Playing With Bob

Yesterday while Bob was getting ready for work, I walked in the door and half way up to him, then I turned and ran back to the door. At the door I looked over my shoulder and said chase me Bob and he chased me all over the living room, then I let him catch me and he gave me bunches of pets and cuddles. I love playing chase.

*smile*

Playing Chase

Today when Bob got on the computer, I came in and got on his desk to ask him to post for me. Frostin postst every morning, but I'm kind of shy so I only post every once in a while. Last night I had bunches of fun. Munchkin, Frostin and I were all playing chase, and then Bob joined in on the game. We all had a blast.

Guard Cat

Here I am fiercly guarding the computer room door while Bob plays on the computer. You never know what kind of monster might decide to sneak in and try to get him.

Sitting With Monika

The other day I sat in Monika's lap and watched TV with her for a while. She was very happy, because I usually only sit in Bob's lap.

Saturday, May 16, 2009

Sitting Pretty

Bob calls this pose sitting pretty. I call it patiently waiting for my treats, or attentions, or whatever else I want at the moment.

Loud Uncle

Our Uncle Robert came over last night, but he had the noisy outside monster that eats grass with him, so all of us kitties went into hiding.

Saturday, April 18, 2009

Calling Bob

This morning Monika called Bob and when they were done talking she switched the phone to speaker so he could talk to me. I snuggled up to the phone and rubbed my forehead on it because I know he likes to do that with me. I don't know if he could feel it through the phone, but Monika told him just in case and he told me that he did foreheads backs to me.

Traveling Pet

Bob is going to Monika's parents house this weekend to watch our cousin kitties while they go to visit Monika's brother.

This is good because it means that we get to have Monika all to ourselves.

*smile*

They're Back

I knew they wouldn't stay gone long.

*smile*

Saturday, April 11, 2009

Meandering Pets

Bob and Monika have left for the weekend again. It has been a while since they have done so though, so I guess we will let them get away with it. This time.

Trying to Nap

Yesterday, while King Obsidian and I were trying to take a nap on our pets bed, Bob came in and took us off and then he took all the covers off to wash them.
About an hour later we went back and explored the bed and after about half an hour of doing biscuits all over it we decided it was OK to go back to our naps.
Then about half an hour after that he came and took us back off the bed and put all the covers back on. When he was done he put each of us back on the bed, but we had to go and do biscuits all over again to get it fully nap worthy.

Rude Awakening

When the alarm went off this morning, Monika was already up so I ran up to the clock radio to try to figure out how to turn it off. Bob rolled over to it and turned on the light at the same time, So I just turned to him and said; "Shut that noisy thing off!" I'm so glad our humans are well trained.


*smile*

Sleeping Comfortably

Last night I rediscovered a old favorite sleeping place. I curled up on Bob's pillow at the top of his head. He turned his head and it touched my foot, so he woke up a little and gave me pets. Then he thanked me for sleeping their and said that he missed having me up there when he sleeps.


*smile*

Saturday, March 21, 2009

Well Informed Princess

Monika has discovered that I like watching the new on the television. She even came into the TV room and put it on just for me this morning.

*smile*

Happy St Patrick's Day


From all of us to all of you;
Hope you all have a wonderful St Patrick's Day

Sleeping With Our Pets

Last night I climbed up onto the bed and curled up next to Monika to sleep. She was very surprised because I usually sleep on the body pillow by the window when both of our pets are sleeping. But if only one pet is sleeping it is great fun for us to lay down all around it and pin it to the bed.
*smile*

Scared Princess

Bob and Monika left together yesterday and I got afraid because I thought I was being abandoned again. Then about 20 minutes later Bob came back home and saw me sitting behind the couch and looking at the door with tears in my eyes and he came over and gave me hugs. Then he put me on my couch and started giving me pets and kisses and told me that I never had to worry about being abandoned again. That he and Monika would always come back.

Yucky Smelly

I missed Bob while he was at work today so I gave him my best pouty face, then ran and jumped on the couch so he could sit in front of it and give me pets and cuddles without picking me up. He started with kissing my forehead and giving me long pets down my back, then switched to giving me ear rubs and that's when I smelled it. He has to wear rubber gloves at work and they make his hands smell yucky. I forgot to let him wash his hands first and now I have rubber glove smellies all over my poor furs!

