Day One

Even with fog (yes fog in the desert) to hamper my view of the sunrise, I'm told I woke Mom at 5:33am. Two minutes prior to when the Hated Noisy Box (Cod Rest it's Sole) would have gone off.

Pretty impressive if I have to say so myself. To my surprise, instead of the usual "Oh come on! Do you know what time it is?" that I'm usually greeted with, I got "Hey, do you have a snooze button?" Followed by some quality pets, as Mom really did to try find the snooze button I think.

Some of my friends suspected I had a paw in the breaking of said box, no I didn't actually. I suspect it was Mom whacking it in an effort to find the snooze button over the years. Hm maybe I should make it clear I don't have a snooze button...

  3. Hello Fin! We Luisella, Pepe, Mei and Dorino, the gardeners of our mother cat Josie! You know you're very nice? But I think that even your mom is nice, and it will be great fun to read your blog!
    Hey Fin, we live in Tuscany, Italy and our passion is to help mom in jobs in the garden .. we try to make them understand how to arrange the plants and how deep the holes need to be .. for now she does not appreciate a lot, so she run after us .. but we see her laughing in his sleeve! Hello!

  15. Good job on filling in for the alarm clock, Fin! We hope you didn't buzz like the hated noisy box....

  16. What a great job you did Fin, woke up Mom right on time. Our snooze button is when mom pats us and we curl up next to her and let her go back to sleep. It is so nice a cozy and warm to do that. But then we have to wake her up again.

  17. My mommy says I don't have a snooze button at all. I have a purr button though that activates when I walk up to her sleeping face and bat her bangs with my front paw. I purr while doing that in case she wakes (she always seems to) up..I want a smile..not a frown. Who can frown with purring in their ears?

  18. Hope she doesn't bother to get a new noisy box!

  20. Very impressive Fin! They do say cats have a built in clock to know what time things are supposed to happen - I guess you proved that true!

  21. Very good Fin. You make a good waker upper. Be careful you don't get lots of whaps on the head when your mum is looking for the snooze button though.

  23. Better watch out for those snooze reflexes: some serious whapping can be involved there.
