Mancat Monday

Kitties!

Rupert here.

In case you were wondering, it is the epitome of Manliness to cozy up on a heaty pad.

Especially when it's chilly!

Mommy squee'd when she saw me lounging on the sofa, toasting my tummy and oozing Grey Handsomeness but since she grabbed the camera instead of me I was forced to turn up the charm to get some pettings:

*wink*

It worked!

I got a lovely ear rub and all sorts of fussings.

purrrRRRRrrrRRRRrrrrrrrrr

Happy Monday!

Manliness

For your information, it is Verreh Manly to lay on your human's chest, nailing 'em to the sofa with Love Eyes a Steely Glare.

And a loud purr always helps to drive your point home: Cats Rule!

Happy Sunday!

Tuxedo Tuesday

Friends and Kitties!

The Mommy here.

I want to express a huge Thank You to all of you from Scott and I, your kind comments on the blog and Facebook after Sylvester's passing have been very comforting.

We miss our big ole Tuxieman lounging around the house, and on the Catio.  Sylvester delighted in being outdoors, if the weather was fine he'd snooze for hours in the sun, baking.  I'll never forget his wonder the first time he explored the Catio--we don't think he'd ever been "outdoors" before.

He had the best set of "Bat Signal" ears, and a musical meow.  He wasn't terribly talkative, but he always was good for a "Bless You"...inevitably (if he heard us) he'd pllrrrowl after a sneeze.

He was a good sport...

...and he put up with our shenanigans with good humor.

Sylvester wasn't much for toys, but he adored his Spotted Red Mousie, which was his toy.  I saved Mr. Mousie to put with Sly's ashes...it seemed right.

Our big guy was a big fan of chicken, bacon, steak, ham, tuna, salmon, mackerel...it took a lot of food to maintain his 20 pound figure!

Catnip was essential as well.

Most of all, Sylvester loved his Daddy.  The two of them spent hours together every day, "working" in the office.  Sly was tolerant of my loving on him, but his Daddy could maul him and he'd come running back for more.  Although *I* was the only one allowed to Touch his tummy--but only in the bathroom on the rug--and only if he requested it.

We are so happy that we adopted him.  

The past six years have been a joy.

Farewell, sweet boy.

We love you, always.

I don't usually sit in laps, I'm more of a snuggle-up-next-to-you type of kitteh, but Daddy has been on vacation this week and I got a little lonely decided Mommy needed some attention.

Any port in a storm, right?

Flirty

Kitties!

May Ling here.

One of my favorite things to do is lounge on the chair, lurking and laying in wait for a hapless human to wander by.

And when they do, I streeeeeeeeetch way out.

Sometimes I get lucky and snag a leg...

...and then I turn on the flirt for some pettings.  Works every. single. time.

 Because I'm just that cute.

Happy Thursday!

Johnson to the Rescue!

Kitties!

Tiny Johnson here.

Guess what?  I found this sad and lonely Leopard Binky slouching on the sofa--she was softly weeping--something about being thrown over by a callous Ornj (named Fewith?--it was hard to tell) in favor of some Catmoflage Hussy. What was I to do but comfort her?

I settled in and started a nice bath...Miss L. Binky was Most Accomodating, and oh so cozy.

I've to the conclusion that this Fewith character must be an utter cad to desert such a wonderful, warm, kootchy Binky!

This may be love...

Nobody else better move in on my girl; I'm keeping a close look out for any interlopers, whatsoever.

Happy Wednesday!

Stop the Presses!

Kitties!

Felix here, with breaking news:

Item 1.  We are BACK to blogging!

Item 2.  Mommy had a wonderful time on her trip back to her hometown--Elgin, Illinois--and we enjoyed Daddy spoiling us rotten (er).

Item 3.  It has been alleged that I have been stepping out on my Leopard Binky,  This is a LIE!  The photo below is completely construed and does not constitute concrete evidence, nosiree, not at all.

I unequivocally deny that I am all warm and cozy (and snoring--ed.) on the camouflage fleece...I swear to Cod--it's been photoshopped!

Really.

Happy Tuesday!

And The Most Creative Comment Award Goes to...

Kitties!  

Felix here.

whatchoo lookin' at?

In yesterday's post I mentioned my Fave Binky, whereupon Mommy blathered some nonsense made an educated guess about me-n-Binky being Secretly Wedded, which sparked one of the best comments we've ever received from Andrea, Mommy to the Celestial Kitties.  Here it is:

Secretly wedded! I wonder how that ceremony went.. The Baby, as flower girl, sprinkles kitty litter down the aisle as the other kitties sing the wedding song "Meow mow meowmow, meow mow meowmow." The groom drags his bride down the cat food aisle where they are joined forever by Reverend Tiny Johnson. The vows are traditional, "Will you, Felix, take Leopard Binky to be your wedded blankey, to have and to hold, to snuggle and yak on, in hot times and the rare cold desert days, until death or complete shredding do you part." The ceremony ends with (read nothing into this) Salem singing the song made famous by Billie Jo Spears "Blanket on the Ground". The reception is wild, but the bride and groom disappear early to be later found snuggling under the present table. Sigh, so romantic! (I think I need sleep.) 

