Well Trained Pet

Usually if Bob needs to be reminded to clean our litters, either Munchkin, Obsidian or Frostin does it, but today I decided to give it a try. I got him to play chase with me, then I lead him to our food in the kitchen but continued around the table. He went around the other way to catch me, but when I got to the litter I stopped, looked at him then at the litter and back at him, and I got him. I have to say the other cats here have him trained very well.

*smile*

Watching My Busy Pets

Bob and Monika took a bunch of plastic boxes with covers, I think Monika called them totes, out of the garage and they were going through them. They through out a bunch of stuff and compiled the rest so they had less full totes, they even opened up the big wooden box, Monika says it is a cedar chest and got some stuff out of it. WHen they left I jumped into that one and when Monika came back she laughed and said that I couldn't sleep in there because she had to close it again. Then when they finally finished they put all the totes except for one back into the garage. The one they kept out has some of her and Bob's knife collection in it.

Morning Fun

This morning I played chase with Monika. I led her all around the house, and then when I was tired of running I just laid down and let her catch me. Of course when she started petting me I still raised my little snarly fuss. I can't have my pets thinking that I actually like being pet and cuddled.

Please Help Us

Bob and Monika are have bad financial problems right now, because Bob can no longer do the auto-auctions, and he hasn't been able to find a regular job yet. We are hoping that since they asked him to come back for a second interview, that the place he is going to today will hire him. Only problem is, even if they do, he will not be paid by them for 2 weeks. That makes things kind of bad, because they don't have enough money to keep gas in the car for next week.

*pout*

I know Bob and Monika hate to ask for help, so I am interviening and asking for them. Please ask your humans if they have some green papers that they might be able to give to my pets to help them out. Also please ask them to purr, that Bob gets this job.

My Day With Bob

Yesterday I was following Bob around and when he went into the shower, I stoud up and pressed my face to the glass to try to see what he was doing. Then, after he dried off and got dressed, I led him into the kitchen and let him know that our food dish needed refilled. Later, after he cmae back from his interview, I jumped up onto his lap and got bunches of pets and cuddles to make up for him being gone.

Fresh Air

Bob and Monika have been opening the front door and then opening the screen on the outer door a lot for us lately. I love being able to smell the fresh air and hear and see the animals. Only problem is that every once in a while some strange human walks up to the door. Then it is time for all of us kitties to go hide.

Playing Chase

I decided that I wanted to play chase this morning, so I got Monika's attention and then ran off. I was having bunches of fun leading her all around the house and then Bob joined the fun. I lead them on a merry chase for a little longer and then I ran into the computer room and jumped onto my chair for attentions. That was lots of fun, but now I think I need a nap.

New Spot To Chill

I found a new favorite place to lay. I lay with my belly on the nice cool tile floor in the bathroom, and my chest on the carpet in the hallway, so I can do biscuits while I am relaxing.

Yikes!

Yesterday Bob and Monika left to do some visiting and when they came home I was so happy to see them that I started running to Monika. Then I smelled it. They had been visiting dogs! I turned tail and ran and hid under the bed. Later I came out and laid on top of the bed and Bob came in slowly and gave me gentle pets and told me that it was OK and that the dogs would not get me. A short time after that I finally came out and got on my chair next to Monika's computer so that she could give me pets.

Bad Timing

Yesterday I was headed for the litter box in the living room when Bob headed towards it with the scoop, so I backed off so he could clean it and went to the one in the bathroom. Then just as I finished the litter box moved and Bob lifted the cover off. That is the problem with covered litters. Our humans can't always see in to tell if we are there.

*grumpf*

Fun With Bob

Yesterday after Bob and Frostin read the blogs, Bob sat down to read his book, but I wanted to play so I went into action. I walked up to him and got his attention, and then when he reached down to pet me I ran off and said come chase me. The first two times I did it din't work, but the third time he put down the book and came running after me. I made him chase me into the computer room and jumped onto my chair. Then when he tried to give me cuddles I ran off again, and when we got into the hallway I flopped down onto my back for a belly rub. Bob laid down next to me and gave me bunches of belly rubs, pets and cuddles.

