Well you won’t believe it, but this is a first! Okay, maybe a second, but I can’t remember when mama and papa last had a HAMBURGER for dinner! They can’t either… Mama is a minimal red meat eater in her old ag…er…as she grows less young, and papa is sort of losing his taste for...
Read MoreDirt Cheap
HEY, mama, what do you THINK I’m doing? Well, I have a new hang-out place in the garden and mama is giving me that Loulou-where-on-earth-have-you-been look, and HAHA, it is ON EARTH, MAMA, HAHA! Mama’s wild asparagus bed is a perfect place to roll around and stretch and get myself COVERED in...
Read MoreMemories
Well, today mama is remembering several kitties in her past so I’m going along with that. Above is Fiat, found at a Fiat car company as a kitten but they didn’t want him. He spent his life terrorizing Puss, a kitty (of the downstairs neighbor) who was a terror herself. They were amicable...
Read MoreAnger Management
You think I look mad? You haven’t SEEN MAD!!! Well, when they go away, I get a little miffed, but instead of being crazy mad and going out to rip up the tomato plants or worse (I couldn’t do that because Mya love cherry tomatoes, so you get it…), I take it all out on my toys. ...
Read MoreReturn To Me🎼
Well, I never thought I would quote that old song, but I am feeling a bit lonesome for my mama and papa, especially papa right now since I hear from mama that he is barely able to walk a block or two without having to sit and rest. Let’s hope this doc next week can fix...
Read MoreHot Dog!
Well, today is FDO—for doggies only! Hey, am I open-minded or what?...
Read MoreGone But Not Forgotten
Sort of. I mean, I COULD forget them but somehow I just can’t bring myself to do it. Even abandoned. THEY are off for three days because papa has to make some plans with docs who will fix his back next week, and the docs are not in our ville but instead are in Montpellier....
Read MoreHunger Games
The things I put up with… Oh, boy, first it was the tourterelles and now I have to contend with – you’ll never guess – BABY BIRDS! CUTE BABY BIRDS. MORE THAN CUTE BABY BIRDS! So are these cute or what? FEED ME, FEED ME they are crying but I’m not about...
Read MoreTGIF
Haha, that stands for Thank God It’s Fish! Mama is making salmon and oh, boy, do I get a nice little chunk of that, sautéed in olive oil and a bit crispy skin on the outside, or what? So Friday is a pretty nice day around here, not to mention that those crazy tourterelles seem to be invading our patio...
Read MoreUp Close And Personal
Well, I’m going to cheat today because mama is somewhere else doing something obviously more important than HELPING ME and so I took her iPhone and snapped a couple of mug shots and even though it’s not Sunday, I’m on a Selfie roll! Hey,...
Read MoreCurrying Flavors
Are you kidding? I’m not touching my kitty food when I can have curry! Haha, just kidding. It smells really good but it’s not on my menu. So mama’s on a roll right now, making Southeast Asian and Indian curries, and cheating a bit by serving them both with Indian chapatis...
Read MoreDeep Thoughts
QUOI? MOI? To do is to be – Camus To be is to do – Sartre Shoobedoobeedoo – Sinatra Well, that’s what papa discovered on a public bathroom wall sometime in his past, and mama is pondering its profound meaning since she is tending, toward this end of summer, to do absolutely...
Read MoreSimmering Summer
I just have to get out in that darkness and make sure things are okay! Well, we are going to have a week with highs in the 80s and I, for one, am pretty happy about this because it means summer is not giving way to fall YET and that we will have lovely, sweet evenings outdoors where I can peruse the...
Read MoreChairperson
Well, not exactly “person”…maybe chair puss is more accurate, but today I am giving lessons in how to treat, educate and manage one’s chair. Hi, everyone, be sure to have a pad and pencil (remember them?) ready for your lesson. First, take control like this, spreading yourself all over the...
Read MoreGuest Towels
Okay, does this silly dove expect me to provide serviettes for his (her?) toilette??? The nerve of these birdbrains, just about to jump in MY dish and BATHE again! I thought I had warned them last time, but no, the info simply does not penetrate their tiny skulls! Towels, indeed!!! ...
Read MoreThe Funs of August
YOU MISSED PUPPETS? Are you NUTS? Oh, mama is such a stick-in-the-mud, or sand, as the case may be here… Last night on our beaches (there are three) there were Catalan boats coming in from out at sea and on the decks, there were double lifesize dancing puppets all in white and manipulated by anthros...
Read MoreRats! No Net!
(My aunty Lynne telling me how sorry she is about the rat!) Well Papa thinks that there are rats underneath our house that have eaten our Internet cord and so we can’t get out or in today and I’m hoping this will get to you through some other means, namely my kind neighbor and aunty up...
Read MoreWednesday Giggle
Well, I practically fell off the bed laughing at THIS photo that Mya’s mama sent. Mama said I had to publish it, even if it might be…er…sensitive to some. I think it will be okay… Mama says she wouldn’t mind...
Read MoreUnwanted Guest?
I’m going to find that kitty and when I DO…. Well, mama was out in our garden this afternoon and just about jumped out of her garden gear when she spotted a little grey and white kitty hiding under the tomato forest teepees that support the plants. WHO IS THIS KITTY? Well, I’ll tell you who: she...
Read MoreMore Mundane Monday
Well, haha, after having goofed royally by publishing Monday’s musings on SUNDAY, I’ll have to do penance for sure by cutting my nap short by at least 5 minutes. That’s punishment for any kitty! Maybe stick at 4… I sort of self-inflict these “punishments” because I don’t...
