Hiatus.

We're going to be away for a while.

Shadow Cat.

I don't know about Russell, but I'm getting a head start on the weekend. I think he's watching out the window for the return of the contractor who's going to do some work for us. When the guy came by today, Russell just had to fall all over him. (You know how my bro is--it's how he got the erroneous name Pretzel after he fell all over some other contractor we had eons ago.) I'm glad we always seem to get folks who are cat lovers, and this one is even owned by a cat! Now, who wants to bet that she will blog tonight about her dad coming home smelling like an alien boy cat? Ha ha ha ha!

Well, have a great weekend, everybody!

Meezday.

It's me, Caroline!

I'm pretty sad because a few weeks ago we had a couple of freezing nights and the sycamores that had just started to leaf out got all frozen. So now the ones we have nearby all look like brown fall instead of green summer. And you just know that all the birdies who would have lived there this season now have to find other trees. Which means they won't be visiting us. :-(



I don't even think Cheez-Its will help.

Fish-B-Gon™.

That fishie background was making me all dizzy.



So we made it go away. Much better.



Besides, everybody knows fishies are better on a cat dinner plate than on a cat blog!

Weekend Visitor.

Play Time.

Thanks, everyone, for the birthday wishes! I had a very fun day.

Today I thought I'd share a secret with you: my very favorite toy of all time is a bunch of strands of shiny Mylar on the end of a very bouncy wire. I've had it for eons and it's very precious because I don't know that there's another one anywhere on earth! My mom has to play with me with this toy and we play every day at least once.

It's hard to believe, but weeks ago I would just lie there and bat at it; now I'm chasing it up and down the hallway and the stairs, and I jump up for it and I fly right up on the tower to play with it too.













Another secret? I like to watch Russell get all dizzed out from going around in circles trying to catch it! It's pretty funny to see him fall over on his bum. Bonus!

Well, have a playful weekend, everybody! And be sure to celebrate tonight's full pink moon!

Meezday.

It's me, Caroline!

And I want some of that baby food too!

I Am 10.

Yep, I'm 10 years old today! I got a special birthday crown that my mom made for me--and in my favorite color red--but I felt more like playing with it than wearing it, so no pictures of that. I think we're lucky I managed this tiny pose today!



I can hardly wait for dinner because I know I'm getting a surprise treat--baby food! And later? I'm going to get my coat done and then nap on my mom.

Photobomb.

Of course. Screamoline has to get in on the action.



Hey, thanks for all the pre-birthday wishes! Tomorrow, though, is my actual birthday. You know what that means--no Russell Bustle Tuesday but me two days in a row! On my own blog!