Monika's Back!

Monika is back, but she is still sore from her surgery so I am keeping a close watch over her. I can't wait until she is well enough to pay my belly tolls again. I miss them a lot. Bob picked me up like a baby and brought me to her so she could rub my belly, but it just wasn't the same.

Thursday, February 12, 2009

Missing Monika

Bob called Monika and put her on speaker phone so all of us kitties could hear her. I rubbed all over the phone while she was talking to me. She said she missed all us kitties and that she hoped she would be home soon. Then later last night I heard the door into the garage open and I was so excited because I thought Monika was home. I came running as fast as I could, but it was just Bob putting a soda can in the recycle bin.

Canthro's Bulletin Board



Bob has a new blog. It is to advertise web based businesses or businesses with a web presence. He hopes to be able to build up a big enough reader base to attract paying customers, but for now he is doing free posts for friends and for charitable organizations.

Saturday, January 24, 2009

My New Sleeping Spot

I have taken to sleeping at the foot of the bed on Bob's side. I wait until Monika has gone to bed and then once I am sure she is staying there I climb up and go to my spot. When Bob comes in, he gives me pets and a kiss on the forehead before going to bed. Then he is careful to make sure he doesn't accidentally kick me under the covers as he gets in. I usually stay there for most of the night, unless Obsidian comes in, then it depends on my mood as to whether I stay or jump down.

Thursday, January 08, 2009

Bob is Back

Monika's mother brought Bob back last night and Monika's Aunt and her boyfriend came along for the ride. All the other kitties found some place to hide shortly after they all came in the door, but I staid on my favorite couch and greeted them. They all gave me pets and told me what a pretty girl I am.

Monday, January 05, 2009

Bob Phone

Monika came home last night and after she put her stuff away she called Bob and gave me the phone so he could say Hello to me. I rubbed all over the phone when I heard his voice, but I couldn't get him to come out of it.

Guarding The Tree

The day after Bob and Monika put up our Christmas tree, I found one of the balls on the floor and showed it to Bob when he got home from work. Since then I have been trying to stay close to the tree as much as possible to make sure no kitties try to steal the balls again, but one of them has managed to sneak while I was eating or using the facilities twice and taken one down. Last time Bob put the ball up higher in the tree, so hopefully no kitty can reach it easily.

Clever Pet



Look what Bob did. He has his own blog now, and he likes posting stuff like this on it.

He said he found the original picture on icanhascheezburger.

Spoil Sport

Last night I was in a playful mood and I came into the computer room, then peeked around the door frame and got my back feet running so that when Frostin came around the corner I would be able to surprise him and chase him through the house. As soon as he came into the hallway I charged straight at him and you know what he did? He just laid on the floor in front of me!!! I was so shocked I almost crashed into him. That spoiled my fun, so I just went into the computer room and laid down too.

Saturday, November 22, 2008

Clever Prince

That Frostin sure is clever! He decided it was time for treats, so he went into the kitchen and knocked some dishes together to make a racket. Bob snapped awake and said; "What the heck was that?" and then proceeded to put his shoes on to go investigate. Monika got up a few seconds later and they both went looking all over the house. They checked the windows, the plants and everything they could think of and Bob finally noticed that the plates were crooked.
After he found out what woke him, they were awake though so he gave us our treats and he and Monika got on their computers.

Belly Toll Revesited



I thought you all might want to see what my belly toll looks like, so I asked Monika to take a couple pictures for me before she paid it.

Friday, November 14, 2008

Early Morning Belly Toll

This morning I greeted Bob just outside the bedroom door with a belly toll. I love getting my belly rubbed.

How Does This Work?

