Well, it’s just you and me, baby. FREE for one night. Oh, and Lynne, but she’s cool. We can cause some trouble!
Well, THEY are taking off again (only for one night, I really shouldn’t complain) but lucky for me they are leaving me with Lynne who is another one of mama’s and papa’s sweet friends who offered to kittysit for an evening. I think they are leaving her an Oscar nomination film to watch and lots of really good nums in the fridge to help have a great pyjama party with me! Whatever that is. I don’t think I own pyjamas!
Hey, Lynne, there is a half a chicken in there–hint, hint! Also a few chocolate truffles and some homemade pizza, but I can’t have any. Just let me have a sniff, okay? Okay, okay, I won’t push. I was told to behave. HAH!!!
How can you resist me? Maybe just a teensy piece of the mozzarella?
When you think about it, it’s pretty nice to be able to spend a little time with different kittysitters and widen one’s social network (and get treats!).
Speaking of which, I read the other day that the UK is appointing a Minister of Loneliness to address the problem of so many anthros feeling sadness about being alone so much and feeling that they have no connections with others and have nowhere to get help.
And why do you think so many are so isolated?
Cell phones, the social network, the I, Me, My generation and so many other factors make us more and more unable to communicate with others in a personal way.
We are fortunate, we kitties, to have so many kitty/doggy/rabbit/etc. friends through our blogs and chats. I am very sad, too, that so many elderly anthros are feeling that they have nowhere to turn for interaction with others, and I think if kitties could visit homes where the elderly reside, they would make a difference. Just snuggling or cuddling a kitty or doggy creates happy vibes throughout an anthro’s soul.
Plus, it feels so good to US!
We bet you’ll have lots of fun with Lynne.
Oh, had a ball. I just hope she comes again!
I think I was the lucky one to be able to spend an evening in Loulou’s company!! She’ really the perfect cat – so intelligent and elegant!!
We had a lovely pajama party despite Loulou’s pajama-less state. It didn’t bother either of us, so a good time was had by all!!
And the food – don’t get me started!! I had a delicious pizza made by Loulou’s mom and some yummy cookies, also made by mom. Unfortunately i won’t be here long enuf to enjoy all the goodies in the fridge – tragic!!
Thank you Loulou, for a lovely evening at your house!!
OH, Lovely Lynne, we did have a good time, no? So when are THEY leaving again for a night or so? Maybe I can find them a place they might like to go….if it has a hot tub, they’ll be outta here in a New York minute, whatever that is.
I think that is a wonderful idea Loulou. There is nothing better than kitty love.
Yes, we seem to be the masters of that.
Loulou, I KNOW you and Lynne had fun!!! She could dog-sit with me ANY time and we would have a blast. Meanwhile, Auntie Linda is here and spoiling ME rotten and taking lots of photos and sneaking me crumbs!! So, tell me – did you manage to open the fridge and eat the chicken?
NO, darn it. I needed YOUR help, Mya. Or Marcus, haha.
Your mama and papa do travel a lot. Good thing they don’t always make you go along since most kitties don’t like to travel. Travel usually means the v-e-t. Your mama and papa better have a great time if they don’t want you to enjoy yourself more than they do.
Well, travel in this case is one hour and fifteen minutes away to get to an American embassy to get something signed. Not a big trip but I am having a BALL with my sitter.
this was such a sweet post!! LouLou, I bet you and Lynne will have a meowvelous time and since your Mama is such a great cook, Lynne will be eating like a Queen! Yes we are lucky that so many of us are connected online, it is better than nothing but face-to-face interaction is still best!
Boy, do we believe that! Wish we knew EVERYONE who writes such nice comments and reads us.
In. like Flynn – now that brings back naughty memories – maybe that’s why you feel like getting into a spot of trouble, Eh?
But, a usual, your right – kitties are great cuddles and do a heap og good ..
Oh, grandma Ros, are you okay? Yes, mama is from WAYYYYY back, haha.
LouLou, lots of places ARE working on your idea – kitties and dogs are therapy animals who go to places and visit kids and older folks – but it’s usually in a hospital or assisted living home setting. And sometimes they show up at colleges during stressful times such as test weeks. After tragedies (like Newtown) they sometimes bring in a whole bunch of “comfort animals” just for people to cuddle and hug. But if you are alone in an apartment and don’t have your own pet, yes, you are really missing out.
Our friend, Tracy, took her doggies often to hospitals and the patients LOVED them and cuddled them and the doggies just lay back on the beds and let their tummies be rubbed. I would love that.
