Well, today is the anniversary of mama and papa meeting for the first time.  Papa and mama say it’s the biggest event after having been born so that they COULD meet. Duh. March 31st, which just happened to be Easter Sunday gives them THREE anniversaries: Easter, March 31st and Valentine’s Day. Some anthros are just never satisfied. And why do...

Okay, listen up out there.  I’m hanging on for dear life after struggling with attempts to get the Cat Solarium info on ANY of my posts and I finally figured out what to do.  I changed the name of the post from Apartment Living to Apartment Dwelling and voila!  Posted correctly and so finally you have the code and email of those nice people who...

The String Game, Revisited (Notice, I made the print the same color as my ribbon, or…don’t notice) WHAT’S THIS? Well, when mama starts me off with a nice purple satin ribbon, with which I am having a VERY good time, and then switches it to raffia, I’m not at all happy.  Raffia, indeed, when I’ve graduated to satin!  Purple, at...

No, I am NOT licking my tail. (JUST REPUBLISHING THIS SO THAT THE INFO FOR THE CAT SOLARIUM WILL GET TO YOU!  There has been some glitch in using my WordPress on an IPad and a PC and the blogs come out differently…still working on this) I am THINKING about The Cat Solarium and really loving the idea!  So many kitties have no outdoor space–small...

Are THEY trying to tell me something? Are they out of their minds? Well, I tell you, mama and papa have a weird sense of humor.  My uncle Dan is always sending funnies to me and mama urges me to publish them and I guess I really couldn’t pass this one up.  Nor about a gazillion others you have seen.  But he’s a gentle-man.  Here is his pet...

WOW!  That amazing Annie Dillard says you can actually SWIM with this guy below in the Galapagos Islands! Mama is re-reading Annie Dillard’s beautiful book, Teaching a Stone to Talk and I said I would mention it today because mama thinks (as did those who awarded her the Pulitzer Prize in literature one year!) that she is one of the planet’s...

Ciao, baby. This guy needs a bath, in my opinion. Looks sort of spacey, if you ask me. Jeez, get a haircut! Er…have you been into the chocolate again, you bad doggy? NO COMMENT ON THESE PICS! Well, okay, okay, I’ll be fair.  I actually fell back into my old lovable ways after only about, oh, 8 hours and took back MY bed as  ransom for THEIR...

Uh, oh, I think I REALLY hear THEIR car now.  I’m disappearing… ***** Well, meanwhile, I have to say today a couple of final words for now about The Cat Solarium and then I am going to let those two brilliant inventors try to get it distributed wherever they can and perhaps even make some sales here in Europe. Melissa, one of the two...

FED EX DID NOT SHOW UP??? What’s the world coming to? You’re not going to believe this.  Mama and papa were off trying to do some very serious admin for getting a long-term visa to stay in France and all was well and they called Fed Ex to pick up something very time-sensitive and guess who did not pick up (begins with F) and so they are frantic...

Well, my vacation is cut short. Darn. Oh, boy, I think they finally got the picture.  A little birdie told me this morning (one of those weird turtledoves that mama insists on feeding 7-grain crackers!) that they may have to cut the trip short to do some admin at home, whatever admin is. I think it means paperwork and details and numbers and since...

Do I look forgotten or what? Well, as usual, mama has plunged into her cooking, which, for her, is the most fun about traveling, plus THEY are going off to a fair where antiques are sold.  WITHOUT ME. I know, I know, she should see a shrink (or maybe the medium that advertised in that little town and says she can bring back a loved one) just to make sure...

You say THEY are calling on the phone to say hello?  Hey, just for the record, Kitty Whisperer, I’m not at home… Well, I think mama and papa and their sis in law and her partner are falling in love with a little town that, so THEY say, is pretty cute, what with all the old Roman things around and a Picasso museum with some lovely and touching...

Well, while I lie here meditating on the meaning of travel and whether any decent kitty really needs it or not, mama and papa are sending me these ridiculous shots of wherever it is they are as in —  see below!!! Now I ask you, is a Segway the way to travel ANYWHERE, or what?  Still, these two seemed to be having the time of their lives in their...

Well, now they are in a little town that’s NOT Can or Can’t or Won’t or wherever that place is and mama says it’s really cute but finding good food is not easy except to cook so she toodled out with he sis in law and papa and Dan, sis’s partner and went bonkers in the open market (as usual) and made pasta with Roman broccoli...

              Well, mama wrote me that the sun is out where they are somewhere called Can, I think, whatever that is, and it’s 75 degrees and everyone is in tee shirts (do I care?) and that there has not been very good food (about that, I care!) but that soon they will hook up with my aunt-in-law and I’m sure...

            Well, here I am passed out after thinking THEY were taking me somewhere and I hid in the pantry and they went all over the place looking for me saying, “NO, Loulou, you are not going with us, don’t worry, your good friend is coming to stay with you” and they ran all around trying to leave but I...

I am helping to pack. See how neatly I tuck in everything.  It’s an art only kitties are good at… Well, mama and papa are off to Marsay or something like that to visit mama’s ex-sister-in-law and Dan, her companion, but she’s really like a real sister because they’ve known each other a very long time even if she was married to...

Beware the pawprints of pussycats! I think these paw prints are a sign, don’t you?  The fact that they are on the back of a white couch is not important…I wanted to leave a hint for Caesar so he’d take a vacation in mid-March, and since I only write with prints, I though he’d get it.  But no way, Jose… Hey, and now it’s...

Well, you see, I happen to sleep in a weird way almost every night watching TV with mama and papa and so I thought I should let you in on some of my poses that mama says are just not really normal kitty positions.  But I’m not sure of that.  I’ve seen some pretty wild sleeping contortions on other kitties’ blogs.  Still, I have to admit...

I like to WATCH anthros exercise. Well, they went off walking without me this morning to do something called exercise but that is beyond my reasoning or interest.  I go up and down a rock. Basta! C’est suffit. But they did take some nice little photos of our sweet ville at morning, even a couple of snaps of cormorants in love…er…you know...
