Neighborhood Snoopervisor

Here's my favorite perch these last few days and evenings. It has been very hot in the city. I like it when the windows are open and I can keep track of what all the people and animals on my block are doing. There is also a wild string on the side of the window that I have to whap into obedience when the wind blows too!

I'm Chillin'

I've been doing lots of napping between ribbon whapping sessions. Also there is a rooster in the neighborhood who wakes me up too early, so I need extra naps. Also I am yowling right now because the Food Dude is not set up for me to lie down on him correctly. Should I whap him?

My Favorite Toy

Here I am on my deck. You can see my new toy in front of me. It is called Ribbon. I love to whap the Ribbon whenever I can. I am waiting for the Food Lady to pick up the Ribbon so I can whap it. Hurry up, Food Lady!

Purrs Needed and We Had a Visitor

Sweet Violette, a much loved child, lost her life today. Please send every purr and prayer possible to Violette and her family. That is what we are doing.

Surprise! Beezer teleported over and brought his Expert Tech Person to help my Tech Dunce Food Lady. The Tech Expert was a mighty expert indeed. Thank God someone helped her. This blog was the technological equivalent (and that phrase assumes alot) of the ocean bottom of the entire cat blogosphere.

Food Dude Follies

The Food Dude has gone away for a few days. He likes to climb and camp in places like this. Why would he want to do that when he has me?

The Food Lady is much smarter. She lets the Food Dude climb these places and bring the pictures home for her so she can laugh at them. She says the Food Dude might run into my giant cousins called Mountain Lion. Just in case he does, I sneaked a bag of catnip in his back pack pouch. This way my cousin will be able to find him!


The Food Lady told me she is having an important meeting with another member of the Catblogosphere soon! I'm hoping she will learn how to make my blog better. But since she is such a Tech Dunce, we'll see.

The Food Lady Was Very Bad

The Food Lady was very, very bad. She went away again, for four whole days. I was very upset. I yowled at the Food Dude. I woke him up by doing somersaults on him in the middle of the night because she wasn't in bed too. I refused the pill I have to take every day. And I complained constantly.



When the Food Lady came back, she told me she visited an old friend who had two brand new kitties. They came from the pound. Her friend saved them. One of the little kitties is named Blaze. He looks like Skeezix but he has a blaze on his forehead. Blaze was very sick and needed to go to the hospital. I was mad that the Food Lady went away and visited more kitties! But when I heard that Blaze was sick and needed some extra People purrs, I decided it was ok. But only for a few hours! Blaze went to the V E T and is doing fine now.




Anyway, I was so mad at the Food Lady that I made her fall asleep on the couch so I could sit on her so she couldn't leave again. See? It worked. She stayed on the couch for a long time and made me nice and toasty!



Mr. Hendrix tagged me for a meme. It is the 4 things about me meme. By the way, Mr. Hendrix is a bit sicky right now, so please stop by his blog and send him some love and healing purrs. You can find him at http://mrhendrixthekitty.blogspot.com/. (PS - Would some kind kitty or person please email my tech dunce Food Lady and tell her how to do the thingie where she puts your blog name in the linkie instead of the actual linkie. I have concluded she is the biggest tech dunce in the entire cat universe. You can write her at my email address: HalloweenTheCat@gmail.com

My People Are Under Control

Well, it took a week, but I finally have my people under control. Here is the Food Dude, sleeping under me after I made him behave. It has been like this since they got back. Re-training People is hard. I am bushed!



Thanks for all the suggestions from my friends about asserting cat authority. You were a big help.


Paws, Halloween

My People Are Home

My People came home last night. They were gone for two weeks. They visited the Great Lakes. And they came home with this picture of another cat! His name is Hobbs. They say he is my cousin cat who lives in Milwaukee. What an insult! They stay away for two weeks and visit another cat. Hobbs apparently smelled my catnip on the Food Lady's shoes and rolled against them. I will give the shoes a special treatment when no one is looking!

I am an angry cat. I got very mad at the People when they got home last night. I yelled at them all night long and wouldn't let them go to sleep until they provided sufficient cat adoration. Now I am just sitting outside the back door and won't come inside in order to punish the People. Plus, just now I looked in my stinky goodness bowl and the contents are unacceptable. Things have fallen to a new low around here. I have my work cut out for me. Gotta go - time to yowl. And maybe scratch too!

Where's My Cat Butler?

Here I am, waiting at the back door for my cat butler! Yes, a cat door is open and available for use, but why scrunch down and mess up my beautiful coat when there are cat butlers walking around in the house, awaiting my every command. I just stand here and stare at the people, and send telepathic messages to them wherever they are inside the house. I make them look at the back deck and see that the door needs to be opened for me.

I put this post up on my blog so that the G-lady who is coming to be cat butler for the next two weeks remembers who is boss around here. I hope she likes the same television shows that I do!

The weather here is really rotten right now. There's a thousand wildfires burning around northern California. Going outside is like inhaling a campfire. The smoke makes me cough. All the more reason for the cat butler to let me in right away!

Oh No! People Vacation!

There's no picture of me for this post because I have gone into hiding. My People are leaving for a vacation. They are going to the Mitten State, but first have to fly into Shytown. They promised to wave to Cheeto and Rosie for me. After the Mitten State, they are going to the state where zippy, sadie and speedy live. They promised to wave to them for me too!


The Food Lady and the Food Dude, and Ryan, are my People. I asked them to send Ryan home from college to stay with me, but he is too busy working (maybe so he can send me temptations!) so he can't stay here. Hmmm.


One time when they went away, the person who promised to stay here only came for a few days. When the Food Lady came home, she found me crying under her bed. Even if I am not fond of other people, at least one or two should stay here and fulfill all of my tortietude demands. I can ignore them the rest of the time.


They told me the G-lady is going to stay here. I actually tolerate the G-lady. She is tortie friendly. She lets me sleep on her. She gives me temptations and is a good door butler, as I often don't care to use the cat door but insist that the people door be opened for me instead. The G-lady is nice about that. So maybe I will live. But the People will pay when they return!
