GETTING IN THE HOLIDAY MOOD

T'was this time of the year again

as Ticklebear installed a few ornaments

for the upcoming holiday season.

I even got my own snowman!!

a nice touch....

Purrrrrring!!

POSTCARD

Ticklebear received these recently,

from Auntie Linoue,

whom i was never sure whether she was his half-sister,

or his ex mother-in-law or something else.

But i do know for sure

she has two kitties of her own:
Twiggy and Goliath.

It is always nice to hear from decent folks like these.

We've never actually met

but I've heard only great things about them.

They look pretty sedated here though...

Purrrrrring!!

HEY!! LOOK AT ME!!

I swear, sometimes,

I believe he takes me for granted...

I could leave, you know?!?

Hissssssing!!

WOW!! DO I HAVE I LOT TO TELL YOU, OR WHAT?!?

A lot has happened since we last talked,

trust me!!

Ticklebear and I moved out of the apartment in august

without him bothering to tell me.

To be quite honest,

I believe he didn't get much notice either,

as he became like a hurricane,

laying havoc everywhere he went

and things disappeared gradually out of the apartment.

I soon found out we were moving next door.

While he did most of the work,

[alright, all of it!!],

I felt exhausted just watching him.

Something was wrong

as Ticklebear just kept everything piled up in the new place

and he's usually fussy about his stuff

and how it is supposed to be arranged in a certain way.

Instead,

everything was helter skelter and he didn't seem to care.

Odd!!

I got the answer a week later

when we moved back in!!

It turns out we weren't relocating

but his old apartment was getting redone.

Now that explains all of the comings and goings i heard from next door,

and the funny smell which is paint, i was told,

something you put up on the walls and ceiling,

and everything is now white.

I like that!!

What i miss though is the wall to wall carpeting

as I skidaddle now on the new floors

and that annoys me immensely.

Ticklebear doesn't seem to miss the carpeting at all though...

But he did drive me crazy for a while

as he fixed up everything real fast.

Soon,

the apartment became livable again

and not a death trap for me.

Much grateful for that!!

But that wasn't the end of it,

as in the weeks that followed,

pieces of furniture kept vanishing and then,

strangers kept showing up with large boxes

which contained a lot of wrapping,

much to my delight,

and oh!!

Yeah,

the boxes also contained some new furniture...

Eventually,

there was less commotion

and things went back to normal,

finally!!

There is only so much a girl can go through.

Purrrrrring!!

SO WHAT? I'M CORRUPTIBLE...

SO?!

Because TICKLEBEAR gave me a couple of treats

so I'd indulge him for a few picture,

I lose all of my virtues?

I think not!!!

You should have seen the poor guy behind the camera,

doing silly stuff to get my attention...

Humans can be so pathetic sometimes!!!

Maybe next time,

he'll give me THREE treats!!!

And by the way:

The carpet needs vacuuming!!!

I've been shedding a lot lately...

Look into it!!!

Purrrrrring!!

A FUZZY FEELING

just because furry critters are funnier than humans...

and so dam cuter!!!!

admit it!!

you just love us!!!

Purrrrrring!!

DEEP THOUGHTS?!?

While some of you might think I am in deep thoughts,
well, nawh!!...
I was just staring at some bug on the screendoor,
and Ticklebear snapped a picture
with his new camera...
not eveything is as it would seem.
Purrrrrring!!

IT IS MY BIRTHDAY !!!!

According to the vet,
today would be like... my birthday!!!
Hurray for me!!
Time for frivolity and a snuggle maybe...
Where are my gifts?!?
Where's the luv???
A girl like me has expectations,
you know!?!
Purrrrrring!!

MUSIC FOR YOUR PUSSY

You'll never know what a single girl like me do at nitgh!!!
Alright!!
So, I may have surrendered my ovaries to the vet,
but a girl can still dream,
can't she?!?
Purrrrrring!!

WELL, THANKFULLY!!!...

That "paint your cat" business is a hoax!!
thankfully!!
'Cause I would hate it very much
should Ticklebear get any funny idea in that regard...
I am beautiful aplenty as it is!!
Hisssssing!!

A FINE MORNING THAT WAS...

T'was a fine morning to bask in the sun

but there was no peace for me

as my personal paparazzo was in my face...

Can't blame him for loving me.

I am that adorable after all!!

Purrrrrring!!

DINNER AND A SHOW?

So,
it was Ticklebear's birthday last friday.
Now i know it involves dinner and a show,
meaning,
him leaving me alone while he's having dinner with his friends,
and then,
he brings back his friends home
and as it turns out...
I AM THE SHOW!!!

I wish Ticklebear would have notified me about this.
Kind of rude to dismiss the importance
of communicating to me such things.
But I did him proud this time,
but there will be some payback,
eventually...

Happy birthday anyway to the Man!!
Purrrrrring!!

A ROOM WITH A VIEW

Springtime has arrived
and the patio door is now opened practically all of the time.
Birds are flying by,
people are walking by,
the breeze brushes against my whiskers
and I feel something inside
I just can't explain...

Ticklebear keeps an ever watchful eye on me,
and strictly forbids me to go outside.
I don't even know why he's like that with me.
It is kind of frustrating.
So...

Don't tell him what I do
while he's out...
Purrrrrring!!

DON'T BE FOOLED!!!

Pets can be cute,
but they also indulge in the oddest behaviour...
Too funny to watch though...
Purrrrrring!!

I THOUGHT YOU SAID THEY WERE HIRING!?!

I heard Ticklebear mentionning
there was a lack of personel at work.
I thought I could do my share to help out
at his job, and with the bills.
you know,
I don't want to be seen as a kept kitten...
Well,
my ambition of becoming a working girl have been squashed in the bud.

One morning,
when I jumped into his backpack,
he proceeded to remove me from there,
before running to get his cab
and go off to work.
Can't say I didn't try,
now,
can you?!?
Isn't it a bit macho on his part though,
to be the sole provider here?
I am an independant kitten, after all...
Hissssssing!!

WHISKING SOMETHING UP

Well,
you won't see me acting this way anytime soon.
It's quite the opposite
where Ticklebear tries enticing me
to eat one thing or another,
never serving the same thing twice in a row.
I've got him under my paw!!
Purrrrrring!!!

TOO CUTE FOR WORDS...

If you love kitties!!!
Purrrrrring!!

DOES THIS SOFA MAKE ME LOOK FAT???

Does this sofa makes me look fat???
Just look at the dent i'm making...
and of course,
TICKLEBEAR had to capture the moment.
Oh!!
The shame!!!!

But my evening [and my dignity] was somewhat salvaged,
as it was laundry day.
I love when he empties his laundry bag on the sofa
to sort things out and put them away,
smelling good and still feeling warm from the dryer.
Actually,
what is a dryer?
I've never seen one...
But, please notice how great i hide my full figure
in this pile of clothes.
You can barely see me,
so petite!!!...

But I'm still mad at TICKLEBEAR for that first picture.
Don't think you'll get away with this indefinitely.
There will come a time for payback.
Hissssssing!!
