Photo Hunt - Original

We are posting some original photography created back when our mom was first messing with graphics programs 'n havin some fun.

Where We Live

We thought you might like to see some photos mom took yesterday when she went for a walk. It was a nice warm and sunny day. This is someone out for a sail.




These people were busy putting a boat into the ocean. You can't drink ocean water, it's too salty. This wharf is not far from where we live, which is at the head of a big bay.















This is another view of the boat launching.
















Boats tied up at the wharf.














This is a working fishing boat and belongs to the man that lives next door to us.
















This one also belongs to someone who fishes for a living

















Mom remembered a verse about a cat being in a boat - a nonsense poem. Here it is:

The Owl and the Pussy-cat went to sea
In a beautiful pea green boat,
They took some honey, and plenty of money,
Wrapped up in a five pound note.
The Owl looked up to the stars above,
And sang to a small guitar,
'O lovely Pussy! O Pussy my love,
What a beautiful Pussy you are,
You are,
You are!
What a beautiful Pussy you are!'

(by Edward Lear)

Breakfast on Thursday

We got up at our usual early o'clock for breakfast. Moe had his dish in one room and mine in another, nearby. Oh boy, we's hungry. Never thought mom would get us breakfast on time. Hadda remind her it was morning, it was TIME - to eat.






Moe eats fast. I don't think he savours his food at all. Just inhales it. Next thing he's over at my dish digging a paw in and scooping my crunchies. Well one at a time, but still, it's so annoying. He's such a hog pig! Those are mine.










Then, with only a few crunchies left, he panics and puts his whole face in. Can somecat, out there, help me get his face outta my dish?

Wordy Wednesday

We're both on patrol. It's really important this morning because it's a beautiful day, that means lots of visitors to our yard. We soon discovered Angel cat from next door - in our yard! We did our best growling ever. Here he is leaving our precious yard.









Good, we scared him off. Job done! Now, that's gotta be worth a few Temptashions, don't you all think so?

Tabby Tuesday

Mom gots a new flashy box, so she wants to go crazy puttin up photos. Ok, we let her put up a couple wifout us in da pics.

This one is taken thru our kitchen window. This is one of our favorite windows to look out. It is early yesterday morning, but way late for our breakfast. We like to get mom up when it is still dark. She doesn't like that. (Note from Mindy - Moe is the one that bugs mom to get up. Now if breakfast IS served, I'm right there too!)





The next picture is taken same day, also east, after sunset from our front yard....almost a full moon.















This is the time of day we hafta keep a watch out the windows. I'm sure I saw something out there. Maybe the racoon is back. While I was watching out the screen door, Mindy took my spot on the chair. I have it piled with cushions just the way I like it. She wouldn't move, so I went back to the window ledge. Next stop kitchen, all this watching and guarding is making me hungry. She can have the chair.




















Well, there was no way I am going to give up this stack of cushions to Moe. It is so comfy here.















Moe thinks about food 24/7......yep, even in his sleep.

Mancat Monday

It's mancat Monday again. Ok, I'll let mom get a picture of me. Now I hafta go and do some serious napping - er, while keepin' n eye on things a course.

Easy Like Sunday Morning

We're having a nice quiet morning. Later I'm going to get mom to go to the store. I saw cat grass on sale in this week's grocery flyer. Two pots for the price of one, I'm a good shopper.....Mindy

















I can rest easy now, I've managed to get mom up and feed us breakfast. I didn't even have to dive bomb her feet while she's lying in bed, like I usually do, to get her up. I'm going to take a nap now. Mom is still up, I wonder why she doesn't go back to bed? ......Moe

Photo Hunt - Paper

This weeks Photo Hunt is paper. We have lots of paper here, oodles 'n oodles. I was helping mom empty storage boxes - 33 of them. These cartons were in storage she said for thirty (yes, 30!) years. No, they weren't ours, we just got the job of unpacking and sorting. My main job was to "help".



I was hoping for some fun stuff to play with. Nope it was all very boring.

There was so much paper, and it smelled funny. Mom thought so too. She filled about twenty blue bags for recycling. The cartons are kind of a paper as well. I didn't find any cool cat toys to play with. Mom needs to find a home for some of this stuff, so she going to have a yard sale. Maybe with the proceeds us cats can get some treats - sounds like a plan.

Fashion Friday

Well we’re no fashion divas , so we’ll go with Formerly Feral. I’m over the feral kick, tho, guess you could say. However, these toes are not exactly fashionable , but they are CLEAN. Mom says they need nail trimming. Hope she gets so busy she forgets about that……Moe

















Fashionable, nawh. I’m going with cute. I couldn’t find a dimple tho. Rule out cute. My nose is two different colors – rose and pink - does that give me character?…….Mindy
