Bullet - Dodged

Thank you Cod for keeping our house baby-dog free. I'm sure that your joining me yesterday in a moment of kitten and dog free silence did the trick friends. We dodged the darling puppy bullet.

As many of you suggested, I tried to delete the email but I'm forbidden (ha!) from getting on the desk - maybe it's because of the winning bid I placed on e-bay for my Hot Wheel when I ran across the mouse?

Anyway I didn't make it in time, Dad saw "That Doggy in the Window" and luckily he did not ask how much it was. He agreed the dog was cute but that was all he said. Mom didn't say anything more either.

My dog-free silence is still golden.

Now on the kitten front, I still have my concerns. Of course I have to hold my purrs every time Mom heads off to Petsmart lest she sees a darling cat. She often cheats on me and comes home with foreign cat hair, but I look the other way.Go ahead get a quick snuggle if you need to, just come home alone I say.

Mom walked out onto the porch this morning and came running back in to report that not only was Mittens out there, but that he appeared to be chumming it up with a "Chubby Tabby." Now he's inviting guests over!

Mom suddenly clapped her hands together and squealed out "Maybe the Tabby is chubby with kittens?!" This next part was squealed at a decibel only a dog could hear "Maybe Mittens is going to be a father and have the kittens in the yard!" Then she looked off wistfully and said "If the universe delivered kittens into my yard, surely I would be able to keep one... or two."

Time to bow our heads again friends...

  2. oh oh Fin.
    She's got the baby fever real bad. Puppies, kittens, whatever....when they get the baby fever their brains go totally spongy.

    We are on to the pill pockets ruse. So the only way it gets down the hatch effectively is the pill shooter.

  3. Fin.
    Fin, Fin, Fin.
    You need to do something drastic!
    If only we could think of what.

    Kitten fever is cured in only ONE way. With a kitten!

    *sigh*

  4. Poor Fin. I dodged a bullet two years ago when my mom went to a cat show. I don't know if my mom can be that strong again if she sees more Persian kittens.

  5. Uh-oh. Kittens. Oh, yah, they're cute. But they never stop moving! You would be so exhausted.

  6. Kittens! You know what, we've never had kittens here so we don't know what they are like. We imagine they are like Kenji in his crazy mood, only they probably would be like that ALL THE TIME. We might mistake it for a furball we yacked up. Mawhawhaw!
    You know our Mummy and Daddy. They are weak as anything, you never know when another kitty shows up in our place...
    Purrrrr

  7. Miss Fin, we're thinking if you got a BOOTIFUL sister we would TOTALLY not object... of course you'd still be the most bootiful girl of the house to us...

  9. Oh Fin, your human has gone bonkers! She is barely making any sense! If my human was talking such silly nonsense, I would slap some sense into her!

  11. Fin, do I need to start a petition begging your mum NOT to get a kitten?

  12. We're sorry Fin, but we don't think you can dodge the bullet twice....the odds are against you.

  13. We're sending big purrs that the tabby is just fat!

    ReplyDelete
  14. We're purring that it's just an excess of fancy feast in that tabby belly!

    If it's kittens AND they get delivered in your yard...I think it's over Fin. You can't fight the forces of the universe.

  15. We will keep our paws crossed for you Fin, but you would make a wonderful GrannyCat!

  16. Oh no Fin - could you arrange for Chubby Tabby to go on a long expenses paid holiday a long way away.

  17. Fin, I have my paws crossed for you and hope that your mom isn't like mine who wants to have a zoo in the house. Best of luck!!! Lots of love, Holly and mom

  18. Uh oh. Baby kittens are a much, much bigger threat, we think. Keep your paws crossed.

    ReplyDelete
  19. MOL~!!! Well at least one bullet has been dodged.

  20. Whew. That cute little sibe was a close one. My human bean likes dogs, but I am not so sure about them. Especially the young peppy ones that chase you around.

  21. Oh dear Fin, there isn't muchj hope if the kittens are born in the yard. We wish you luck that she doesn't keep one of them Maybe Tabby is just chubby. Take care and we will keep our fingers crossed that you remain an only cat.

  22. Oh Fin it's a minefield around your house!!!

    My boys don't know yet that Ash is coming to live with us, but I hope they will be happy about it :-)

  23. Fin, my Mommeh sighs wistfully when she sees kittens, too!

  24. Fin that is just a mom thing - they all get loopy about little kittens. You just need to remind her that you are the only one she needs. And if that doesn't work, do stuff to remind her how much extra work there would be with a kitten or two more!

    ReplyDelete
  25. Oh FIN! I will hold your paw and hope with you that your mom and dad just look and don't touch! BUT if it happens another kitty comes to live with you, you'll be the boss and BIG brofur!

  26. Phew, Fin!!!

    Dodging a bullet is right!!! GG invited a dog over for a dinner party one night at the townhouse and I'm still recovering from the mental anguish. PDS Syndrome, I tell you! (Post-Dogmatic Stress Syndrome)

    Good luck on the cat front. Paws crossed in silence.

  27. oh my... maybe start leaving spay/neuter information around the house. No need to encourage some red light district outside, right?
