Tuesday Tabby Talk

Ya know, I wonder what Daddy Peyton says to Cranky Ol Sour Puss Perry?
Not sure if Perry listens.
Wouldn't be the first time.
Oh well.
At least there is no hiss or fur fly

And that's a great thing in this house!
All is well on this Tuesday.

Mancat Monday More

Today Tommy does that dance she only does on Friday.
Hmm.
Turns out she took the day off and went back to bed!
Good thing she left the PC on.
Back to being a Mancat on this Monday.
Mommy gets aLOT of attention. I like showing her.
Brother Earl Gray shows he's the ManCat in charge today.

Mommy seems OK with that.
Me too.















Me 12 weeks old being a Guard ManCat in training.

Easy Just Like Sunday

Brother takes care of his sister.

Just like he does Sunday and everyday.

Uncle MaxMaxx and Mommy

Saturday Sleep In

So cold and windy here in Dallas today.

Tommy said she didn't have to go anywhere until afternoon.

So we all curled in bed and kept Tommy warm.

Tommy hit the TV remote to an old movie on TCM.

Come to think of it, TCM only seems to play old movies.

Hmm.

Anyway, it was Huckleberry Finn, with a guy named Mickey Rooney from 1939.

Tommy says the movie was made before she was even born.

Really?

She watched all of it. I did too....mostly.

OK, I slept through it...mostly.

Tommy liked it and I liked how all of us were warm.

Not bad for a Saturday.

So far.

Friday M-Cat Moment

WOW!

I am now part of the M-Cat Club!!

Nice little cat nip of a surprise.

Tommy mutters over and over

How she never knew there were SO many creative cats!

Hmm.

Tommy's human.

Tommy's gotta sniff beyond the litter box.

Anyway, back to ME!

Who woulda ever thought

This little itty bitty cat would

Be a member of any MANcat Club?

Tommy sure took good care of us.

She's not so bad.

Even if Tommy won't always share her ice cream.

She's human.

What do you expect?

Back to ME...

I am a M-Cat Member!

Ahh...Right There!

Tommy took a break from THAT dance she does every Friday.

Once again a ritual humans seem to do.

Tommy smiles whenever she does it, so

It must be good.

Tommy gave my Brother Earl Gray some back scratch action.

Looks like Tommy got it just right.

Once again, a ritual humans seem to do.

And Tommuy smiles more.

I like it.

Have a PURR-fect Friday!

Que the Tuxie & Tabby Thursday Quartet

Ya know, Tommy says we got Spring goin' on in full swing.

Not sure what all that means.

Tommy smiles when she says it. So it must be good.

For us, means just about every window is open.

And this time Me, Mommy, Brother Earl Gray and Uncle MaxMaxx took claim.

Tommy put a bird feeder right out side this window--and well-you know the rest!

I like this Spring thing.

Wordless Wednesday

(Maybe not so)Cranky Ol' Sour Puss Perry and my Brother Earl Gray

Keep the peace

On this Wednesday.

Me at 6 weeks old and wordless with Mommy's tail.

Tabby Tuesday ME!

Tommy says I look regal.

Like some long ago ancestor

In Egypt.

Don't really get that.

Gotta Google to see where Egypt is.

Tommy smiles when she says it tho.

So it must me good.

Regal.

I just know how

good it feels to be King.

ManCat Monday Microwave

Yep. Uncle MaxMaxx on the microwave

By the open window

For some bird shoppin'

And lookin' down at his food bowl.

Why isn't it full?

Priorities for my UncleMaxMaxx

I love him.

Just Easy Like Sunday

Brother Earl Gray and

ME and

Mommy.

How it's good to be.

Just like how I like it.

Easy on this Sunday.

Saturday Sighting

Is it a bird? A plane? Cat Nip Fairy?

Nope. It's a little flying thing Tommy says is a moth.

Uncle MaxMaxx and Mommy are intrigued.

