Triple Threat Tuesday

It's a Tuxie, Tabby and Tortie Tuesday!



Mommy's just so excited that we all in the same picture! And we're so excited that it's stopped storming long enough for us to go outside!

Well Trashed!

Well, it seems that we did a pretty okay job on trashing the house! This is what Mommy saw when she walked in the front door...


And here's what everyone did!

Gracie & Ping opened cabinets and pulled stuff out, then they went through the pantry on the way to the Laundry - you should see what they did in there - whew!

Merlin got started by chewing on cardboard boxes and any other cardboard he could find!

Shade put her weight behind and toppled a few things from the mantle while Goldie had a go at sharpening his claws on the ottoman.

The McKitten-Cats all made their presence know - Maggie made some fine toilet paper art. Jasper took over knocking over the bath room trash cans. Huggy clawed a couple chairs. And Josie, the good-girl served the snacks and nip!

Of course the dogs were up to no good!

Beaux and Samwise (the Purrageous Pups) helped George out with her toy basket as well as the kitchen trash! While Captain Jack and Fagin whapped things off of the window sills. We're not sure where Dante and Pearl snuck off to?!

Hendrix, Bendrix and Flyyn all worked over the carpets!

Tazo and Eric had a whack or two at the couches!

Samantha & Tigger lead a great game of Thundering herds of Elephants - it's safe to say that a few things were knocked over!

Faith Boo brought her extraordinary skills, the paper artist enjoyed the toilet paper, until she found the huge store paper towels in the pantry!

Magoo, Smudge, Bella & Dolce played a game of "Does it break or bounce?" with a couple of plants!

Some one (or two or three) was in the tent and the toy basket!

Speedy helped to shred the furniture, eat stuff out of the garbage and then he yak all over - it was great!

Jimmy Joe took care the couch, making it nice and white and orangey!

Queen Snickers brought the whole demolition crew, Empress and Renna the destructo doggy! But some how she disappeared when she saw Jake in all his destructive glory!

Fat Eric left floofy ginger and white fur all over everything then helped Chance out with pulling the blinds down!

Even Miss Peach was there to take out her frustrations!

"Really Mommy, I have no idea how things got like this!"

And look at all the crazy stuff Ayla did (wow is she amazing)!

"I unrolled the toilet paper and made sure ta perforate it as I did. I pulled the carpet up at one corner, an shredded some Kleenex in a difernt corner. I pushed dust-bunnies out from unner the bed and inta the middle of the livin room. "

"I carried little bits of cat food all over the house. I had GREAT fun pushin pens an paperclips unner the stove and frigerator."

"Did I mention that I teleported our dead mousie over an hid it inna closet? "

"You may notice that I petty much emptied yer litterbox stuff outta the box, that I knocked ofer the waterbowls, and shoved the candles to tha floor."

"An iffa ya see clawmarks on the curtains, that was me. "

"Not to mention the towels I pulled from the rack an pulled inta the toilet. AND flushed! Wow! "

The real question is who did this?!

Thank you to one an all for a thorough trashing - yet again the kitties of the blogosphere do not disappoint!

Practical Thursday Part Six

It's Thursday again - that means it's time for another 'Practical Cat'. This week, we've added a video of the scene from Cats, so that you can all sing along!

OLD DEUTERONOMY
Old Deuteronomy's lived a long time;
   He's a Cat who has lived many lives in succession.
He was famous in proverb and famous in rhyme
   A long while before Queen Victoria's accession.
Old Deuteronomy's buried nine wives
   And more-I am tempted to say, ninety-nine;
And his numerous progeny prospers and thrives
   And the village is proud of him in his decline.
At the sight of that placid and bland physiognomy,
   When he sits in the sun on the vicarage wall,
The Oldest Inhabitant croaks: 'Well, of all...
   Things...Can it be...really!...No!...Yes!...
       Ho! hi!
       Oh, my eye!
My sight may be failing, but yet I confess
I believe it is Old Deuteronomy!'

Old Deuteronomy sits in the street,
   He sits in the High Street on market day;
The bullocks may bellow, the sheep they may bleat,
   But the dogs and the herdsmen will turn them away.
The cars and the lorries run over the kerb,
   And the villagers put up a notice: ROAD CLOSED-
So that nothing untoward may chance to disturb
   Deuteronomy's rest when he feels so disposed
Or when he's engaged in domestic economy:
   And the Oldest Inhabitant croaks: 'Well, of all...
   Things...Can it be...really!...No!...Yes!...
       Ho! hi!
       Oh, my eye!
I am deaf of an ear now, but yet I can guess
That the cause of the trouble is Old Deuteronomy!'

Old Deuteronomy lies on the floor
   Of the Fox and French Horn for his afternoon sleep;
And when the men say: 'There's just time for one more,'
   Then the landlady from her back parlour will peep
And say: 'Now then, out you go, by the back door,
   For Old Deuteronomy mustn't be woken-
I'll have the police if there's any uproar'-
   And out they all shuffle, without a word spoken.
The digestive repose of that feline's gastronomy
   Must never be broken, whatever befall:
And the Oldest Inhabitant croaks: 'Well, of all...
   Things...Can it be...really!...No!...Yes!...
       Ho! hi!
       Oh, my eye!
My legs may be tottery, I must go slow
And be careful of Old Deuteronomy!'



And get ready to see all the distruction from the house trashing party tomorrow!

Wow Wee Wednesday

Once again you kitties are awesome - we really had a great time trashing the house! Though we may need to to more, Mommy was barely phased when she walked in the door tonight (and we thought you all did a great job!).

But apparently it was enough to talk Mommy into a little bit of time together, including time to open our Swap n Tails from Samantha and Mr. Tigger!


They sent a bunch of lovely toys, a super hand lotion set for Mommy and best yet, these beautiful sea shells! They smell lovely (we couldn't keep our noses off them)!


And they were even nice enough to send treats for George too - well after we gave them a thorough going over!

Thank you so much you guys!

-Pearl, Bert and Jake

Oh and we almost forgot the Blogblast for Peace!

Trash the House Tuesday!

Alright, we decided to take this situation into our own paws! We've gotten a total of 1 hour of Mommy or Daddy time since yesterday - and that is unacceptable. So we're throwing a house trashing party!!!!

Here's what we have planned:
We'll break into the big white food box and get the giant vat o' nip (and of course any ham, cheese or anything else we want).
There are some blinds that need to be climbed on.
Mommy and Daddy left the trash cans full, so they can all be knocked over and messed with.
We've got a bunch of paper bags that need shredding (Faith Boo? Riley? perhaps you could create a little art work for Mommy and Daddy).
And of course there's always the furniture that needs climbing and clawing!

So, who's in?!?!!?

Replaced!

We've been replaced! And not just by other kitties, but two little beans and a woofie! Oh the indignity of it all!

Mommy and Daddy's friends are out of town for a week, so they are moving in with the little beans to take care of them. So that means we're stuck here at home with out them. Oh sure, they're only a few doors down the street and they say they're going to stop home two or three times a day - but it's not like actually having them home! There is a bright side though, they are taking George at night so we can play all night long without getting chased by her.

But who are we going to sleep on in the middle of the night? What if we want our breakfast before they get home in the morning? When are we going to get our play time in? And how are we supposed to go outside if no one is here to watch us? Obviously they didn't really think this whole thing through!

And the very worst part of all of this is that we might not be able to visit all our friends very much this week!



Guess I'll just sit here and look ticked off till I get some treats!