Yesterday morning after Bob went to work I found one of the toy mice and decided to see if I could figure out why the other cats like them so much. I picked one up and carried it across the room, then jumped up onto the bed with it, but it didn't do anything. So I laid it back down at the foot of the bed and cried to get Monikas' attention, so I ask her what I was supposed to do with it. It took her a couple of minutes to realize that it was me crying because I have never cried like that before, but when she did I looked at her then the mouse and back at her and asked her how it worked and you know what she did? She picked it up and through it across the room! Now I'll never know how to play with it.
*pout*

Computer Room

I have finally started going into the computer room. I still don't go in there with the other cats for treats, but if Bob and Monika are both in there, I will come in and lay on the floor to be with them.

Monday, September 29, 2008

Sleeping next to Bob

Last night, when he was getting ready to go to bed, Bob brought me into the bedroom and put me on my comforter. I didn't stay on it long, but after he fell asleep I snuck onto Monika's side of the bed and curled up to sleep next to him. When he woke up this morning he saw me there and gave me good morning cuddles.

Friday, September 26, 2008

Scary TV

Last night Bob put the TV on the animal channel and left it on for us to watch while he was on his computer. Most of the time this was OK, but at one point while Bob was taking a kitty break and giving me pets a noisy dog came on and was barking so much that it scared me. Bob hugged me and said it was OK. That the bad dog was only on the TV and it couldn't hurt me. I'm glad Bob was there when it came on. I would have felt silly if I found out that I hid under the bed from something on the TV.

Looking For Monika

Yesterday afternoon, after Bob gave us our treats, I went into the computer room looking for Monika. Bob was in there checking his emails, but when I looked around I didn't see her, so I turned around and left again. Later when she came home I jumped onto the couch so that she could give me attentions.

Saturday, September 20, 2008

V-e-t Revenge

They went and took me to the v-e-t last week. I came back with a clean bill of health, but I was mad that they brought me there so I didn't let them have any belly tolls all week. But I was missing the belly rubs that come from them too much, so I finally gave them one this morning.

Asbestos Exposure & Mesothelioma in Pets

Bob got a email from the Awareness Coordinator at asbestos.com and thought you all would like to see what it was about.

Here is the second paragraph;

"In order to help better educate pet owners on asbestos risks, we have created a pets-specific section on our website. This section covers how pets can be exposed, what symptoms they may exhibit and how to prevent exposure. I was hoping to either request a link to our site and/or contribute free content for publishing on your blog in an attempt to raise awareness."

Click here to see more about this important issue.

(From Bob(I also added a link under links of interest.))

Hurt Paw

Last week I hurt my back paw some how and I didn't want no one to touch it, but Bob and Monika gently checked it and I raised a big fuss. Monika said it looked like my claws were gone, but it was just because my paw was swollen. She checked again the next day and she could see them. It still bothers me a little now, but I am letting them touch it as long as they are careful.

Saturday, August 09, 2008

Computer Room

Bob saw me sitting outside the computer room looking longingly at him and Monika, so He picked me up and brought me in to sit on his lap. He gave me pets and told me that I could come in the computer room when ever I want and that the only place we kitties weren't allowed to go into was the garage. At first I was a little fussy, but as he kept petting me I slowy calmed down and started to enjoy it. Then when I get tired of pets I went and laid on the phone stand for a while before leaving. I'm still not completely comfortable in the computer room, but I wasn't in our old home computer room for a long time either.

Fun with Frostin

I was feeling a bit kittenish last night so I snuck up behind Frostin and gave his tail a light swat to get his attention and then ran off. We chased each other all over the place. I like playing with Frostin and Munchkin, they are both a lot of fun, but Ashlyn is usually too timid to play, and I don't like Obsidian because he tends to try to make me his girlfriend. I would have invited Munchkin to join Frostin and me, but she was in Bob's lap. He is her favorite pet.

Monday, July 14, 2008

They're Back!

All of us kitties really missed Bob and Monika while they were gone this weekend. King Obsidian and Prince Frostin were all pouty, and Queen Munchkin and Princess Ashlyn tried playing hard to get, but they realized they wanted attentions too much to stay away from our humans. Myself, I just laid on the new couch and let them take turns sitting with me and giving me attentions.

