Man Cat Monday Marvel


Me and Uncle MaxMaxx

The marvel is Uncle stretches from our perch
To the window--see his feeties? He wanted to be IN said window
For a better view of Rocky the Squirrel munching at a bird feeder-
Alas Perry already struck his claim---the hiss proved it--
Uncle MaxMaxx and Perry IN the same window ain't happenin'
Hence the stretch--Man Cat Monday Marvel--indeed!

Just how it should always be
Especially when that moment is Sunday!

Stretch Up


My Daddy Peyton

As he pulled himself up the chair where Tommy sat
While she Google'd for everything feline-no doubt!
Daddy Peyton proceeded to prop himself on Tommy's shoulder
Then he revved up his motor boat purr and headbonked Tommy's cheek-
Tommy melted (of course!) and as if on cue---
Tommy pulled the bag of Friskies' Party Mix from her desk shelf...
Purrs. Cats. And Humans--sometimes they do get it!

Happy Saturday!

Fine Fone Friday


Perry and friend
Yea, me-Perry-the elder cats-man in this house
But I even know this kinda phone is SO 20th century!
I mean, its not even wireless, cuz the wire goes into the wall.
Where's our iPhone?
And the touch screen so I can read Noir's Tweets
Or be nosey on Tommy's Facebook page and for
Priorities sake: order pizza?
My paws don't work so hot on this antiquey kinda phone-
I dial two number together.
Ain't feelin' none of this, except
It still is FRIDAY and trust me,
Tommy will be schooled on Phone.
Happy Friday everyone!

Tabby Trash Talk 2-- Tommy Talks


Hello everyone!

Noir was nice enough to let me peek at comments left about the blinds. I admit I got a chuckle or two. Because I was pretty positive the blinds wouldn't move an inch. Just like they've not moved since dinosaurs roamed the Earth. And besides, today's episode of Young and Restless beckoned along with a dish of Blue Bell Cookies n Cream Ice cream--until--Noir threw me one of his looks (His "I don't look you in the face look, but you know this is about YOU look). Then Noir proceeded to the blinds, sat beside them and stared at them. Noir stared at those blinds almost like MaxMaxx eyes the food dish. Then Noir raised his left front paw and there in the dust on the blinds, my cat wrote his name. When finished Noir looked at me, then past me as he mosey'd from the room.

The blinds await, with the other trash--curbside.

Cats. It amazes me how they can roll.
--Tommy

Tabby Trash Talk


None of us look at Tommy as she points that camera-again!
Not Brother Earl Gray. who just kinda looks down, Mommy or ME-
But I'm too busy checking out the broken window blinds
Will Tommy get them to curb on trash day?
Which is Friday. And the next trash day after that is Tuesday.
Since the window blinds got layers of dust over them-
What do YOU think?

Tabby Thru You


Me checkin' on Uncle MaxMaxx
Tommy got this toy at a boo-teeq called Wal-mart
Uncle got all inner kitten and went NUTS-
Our floors shook when Uncle ran thru
As he made inside to this new toy
Uncle wanted me to get in with him-
But ya know, with Uncle being all 'big boned'
I didn't think we could both squeeze in there-
So I hit bed behind him to catch a snooze.
You can kinda see ME in the pic below-
Uncle MaxMaxx seems cool with it
Why?
'cause Uncle faces the kitchen where our food bowls are!

Saturday Cat Trek


Psst. Perry...PERRY!
Kid, you're botherin' me! You see me tryin' to snooze.
Yea, yea, I know. But look!
Don't feel like lookin,' Kid. Just tell me what's got your whiskers whistlin'-
Tommy's got a sack of treats. Those good crunchy kind!
WHAT?
Yea, but Tommy's ain't opened em yet. We gotta get em!
Gotcha Kid. For once I'm listenin' to you. Go on.
Maybe if you play with my tail. Tommy will melt 'cause she likes that cute goo and..
Tommy will think I've lost MY mind. She's knows I can't stand you!
Hey, Mommy says you do too stand me. You're up here aren't you?
Had my back to ya, until you started yappin'!
Well, yea, but Mommy said...
Well, Kid, I say, we use our cat-o-listic fabulous mystical magical powers
To land those tasty eat em all up treasure o' treats!
We should, Perry?
Yep, we should, Kid. In the words of Captain Jean-Luc Picard: Engage low beam lasers!

Friday For All


It's Friday.
Was gonna get all long winded
On how I'm Noir the Notorious Tabby Tiger
That stalks birds by day and
Then Tommy's Beanie Babies by night...
Alas, I decided I just want to showcase
My best girl: Mommy cuz she puts up alot round here!
She sits with my Daddy Peyton up top
And eyes not as cranky ol' sour puss Perry at bottom-
Hmm.
At least Mommy likes one out of the two tabbies... :)

Right?

Room With a View


Different kind of photo-
See the outline of a cute kitty on the left?
ME!
And if you look real REAL hard-
From the view from one of our windows-
There's mourning doves and a girl cardinal in a little tree!
Tommy says she may enroll in some photo class afterall-
Which means I'll be duckin' and runnin' more than I do now!
Nonetheless, I kinda like the photo-
Noir the Notorious Tabby Tiger stalks his prey
Yes indeed. I'm a cat. That's how I roll.

August 11, 2009

Take Two Tabby


Uncle MaxMaxx with my Brother Earl Gray.
Hmm.
What could they be chattin' about
Besides how Uncle should get more room
To spread all his wares....
Whatever it is, I don't think Brother much listens-
What do YOU think?

