sunday!!

Titivatin' Tuesday

Kitties!

Guess what's back on the Catio for our amusement?

Our Grass Planter!

Last week there were landscapers laying sod in the horse corral at the Park Across the Street, so Mommy toddled over there (Mrs. El Cheapo) to ask for a scrap piece.  She brought it home and fixed up our Planter with fresh soil and such.  The awful bit is we've had to wait all week while it took root.  The Baby checked it out every morning to gave us the daily grass update...and Sunday it was ready!  Daddy wheeled the freshly-grassed Planter in (it's heavy, so it's on a wheelie cart) and we got busy, mowing it down.

The Grass Planter is also a fine spot to relax and enjoy a well-deserved nap.

And the best part about it is that it fits two kitties!

Rupert:  Scouty, old sod, you've a bit of soil in your furs.

Let me take care of that for you.

Scouty:  Thanks, dude!

And what's that I see in your capacious, froot-batty external auditory meatus?

Mommy!

A little privacy, woman.

Sproutin' Maui

Kitties!

shhhhhhhhhhh...

The theme for this week's Saturday PhotoHunt is ~PLANTER~

Here's Maui (in a 2011 photo) face planted sound asleep in the planter where Daddy grows our purrsonal eatin' grass in the wintertime.

Happy Caturday!

Cat...or Cow?

Kitties!

Scouty here...

...with my latest victim.

Mommy pulled up a grassy weed and tossed it into the Catio.

Naturally, we investigated.

::sniff::

An internal investigation, that is.

Happy Thursday!

One Thought Thursday

Kitties!

Maui here.

You know, there's only one thing to think when the Braided Grass Rope appears:

KILL!!!

::anticipatory lip lick::

::Whisker Cup activated::

Reaching...stretching...

Wait for it...

Wait for it... 

AAAAUUUUUUUUGGGHHHHHH!!!!

Too soon!

I wasn't ready.

Whoops--gotta remember to smile for the camera.

At last.

Victory is mine!

Feel my scimitar fangs, Braided Grass Rope, and prepare to die.

Happy Thursday!

CAT TAILS Tuesday!

Kitties!

Salem here, just minding my own business, relaxing on the floo...

HEY!!  What in the world is POKING me?!?

Oh my Cod, these are the biggest blades of grass I've ever seen!

What's that Mommy--they're cattail leafs?  No way!  That's silly.  One, there's no such thing as a green kitty; Two, cats grow furs and not leafs; and Three, you're a human.   

Mommy, I don't care what you say these things are... 

...I'm calling 'em FUN...

...and they need to DIE!

Uh oh.

The killer instinct is catching.

Gotta act cool.

 Maybe if I pretend they aren't there they'll disappear.

TO BE CONTINUED...

Happy Tuesday!

The Little Sheep Pea

Kitties!

Sweet Pea here.

We got fresh oat grass!  Our old grass was getting chewed and crisp, and since we are all shedding by the bushel it's important to have a little dietary roughage to, erm, move things through.

I love grass.  Actually, I like greens in general--strawberry tops, asparagus, celery leaves, kale, basil, you name it, I'll nibble!  So you can imagine how excited I was to see the oat grass.

I buried my snooter deep into the blades and inhaled the gustatory green aroma.

*bliss*

But enough of that. 

I had the Need to Feed!

::chomp::

But wait--for some reason that section was no good for grazing (you know how that goes), so I surveyed my options.

hmmm, that bit looks tasty...

if I stretch my neck out just a leeeetle bit...

Yes, it's purrfectly delectable!

SUPER CHOMP!!!

*chew chew chew*

::thluuuurrrrp::

mm mm, good!  Nothing like some fresh green grass to keep your trains on time.

And Mommy, you can stop with the snickering and sheep remarks any time.

Happy Tuesday!