Life at Our New Home

Black Cat asked if we are settled in our new house. Yes we all love it here. Now if we could just figure out how to get our pets to stay here instead of having to go to work all the time. The first week we were here Bob staid here with us and was straightening out everything to make it look more like a home. I enjoyed that a lot because he was always there if I wanted attentions. Now he is at work half the time so all of us kitties get lonesome. I asked him if maybe him and Monika could go to work at different times, but he said that they used to do that and they only got to see each other for a few minutes on the days that they both worked and that they like being able to be together every day much better.

Our Chair Is Back

Monika just found our folding chair and put it in the computer room for us this morning. We've all been taking turns sitting in it when we are not exploring.

Sunday, June 01, 2008

Wandering Prince

Frostin is finally coming out and exploring though he still seems to like being close to our pets. He also seems to be facinated with the mirror doors in the bedrooms. It is nice to see him roaming around in the house and checking things out. I missed him while he was in hiding.

Saturday, May 31, 2008

More Moving News

Bob and Monika are still working on getting everything put away, but it already looks like a home in here for the most part. Only problem is that all the stay cold stuff is in coolers because the compressor in the refridgerator died just before they started moving in. The Landlord is buying us a new one on Sunday and then our kitchen will be back to normal.

They Took Me With Them!!!!

Last night Bob and Monika started putting more stuff from the apartment into the car and took it away and then came back and started taking more stuff, but before they were done Bob's friend came over and they put Queen Munchkin, King Obsidian, Princess Ashlyn and I in cat carriers, then they put the last of the stuff into Bob's friends car and Monika put Prince Frostin on his leash and brought him out of the apartment so that Bob could lock it up.
We rode around in the wheeled monster for a short trip and we all serenaded Bob and Monika all the way there. Then when we got to the new house Bob unlocked the door and Monika started bringing all of us kitties into the house and letting us out of the carriers. King Obsidian, Queen Munchkin, Princess Ashlyn and Prince Frostin all ran and found places to hide, but I started exploring my new house right away.
Later everyone started coming out and exploring a little except for Prince Frostin who remained hiding under Bob and Monika's bed. After a while Monika brought him into the living room and gave him some cuddles, then he started to do a little exploring of his own.
When Bob and Monika went to bed I climbed onto the bed with them and found a new place to sleep. I curled up at the top of Bob's pillow near the corner and went to sleep there. Bob gave me pets and said he liked my new sleeping place and then he went to sleep.
When we woke up this morning Frostin was hiding under the bed again so Monika pulled him out and gave him cuddles and then when she put him back down he went and hid in the tub. Poor baby. I think he is more afraid than I was.
I'm so glad that Bob and Monika took me with them to our new house.
*smile*

Indignant Princess

King Obsidian has an annoying habit.

When ever Bob gives us tuna he will finish his and then stand watching me eat mine and try to intimidate me into leaving it for him. This makes me nervous and angry both so I let my nerves loose a little and cough up a hairball all over it on him. I've done it twice now. You would think he would have learned the first time.

*laughs*

More Moving News

Monika took all the covers off of the bunk beds except for the cover on my favorite pillow to wash them and get them packed. I'm glad she left my pillow alone. I would have had to whap her if she took it.

Saturday, April 19, 2008

Breathing Room

Monika closed us all in the bedroom and when Bob let us back out all the totes and boxes were gone. There's room to breath in here again, and they didn't leave us forever.

I Can Talk Too





Get a Voki now!

Saturday, March 29, 2008

Preperations

They are still buying boxes and totes and filling them up with stuff. They changed the futon on the bottom bunk back into a couch to make more room to store all the full bins. Makes it a little harder to get to the top bunk and lay on my favorite pillow, but once I am there it is also harder for Bob and Monika to come and bother me when I am trying to take a nap. I have decided that they can pack all they want as long as everything stays in the apartment. When stuff starts disappearing I will decide if I need to be worried again.

Tuesday, March 25, 2008

Nervous Princess

I started getting real nervous yesterday because I realized that Bob and Monika are preparing to move and I was afraid I would be left behind again, but they both gave me bunches of cuddles and assured me that they would take me with them.