Well, I have only one thing to say to this--Andrea, how did you KNOW?????

'Cos that's exactly how it happened...

go 'way!

Now, if you'll excuse me, it's time for my elebenteenth honeymoon...

Happy Tuesday!

My New Spot

Kitties!

Felix here.

I have a New Spot to sleep!

It's the top corner cushion of the sofa, above where Daddy sits.  I adore it.  Mommy saw me snoozing up here and--she is so awesome--she went and got my all time favorite binky for me to snuggle into.

Well...snuggle into after I finally decide to get up!

Happy Monday!

XX  Felix  XX

The Mommy here:  Felix is extremely weird quite catlike in his sleeping habits; he will choose a new place every few weeks, be totally devoted to it, then later shun it like it never existed.  One thing is a constant though--the leopard binky is numero uno in his eyes!  My current theory is that they are secretly wedded.

A Purrfect Caturday

Kitties!

Tiny Johnson is a regular Cat Magnet.

Rupert loves to nip and pester him into playing.

CC simply loves him.

And all three enjoy spending time together:

(Please ignore the aluminum pan, it was a windy day and it blew away from the grill.  It was TOTAL bonus, though--there were chicken and steak drippings in it!)

There's nothing quite as nice as a brofur.

Happy Caturday!

Unbelievable Cuteness

Kitties!

The Mommy here.

I was puttering around in the bedroom and saw this through the sliding glass door:

Naturally I snuck outside--quiet as a mouse--to get a quick photo of the love fest.

Earlier, I'd seen Scouty up on one of the ramps, and Johnny sacked out on the bottom of the blue tree, solo.  Apparently that didn't last! They were adorable; when Scouty snuggled up and Johnny lifted up his arm to hug him I nearly expired from Teh Cute.

Nothing as heartwarming as love.

Happy Friday!

Servant Sunday Selfie

Kitties!

Felix here, in a Sunday Selfie with my Bestest Friend In the Whole Wide World, Auntie Barbara.

Contrary to the look on my face, I LOVE her.  Those other two mooks people who live here and callously abandoned me went on holiday can go take a long walk off a short pier as far as I'm concerned.  Auntie Barbara rocks.

Just look how well she took care of us: 

The red dates indicate a completed chore delightful service rendered...and the chewed corners are courtesy of yours truly.  "Tea Days" means we got extra food, in case you were wondering!

Auntie B left Saturday morning and I was a pathetic Ornj sad sack bit depressed about it, but she promised to come back.  I can hardly wait!  We all had a wonderful time being catsat, and until she returns we'll just have to make do with the mooks.

Happy Sunday!

Another Tuesday Evening on the Sofa

Kitties!

The Mommy here.

Since I work evenings, me and the kittehs really treasure our evening couch surfing time on my days off.  After dinner I put on my jammies, get out a fresh snuggling blanket Cat Trap™, a cuppa joe and a donut (my grocery shopping reward) and settle in.  

Before long the trap springs:

The Baby!

After a nice satisfying Sucky Dance she scootles in, just in time for victim number two:

Rupert!

He prefers prime lappage area.  Making it hard to type.

And to the right of my maple-frosted donut is: 

May Ling!

Who likes cool vinyl against her undercarriage instead of the blanket--also, she's CATegorically opposed to sleeping next to any of the Lesser Cats*.

I sure wish I could spend every evening like this...come on, retirement!

Happy Wednesday!

*which would be ALL of them.

Love Both Ways

Kitties!

Sweet Pea here.

I love to snuggle with my brofur Rupert.

Rupert:  Arggh!  Here she comes, yet again, argy-bargying in on my purrsonal space.

Sweet Pea:  I'd better spiff up first... 

Rupert:  Now she's sticking her bum in my face!  

Sweet Pea:  Time to find just the right spot... 

Rupert:  SETTLE DOWN, for Cod's sake.  Can't you see I'm trying to nap?

Sweet Pea:  Ahhh, this is just right.  I love you, Rupert, you're such a nice brofur. 

Rupert:  Aw, you're not so bad yourself, Miss Pea.

And harmony reigned, for quite some time, actually.*

Happy Cuddling Caturday!

*Until the inevitable head-washing, ear-biting, and rousing game of swatty-paws and chase ensued!