Brother Earl Gray can't be bothered.

That little flying thing caused lots of action round here.

Tommy says she wishes she video'd us

But was too busy getting her '70's on.

Whatever. I don't know what that means

She's smilin' tho, so it must be good.

Besides, Tommy got the little flying thing out the door.

All was calm again.

And a bit dull.

Until....

Friday Fur ME!

After all this talk about Cranky Ol Sour Puss Perry not being as maybe cranky as he seems. And after pictures of the rest of my family on MY blog--I thought---HISS! This is MY blog! Sure, I want every body to see everybody--but I forgot ME!!! What if you all forgot ME??

So before Tommy started doing that dance she does EVERY Friday, I got her take this picture. Kinda like me behind a curtain. Tommy says it's like being the Wizard of Oz being behind the curtain.

I don't get that. But Tommy smiles while she says it. So it must be good.

So Tommy dances now, while I feel good that the world won't forget what I look like.

Happy Friday (from all of us!)!

Tabby Thursday Truce II

WOW! I couldn't believe it! Neither could Tommy.

Cranky Ol Sour Puss Perry being NICE to my Daddy Peyton!

>gulp!<

Tommy ran to get her camera. Tommy says she'd never seen C.O.S.P. Perry EVER do that to ANY of us! Perry licked Daddy Peyton's head and cleaned one of his ears real good. I jumped on the bed then. Perry just glared at me.

I jumped down.

Daddy Peyton had motor boat purrs! Tommy said Daddy Peyton's purr were so loud she was scared the neighbors would come knockin'!

WOW! Maybe there IS hope for us.

Maybe Cranky Ol Sour Puss Perry, really isn't as cranky as I think.

Maybe.

Tuxie Tabby Thursday Truce

Hmm.

Once again, Mommy and Cranky Ol Sour Puss Perry sit close.

He doesn't seem to mind.

And Mommy doesn't seem to be scared.

Maybe...just maybe

Perry really does like us.

Or maybe they're just interested in something

that crawls or walks near?

Naw. I wanna believe they've called

A truce.

Wordless Wednesday

Me and Mommy Wednesday Window Shopping

Top O the Morning!

Brother Earl Gray with his green beads. No worries. Tommy got em away before he ate em. Brother Earl Gray thought they were green cat nip.

Tommy says we are Irish today.

Don't really get that.

But Tommy is smilin' when she says it.

So it must be all good.

Have a PURR-fect day!

.

ManCat Monday

My Daddy Peyton.

Tommy calls him her "Sweetboy".

Daddy Peyton is named after a football player, Walter Peyton.

Tommy says the football player was called "Sweetness."

Daddy is pretty quiet. Keeps to himself.

But always curls close by.

Tommy says Daddy Peyton has the softest eyes.

Don't know what that means.

But Tommy smiles when she says it.

So it must be OK.

Daddy Peyton is a good ManCat.

Easy Like Sunday

My Brother Earl Gray.

Ready for a ManCat nap

After Tommy just fed us.

My Brother Earl Gray has the right idea

The best thing to do on Sunday:

Relax.

Saturday Story

Cranky Ol Sour Puss Perry told us a story today about Tommy. He said she was probably out doing more happy dances like she does on Fridays. I try to ignore Perry--but he had all of wondering what in the world he talked about. Perry is usual so full of hot air. Cranky and old and all.

Well, this time Perry told us how 3 years ago--way before any of moved in (and he said when he was happier) Tommy was real sick. So sick her vet put her in the hospital. Our ears perked up.

"What? Our Tommy?"

Turns out Tommy's vet had to operate on her heart, Perry said. Something about some valve had to be replaced. She was gone for 3 weeks. Perry and Sammy didn't know where Tommy was. Like one morning she fed them, left for work and didn't come home. A strange girl human came to feed them and clean their box. She was nice, but where was Tommy?

Perry said how Sammy and him were scared.

