Floofy Friday

I look rather pensive here don't I?


Ah, this is more like it for a fine Floofy Friday...

We have some family visiting this weekend, so I'll be back with a post on Tuesday.
I hope you all have a great weekend!

Gardening Cat


My great friend Jonesie from Cory Cat is a Master Gardening Cat and has started the Society of Feline Gardeners for other gardening cats. I was so excited to join. Jonesie let me in of course, but I think she might have wondered what I would be gardening in my desert oasis.

We have some plant life here at the house of the pointy rocks. Here is a little fella at the back of the yard. It takes a lot of bravery on my part to cross over to inspect his growth, but a desert garden cat does what she needs to.

Smells right, good job.

I'm not completely pleased with this little plant as you can see here.


I'm not too worried though, I know it's doing it's best.

Fin Pockets

As promised, here is a photo of my new treats.

As you can see, they're called "Fin Pockets" by Greenies. What a coincidence, right? Mom says it's why she bought them for me from Petsmart. I like the Chick-Hen flavor.

My parents always seem so excited when I eat them too. I have no idea why. Humans can be so odd. Hope you enjoy your Fin Pockets friends.

Dinner

Num-a, Num-a, Num, Num

Beef!


It's what's for Dinner!

Here is another example of Mom's elusive humor. Something about this being the tag line for some meat commercial.

For me, I'm just excited that my Fancy Crack with Gravy is back on the menu. I was so tired of that senior kitizen food in chick-hen flavor. I'm still enjoying my special treats twice a day. I will get Mom to show them tomorrow. I feel better all the time, and without any silly pills I might add! What are you eating for dinner friends?

PurrFurmance Review

My clever friends at Zoolatry have suggested that all blogging cats give their human staff a Purrfurmance Review.Review Of: Mom
Reviewed By: Fin

Quantity of Output: I really can't complain here. Most weeks she manages to get in four to five posts, and everyone needs a little time off. Four Paws

Quality of Output: I would give her a good mark here too. Naturally the photos are good, she has quality to work with in her muse after all. Sometimes even I think she's funny, but then other times she giggles away while typing and I have no idea why she thinks something is funny. You'll see what I mean on the next few posts she's planned this week. Four Paws.

Participation: We do share an email and allow comments... all good there. She did get me a Twitter account and a Catster page but her update of said pages is spotty at best. Three to Two Paws

Participation II: Mom is pretty good about participating in fun activities on the web and even comes up with some fun ideas for our blog. I will give her Four Paws.

Client Satisfaction: Well I hope all of you are pleased, but if you feel she is slacking in any way please comment.

Bonus Category: Commenting - She does a solid job reading my friends blogs. She has tried to keep up with commenting over at my friends places but I may need to have her cut back a bit. The holidays are going to be busy and I need to make sure my snuggle and chin scritch needs are met.

Overall I think I'll keep her. I can be a tough task master at times but it's for her own good.

Floofy Friday


Hi Friends. It's been a busy week here at casa de housecat. I think we're all looking forward to the weekend. I'm looking forward to some quality porch time. I plan on working on Mom's Purrformance Review.

I think she is a bit nervous because she called a little meeting to start planning some of the fun things we want to do in the next few months. I have to admit they do sound like fun (but I won't be giving her a free pass). What's first?

  • Hunt Week - A week highlighting all the ways a housecat can still hunt in the suburban wilds. I am a pacifist, so my prey is a bit different than what you might think. Mom is squeamish and also a pacifist, so there won't be any killing. If anyone has a preference for when Hunt Week might take place, please let us know.We are thinking early December?

My Car

Coming...


And going...


Yesterday I mentioned that Dad has sold some Hot Wheels on EBay, but I didn't tell you that I bought one from another seller. Dad had been looking at a car on EBay and had the mouse hovering over the Bid button as he decided if he should make a bid. I really liked the little car, so I distracted him and then ran on top of the mouse, placing my winning bid. At the time Dad had no idea why I wanted the little car, but he sure does now. What car would a grannycat want for her own, you might ask?


A metallic brown Hot Wheel Torero. It's very sporty.

Hot Wheels!

So the other night I was chillin in the hallway when I heard Dad making noises in the living room. I decided I needed to investigate and look what it was friends.

Hot Wheels with a snappy orange track. Dad laughed and laughed when I ran from the hallway and started a whappin. We even made a little game of it. If I whapped the car off the track, I won the round. We kept playing well into the night. It was so fun.

Dad called this cheating...

I call it clever.

Dad has been selling some of his old Hot Wheels on EBay, but I'm glad the Titan of Tiny Cars kept this track and enough cars to keep a grannycat busy for hours of fun.

Floofy Friday

Because I think so much of you all,

here's another glamour shot

I hope you have an excellent weekend friends. I plan to lounge in my yard at every possible turn. A few minutes on the hot rocks and then a cool off on the shady ones. Oh, and the flock of Tweets that disturbed me the other day will not be welcome.

Dona Nobis Pacem

Today, all around the world, bloggers will post the title listed above and a globe shown below and write about piece. I'm not sure what we're all trying to get a piece of, but it's got to be something great right?

Alright I am kidding... I know it's not piece, or peas, it's Peace. Peace is something every living being should want a piece of. So on this day, and then on the one after this, and so on, please do what you can to bring peace to the world. We can't always change the rest world, but we can change ourselves.

Wordless Wednesday

Bird? Plane?
