Mancat Rule of the Day:  It is very manly to help your The Mom with the laundry. 

Froot Bat Friday

Mom's had a couple of super busy days, so I didn't have to endure any "gimme some frooooot baaaaaat!" On the other hand, she also forgot that today is Froot Bat Friday, so there are no new photos of my delicious, pink ears.  Sorry! She's just out of control lately. 

Remember our Wordless Wednesday post where the twins were all 'nipped out?  Well, the next night, this is what happened.

He's not that askeery when he's all mellow.  Check this one out - I'm even letting him touch me.

Yesterday, we wented to see the cat shrink - and why do *I* have to go see the *cat* shrink - I'm a dawg! behaviorist for a check up on how we're doing.  She's really happy with our progress.  Mom was worried because her and EG haven't been doing so great on getting him to come to his spot on the counter when she says his cue word.  But Dr D said that what sort of evolved out of her trying to do the cue word stuff works just fine, ie. we *all* get "redirected" and come running when she opens the fridge door.  Well, duh, Mom - there's food in there and that's where you keep the treats (which we've been getting a lot of - wahoo!).  So she said she's happy with how we're behaving and we don't have to go back for six months.  But she said that Mom and Dad have to be super vigilant in the spring because April is crazy cat month here in the Mitten State.  Dr D said that she always gets a ton of calls from cat parents as soon as the weather starts warming up, even cats who've been doing great for years. Great, just great. Mom says I don't have to worry about that - we'll be prepared for next year.

In other news, my pal Mick is feeling lots better and I'm super happy.  We were super worried about my whitester pal there for a bit.  But he's doing lots better and we're super thankful for that.

So, I'm sorry about the lack of Froot Bats this week, but Mom promises to make up for it next week.   Have a great weekend, everybuddy!

Wordless Wednesday

Tazo Tuesday

Here I am, taking a snooze on the cable box.

Here I am, after Mama started SQUEE-ing.  She says I look like I need a cup of coffee.

Mancat Monday

The small hyooman that's been hanging around my house lately brought over these cool toys. They are called ZhuZhu Pets.  I highly recommend them.  Here I am checking them out:

They are super cool and fun to stalk.  See that round, blue thing by my head?  It's a hamster wheel.  That was my favorite part.  The ZhuZhu Pet runs and runs in that thing, but never goes any where, so you can just sit there and bat at it.  If we ever get a hamster-like thing in our house, I'll be ready to take care of bizness.

That small hyooman also tried talking The Mom into getting us a fish.  He pretty much had her convinced.  Now we just have to work on Dad...

Mancat Rule of the Day:  Small hyoomans can come in handy. 

Froot Bat Friday

First of all, it's been a really sad week around the Blogosphere.  We lost lots of furriends and lots of furriends aren't feeling too well either.  Mom and I were talking about how we're lucky to be involved in such a pawsome community of furriends.  We're there to celebrate the good stuff, but we also pull together during sad or scary times.  It means so much to know that there are furriends out there purring and purraying for you when things are rough. 

Today's Froot Bat Friday is dedicated to our furriend, Luxor.  He was my Froot Bat inspiration.  He was the one who taught me all about Froot Bats and then introduced me to the other original Froot Bat, Kaze.  I always felt a special connection to Luxor, because we're both pink and white and Froot Batty.  We're going to miss you, Lux.  

So here, buddy, this one's for you. 

 

Thirsty Thursday

Mama loves when I drink like this.  That's Titus' table (our Papa made it for him because of his neck problems - so he doesn't have to bend down to eat or drink).  EG and I usually share a bowl of water on the floor (if you're wondering why we don't get our own table, well, we wonder about that, too!), but Mama was moving stuff around and there was only one water bowl out.  When you're super thirsty, you gotta do what you gotta do.  Notice how my back right leg is propped up on the table?  I've done that ever since I was a baby kitten (Titus used to have a shorter table).  Mama love love loves it.  If you think there was some SQUEE-ing going on, you would be right.