*smile*

Impatient Princess

This morning I sat in the doorway to the bathroom and watched Bob wash and shave. Then, when he was done, I told him it was about time, and I ran to the computer room to wait for my treats.

Playing With Frostin

Last night I was laying in the doorway to the computer room, when I heard Frostin call for someone to come play with him. I quickly ran to the end of the hallway, then hunched down and got my back feet going so I would be ready for anything. Then I peeked around the corner, saw where he was hiding and launched myself for a great game of chase.

*smile*

Happy Day

This morning instead of going to work after Monika left for her work, Bob came back into the bedroom and took a nap with Frostin and me. I love it when one of my humans stays home with us.

*smile*

Lap Nap

Yesterday, Bob went into the living room and sat in the recliner to read his book. About two minutes after he started reading, I jumped up and nosed the book out of the way so that I could climb into his lap. He put the book down and started giving me pets and ear scritches. At first I was a little nervous and I remained standing in his lap, but after a few more soft pets I started making biscuits on his leg, and then I laid down and started purring. Then I got real relaxed and decided to take a nap on his lap. He continued petting me for a little bit and then he picked his book back up, but by then I was sleeping comfortably.

Me And Frostin

Yesterday I was laying at the foot of the bed on Monika's side to take a nap, when Frostin came up and asked me to play with him. I told him I would play later, but that right now I wanted to take a nap. Then he decided that a nap sounded like a good idea, so he laid at the foot on Bob's side to join me. Then Monika came in and started petting Frostin and he started wagging his tail.

At first I tried to ignore his tail and take my nap, but every time I saw it move the kitten me wanted to catch it. Soon the kitten in me won out and I grabbed it. You should have seen him jump. Then he turned to me and said; "What the heck? I thought you wanted to take a nap." I just smiled and replied; "And I thought you wanted to play?"

*laughs*

Bye Bye Christmas Tree

Bob and Monika left the Christmas tree up for a long time because I liked laying under it, but they finally took it down this weekend. Monika started before Bob woke up, by taking off all the ornaments and she got a surprise when she found that one of us kitties put a fuzzy ball into the tree as another ornament. When Bob got up, they took off the lights and took the tree apart, then Bob put all the totes away in the garage while Monika put the cat tree back where it was before they put the Christmas tree up.

Sorry Obsidian

There is a folding chair in the computer room that is set next to Monika's computer. It was originally set up for Obsidian because he likes to sit in Bob and Monika's chairs, so they gave him his own chair to sit in. I have recently discovered that if I sit in it while Monika is on the computer, she will reach down and give me pets and she doesn't try to pick me up. I love pets and scritches, but I don't really like being held much, so I think I am going to make that my chair instead. I get into it every day while Monika is playing on her computer and I get bunches of pets and scritches.

*smile*

Double Belly Toll

This morning I laid down by the kitchen entrance to set up a belly toll and Monika and Bob both came and paid it. I love getting my belly rubbed. It is my favorite kind of attention.

Scary Moment

Yesterday, after they came home from work Monika went into the computer room and Bob went to Pizza Hut to get his check and to check the mail. While he was out she caught me and washed my front paws because I had a owied claw. Then she told Bob that she hoped that if my claw didn't hurt so much I would stop scratching the carpet. A few minutes later I went to start scratching it again and Bob just pointed at me and said; "Boots! You know better." so I stopped. Then he went back to talking to Monika and all of a sudden he turned around and he was taking his belt out of his pants. I was terrified because I thought he was going to hit me with it, but he just put it on the floor and laid next to me to give me pets and cuddles. He said I was a good girl and he would never hit me with the belt, so I calmed back down real fast. Then he got back up and he went and changed into his jeans and t-shirt.

Sad Morning

Both of my humans are leaving us this morning. I always get so scared when they both are gone because my last humans left me and never came back. Bob and Monika always try to assure me that they would never do that, but it still makes me nervous to be left with just the other kitties.
