I've been cut off!

I am no longer allowed in the bathroom. All because the humans don't like me doing this:

It's not my fault that the waste basket in there is filled with empty toilet paper rolls (SO fun to play with) and used q-tips (SO delicious to munch on) or that the toilet is full of water for me to stick my paws into and make it go *splish-splish-splish*. If God didn't want me to play in the bathroom, he would have filled it with vacuum cleaners and snarling dogs!

Banning me from the bathroom is an outrage. An OUTRAGE, I say!

Box of Safety™

Like I mentioned, the girl-type human was away visiting Vegas for the past few days. At first, I was very upset that she was gone and spent a great deal of time pouting in the corner of the bedroom. Then I started to worry that the man-type might leave too so I stuck to him like glue! Luckily, he didn't leave and the girl-type came back on Monday night. So all is well again!

I have mentioned my Box of Safety™ previously and figure that it is time to write up a proper post about it. It's pretty neat! To the outside observer, it's just a plain ol' box. And that is exactly what it is when I am not in it.

 

However, an Invisible Force-field of Awesome envelopes both the box and myself as soon as I jump into it. Nothing can harm me -- MUAHAHAHAHA! It makes me feel very good and safe; it also gives me a primo view of the yard. I think I would like to have a few lasers mounted on the box so I can shoot those annoying squirrels who think they're all that and a bag of catnip.

Finally: I'm giving a meow-out to my buddy, Billy the Cat! It's his birthday and he's a whole two years old! I hope he gets all the Fancy Feast he can handle! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

A Day in the Life of a Kitten

I spent some time last night putting together a video of what I do during the course of a day. I couldn't put in everything of course but this is a good snapshot. I chuckled when I noticed that Vimeo used the scariest looking screen grab in the entire video as the thumbnail. Do not fret, though! There's only a little bit of fierceness in the video; it's 99.9% cute.

(UPDATE: I swapped out the thumbnail with something that wasn't quite so frightening)



This will be my last blog post until Monday night or Tuesday morning. You see, the girl-type human is going to Vegas and she's leaving me in charge of taking care of the man-type who is staying home with me. This is a big responsibility! He needs a lot of attention and care so I doubt I will have time for anything else other than looking after him.

See you next week!

Hello, vet!

Today, the girl-type human took me to a place called Vet. There were lots of strange animal smells but everyone was really nice and gushed about how handsome I am. And it's true! I am very, very good looking. Ridiculously so, if I do say so myself (and I do).

Don't worry, gentle readers! There's nothing wrong with me. I just went in to get microchipped so I am very high-tech now. I'm pretty sure it will give me bionic super powers! I will keep you informed on that front; perhaps I will take up vigilante crime-fighting! What do you think? I already have a mask! HA!

Last night, the girl-type human (you know, I really should name my humans) hung out with Work for a long, long time. She didn't get home until almost midnight! I was sooooo happy to see her! I followed her everywhere she went; she thought I was trying to trip her but I was just trying to flop on her feet to get her to stop a minute and give me some love. Then? Then?! Almost as soon as she got home, she went out again! I sat by the door and cried and cried and cried. She must have heard me because she came back after only a minute, carrying something called Mail in her hands. Let me tell you, though -- that was the longest minute ever! EVAR!

Sometimes, I am kind of like a dog

There's a game I like to play with the girl-type human: FETCH! It's great fun. She takes one of my furry mice, shakes it so it rattles and then throws it across the room! I go after it, punish it with my claws (take THAT, you foul fiend!) and then bring it back to her in my mouth so we can do it all over again. I only like to play this game with that very specific toy but she doesn't seem to mind that I am picky!

Sleeping arrangements

I just can't seem to decide where to sleep at night. On the humans' bed, of course, but where? Sometimes, I sleep at the foot of the bed between one of the human's legs (usually the man-type's). Sometimes, I sleep on top of the girl-type's pillows or on her head. Sometimes, I burrow under the pillows completely so only my tail shows. But I think my favorite, so far, is to sleep all stretched out between the two of them.

Although, I will say this: I like it best of all when one of them gets out of bed altogether. Because then I take over their entire side and that is delicious.

There is something living in the drain

Last night, I was hanging out in the bathtub (as I am inclined to do from time to time) when I noticed something down in the drain. I don't know who or what it is but I know that I must defend my home against it! I attacked the drain like the Fierce Kitten that I am; while I did not manage to capture it, I definitely made it very aware that I will not put up with any of its shenanigans.

In other news, some folks have asked me what I do all day. Let me tell you, I am one busy kitty! In addition to keeping an eye on the bathtub drain, I flop-n-roll at my humans' feet, play with the water in the sink and show that feather toy who's boss. It's tiring work but someone's got to do it!
