Woohoo! We Gets Yellow Treats!

I was not such a very good kitteh this weekend.

I bited Mom on the hand, and then I brokeded one of the keys on her laptop, and she never found it again.

She e-mailed Dad to let him know, because she was worried maybe I ated the key. And you know what Dad said?

He said, "Well, we could dissect him to find out." Dad thought that was funny. Now, does you think that was funny? At all?

No, I didn't think so.

And then Dad found out that Me and Cheddar peed in his suitcase so's he would remember us next time he went away.

And he was very unhappy with us, and didn't even make unfunny jokes for a while!

Which is why we were extra happy to get our yellow swappy gifts today from Mis Allie Cat! We wrote a little about it over on Swap N' Tails, but we gotses lots of stuff! And Mom had already forgiven us, so she let us play wif it all. AND she gots some neat stuff, too!

Thanks, Miz Allie Cat!

A Day for Remembering Heroes

Today is Memorial Day, and that means honoring our heroes, so here is my pic of me being a hero.

That was all done in fun, and Mommy liked givin' me a cape, but please remember that today is REALLY all about the real heroes who fight wars and stuff for us, and sometimes go on to the Rainbow Bridge because of it.

Today at 3:00, there will be a special moment of silence. If you don't know when that is 'cause you aren't so good at telling time yet, that's okay. Just try to do something special today for all the heroes you've known in your life, human and feline.

Scavenger Hunt: Hugs

Even though we fight a lot, when it comes to naptime, nobody makes a better pillow than my bruvver! We always meow to find each other when it's time to sleep, and most of the time we sleep with our paws around each other. I know we're lucky, especially since some very nice and very good kittehs have gone to the Rainbow Bridge and can't be with their bruvvers and sisters any more. So today, I gave my bruvver an extra-special big hug!

It's Indiana Cheese!

We are late, but we mades a pic, so we are postin' it anyway for the Indiana Jones look-alike-contest!

Saying Good-Bye to a Dear Friend and Beloved Pet

A friend of Mom's recently lost her beloved kitty and had to explain the situation to her five-year-old. Mom was very moved by her post because in addition to losing her first kitten to FIP before we came along, she grew up with cats and remembers how awful it was when the family's loving kitty died when Mom was just a girl.

Here's the link to Mom's friend's post on losing their family pet to illness:

Good-bye, Claudia.

He doesn't LOOK like a kitty cat?!

Wordless Wednesday

We're Useful Kittehs..aren't we?

We were tagged by Miz Allie Cat for the "7 Useful Things" meme! This should be easy, of course we are very useful kitties. Um....okay, just give us time to think!

We keep the young bean company when his big bruvver is on the computer by playing wif his toy army men and tryin' to eat them like giant tigers.

We groom each other all the time, and only end up biting each other on the neck sometimes. This shows admirable restraint on our part.

We cheers the Dad bean up when he has a hard day at work by fallin' asleep in his lap and purrin' at him. (Or attacking his socky feet. Depends on what mood we're in after our hard day.)

We try to drink from the toilet AND the water bowl, so Mom saves water (good for the environment until someone closes the toilet lid!).

We attacks any bugs or lizards we see so the house is safe from intruders (see the picture? That's Cheddar in his 'watchful' pose!).

We let Mom know when our food bowl is empty by meowing loudly and trying to get our food down all by ourselves (haven't been quite so successful at that last part yet!).

We help Mom write posts on the laptop by coming over to stand on the keyboard and snoopervise.

We will tag: Cyberspn (we loved the funny Sumo commercial on his site!), Momo, Pawlux
and Lara K.

We're excited!

Hooray!

We get to swap with Samantha and Tigger Swap n' Tails this month! Now we needs to get Mom to go shopping for something specially yellow. We would shop, but it would mean going in the big machine. *shudder*

So we will give her some ideas, and she can buy them.

We're also excited because we have some new treats to review. Mom got them and soon we will get to try them and review them on the site! She'll be putting up our reviews later this week.

We love treats almost as much as our newest toy, the catnip mouse,
which we have already torn into shreds. It had a little feather mouse tail,
but now we just has the feather left to play with! That was lots of fun to attack.

Cheddar still doesn't think anything can match the green and purple ball, though. It is his very favoritest toy! It really wears him out.

Oh noes! We is found out!

Mom found out about our secret stash, and now we is in trouble!

We are very smart, very sneaky cats. Of course you knows this. But Mom apparently didn't know just how smart we was!

See, we opened the cabinet door where the treats is kept, and we snuck out a whole bag of treats! And then we carried it back to our home.

(See, here's me, Colby, pointing to our two-story duplex kitty house.)

And then, we ate a hole in the treats bag! We nibbled and nibbled on the bottom until we could gets the treats out that way. We had a great thing going, until Mom caught on.

Our house is in where the laundry stuff is, and Mom was bending over, picking up some dirty laundry that had fallen on the floor, to wash it (which she hardly ever does, hee hee, just kidding, Mom! Uh oh...Mom is not in laughing mood).
Um..anyway, Mom looks in our house, and sees the incriminating half-nibbled bag of treats!