Man Cat Monday


Noir, just what are you doing?
Humans-why can they be so nosey?
I mean, come on Noir. Not one of your best faces!
Why do humans think cats gotta have kute kitten-y faces all the time?
You feel, all right Noir?
Can't a man cat begin to yawn if he needs to?
Well, you look like you're OK...
Of course, I'm OK-Egads! Need a deeper reason, than a yawn, for this face? Well, maybe I didn't like the garage re-do, one of the groups came up with on Next Design Star last night!
Hmm, maybe some treats will help you, Baby Noir. Just in case.
Now, that's what I'm talking bout! And it's Baby Man Cat Noir, to you! Maybe humans will get it-Someday.

Say What?


Mommy says today is World Cat Day, Noir!
Hmm. Tommy says it's always World Cat Day in our house!
Yea. It kinda is. But Mommy says we gotta realized how blessed we are.
Huh?
See, not every kitty has a house or a Tommy to love and feed them.
Well...
And remember Mommy tells us how they slept outside, under those steps? Before Tommy moved her, Daddy and Uncle in. They were just itty bitty?
I guess so.
If it hadn't been for Tommy-Where would they be? Where would WE would be?
I get it. We're lucky!
Mommy says we're BLESSED. Every kitty, everywhere should have the same as us.
Humans really need to get it, don't they?
Yep alot of em do, but gotta pray for the ones that don't know what a kitty can bring to em.
You got that right. Happy World Cat Day, Brother Earl Gray!
Happy World Cat Day to you too, Big Brother Noir!

HAPPY WORLD CAT DAY TO ALL!

To get by with a little help from your friends!

When it comes to taking a snooze fest-
First with a curl up next to Mommy-
Then with another coupla good friends: Bear and Cow
It's Friday and it
Don't get any better than that....

...cuz where cats. That's how we roll.

Tabby Talk Part 1


Dude, what is up with you? You hated me since the start!
Nope, Max I don't hate you. Don't like you much, but don't hate you.
Why? What did I ever do to you?
Hey, Tommy let you in. And you had to be all kitteny cute!
Huh?
Oh, yea. I remember. It was little after Sammy went to Heaven and..
Word tell, he hated YOU!
Sammy did not! Yea, some tension but we' curl at times. I hated he got sick
Perry, we've never curled. You just air swat at me.
Hush, I'm talkin'! From the first second you saw Tommy...
I was all over her! Tommy just seemed so nice and like she loved me right off.
That was the problem...she DID.
And Tommy smelled like vanilla!
Hmm. Is that why you hog the bottom of the ice cream bowl when it's vanilla?
Hee, Hee. Whatever dude. The deal is you are jelly-US! Green ain't your color! .
Nope. Ain't either. Grown man cat-City Tiger of this Jungle, I am and..
Me and my sister and chum Peyton all moved in! Ruined your style!
As I said-
And I say, that blew your fur covered brain. Then my sister had babies!
Grrr. Those four little mice were born. Two of em left, but, ugh- the worst ones stayed!
Those are my nephews, dude-watch your fangs!
Watch the tail,fat boy! You know I'll swat you in hot cat nip second!

Will Perry and MaxMaxx make up?
Will MaxMaxx roll over and crush Perry?
Will they both forget any of this cuz Tommy shakes the bag of treats?
Stay tuned.
Same cat time!
Same cat channel!

Take A Turn Tabby


Hello everyone- Edie here-aka Mommy!
I've read some of your comments and glad y'all seem to like Noir
Even with that notorious tabby tiger business of his!
I will answer a question posed by our neighbors, the Kitty Crew
Because Tommy is too busy chasing dust bunnies all over the house
And Noir would NEVER answer--ahh, man cats! :)
OK, the Kitty Crew asked j
ust who is what to who (or is it whom?)
When it comes to MaxMaxx and Peyton
MaxMaxx is truly my brother and protects me still-just like when Tommy first spotted us
Peyton is Noir and Earl Gray's daddy. Look real hard, and deep in their fur see Peyton's ginger

That's all for now! I've enjoyed being The Cat Who Wrote On A Blog...:)

PURRS!

Me with Uncle MaxMaxx
The Nifty Nephew and his Ultimate Uncle
Do our do to bond-just a wee bit more
Food has been chowed
Birds have been watched
And we let Tommy love on us
And now gotta get some all important relaxation so-
Food can be chowed
Birds can be watched
And we let Tommy love on us
For as long we let her
You see, we're man cats
And that's how we roll.

Perry is the head honcho cat round these parts
He comes close to us if he so desires,
While we hafta think bout 20 times
Before we even LOOK Perry's way
But it is better--kinda--sorta

How head honcho cats
Take it easy
Just as it should be-
Like especially on a Sunday

Saturday Sure


Tommy's hands were full with stuff...OUR stuff!
Bag of our fave-o-rite dried food with treats of canned cuisine
As Tommy put OUR stuff on the countertop
And even the backyard birds' food-
Something was missing-
Tommy sighed, looked at me and said:
"Noir, why don't y'all have jobs?"
Why? Our job is to let YOU love us!
With that, Tommy sighed again, tickled my ear and headed to her car-
And then hauled in the thought forgotten item:
Our 40 lb bag of Tidy Cat!
Job well, done my Human!
For Tommy's good work,
I looked right at her during a photo shoot
The flash didn't flash. So Tommy tried to doctor the photo-
Hey, do what ya can-
'cause who knows when another
Saturday will stir me for such a sure thing
I'm a cat. That's how I roll.