Friday, March 21, 2008

Smart Pet

Bob picked me up yesterday and I was all ready to start snarling because I do not like being held when he put me on Monika's computer chair and sat on the floor next to it so he could give me hugs and cuddles without holding me. I liked that so much that I rubbed foreheads with him and even purred a bit.

*smile*

Wednesday, March 05, 2008

Lap Time

Last night while Bob was on his computer I laid next to him with my belly up to get some attentions. He came down and gave me belly rubs and then he picked me up and put me in his lap at the computer and gave me more cuddles. I staid in his lap for a while as he played on the computer, but I decided I don't like the computer as much as I like TV so I got down.

Sunday, March 02, 2008

Snuggles With Bob

Last night while I was on the top bunk Bob reached up to give me pets and I decided I wanted some snuggles so I asked him to pick me up. This made him very happy because I usually do not like to be held. I only staid with him for about 3 minutes, but for me that is a long time.

Sunday, February 17, 2008

V-e-t Day

I had to go to the v-e-t for my anual check up yesterday. It wasnt too bad except for when they stuck the thermometer in my butt, and when they took a fecal sample. I'll have to ask Max to teach me how to poop at will.

Tuesday, February 05, 2008

I Got Tuna!!!!

Bob gave the other kitties tuna water with a little tuna in it and then came to give me cheese because I have problems with some seafood, but I gave him sad eyes and reminded him that King Obsidian does too, but he is OK with tuna. He decided I was right and gave me a little tuna to try. It was yummy!

*smile*

Now I just hope I don't get sick from it.

Nickname Meme

I got tagged for a nickname meme by The Zoo.
Here are the rules for the Nicknames Meme:
Post a link to the kitty who tagged you, and post the rules on your blog. List your real name, how you got your real name, nicknames you like/tolerate, and nicknames you wish your humans would stop calling you. Tag several kitties, and write a comment on their blog to let them know they have been tagged.
My real name is Boots. Bob named me boots because I have white feet and the white goes up a ways on my back feet so it looks like I have boots on.
Nicknames I like include Bootikins, Pretty girl and Sweety.
Nicknames I don't care for include Fussybutt, and Bad girl.

Saturday, January 19, 2008

I Like My Claws This Way

This morning Bob was giving me snuggles at the bottom of the bed when he woke up and Monika was giving Munchkin cuddles. Then she told Munchkin that she needed her claws trimmed and mentioned that I do too. Soon as she said that, my ears went back, I snarled at Bob and I left. She sure knows how to ruin a cuddle.

Cousin Yogi Hanging Out


This is another video of our cousin Yogi. She's a little camera shy so she tends to stop all activity when Bob gets too close with his camcorder.

Thursday, January 10, 2008

Cousin Angel


This is my cousin Angel. She is starting to get used to Bob. She used to run away if he got less than five feet away from her.

Bob is Magic

Monika was trying to catch me for cuddles last night and I ran under the bottom bunk to hide. Then Bob touched it and it turned into a couch!?!? I didn't know Bob was magic. I'm going to have to keep an eye on him.

Sunday, January 06, 2008

My New Toy

Bob and Monika game home and then went out to buy groceries. While they were out they bought me a special new toy. It's a ball of yarn with a couple of loose strings on it and something that rattles inside. I love yarn. It is the first thing I started playing with when I was learning to play.

*smile*

Saturday, December 22, 2007

Absent Pets

They've done left us again. I think they might be gone a little longer this time because they took an extra suitcase and a whole lot of Christmas gifts with them. Also I heard Bob and Monika talking about Bob's friend coming over to keep us company and to check on our food water and litters.

Saturday, December 08, 2007

I've Reclaimed My Favorite Spot

Just when I finally started feeling comfortable in the computer / guest room they went and had company over so I played shy and hid for the weekend. Now that she is gone though, I am back to laying on the bottom bunk while Bob and Monika are in there, and I even had my treats there twice in a row.

*smile*

Wednesday, November 28, 2007

My New Favorite Place

I found a new place to lay that I like whole lot and it is in the computer room. Monday night Prince Frostin cam in and saw me laying back in the corner on the bottom bunk, and he told Monika, who then told Bob. They both gave me pets and told me it was OK for me to be there, so I staid until Monika went to watch TV, then I left with her. Then yesterday, when Bob came home from wok, I was already in there, so he gave me my treats there.

