  Bathing with BatCat is not easy! Today we are thankful for mama’s cousin who sent this to brighten our morning, and we hope it does the same for you!   Thank you, dear visitors, for being there all the time and helping so much with suggestions for my health, which, crossed fingers, is improving! Mama saw me jump in the air this morning...

No words, just music. Mama loved this singer introduced to mama by my auntie Jacquie who lives on Salt Spring Island and  knows SO much about music and musicians! I thought I might accompany her on...

Tuesday Tickles

Tickled toes. Every now and then I feel it is proper and polite to give homage to “man’s best friend”…does that mean kitties are “women’s best friend”, haha. Hey, that’s okay with me but I’m papa’s best kitty, too. Well, here’s a doggy of a story to honor doggies everywhere. Pretty amazing,...

Sun/Mon Musings

Posted by on Jul 24, 2023 | 20 comments

My spark for today (and other days often) is this: A good laugh and a long sleep are the best cures in the doctor’s book. Well, mama was feeling funny in the tummy from a weird tomato (NOT ours) someone had given her, and I had absolutely NO help with my Sunday selfie. And if anyone needed a long sleep to recover, it was me mama. So here it is, my...

Well, today, for a change, I am taking it easy. I am letting Lunapic do all the work, haha. And, I may have been sitting but I tupped over…happens, sometimes. Fortunately I was tupped into a Flower Lunapic that really made up for it! Hope your Saturday is full of cool breezes or even a huge downpour like the one we had yesterday that had rivers...

Friday Finishers…

This afternoon we had HUGE rain shower that came and went in 30 minutes!  And then mama showered me with rose petals… 1. Mama__ taught me that __I could go potty on the anthro john, but I had to give that up as I grew older and couldn’t jump easily. It was fun while it lasted… 2. I wish I could remember __where I came from so I could tell...

I’m leaving this little problem to better problem solvers…zzz Puppy pads, that is. This is where I …er…whatever. It has worked well before but now I seem to…uh, miss the pads every now and then. Any ideas will be welcome… But mama says to say that we are VERY thankful for puppy pads, VERY thankful. And also so very...

Too Much Tuesday

(You’ve seen this flash hug before but it is exemplary of what I am talking about!) You know, things can get out of hand when hugging is part of one’s daily routine, so you have to be careful what you wish for, haha. Still…   TOTAL STRANGER…who is this? Da noive! Okay, okay, I’ll make an exception where mama is...

Well, I asked papa what he thought would be a good Monday spark and he said, “Hug a lot!” So that’s our spark today. And he picked me up and gave me a nice papa snuggle. You can’t try this on just anyone, but you never...

Sitting Up Selfie

Posted by on Jul 16, 2023 | 18 comments

Mama and papa sometimes get ‘enchanted’ after lunch outdoors on a warm, lovely day and I see them going ‘off’….wherever that is. It’s a sort of sweet, calm, all-encompasing feeling in the body and soul, don’t you think? And we kitties do it so well. Happy week-end, everyone.…

Hot Spot Saturday

Hot Spot Saturday

Posted by on Jul 15, 2023 | 14 comments

This is Splash from Lunapic, but I couldn’t get wet enough to feel COOL! IT IS SO HOT HERE! Mama felt that my Saturday art should be cool and calm to offset the temp here. Even the sea is warm so it’s possible that mama will put her toes in soon. When you grow up swimming in a bathtub (the Gulf of Mexico), mama says, your body has difficulty...

  MERCI! We are so thankful that there are so many trained responders to fire, flood, heat and other climate troubles that appear to be happening everywhere. Thanks to all of them for their unending work to keep so many safe and well. Mama and papa are thankful that my glucose appears to be perfect on a pee pee bandalet that tells one glucose dangers....

Well, mama and papa were out all day and had an early evening and mama completely abandoned me as I started my blog LATE, thanks to THEIR galavanting, but actually they were having a very nice lunch with Mya’s papa…There were pictures of Mya and Mya’s mama’s paintings hung everywhere, a lovely tribute to Mya’s talented mama, Anne. I was busy when they got...

Too hot to trot – maybe, in my case, that’s good!!! Here’s a sparkle for today: Sometimes, when things are falling apart, they may actually be falling into place. Hmmm…could it be that our little falling-apartness over the last few days propelled mama to find Dr Elsey’s cat litter in France? Merci to all who suggested it as...

Let’s start with semi-squinty, plus selfie… Haha, just had to put in all of my poses today in our VERY hot weather. I am not even happy in a sun puddle, which ought to be renamed “simmer” puddles at this temp! Mama just LOVES shadows! Sunday sunpuddle, which is heating up my tummy something awful and I am OUT of here! Have a cool...
