Bandit, Kassie is keyed to sunrise. Meaning, when we set clocks back in the fall, I *lose* an hour while everyone else gains it! She will wake me up, without fail, at 5am. I set an alarm for the days I have a train commute, but otherwise, nuh unh!

And Costa? He knows EXACTLY when it is 5:30pm at night. Time for dinner. Although I won't feed him till 6:30, he's sitting in the room, watching me. LOL.

LOL! Boo watches me too when she wants to eat, even though I won't feed her until after 6:00pm.

That FURminator is quite interesting. However, there's absolutely no way Boo will let me get near her with that thing. She absolutely refuses to let me groom her. I have the scars to prove it.

Too cute Bandit about Toby.

Angelina did allow me to use the FURminator for a few minutes tonight and Critter.. wow I've removed quite a lot of dead hair (or loose hair). I figure anything I remove is a good thing.

No.. it is not a brush.. in the past I'd have called it a "stripping tool"

THe Furminator:

Ahhh thx Supergranny!!! He is doing great, still a little shit though! LOL He is into everything. He still has accidents in the house but they are fewer so that is good.

We have a new prob of one of the cats pissing on counter...they never got up there before and it just started.....we have put up a camera to find out who it is and take him to vet....might be bladder infection

I have always said that dogs think you can see thru walls and they always look guilty so you know which one did it but cats...they know darn well that you can't see thru walls. But now with cameras...hmmm..didn't have one of those when we had cats.

That's the thing about having more than one cat; you never know who did what and THEY sure aren't telling!
The crime scene
The mess
Suspect #1 Booboo shortly after the mess
Suspect #1
Suspect #2 Shadoe shortly after the mess
Suspect #2
Likely culprit, shortly before the mess
The jury's suspicions
Both suspects, shortly before the mess
Both suspects
Shadoe's reaction was What? I didn't do it!
Booboo's reaction was So are ya gonna clean that up?
Note the yellow twisted pipe cleaner in most of the pictures. I am sure that if I asked them what happened, Booboo would say it is MY fault for introducing the pipe cleaner, and Shadoe would be right behind her saying Yeah, what Booboo said!
I can't win so I don't bother trying.
I just clean up the mess and wait for the next one.

rotfl! Shadoe, your storylines are great! (Although, I think Shadoe's body language is saying something about being frisked and Booboo is screaming caviity search, but that's just me. )

Great paperweight, Pamy!

Mr. Loki had a nice day, feasting on crackers and cream cheese.



I fed him the crackers, and he dove into the cream cheese.

Next, he thought he'd take a nap while his sisters watched over him.



What a hard life. :-)

Pamy, glad Houdini is doing better. He sure is a cutie pie.

Shadoe, excellent detective work. Only thing missing was the yellow tape around the scene of the crime.

Half, you know we love that Loki and the girls. They look like they have always been together.

ROFL.. love the pictures with the commentary!!! Pamy - Glad Houdini is doing better. Getting in trouble just means he's doing well.. just tell yourself that the next time you want to "bean him" figuratively speaking of course!!

Half.. those babies are adorable!

Misha doesn't even TRY to not look guilty. She taunts you. So... you chased me off the piano... well now come and get me up on the entertainment center! Neener Neener!!!! You think you're just going to sit there and type without ME getting any attention? FAT CHANCE HUMAN! LOL

Well, Ellie is slurping up the "drippings" from my chicken wing baking pan which I had left on the floor. Silly me! Hope she doesn't get sick!

She is so funny.

JujuKitty is getting bigger and is almost friendly.

I'm going to have to be a meanie and put Ellie out pretty soon. BooHoo!

Note to self: Get big roll of yellow crime scene tape for future.
Half, I have (had) a red chair that is now owned by the cats. I liked it alot, but they took it over. I had to go out and get a new chair at Ikea so I had somewhere to sit. Mr. Loki seems to have you well trained indeed!

Watching, Misha reminds me of Booboo; man, they can be tough on their humans. Booboo just laid on the floor and watched me clean up. She knows that I know better than to reprimand her - she will just hiss, growl, and scratch me.

Pamy, what a beautiful cat paperweight you have there! He looks like a pretty determined fella.
About the cats never going on the counter before, let me tell you that I do not believe there is a single spot in a home that a cat can't go and has not gone before, YOU just don't know about it!

Wendo, I keep all the cat foods in a large see thru lidded container, for good reason.
If I stare long enough, someone will feed me
I want food

I just prepped a few pix of my puddytats, so I'll upload them now, and I hope y'all enjoy them. I will say that they are about ready for another session at the groomers so then I will have after shots to compliment these before shots. (We get them shaved and they look so teensy and so cute.)

Bandy... my (funny-looking) sweet little sugar-cookie!




Scooty... playful and always ready for excitement.



The interesting thing with Scooty are her markings on one side - (when shaved it looks like an interlocking heart), and the total lack of markings on her other side:

Mame, I think the two sides with different markings are a camoflage for investigations after crimes.
One witness will say I saw a white cat with black markings on the ears - another will say I saw a calico with lots of orange markings. It will be at that point when you may be able to hear Scooty snickering off in a corner.
I got a nice cat bed for mine, they liked it for a week, then decided it was crap and won't go anywhere near it.
Shadoe trying out this new bed thing.
Shadoe in cat bed
Booboo in box for for her choice of cat bed
Booboo in box
Like Goldilocks, bed too soft, box too hard, YOUR chair is just right!
Their chair now

Saxy, Shadoe uses that same stare first thing in the morn. As soon as I move as I am waking, she pounds up on the bed and stands on my chest, her front paws on my throat and her nose sniffing my eyelids - I suspect she wants to hasten my waking because of course she is starving and the food in all those dishes are getting low.
I can't get a picture of her in the morn because she has taken a liking to the cam:
Oh nice! A new toy!
Shadoe chewing cam

ROFL!!! I love all the pictures and the commentaries with them make them just priceless!!

Misha gets scolded alright AND squirted with a squirt gun, but all she does is make the funny girgle in her throat noise and then she takes off! We do this race around the living room or around a chair or under the table, side-to-side and for a 10 lbs cat, she sounds like she weighs a ton since she just about gallops away on these hardwood floors! The dog has been getting wacky with her old age and we've had a hard time getting her to stop barking thinking she needs to be fed again and again and again, so I tried the squirt gun on her and she HATES IT. Works so much better on her than on Misha! Misha just licks herself off and says.. I DARE YOU!!!!!!

Last week I ended up putting her under a laundry basket and put a throw blanket on top of it to contain her since I didn't feel like going down to the basement to get her carrier. It got put down there for Thanksgiving and when the kids were down there my oldest DDs then boyfriend said he couldn't get over how Misha just walked right into the carrier and started tugging on the towel in there. She's a stitch!
