Friday Funnies

Aunt Sniffy is here!

So Aunt Sniffy isn't her real name and she's not really related to us at all. She is from northern Ohio and mom knows her from the Meowmail board. Aunt Sniffy was meowmie to Rudy and PD. Both have crossed the Rainbow Bridge. However, she still posts on the board and everyone loves her. She is in town for the National Alpaca Show doing some type of promotions. Mom had dinner with her last night, and some of Aunt Sniffy's co-workers. It was a nice evening and mom thought everyone enjoyed their dinner at Ramsi's. She took Aunt Sniffy and kitty Dusty's purrents there last year. Aunt Sniffy liked it so much she wanted to go back. They didn't do anything else after dinner. Aunt Sniffy and Julie were really tired from a busy day so mom dropped them off at their hotel after dinner.

Monday Laughs

Mom said that we are definitely bigger on the inside - and that some of us are stinkier than others! Somefur left a pile of poops on the bedroom floor in our Dad's room yesterday morning. Mom thinks it is Seren, but we aren't telling. *Ssssshhhh*

We want to file a complaint!

Our mom likes the band called the Stray Cats. She also really likes their song "Stray Cat Strut." We actually have two complaints:

Complaint #1:

The Stray Cats aren't cats at all! They are 3 humanbeans. The aren't even trying to look like cats! We think they should change their name to The Stray Humans.
Complaint #2:

The song "Stray Cat Strut" is about a tomcat (not to be confused with Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, who were also known as "TomKat"). But the first line of the song is "Black and orange stray cat sitting on the fence," which leads us to believe that it's a girl kitty, a tortie to be exact. We think the words should be changed to "black and white stray cat" or "black and grey tabby cat". You get the idea.
Mom said we have too much time on our paws to be thinking about this.
Purrs,

Brushies!

Me (Clarissa), Bandit, and Serendipity love to get brushies from mom. We have our own brush that has long wire bristles with little plastic tips on the end that mom uses to brush us. For one thing it feels soooo good. We all just purr and purr when we get brushed. And the other thing we like is it gets rid of a lot of loose fur so we don't get hairballs after grooming.

Jazzpurr seems to enjoy being brushed only if mom sneaks up on her and starts to brush her. She doesn't actively seek it out like we do. Memphis doesn't seem to care for it much, but his fur is extremely short. Sable can take it or leave it. And mom had never brushed Fiona or Daisy...until last night.

She has a small rubber brush on the end table next to her chair. Daisy jumped in her lap last night for some mom love and mom decided to try to brush her. Much to mom's surprise, Daisy really seemed to like it. Mom also got gobs and gobs of loose fur from her too. After she left Sable jumped up into the chair. He let mom give him a good brushing too. And then Fiona came up for a visit. She just purred and purred when mom started brushing her back. Her fur is short and kind of coarse in texture. She closed her good eye and looked so very contented and then she turned her head a playful chomped on mom's hand. Mom stopped brushing her then. She was afraid that Fiona might get over-stimulated and really let her have it.

That last one to get brushies was Serendipity. She layed down in mom's lap and probably would let mom brush her all night long.

I didn't get brushies last night. But I did get them this morning while mom was putting her face on. Life is good....

More Laughs

Purrs for Pib's Crossing the Bridge

We never physically met Pib (Puss in Boots) but she was a frequent visitor on the Meowmail Forum. Her mom posted to the forum and said Pib crossed the bridge yesterday morning. Instead of mourning her passing we shall celebrate her long life. PIB was 24 or 25 years old, very old for a kitty. She was a beautiful snowshoe kitty and she had a very sweet face. When one of our furs on the forum crosses the Bridge I hope they know that that take a little piece of our hearts with them and leave a little piece of their's behind. Safe passage, Pib.

Purrs,
