thursday 13 - quotes about cats . . .

collected from the innernets, of course:

1. Any question addressed to a cat can be counted as rhetorical.
2. An aquarium is just interactive television for cats.
3. Cat rule: Don’t bite the hand that feeds you; just bite the one that won't feed you fast enough.
4. Cats are rather delicate creatures and they are subject to a good many ailments, but I never heard of one who suffered from insomnia.
5. Cats instinctively know the exact moment their owners will wake up. Then they wake them 10 minutes sooner.
6. Cats seem to go on the principle that it never does any harm to ask for what you want.
7. Curiosity is the very basis of education and if you tell me that curiosity killed the cat, I say that the cat died nobly.
8. I have studied many philosophers and many cats. The wisdom of cats is infinitely superior.
9. People that hate cats will come back as mice in their next life.
10. There are many intelligent species in the universe. They are all owned by cats.
11. There are two means of refuge from the miseries of life: music and cats.
12. You know it's time to shave your legs when the cat uses them for scratching behind its ears.
13. On the Internet, nobody knows you're a cat.

our mom had a WONDERFUL day yesterday, an' gave us spinach quesadilla leftofers for treats when she came home!!

we are gonna let her post a few photos from her day on the weekend, so stay tuned!

mom's birthday

it's our mom's birthday today. here is the card we gots for her!!she's takin' the day off from day hunting, an' she an' her ladyfriend ginger (who also has four kitties, so she's automatically OK in our book) are planning what we heard mom call a "go-to-hell" day--we really don't unnerstand that. we thought the point was to avoid going there . . .

wacky wednesday

our wacky dad. he saw max's commander kitty tower, so he hadda get one. he doesn't even have a tail to help him balance gracefully, so we were a little worried as he crawled from branch to branch. and since he doesn't have claws, he was rubbing a big piece of metal on the branches. every once in a while, he'd make some noise, but it didn't sound much like meowing . . . . we're furry concerned about his mental health; is this a "spring" thing with beans?(mom: actually, he was trying to trim out the last of the ice storm damage, but only spiderman could manage that without a bucket-truck, so the tippy-top snags will remain.)

"cat tale" tuesday

look, mom!! somebody wrote a book about xing!
      no, ed. that's a picture of somecat that looks a lot like our xingxing.
did she pose for the picture?
      prolly not. i haven't seen any royalty checks in her name at the mailbox lately.
well, what is it then? it's got about a thousand kitty stinks on it!!
      that's a book about a girl and her kitty, so i suppose beans who love kitties have read it, and their kitties have investigated it just like you're doing.
why is there a book about a girl and her kitty?
      well, from the couple of pages i have read so far, they go into the future to help people.
help people in the future? why don't their OWN cats help them?
      ed, even in our real world, not everybean has a kitty or kitties. or even a woofie.
*gasp!* why efurr not?
      good question. because they don't know any better, i suppose.
well, i still don't see why they hadda go.
      maybe they don't have any kitties in the future, and they need to see one.
*wheeze! gasp! choke* (faintly:) no kitties?
      i don't know, ed. it's just an idea. i've only just begun to read the book. i'll tell ya how it comes out.
oh, mom! if there's no kitties, i don't wanna know!!!
      ok, ed. i'll make up something and won't tell you if there's no kitties.
*shiver* oooooooooo. even for a kitty with laser eyes, THAT's too scary to think about!!

ATTENTION, DREAD PIRATE BLOGGER!!!!

nitro defends himself on 13 points

aCOURSE i do these things; i'm a kitty, ain't i?

   1. sleep on ed. there's no one fluffier in the house to sleep on!
   2. pounce ed until he hollers. ahhhhh, that ain't hard. he's a sissy, for all his girth and bluster.
   3. put the bitey on nels. because he runs slowest.
   4. walk through the kitchen yowling for no reason. makes mom & dad wonder what i'm up to.
   5. chase nelson, ed, and xing, and eat their foods. why not? they hardly feed me enough; and besides, usually porker ed noses me outta my kibbles before he's finished with his, so i just get even!
   6. knock mom's earrings on the floor. they're sparkly, they move an' roll around in strange ways, and they're THERE. what more could i ask of a toy?
   7. tinkle in the not-yet-cleaned pottybox while mom cleans the ofurr one. then poop in the clean one. because i'm an equal-opportunity kinda guy.
   8. help himself to any foods left unattended. hey, you snooze, you lose.
   9. wake dad up early efurry day by singin'. i'm NOT singin'--i'm hollerin', 'cause cocoa has me pinned to the door. don't they hear all that bangin' an' thumpin'? what do they think i'm doing? they're tone-deaf if they think that's singin'!!!
  10. wake mom up FURRY early onna the weekend by singin'. ditto; cocoa just seems to want to get up earlier on weekends.
  11. drink mom's coffee while she's not lookin'. see #8. besides, she puts cream in it--what kitty wouldn't go after that??
  12. chase the red dot up ofurr cocoa's head. cocoa just LOVES surprises, so i do what i can to accomodate her!
  13. play wif mom's makeup when she leaves it out on the sink. no, i'm not tryin' it on--it's just that i can't help battin' around all those nice roll-y pots and tubes. if she doesn't want me to do it, she shouldn't leave them around!! she doesn't leave her shoes out where cocoa can chew them, does she? nope. i rest my case.

HAPPY OCCASION!!!

HAPPY BLOGIVERSARY, KAT! thanks for acres and acres of puddy-tat pictures--efurry one a winner. just like YOU!!
PURRS AND HEADBONKS FROM ALL THE MEOWERS!

about that fur growing in different . . .

here's our woofie buddy, felix. (his ears has medicine on them, so they looks kinda straggly, but he's a cute fluffy boy when they don't has the yucky stuff on 'em.)
he had an owie on his tail, an' when the furs grew back, they was 'way darker than it was before! so it's not just us kitties that happens to.
