Pia, this is the last full summer day. You’ve napped all summer long!

. . . and your point, Mom? Why should today be any different?

Well, we were hoping you’d be the featured kitty today, but you’re napping. Again.

Can’t you find some other photo of me to use, maybe napping or not napping, or something?

Oh, sure. Yeah, we’ll do that.

Oh, Mom, lovely photo of the arm of the chair. Could you possibly have found a worse photo of me to use?

Careful . . .

Completely, COMPLETELY, uncalled for!

Was it?

9/20/2023 – That Tessa!

From this back in 2012 to this:

In the past month, Tessa has chased Viola twice, chased her own tail twice, swatted Quint and nearly caught his right eye (he got her back) and swatted at Olivia who simply wanted to sniff her nose. Tessa has slept on top of the boo-fay that no longer has a sleeping box on it because Tessa barfed in it twice. She slept on the pointy plastic that’s meant to keep cats off the top. Ha! She ain’t scared of point plastic protectors!

She’s knocked over boo-fay lamps, begged for ground turkey bits, thought she was begging for cheese (we’ve eliminated cheese this month), and pulled a piece of homemade coffee cake off Mom’s plate.

Tessa, you were a handful as a kitten and you know, you never lost that trait. Tuxies rule!

. . . and quite frankly, all its scurrying about, digging here and there around the base of those flowers you like, flinging teensy bits of bark mulch to and fro and in my general direction, mind you, all in search of a tasty grub or spider snack, disrupted my overnight sleep, and as I already have to tolerate the sniffing and scruffling of those stripey raccoon visitors that seem to think this yard is theirs night after night, well, I was not about to put up with the possibility of this invasive vole* growing to that size left unchecked, and giving me more grief than any sweet, visiting cat should have to deal with, so I pounced and deaded it for you.

You’re welcome. You may pet me now.

*No, we didn’t take a photo of the vole. Ewwww!