Then one day, they heard the door open and heard their names. TOMMY! Perry said he meowed and crawled all over her. For the first two weeks, Tommy slept on the couch, because of not being too strong to climb the stairs. Perry and Sammy never left her side.

Perry said today, March 14, is the anniversary of Tommy's operation. So he knew Tommy was out having a good time. To show how having a little heart operation doesn't stop nothing! Perry said, Sammy stuck around for a a few more months, until he knew Tommy would for sure be OK. That's when Sammy went to Heaven. In Tommy's arms.

Hmm. Perry still takes care of Tommy. He makes sure she's still OK. Maybe he isn't so cranky after all.

Us not leaving any room for Tommy"ll.

Friday All For Me

Tommy started to do that dance she does every Friday. I will NOT ever understand humans on this day. Tommy says she doesn't even care that it rains outside today.

Heck, I would. I like my paws dry!

Anyway, as Tommy dances to the beat of her different drummer, I get the Friday I like. Me and Brother Earl Gray were curled to Mommy this morning. And I just happened to be her kitten who got the bath. Yea, yea, yea, I'm a mancat--but I'm always her baby.

How can Perry not be nice to my Mommy? Oh yea, he's Cranky.

Happy Friday to my purr-fect pals and their humans!

Tabby Tuxie Thursday

Hmm. Me thinks Cranky Ol Sour Puss Perry does like us....a little. Eventho Mommy still runs after Perry if he steps too close to us. Mommy forgets Me and Brother Earl Gray are mancats now and not itty bitty cats anymore.

Perry sits real close to Mommy in this picture. Mommy let him sit there for a hot second. Never took her eyes off Perry.

Tommy says that's the closest Mommy and Perry have ever been. Of course, a second after Tommy took this picture, Mommy bopped Perry on the head.

Bye Bye Perry.

OK. Tommy says it is still a work in progress. I don't get that. I think Mommy just showed Perry who is REALLY the boss.

Wordless Wednesday

Me and my Brother Earl Gray

'nuf said.

Tuesday Turn

MINE!

Yep. Now I can look out the window.

I can see everything. Sometimes a orange and white cat comes by and stares at me. He's big boned like Uncle MaxMaxx. Tommy thinks he lives down the street. He runs when he sees Tommy with the camera. Oh well. In the meantime, I'll look at all the birds and the squirrels and everything until I get tired or its time to eat.

Life is good.

Mancat Monday with Mommy Too!

Me giving my Brother Earl Gray a bath.

Mommy watches just to make sure.

Tommy says we've grown so big

That she feels so protected with us on guard.

Yep, that's what we mancats do.

And Mommy?

If it weren't for her,

We wouldn't even be here

to BE mancats!

Mommy's our bestest girl.

Me and Mommy

Easy Like Sunday

Daddy Peyton takes his turn in the window.

Green grass and some blooms start to show.

Delightful Dallas Day!

Not too hot, not too cold.

Tommy opened every window just for us!

Sundays should always be like this!

Who is attached to that tail in the window???

ME!

Almost a Spring Saturday...almost!

Cranky Ol Sour Puss Perry likes to remind us how GOOD he had it--like way before we even showed up. Perry says Tommy lived in a place where he just sat and watched the world go by. With all her plants. No worries about us or anything. Just him and Sammy and Tommy. He said it was more quiet it then too. And how he loved Saturdays, especially Spring Saturdays, cause Tommy was home and they could just be together. Hmm. I tell him its that same way now. Just better because of all of us are here for him and Tommy. Cranky Ol Sour Puss Perry just shakes his head and takes over a window. In the bottom picture, you gotta look real hard to see Perry in the corner--then there's Sammy. I bet Sammy was nice. Had to be, to put up with the Cranky Ol Sour Puss.

I really do like Perry. Wish he liked me.

So Friday

Mommy sits in Tommy's PC chair.

