HEY, mama, what is this March 4th thing anyway? Well, heh, heh, March 4th, eh? BIG day today, folks. Mama decided to bake breakfast cookies, papa is doing computer work for us all, including getting my passport back from the vet where MAMA left it when I was manipulated by Madame Docteur Vet. For all I know...

WOW. Signore Pavarotti made my eyes water! Well, inspired one more day by great tenors, mama talked me into sharing Pavarotti with you, in his performance of Daughter of the Regiment, in which he did something very few tenors have done or can do. Our day, started off with opera, was so different from the days we...
Read MoreCasing the Joint
No strings attached for me… Well, mama has started me on chondroitin powder (Cosequin) in my food, and I actually eat it, but nothing seems to be happening yet with my little front joints. I still shake my front paws when lying down or during a bit of string play, so it’s not that fun to chase...

What are those beautiful voices I hear? Well, as you may remember, mama and papa have family in Rome, and they have not seen any of them for ONE YEAR today! They talk to one another on WhatsApp and keep in touch weekly, but around here there is much nostalgia for our Rome visits. So I thought I would make mama and...
Read MorePuppy Love
I have resigned myself to holding my own paws because I’m going to have to love myself all by myself if these outbursts of ecstasy over tiny creatures continues in this household! So here’s the story: mama and papa went to visit two friends (at a distance) and take them some...

There were WHAT in his backyard? Oh, boy, a friend of ours who helped mama in the garden some years ago installed a camera in his yard to see who was tearing up the soil, and this is what he saw! Because of lack of food due to so many changes around here with Covid and climate and more, the wild boar (sangliers in...

Mama, those are just green sticks with leaves! Why did donks love those? Well, mama goes bananas when she has spring artichokes, haha. They are in season now and we are eating frittatas and omelets and little thin-sliced baby artichokes sautéd in olive oil and I was watching the other day when mama even threw a...

I’m overseeing this project today. I’m making sure they do the kindest cuts of all… Well, l’arbousier est coupé! The strawberry tree has a really lovely haircut and I shall keep a record of how it develops. I’m pretty sure that he will branch out, haha, as spring approaches....

I have to take pics of these guys? It’s too COLD, mama! Well, tomorrow I have to get out my camera and take pics of the tree guys who are going to cut our strawberry tree way back so that it can branch out in the spring. Mama is hoping that just maybe it will back off on producing so...

Mama, do you think they can capture this pose in a clone? Well, here’s a cutie! And there may be much discussion about the cloning of endangered species, but I happen to think it is pretty amazing! Of course, I can’t stop it, that’s for sure, so I decided to just go with it and be tickled over...
Read MoreDoes This Ever…?
Well, does this ever happen to you bloggers out there? You start to write about something you think everyone will like, and then you say to yourself (yes, talking to yourself is sometimes questionable, but that’s where I am right now…) “Gee, I don’t think this is going...
Read MoreEnergy Saver
Just call me Tuckered… Well, I seem to be in a wintertime wastrel sort of state…not doing much, just lolling around trying to keep warm and half-heartedly attempting to attract a tummy rub from ANYONE, doesn’t matter whom. Just get over here and DO it, mecs! Was I bitten by one of those bad mosquitoes? One of those snoozing-sickness...

OH, these kids are amazing… Well, mama and papa had to get out their tear tissues this morning when Mya’s maman sent this amazing video of enterprising young people from Paraguay. I never want to put things in my blog that make you cry, but as we kitties know, tears just happen...

Oh, my goodness, that is an amazing work of art! Well, if you have not seen the magnificent Italian boat that is competing in The Americas Cup, take a little trip to whatever channel you have that’s running the race and marvel at something WE had never seen before. EVER. When mama first saw the...
Read MoreVoice Over
I’m trying to make my nip leaves talk…wish me luck. Hey, I don’t have a puppet to practice on! Well, once again, Mya sent Loulou this amazing video of a little girl’s talent. It’s like this: almost every morning mama receives something fun and wonderful from Mya’s...
Read MoreApt Apps?
Mama’s app screen to find out what I am saying. In your dreams, mama… And no, I don’t mean appartment! I mean apps that work and apps that …er…are totally puzzling and we can’t figure out why they exist at all! For example, mama has a listening app for when I make a...
Read MoreNot to Fret
Well, mama and papa were looking at a video that demonstrated the Blue Note in music, so interesting! It’s that sort of bend of the strings that guitarists do, whatever they are, and singers do it and violins do it. All very, very puzzling to a kitty, that’s for sure but lots of music uses blue notes. So I watched, thinking maybe I...
Read MoreStockholm Sindrome
Haha, yes, misspelled for a reason, okay? Mama is worried that somehow, being isolated for almost one whole year now, she is falling for her head-captivity-honcho, ie, isolation during COVID-19! Even if I know better, that mama really is a social creature and loves dancing on tables, I do see...
Read MoreEasy To Love
A love story for today, among others… Well, I just want to say that it’s Valentine’s Day and I am so glad to be here with my mama and papa on their anniversary (and maybe having a bite of whatever it is that smells so GOOD), and Happy, Happy...
Read MorePoochie Pouches
Hey, is this a normal pouch or what? Well, hah! Maybe I have NEVER been…er…a bit too round, as Ms Vet seemed to imply. Thanks to this article that Mary McNeil sent, I might actually be svelte and perfectly shaped as a Tuxie, except for my (little) hereditary pouch underneath!...
