A Feast

Smells like there's going to be a good cat feast tonight! I am waiting at my spot for it to happen.

The people went to the farmer's market and came back with these flowers.

Later on, the Food Dude made this tomato salad. He even picked the orange tomatoes from the front of the house. The people are always talking about their tomato plants!

Best of all, the Food Lady made this Chicken!!!! As you can see, the pig is giving his enthusiastic approval behind the chicken. Ahhh, chicken. I ate many bites of this chicken tonight. I am a lucky cat. There will be more later.

The people also ate this. It is called homemade peach crisp. The peaches also came from the farmer's market. The people liked this a lot. Who cares about peaches - more chicken!!!

San Francisco

Here is a tiny pic of the view of San Francisco from the hill behind my house. I hope you enjoy it. You will need great eyes or a magnifying glass to see all the details. The Tech Dunce tried to biggify the picture, and as usual, failed. Blame her.

Visit to the Groomer!

I'm staying at the bottom of the stairs right now. As you can see, I am using my laser eyes to get my point across.

I stayed here for a while tonight. The People kept saying I was filled with mats. I don't know what they were talking about. All I do know is that I was forced into the cat carrying box and put in the car. I hate the box and I hate the car even more. I thought I was going to the V E T.

Nope. They took me to this lady who cleaned me up and combed my coat so it is very smooth, silky, and easy to comb. It feels much better. But don't tell my People because I am going to make them feel guilty for putting me in the box for as long as I can. That's why I'm hangin' at the bottom of the stairs. They tried to pet me but I ran down here. When they started walking down the stairs, I ran under a bed. I let them take these pictures so they would remember how angry I am about this whole situation.

Later on, the stinky goodness and treats I got were quite good!

Bandit Visitors & Cat Furniture

Here are some visitors I just had on the back deck tonight! They tried to come in the cat door. I think they were trying to steal my stinky goodness! The People shut the door but the bandits stuck around to have their pictures taken. They are not very smart bandits, are they?

Here I am, sitting on the best piece of cat furniture in the house. The People went away for a long time and they left me with some person who was supposed to take care of me. I am still mad! They will pay for going away for a long time.

The person who stayed here did not understand cat adoration. He did not know how to play with the cat toys correctly. He did not know how to heat up my stinky goodness to just the right temperature. He did not understand cat talk. Arrgh.

Since the People came home, I have been sitting on this piece of cat furniture every chance I get. If the Food Dude sits anywhere else, I complain long and loudly until he is in the cat furniture position. What else could he possibly be doing that is more important?

As for the Food Lady, when she sits at the computer too long, I get up on my back legs and put my front paws on her, and jump up on her lap. First I see if she is working on the blog for me, or checking the other cat blogs. Obviously, she has not been keeping up with these tasks. So I sit on her and make her pay attention to me. She says I am very "clingy". Ha. The Food Lady hasn't seen clingy yet!

So, I'm re-training the People. What have all of you been doing? Concatulations to Mr. Hendrix http://mrhendrixthekitty.blogspot.com/ and his People for their new arrival!

What Is Michigan????

I am just wondering - what is a Michigan? Or is it Mishagun? The people are talking about it all the time these days. Last year they talked about it and they said funny words like "Yooper" and "U - P" and "Markette" and "Kal - a - ma - zoo". What is a superior lake? Or a michigan lake? I don't know. None of these words sounded like "cat treats". Can anyone help?

Last year after they said these words they left me with someone else. Not acceptable!!!

Summer Saturday

Hi kitties and people. I haven't been posting much because the Food Dude and Food Lady have been sick. They made the cough-cough-cough sound. They slept in bed alot. They put little thingies in their mouths and said, "I have a fever!" They ate special Mexican chicken noodle soup, made by the Food Dude, called Fideos. I sat on them and kept them warm. The Food Lady had to go to the hospital because she got so sick, but she came home and took little pills that made her feel better. Since they were feeling better this morning, they went to the farmer's market and bought some things.

They brought home these pretty sunflowers.

And they brought home blueberries and blackberries. The Food Lady made a blueberry crisp. Here it is, just out of the oven. The pig and bunny look like they are going to jump right into the crisp and eat it up all up, don't they? I'm waiting to see what they brought home for me!

(Almost) Wordless Wednesday

Biggify me (please!).

My Baby Picture

Well, the tech dunce Food Lady found this picture of me when I first came to live with her, the Food Dude and Ryan who found me. Can you tell which kitten is me? This is way back in 1992! The Food Lady can't figure out how to biggify the picture so you can see me in all of my adorable kitty glory. I'm in there. So is my sister August, who lives two doors away. My feral mama kitty is in there, and so is my brother Psycho. One littermate is missing - Harley. He must have been around somewhere else in the yard. We are sitting on the back deck. We used to have contests to see which one of us could climb up the highest on the screen door. August usually won. I was the smallest kitten and that is why I came to live here. Mama kitty was very sick when she brought us to live in the back yard.

Here is a picture of Ryan Who Found Me. He was just 5 years old when he woke up one morning, looked outside and yelled, "Look at all the kitties!!" He is older now. He is sitting with his friend Savina. Savina loves cats too. Savina is visiting all the way from Bulgaria. She came to San Francisco just to visit me, but she seems to spend most of her time with Ryan. I don't know why!

My mama kitty picked a good place for me to live.