Sometimes Tommy just sits by Mommy and works on the PC. Mommy doesn't seem to mine.

Not today. It's Friday.

And Tommy does her Friday dance and holler. Why do humans seem so happy on THIS day?

They got US every day--do they dance and holler then? Hmm. They should.

We work hard to get our purr on.

Oh well.

Tommy fed us. Fed the birds. Cleaned our boxes. She's happy.

Let the Weekend come on in.

Thursday This

Uncle MaxMaxx

Wanted to show

He could do something more than just well...cat nap. :)

Uncle MaxMaxx was stretched up doing his best gaze out the infamous window by Tommy

As she did her PC work.
Uncle MaxMaxx wanted to shock Tommy enough so she would stop and pay attention to him.

So Uncle MaxMaxx stood up.

Literally.

Crazy Uncle.

Wordless Wednesday

ME being the cutest furr-ball Tommy says she's ever seen!

Honestly, Honest on Tuesday!

Our wonderful friends The Monkeys aka Samson and Delilah gave us this award; The Honesty Weblog award/meme

It comes with these rules: “When accepting this auspicious award, you must write a post bragging about it, including the name of the misguided soul who thinks you deserve such acclaim, and link back to said person so everyone knows who he or she is.

Choose a minimum of 7 blogs that you find brilliant in content or design. Or improvise by including ones who have no idea who you are because you don’t have 7 friends. Show the 7 random victims’ names and links and leave a harassing comment informing them that they were prized with “Honest Weblog.” Well, there’s no prize, but they can keep the nifty icon. List at least ten honest things about yourself. Then, pass it on!

10 Honest things is a lot! Oh well, may as well get started. First the brag. Hmm. I feel I so deserve this award because I'm quite the cool, cute, cuddly (when I let Tommy hold me) ManCat--and I'm honest about my purr-sonality!

The 10 things:

1. 5 other cats live here. I ain't listing 10 things about each of them. Being honest.
2. When Tommy's in bed I like to sit right her pillow and stare at her. She wakes up and sees me and says "Baby Noir."
3. I like to sleep in the round, green cat bed. No other one--just this one.
4. Tommy has a bowl for each one of us. I get mad when I don't get the RIGHT bowl.
5. I like to mess with Tommy when I drop a toy at her feet. I just stare at her.
6. I like the sound my claw make on the shower door.
7. I like baked chicken.
8. I love taking care for the the 5 other cats that live here.
9. I'm glad Tommy is home tonight because we watch American Idol.
10. When I get tired of looking at Tommy in bed. I lean against her legs to sleep. She tells me I'm heavy.

Now for the passing out of awards....
What a Good Cat
Poppy Q
Grrreta

And I have 4 more awards to go...to be continued!

Thought on Tuesday

This is Mommy. She is so focused on something outside. Tommy has bird feeders everywhere--so I'm sure a bird or even squirrel has Mommy's eye. Maybe Mommy's thought is if she were in a jungle--how she would run and pounce on her prey and drag it back to her lair. Instead, she pounces and carries one of Tommy's Beanie Babies (Mommy seems to like a green bear best) and drops it at Tommy's feet. A jungle is where ever you want it.

Mancat Monday Triple Threat

Brother Earl Gray in front.

Uncle MaxMaxx IS the middle.

Daddy Peyton off to the right. Yep.

Protecting our house.

Like all good Mancats do!

It's just Monday---relax.

Easy On Sunday

....with the eyes. Mommy, Uncle MaxMaxx and Cranky Ol' Sour Puss Perry tried to get their curl spots on Tommy's bed.

Well, something happened --as usual-- so they all gave each other 'the eye.'

Tommy laughs and says she wouldn't know what to do if the Mean Three didn't have a daily tussle. Tommy likes Sunday. We're all together. It's quiet and just a little easy.

I like it too.

And so does Uncle MaxMaxx. He gets easy anywhere anytime.