My Box of Life




Princess Boots here,

Frostin told me about this meme and asked me to post.

A SIMPLE BUT VERY IMPORTANT MEME: List your treasures and tag other kitties and their humans also, as many as you like. Let this reflection spread through out the world. We need to count our contentment's as Blessings!~~~What do you look back over and treasure enough to place inside your BOX OF LIFE?

1. I would start by putting Monika in because she took me in and gave me a forever home even though she and Bob already had 4 kitties.

2. I would put Bob in because he is always gentle with me and he doesn't get offended when I still act a little afraid of him because I used to be afraid of all men

3. I would put Frostin in because he was the first of the kitties here to tr to be nice to me.

4. I would put our patio in. It is the only place whee I feel comfortable being with all the other kitties.

5. I would put the laser light and yarn toys because they are my favorite toys.

6. I would put the cubies in because they are my safe place.

7. I would my blanket at the bottom of the bed because that is my favorite place to sleep at night.

Snarling For Attention


I like attentions, but I prefer to get them on my terms. Even then I tend to snarl a lot.
(Turn up your speakers to hear me.)

Sunday, November 11, 2007

More on Raphina

Bob asked Monika's Mom if we spelled Raffinas' name right and she informed him that it is Raphina, so he went back and fixed it under her picture. They tried mating her with the male rag doll that the woman they got her from brought over, but she would have nothing to do with him, so they are going to fix her now.

Tuesday, November 06, 2007

Hiding


Bob and Monika moved everything out of the living room so that Monika could vacuum and shampoo the rug. I don't like the noises those rug sucking monsters make, so I found where they put my favorite hiding place and I'm not leaving until I'm sure they are done.
(from Bob) And she didn't either. She rode in the cube while I carried it to its' normal spot in front of our entertainment center.

Yogi


This is Yogi. She is a lovable tortie, and she loves playing with the feather stick.

Saturday, November 03, 2007

Girl Kitty Cousins


This s my cousin Mindy. She is a love bug, aways looking for attention.

This is cousin Raphina. She is a pure rag doll and she has bit of the attitude to prove it. She is also the only one of Monika's parents kitties that is not fixed as they hope to mate her.

This is Robin. She is hiding under the bed because she is very shy.

Shy Princess


Hi Everyone,
I'm Princess Ashlyn and I am very shy so I don't play alot, but I wanted to be in a video too, so I asked Bob to film me getting pets, and then asked Princess Boots if I could post it here.
The end of the video is King Obsidian playing with the feather. Bob forgot to edit it off.

Sunday, October 21, 2007

Playful Queen

Queen Munchkin here;
I asked Bob if I could have a movie too, and then borrowed Princess Boot's blog to show it to you.

Hope This Works



Bob finally got his You Tube account working. Here is my first video.

Getting Braver, But Not Ready Yet

Thursday morning decided I was going to try going into the computer room and get treats with the rest of the cats here. I made it to the door and was a little nervous, so I just staid there. Then when Bob went to give me my treats I chickened out and ran away. He came after me and gave me my treats in the living room and told me it was OK if I wasn't comfortable getting my treats with the others. I am so glad that he doesn't mind bringing my treats to me and giving me pets. It makes me feel special.

Sunday, October 07, 2007

Screenshot Meme


I saw the screenshot meme on Millie's blog and thought you all might want to see what Bob's desktop looks like, so I asked him if it would be OK if I showed it to you. I wasn't sure if he would let me because the symbol on it is a personal signet that he designed. He said that if they still used melted wax to seal envelopes, he would have a ring made with this symbol so everyone would know who the letter was from.

7 Things About Me

The Meezers tagged my whole court for a new meme.


