Rock Star Monday

Moe:  I think I'm a good singer, just listen

Of course, I need to practice a bit more.  How about this?

Can you hear me?  How do I sound?  Turn up the music!

Mindy:  Good thing I am in another room!

You know, I think this rug pattern is almost as nice as my pattern furs, mine are better of course!

Mike:  Big decision, do I stay here and get comfortable....or....

...... do I head to the kitchen and convince the 'beans I am starving?

Cookie: Nice head scritch dadbean, with your foot, almost got the right spot.

However, a little more to the right would be perfect!

************

In our yard today, we saw the pheasant chicks from our window, they are getting almost as big as their mom and dad!

One more photo, yesterday evening, mombean captured this gorgeous sunset and we want to share it with everyone.

Hope everyone is having a good Monday, ours is very hot and sunny again.  However, tomorrow it will rain and be much cooler, but we need the rain.

Last Sunday in August

Mike:  What can I say, it's Sunday after all.

Moe:  Ah, this is the life!

Cookie:  Fresh air and sunshine, nothing better.

Mindy:  I have a special hiding place underneath the old refridgerator , but mombean found me - how did she know I was here?

PS - the old fridge still works.

Bonus photo:  this little hummingbird will very soon be heading south for Fall and Winter, but she will return next Spring.  She is visiting the feeder on our deck, storing energy for the long flight - see you next May little hummer.

Wordless Wednesday

Note: possibly they are thinking .......that 'nip leaf is mine!..........no, it's mine!

Wednesday Evening

It has been a quiet day here for all of us.  Then we realized that we are behind in our blog posts.  We didn't do much today, except try to avoid any kind of exertion.....it's summer and we like to park ourselves and watch our birds, squirrels and the chipmunk from our windows.


Cookie:  I think mombean got the best photo - of me!   I was able to go out on our deck today.  There is some giant grass beside the deck that I got to chew on.

Mike: Oh hi everybody.  It's such a loooong time until someone (usually mombean)

 goes into the kitchen - then I am able to stir myself into action and hopefully snag a snack. 

Moe:  I am sitting on our ESS waiting for someone to get me some of our homegrown catnip - our plant is really TOO big so I think it needs a trim.

 

I will gladly accept any and all trimmings,  just pop them here on the ESS and I will take care of the excess nip.

Mindy: I am upstairs where it is peaceful and quiet and the mancats are downstairs.  However, if anything exciting should happen I can be downstairs in a flash!

Hope everyone's Wednesday, or perhaps by now I should say Thursday is great.  Mombean is going to be out Thursday, getting things done.  So, us cats will look after things here.

World Cat Day!

Today is - World Cat Day!  All four of us kitties want to help celebrate, so we 'borrowed' Mitalee's lovely badge so we can do our part on this special day.

Mindy, Moe, Cookie & Mike

Tabby Tuesday - Goodie Bag

We won a Goodie Bag in mid July from The Poupounette!  It came into our mailbox yesterday all the way from France.  They had a special draw for their blogoversary and Bibi-Chan picked the paper with our name on it.  We are very excited to see what is inside.

Mindy:  I was the first one to appear when the package got opened.

Beside the yummy looking  cheese flavoured Catisfactions, I am 'claiming' the pink Crinkle Critter which looks a lot like a tabby cat except I am lying on it so you can't see it well.

Here comes Moe to see what I have.

Moe:  Wow, Mindy, we certainly won a lot of lovely things.  Some to play with and some to eat!
Do I detect the scent of catnip?


 Yes, yes!  It's coming from the Cosmic Catnip Banana!   Oh, how intoxicating!  Oops, I managed to put a few teef marks on it!  Also on the nip-filled fishy!

Oh, oh, I just found the Whiskas treats, and I am rubbing my cheeks all over the package because I would love to chow down on this, but mombean says I need to share it. 

Aso I has to share the HubaBuba formaggio, which by feeling the package seems to be cheese balls! I can hardly wait - 'nip and cheese are the best!

Cookie:  I heard all the comotion!  I just have to check out this box, make sure nothing is left inside

I, too, like that nip banana!  Maybe I'll take it back to the office and put it in my favorite chair.

I think I will add my own teef marks!

Mike:  Did someone say that there is a nip banana in the package and did I hear mombean say we need to share?

|I am going to rub my cheeks on this nanner too!  I think Moe hid the fishy, but I'll find it!

There was something for our mombean, too - butter biscuits, she likes those!

Hope everybody else is having as good a day as we are!!

PS    we just noticed that it is our 600th post.....all these good things are a good way to celebrate.

Saturday Photo Hunt - *Jokester*

This is a photo mombean managed to find (unfortunately) for this week's Photo Hunt theme.  Yep, silly hat time.  That is me, Moe, with Tall Son taken a while back.  You can see how happy I am to pose for this photo session.

The 'jokester' moved out of our home and  into a home of his home!

Wordless Wednesday, Supper Edition

It's wordless Wednesday, so perhaps we'll count out our words carefully so we won't change our post to Wordy Wednesday.

The photos are from last evening.

Here's Cookie working hard, in the office, at napping!

Moe and Mike are in the kitchen, hoping supper will get started soon.

Mike:  Hope it's a question of when not 'if ' supper will be started.

Moe:  I'm getting tired of waiting!

Mindy:  I'm watching, and if there is food - I'm there too. 

 
 I'm just not so obvious as Mike and Moe.  Mike is loud, and louder and Moe is pushy and runs over and  headbutts  our 'beans.  There is no way Mike & Moe would ever led our 'beans forget something as important as our supper!

Mancat Monday, a little Nip

Moe:       My mombean saw how big our catnip plant is getting, so she harvested some of the leaves.  She saw how excited I was to smell the fresh catnip on her fingers so she put some on our Ess.

Ah, such bliss! 

I am simply crazy for catnip, mmmmmmmm!

I think this year's plant that she got at the market is especially powerful, ahhhh.

Excuse me while I zone out for a while. 

Meanwhile you can check out the yummy fresh haddock mombean bought from our neighbour - he went fishing over the weekend. 

 
 We kitties love fish, and we're sure our beans will share some, 'cause it is good to share. Yum!
