Tabby Tuesday - Vet Visit

We're back. The computer we use for our blog, got taken over by dadbean. It has a DVD drive so he decided to help someone by backing up the things on her computer. The computer seemed to eat a lot of shiny disks and then spit them out - we would probably spit them out too.

Yesterday we got taken to the v-e-t. Check up time, they call it. Mom said I was very good and cooperative. Did you know da vet has treats? I got a pill and two - count 'em - needles in my butt. I was brave, a real mancat, ha. It was really annoying though. Da vet looked at my teefs, too. I gots weighed and I am 11.7 pounds.......I have been eating some of Mindy's food, I can't help myself. That means I gained a bit. I think I wear it well, ha ha.


I got to go too. I really hate going and our beans worried that I would not cooperate at all. They had lots of trouble getting me into the carrier. I can have some attitude when I want to show it! However, I really liked the vet, she was nice. I even purred when she was trying to hear my heart. The vet says I have developed a slight heart murmur. Now I has to have low dose aspirin twice a week to keep me healthy. I also got a pill and two needles in my butt too. I was just as brave as Moe. I even went with the vet out to the big (scary) room to get weighed. I weigh 8.8 lbs. The vet put lots of treats in my carrier. I was sure glad to get home. I had to go to my special place to think things over, but that didn't take long. Home is best though.

Sunday - Happy Easter

We want to wish everyone a wonderful Easter!

Feral Friday

We saw this ladybug walking on the computer desk. Mom says it could be a sign that spring is on the way. In fact spring officially started yesterday. You wouldn't know it right now, though, there are flurries of snow in the air. We also made mom turn up the heat.

Ahhhh, much better, I am toast-y now.

I like to hang out in the stairwell, about halfway up the stairs - or maybe it's halfway down the stairs.

Wonderful Wednesday

It is wonderful that the howling wind has stopped after two days. Mom said it could have been much, much worse. We were supposed to get snow along wif da wind, but it went offshore. We are lucky and the sun is shining - bonus.

Did you know that I have freckles on my nose?


Mom says she has a 'free' day, whatever that means. We do know that she got out some icky looking paste (goop she called it) and put it on da wall. She said she was patching da wall. Well, we just has ta check this out.




It sure doesn't smell very good.



Mom said we should try this instead.

Ummmm, we didn't like this either. Then mom showed us the catnip plant she has been growing inside all winter. Look how small it is, she sure doesn't have the growing knack, does she?

Late Saturday and early Sunday

We are having another winter storm, lots of snow out there. Our beans were busy all day. Mom bought a tester for wall plugs. Ever since then the beans are all over the house checking and checking. Dey found a few feet of old wiring dat dey thought ought to be replaced or removed. Does wiring has feet? We gots tired of watching them go upstairs and downstairs.......if dey went to the kitchen, well that's different. We kept careful watch, in case the cold box got opened - lots a good stuff in dare.

I kept my usual vigil looking out da window. I saws a tuxie cat out there near the bird feeder. I was about to show that intruder that he was trespassing, but mom went out just then to fill the bird feeders, but I coulda scolded and put the fear into that intruder.

Humm, okay, this is prolly not my best 'vigilant at the window' picture. Blogger did this!

My turn - Mindy - Since it was a 'stay put' at home day on account of da snow, I gots some lap time wif mom. That was until Moe disturbed me. He was chasing around like crazy at one point. Oh, that was too much for me. I just had to bounce off mom's lap and go see what he was doing.

Turned out to be nothing. However, Moe thought "I" was coming to whap him or something. Next thing he's chasing me and I had to run to my special hiding spot. Well, he knows where it is, but he never bothers me there. In fact I have several special spots, all mine, hee, hee.

Thursday Thirteen - Photo

This is a photo that mom took a couple of weeks ago when she went away for a few days. It is our Thursday Thirteen picture, because you can count at least thirteen ice fishing houses on this big lake. Mom said they even haf their pickup trucks on it. When dey gets their house out on da ice, they go inside and then cut a nice big hole in da ice (there's no floor, just da ice) so they can fish - inside in comfort. Beans are very strange, but if they's catches any fishies, we would be very interested.


For now I saw this package of Temptations just waiting for me on da countertop. I knocked it on da floor where it's easier to raid it. Yes, I got some!


Moe is always thinking of his stomach, and he doesn't like to share either!

I think mom might slip me some extra stinky goodness though.

Mancat Monday

Yo, Mindy, check out this pose. I'm putting it on our blog for Monday. Is this a suitable photo for a mancat picture?

Ah, well, Moe this is not a good time to ask. I'm kinda busy.

Sisfurs, sheesh! I didn't ask her give up her whole day ur anything, I just asked a simple question.

Doesn't Moe realize that timing is everything? He didn't pick a great time for my expert opinion. Oh, well, back to the important things.....looking good.

Saturday - Different

We are from the same litter of kittens, but we are 'different' too. Male vs. female. Orange vs. bicolor. Oh, well, vive la difference! Now where, oh where, is that missing Temptations treat??

Friday - Random Shots

It's still Friday, so now that we have mom to give us assistance, we will show you how we spent our day.

Mindy: - I'll go first. Mom washed these covers, said she wanted to do some hair removal. What, remove my furs? What's wrong wif covering my favorite things wif my furs?


Can you see the look of indignation that I gave mom?



Moe: - I have my own chair in a quiet corner of da room.....not next to Mindy.


Would you believe that I spent most of today in dis chair? Really good spot for keeping watch over everything that goes on.

So how did efurry one else spend their Friday?


We has a picture of our yard....what you see is not snow - it's hard packed ice. We hadded lots and lots of rain and then a freeze. The good news is - most of the snow is gone!



More Friday random shots. These are the last of mom's Christmas flowers, can you tell the sun was setting in this picture? Note: we had a beautiful sunny day!



Here's another sun setting picture - don't get carried away mom - these are two of mom's angels from her collection of four.



Gonna rains lots tomorrow (sigh.... although we're not going out, ha)

Thankful

We're thankfull that it's sunny and we don't have hours 'n hours of freezing rain like yesterday!


Do I look thankful?




I am thankful too!



From my top to my tail!