The guidelines for this tag:
1. Link to your tagger and post these rules
2. Write some facts about yourself: some random, some weird, some just plain fun.
3. Tag 7 people at the end of your post and list their names (linking to them)

How I Got My Name

Queen Munchkin tagged me for Millie's How I got my name meme, so here is my story.
When my original humans abandoned me some of the local out door cats told me about these nice humans, that always put out food for the outside cats, so they would never be hungry. I went to visit them and I saw that they had cats living in their home also. I missed being indoors, away from the rain and such, so I let the Lady; Monika; know I wanted to live inside with her other kitties. She told the man; Bob; and he said; "You mean the skittish one that looks like she has boots on?" Monika said yes and decided that Boots was a good name for me, then she brought me in and locked me in the bathroom, while she and Bob went to work. When she came home she took me to the v-e-t who tol her that aside from a ear infection I was fine.
I chose Dragonheart, Skeezix, and Rascal.

Comforter Tent

When Bob and Monika put the bed back together last week, Bob forget to tuck the end of the comforter back under the mattress. It hangs to the floor so us kitties have been using it as a tent. We also have to use it as a tunnel if we want to get under the bed.

My Morning Treats

This morning I was being hissy, so Monika closed me in the computer room with all the other kitties that were waiting for their treats. A couple of minutes later Bob came in and closed the door behind him, then he gave us all our treats and told me; "See Boots. It's OK to eat treats in here." I knew it was OK to eat them there. I just prefer to be pampered by having them brought to me. After all, according to Frostin, I'm a princess.

Sick Prince

Frostin was still acting out of sorts, and Monika was worried about him, so Bob and her took Frostin to see the v-e-t. They were there a long time and when they came home Bob emptied our food bowls and Monika gave Frostin a dish of stinky goodness with medicine in it, He didn't eat much of it, but Munchkin and Obsidian wolfed it down and they both said it was good. Obsidian liked it so much he smarled at Munchkin when she first came over to try some. They got dry food with the medicine in it too, but they didn't put any in our bowls. Monika said something about starting to feed us at set times every day. All I know is they better not forget we need food or I may have to do something drastic.

Monika Called

Monika is sick and in the hospital, so Bob is here alone with us kitties. I had hoped that Monika's not being here would mean that I didn't have to get my medicine, but Bob proved that theory wrong before he was home an hour.

Monika called this morning and after he was done talking to her he swithed the phone to speaker so that she could talk to Obsidian and me. I sniffed the phone, but I couldn't smell her in it, so I walked away, but Obsidian rubbed against the phone trying to give her cuddles.

Bad Morning

Yesterday morning Bob and Monika starved me, then Monika put me in the travel box and brought me to the V-E-T to get my teeth cleaned. While I was there they shaved a spot on my leg and gave me a catheter. (yuck) Then I had to stay there for hours before Bob finally came to get me, but even then we had to wait for Monika to come before we could go home.

When we finally got home Bob put the box down and opened it for me, and I ran straight for the bedroom and hid under the bed until I remembered it was treat time and I was hungry. Then I came out and waited by the food dish for my treats while happily eating my regular cat food.

My Morning

Bob and Monika watched a movie this morning and I decided I needed belly rubs so I laid in front of the TV to let them know and they both came down and gave me bunches of attention. Them Monika picked me up and brought me to where Bob had just sat back down, and she put me in his lap. I love napping in Bob's lap while he watches TV.

Frostin Is A Real Prince (even if he is a brat at times)

Frostin is a sweetheart, but Bob and Monika were right too. I don't like it when our pets leave us here alone. My last humans just put me outside, left and never came back, and I don't want that to happen again.
I know everyone has a lot of things going on in the background that makes keeping up with blogs more difficult and my only posting ocassionally doesn't make it any easier for all of you.

Willie's A Cool Kitten

I asked Bob about Willie and he said that he is healing good and that he likes playing alot. His favorite game is chase and for a kitty with only three legs he can run very fast. He likes to hide under the bed and when you try to get him out he will run all over the house always watching over his shoulder to make sure you are still chasing him. Then when he finally lets you catch him he is all purrs and cuddles.

Good Pets

Some times I have trouble getting used to my new humans. This morning I coughed up a hairball and immediately ran to hide because my old humans used to holler at me for making a mess. Bob just got a dry paper towel to pick up the mess and a wet one to scrub the rug and through it in the garbage, then he and Monika both told me it was OK, and that they weren't mad at me. I am not used to humans being so nice.