Mom says we are "Little Sneaks!" but she still loves us.

And now's the treats are gone from our house, and locked up in an Evil Ziplock Bag! Oh, the horror!

Finally, Kittehs Get Some Respect

Hello Kitty Named Japan Tourism Ambassador!

Who can resist Hello Kitty?! We likes Hello Kitty because she makes the rest of us cats look good. She's all sweet and loveable and friendly.

Now Japan has made Hello Kitty an offishul Tourism Ambassador (whatever that is). All we know is, it sounds like a Big Important Title, and it went to a kitteh!

Hello Kitty getting more famous every day can only be good news for us cats. You don't see any Hello Puppies out there, do you? So this fits in grate with our plan for ultimate kitteh world domination. We made this pretty picture of Hello Kitty to celebrate!

Photo Hunt #110 for the Cat Blogosphere (our first!): Candy

Colby founds a Gobstopper! The littlest bean likes to nom nom nom on these, but they're more fun to chase around the house 'cause they roll when you bats at them with your paw!

Like our friend, Daisy, who drew a cool picture of a lizard in her tummy!

5. Kittehs make good doodles.

Daisy's pic reminded us of what good doodlers some kittehs are! Lots of kittehs doodled for charity on Monday (we found out about it too late). Mo from It's a Blog Eat Blog World challenged kittehs to doodle pics of themselves on Monday, and then donated 50 cents for every kitteh that doodled! Now, Mo has an auction going on to raise more funds! Can you help raise money for kittehs?

6. Kittehs make Purrrfect predators!

Hey, we didn't say it, National Geographic did!

Now can we haz more chicken, Mom?

Wut IS Dis Stuff???

The youngest human boy just got something new. It's some kind of game, and now he is always playing with it.

Whatcha doin' ?
>Pay attention to me!




It's really annoying, because of course it takes away from Kitten Time, when he should be paying attention to US.

So, today, we tried it out. The graphics are cool, but honestly? We couldn't quite get the hang of it.

Okay, I got this thing working. How are you doing with the controller?

I've almost got it!

Cheddar to the Rescue!

Today, I saved Colby's life! We'll maybe not, but he sure was panicking! He snuck in Mom's room to get on the bed again (he's good at sneaking), but Mom didn't know he was in there and when she came out, she closed the door!

And then...she left! She and Alex (that's the youngest boy human) went to the doctor's office because he hurt his paw hand. And they were gone for over an hour.

So Colby was meowing, and I went over to the door to help, and I tried to get it open by bumping against it and pushing on it, but I couldn't! Still, I stayed right there, meowing right back at Colby to let him know I was there.

Then, Mom came back, and she wondered why I was meowing. She picked me up, and Alex opened the door and let Colby out! Colby was so excited, he started running all over the house!

I think Mom felt bad, because we had CHICKEN for a snack! MMM. Nom Nom Nom. I love chicken!

Hmmm. Maybe I can get Colby to lock himself in again...

harrowing
ordeal

Produck Reevyew: Crinkle Cat Cave

Mrroww! This is the bestest place to play. The floor crinkles like there's mice underneath it AND there's this cool tunnel to peek thru (in case your bruvver wants to pounce on you!).

There's a bunch of other openings, one on each side, so you can run in and out of the cave. I like to tip mine over and stick my head out of the top hole, like a groundhog.


Cheddar gives this product: ˆˆˆˆˆˆˆˆˆˆ(10/10) kitties!

Mom adds: At just $8.99 from Amazon.com, this Crinkle Cat Cave - Red is a real bargain! Both cats love it, and it easily folds up for storage (or when the cats flip it over!). Great buy.

A Day in the Life

Today, our human (everyone seems to call her "Mom", so I think that's what we'll call her, too!) let us play all around the Great Big Soft Space, which she calls a "bed". Cheddar and I chased each other, wrestled, balanced on the edge, jumped on the pillows and then fell asleep on the covers. There's so much room here! We can explore all over.

We had lots of good food today, including some little pieces of chicken. I never had chicken that wasn't out of a can before, and boy is it good! I actually begged for it. Cheddar had one piece, but I snuck an extra one when he wasn't looking and had TWO pieces! That's what he gets for sleeping all the time. I would rather be alert and watchful when I can. You never know when you might get an extra treat!

The youngest boy human threw the cool rattly mouse all over the place this evening. I just go crazy when he does that! He held the mouse over my head and swung it around. Cheddar likes to lie on his back and bat at it like an otter, but I'm like a bear! I get up on two legs and swipe at it. A few times, I even got the boy's hand. I'm really getting fast *preening*.

Then Cheddar and I raced each other to the mouse. Cheddar got to it first sometimes, but so did I, so we didn't fight over our toy.

Much.

Us!

That's me, Colby, the hot guy with the white paws in the pic on the left.

I'm the active, sociable half of the dynamic duo that is The Cheezits!

And I'm Cheddar, the cute, fluffy guy on the right. My fur is lighter, and I have a white chin. Don't you just want to pet my tummy?

No?

Oh.

Gosh, this is embarrassing...
