Oliver Finds a New Cozy Place

Hewwo -- Oliver here. I found a new cozy place for naps and since I'm King Kitty and Boss around here I'm in charge of finding new cozy places.

My hoomans said that it's turned cold and crummy outside and there will be sleet. Not sure what sleet is but it looks icy on the street. Oh... maybe that's what sleet is.... hmmm, icy streets? Icy anything means cold! For sure when somekitty gets smacked with a falling ice cube from that cold thing my hoomans call a freezer. Brrr! 

Anywho, I found this new cozy place. It's here when daddy doesn't hang up his coat (which is most of the time, you know). He left it in one of my fave chairs and it's just the coziest -- the inside is yummy warm.

OK, now I've been found. And now I'm disturbed. My hoomans just won't leave me alone. I frown and look sideways at them but it doesn't do any good. Sooo.....

I'm outta here!

Those outside kitties don't know what they're missing.....

You Can't Rush a Cat

Hewwo -- Oliver here. I'm taking over Mommy's blog because she can't think of anything for the letter Y. But, since I'm the King Kitty and Boss around here (and you know I can read....) I had the bestest idea for Y. 

You Can't Rush a Cat!!

That Noli girl came over and wanted to do some puzzles.  

Mommy likes to do them with her and I like to snoopervise. 

So, here I am, snoopervising

They wanted me to get off the puzzle,

but I liked looking at the kitty....

and then look what I saw!

See the book -- remember I can read!

You Can't Rush a Cat!!

Hey, I already said that!

Meowzer!

I Don't Like Spiders and Snakes...

I about jumped out of my skin when I looked out my bedroom window and saw.....

THIS

So of course (knowing that you would truly enjoy some close-up spider shots) I grabbed the camera and ran outside.

I think their webs are quite fascinating

and they are neat to watch as they build their homes....

(from a distance, of course)

but I'm not so thrilled with the homeowner!

YIKES!

thank goodness for the zoom lens!

when I enlarged this shot, I could see the surprise Ms. Spider was about to leave me

This!! She decided that my bedroom window was a good place to leave her offspring!

I didn't agree.

No, that's not two egg sacs, just a reflection!

So I got hubby to go outside and knock the egg sac down to the ground. (I'm the one who freaks out at bugs of all types!) 

We thought that the babies could just as easily run all over the ground instead of our window -- where the screen, by the way, has a small hole in it. Baby spiders sharing my bedroom is NOT part of the program!

And I don't know about you, but I'm creeped out just writing this and dealing with those pics!

To combat more creepiness, I am leaving you with some cute kitty pics....

I'm sure you'd rather think of cute kitties than yucky spiders!

Hey, just be glad there are no snakes!!

This is Patio, Jr who apparently thinks rainwater is better than the water in the communal water bowl...

Midnight agrees!

Oops! Caught in the act!

I'll stare at you and bolt if you take one tiny step toward me....

(Thank goodness again for the zoom lens!!)

Quackers

Quack Quackity Quack!

Recently, we headed to the park to feed the quackers -- uh, ducks (and to burn off some Noli energy since she was spending the night...)

I kept telling her that she needed to tear the bread into little pieces!

Yikes! They're ganging up on her!

Even though I was using the zoom, I still got up pretty close to this one.

Pfptpfptpfptpfpt!! Blowing a raspberry at us!!

This one kinda scared me -- he was moving at a fast clip right at us!

Then we started around the lake, and stopped at our favorite tree to feed the ducks. We like to stand on the roots and Noli wonders why I won't let her get too close to the water's edge....

Don't worry, I won't fall, Mumsie!

Yeah, like I'm going to risk that!

and guess what Noli discovered!!

Aren't they cuties?!!

Noli kept asking where the mommy was

and I kept answering "I don't know!"

Is this the mommy??

Nope!

 Here she is! 

(and I can tell you, mommy is not a runway model....)

But she obviously loves those ducklings and watches over them with care...

C'mon kids, stay close to mama!

Noli makes extra duck footprints with a stick

and picks up a fluffy feather

Do you think ducks know to cross the street here? she asks  : )

I guess so.... they've got pictures!

Oliver goes to the Kitty Doctor

Hewwo -- Oliver here. I'm taking over Mommy's blog to tell you about a scary thing that happened to me. Don't get all cwazy -- it's not a bad bad thing, just a yucky thing.

I had a hurtie in my mouth -- I got one of my toofs stuck on something and I pulled and pulled and finally got away but my toof looked weally funny. I was not a happy kitty. 

I couldn't tell Mommy 'cause she doesn't always understand kitty-speak -- but she does get it when I go stand over my bowl and stare at it. I always get the foodies when I do that, hehe! But anyway, that gettin' stuck thing is what she thinks happened to my toof, and I think it was, too.

My bottom big ripper toof (you know the one -- like an upside-down vampire toof) was STICKING STRAIGHT OUT!!  Oh my, I sure looked funny and it wasn't too comfy either.

Mommy said she thought I looked weird -- like I was trying to be Elvis kitty with the sneer.... 

I looked as sad and hurtie as I could so she would know.  She tried to look in my mouth but I wasn't having anything to do with that! I smacked my tongue around and she had a pretty tuff time seeing in my mouth.

See how I can roll my tongue around? I'm pretty good at doing that! 

So Mommy and Daddy tooked me to the kitty doctor and I was kinda scared at first. I don't really like to ride in the people car and I did a lot of meowing. But that Noli girl was with me and that made me feel better.

I got weighed (oh gosh) and I'm a big boy at 12 pounds! The kitty doctor stuck something in my, um, you know, backside and that was kinda freaky but it was kitty fast and he said my temperature (whatever that is) was normal so I guess that's good.

Then he looked in my ears with a little flashy thingie and then the girl kitty-doctor-helper held open my mouth and I did the tongue smacking thing again but they couldn't find my funny sticking out tooth!

So the kitty doctor said I should have an x-ray. I don't know what an x-ray is but I guess I have one since he said I should...  Ummm, I don't know who that kitty is, but it's not me! Besides, it was my mouth getting the funny picture, not my insides. Anyway....

So Mommy and Daddy and Noli went to the waiting room and cheated on me with two baby kitties named Pearl and Ethel. Noli and the kitties little mama talked and talked about kitties and clothes, just like grown-up girls! 

When the kitty doctor came back, he said that the toof was all the way gone and shouldn't cause me any problems and I wouldn't have to have a toofs operation. Whew! (I was sneaky and swallowed that toofs)

But I'm having to eat canned foodies with extra water in it and I'm not too cwazy about that! 

And then Mommy and Daddy take this thing they call a syringe to squirt waters in my mouth where my not-there-toof was -- I do a LOT of tongue smacking then!

I'll be glad when this is all over and I can have my regular foodies again! and TREATS!! 

But I am back to looking like my always handsome mancat self!

He's Back!

Who did I see waiting for his breakfast this morning??

My sweet little black kitty!  After two whole days -- and nights -- in the wild!

I'm so thankful he is back.... I wish he would tell me about his adventure!

Still sad though, because the golden one is still missing.

But, since the bitty black one found his way back, I am hopeful that the gold one will too.

It's great to see him playing again!

It's a good day!