Attention Wars

Munchkin and I were competing for Bob's attention this morning while he was watching TV. I came up to him while he was still eating breakfast and sat patiently waiting for him to finish. Munchkin came up right before he finished and when he came back from putting his dish in the sink, he reached for me as I was there first, but Munchkin jumped into his lap and laid down before he got me.
After she left his lap, Bob picked me up and put me in his lap, but I was upset because Munchkin had gotten his lap first, so I didn't stay with him long. I think I'll go try to get in his lap again now. Hope Munchkin isn't watching.

Great Fun

I was in a playful mood all day yesterday. At first none of the other kitties wanted to play with me, because they are not used to me being playful, but after a while we were all having great fun. We were still playing chase when Bob went to sleep last night.

Treat Time

This morning when Bob came and asked me where I wanted to eat my treats, I started walking towards the food dishes, but Obsidian was already there, so I stopped at out cat tree and ate them there. I always enjoy getting treats from Bob, because he gives me soft pets while I am eating them.

Thinking




I'm thinking of asking Bob to take the table out of my post window since I decided I don't want to make a seal of my paw print like Frostin has. I also tend to avoid the camera, so there probably won't be a lot of pictures on my blog unless Bob starts getting sneaky.

What do you all think? Should I keep it or have Bob remove it?

Happy 4th of July




I missed posting this weekend, so I figured I would check in and say; "Hello."

Bob and Monika are off today for a bean holiday and Monika's parents are going to visit. That is good because it means all the other kittens here will hide and I will get some peace.

Waking Bob




I see that Frostin has posted about Bob sleeping in again and I decided to tell you about the ways the different cats here have of waking him up when they are tired of waiting for their treats.

Munchkin will jump onto the bed at the foot then walk up the side of his body 'til she reaches his head. Then she proceeds to lick the inside of his ear until he wakes up. (Doesn't look very appealing to me but she seems to like it.)

Obsidian jumps onto the side of the bed, usually landing on Bob, and if that doesn't wake him up he walks up to his head and commences to head butting him. (I should think that would be more likely to make him sleep longer.)

Ashlyn is still a tiny cat and she jumps onto the bed and climbs straight up his chest, then she rubs noses with him until he wakes up and gives her cuddles. (I might actually try that if I was as tiny as her.)

Frostin gets next to his head and noses at the covers until he half wakes and lets Frostin under the covers, then he grabs Bobs' hand and tries to pull it out from under the covers and if he succeeds in that he tries pulling Bob off the bed by that same hand. (A valiant effort, but I think Obsidian has a better chance with the head butts.)

As for me, I just let him sleep. I know he'll get up sooner or later and when he does the treats wont be long behind.

Hide'n'Seek




I love the way us kitties have our pet humans trained. Munchkin decided she wanted to play hide'n'seek and she had Monika and Bob looking all over the apartment for her. It was fun watching them search. They even used a flashlight to look under the beds and dressers. I think I might have to get them to play that with me some time.

Petless Weekend




Bob and Monika left Friday evening and came back early this evening. They smelled of a whole bunch of other kitties and looked like they both got a lot of sun. I think they had a lot of fun visiting Monikas' parents.

Clean Covers




This morning after Monika and Bob got up I decided to go back into the bedroom and lay on my small blanket at the foot of the bed. After a little while they Obsidian and Frostin got on the bed too, then Bob and Monika chased us all off the bed and when I came back, my blanket and all the rest of the covers were gone.

I got kind of upset because I didn't know where my blanket was, but then Bob let me sit on his lap for a while and I calmed down.

Then after a while Bob and Monika went out and came back in with their laundry like they do every weekend and a little bit after that they came and got me and brought me into the bedroom. There was my blanket on the foot of the bed again along with all the covers including a pretty new big blanket that Monika said was an afghan.

My Favorite Person




This morning Bob's sister Joan called and he put the phone on speaker so I could hear her. I rubbed my head on the phone and tried to purr loud enough for her to hear me. Joan is my favorite person and I always love cuddling with her and listening to her voice.
