The Infamous Late Night Wedding

You know, the one my Meowmi made me stay up until 3am to watch. She said it was being televised from the other side of the world. Meowzers! Well, it was pretty, but luckily it wasn't long before Meowmi picked me up to take me to bed.

But today is a day to catch up on that much-needed sleep that I didn't get last night. Missing three hours means I have to nap at least six more hours today to make up for it!

mmmmmmm, catnap....mmmmmm. *purrr

On Billy Collins' Poetry

Meowmi came across his poetry this evening and couldn't help but to share it.....

A Dog on his Master

As young as I look,
I am growing older faster than he,
seven to one
is the ratio they tend to say.

Whatever the number,
I will pass him one day
and take the lead
the way I do on our walks in the woods.

And if this ever manages
to cross his mind,
it would be the sweetest
shadow I have ever cast on snow or grass.

goodnight and sweet dreams!

The Love of a Ninja...

So sometimes I have to have cuddle time. Okay, a lot of the time. And when that happens, I can't get enough sandpaper kisses from my meowmi. Below is a pictured illustration of how my cuddle time goes normally...

I like to have the air of flippancy when I first sit down on Meowmi's lap, to achieve an effect of not caring whether she pets me or not. It usually works in getting her to pet me lots.

I like to watch the tv with Meowmi sometimes, especially if it is a gardening or animal show.
I like nature lots.

Sometimes Meowmi goes extra scratchy near my ears, where I like it most.

And if she gets distracted by a particularly eye-catching commercial or something, I nicely remind her to continue petting me with some well-timed licks and kisses.

Here's a close-up of my tongue. The photo's a little blurry because You have to act fast to catch my tongue in action.

Ah, best location for a nap....

Sunnin'

One of my very favorite pasttimes is to sun myself. That is, I find a nice place near the window where the sun is floating in and lay very quietly to catch as much sun as possible. It is a talent.

As seen here....

                                                     Don't interrupt my bathtime...

                                                                    or my naptime....

 

I see you taking photos, Meowmi, 

and I'm not happy about it...

                                   Fine, the sun is better out on the balcony anyway.....

Ninja Skills

As you can see....
I'm not up to anything out of the ordinary.  Just going about my usual business...

But the very second Meowmi isn't looking....

that water's ALL MINE!!!

Scratching Paddddd

So meowmi bought me a scratch pad when she first brought me home. And the best part about it is that it smells like catnip!!
Although I use the thing occassionally to sharpen my already perfect and beautiful claws, I mostly use it as a nice layabout pad. The catnip scent relaxes me. Plus the locale of the scratchpad allows me a perfect view of the whole apartment!
Check me out while I lay.....

mousertimmmmme!

My favorite game is mousertime. Mousertime is all about catchin' that mouse. Sometimes it goes vrooooom really fast on the floor, sometimes it flies up in the air and I have to jump up to catch it. But Catch it I do!
Sometimes mousertime is really shoestring time. Shoelaces are just as fun to catch as my mousies that smell like catnip. Sometimes laces can be faster though, so I have to run really fast to catch it. But Catch it I do!
You wanna see a video of me catching it?

~^. .^~ *ppppuuuuuuuuuurrrrrrrr
Here it is! (blink and you miss me I'm so fast)

and some pictures!

 

closeup of my paw on shoestring!

 sniffing the string to make sure it's dead....

 it's still moving!!!!

Don't play with me. I'll catch you!

Meowmi made me this...

So I've begged and pleaded becuase a Twitter page wasn't enough, and meowmi finally caved! I have my own blog page now! Whoot Whooot Whoot!

I'm so excited I'm gonna zoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmm!

Here's a photo of me playing from the other day.
