Down The Tubes

March 3, 2010

All of the five cats at my house are neurotic. Wait a minute … if I say “cat” and “neurotic” in the same sentence, am I being redundant, and repeating myself, also, too, as well?
No matter.
The point is my cats are all crazy, but one in particular is driving me [...]

Only The Good #6

November 21, 2008

Can you see the bits of trash scattered all around that cat toy? Pretty yucky looking, isn’t it? Naaaah! Don’t think like that! That cardboard thingamabob is a cat scratching toy. It sits smack dab in the middle of my living room to entice my one cat with claws to [...]

The Prodigal Returns!

January 28, 2008

Oh, I’m getting so tired of drama!
I told y’all a couple of days ago that my cat had gone AWOL. I seriously believed she was dead, eaten by coyotes, and I have been weeping and carrying on like a lunatic. I haven’t been able to think or do my work. [...]

I’m Not As Macha As I Try To Pretend

January 24, 2008

When I was a teenager, we had a Great Dane. She was a regal looking fawn colored dog, but she didn’t know she was a dog. She was my constant companion, sleeping on my feet at night. She loved to accompany me as I walked through the woods each weekend. My [...]

My Cats Are Not This Entertaining

January 18, 2008

The only tricks my cats can do is barf on a shoe. They certainly wouldn’t climb into a goldfish bow on command.
You’ve probably already received this in a viral e-mail, because it’s going around. But, I needed the chance to giggle today. This is one of those days when I think [...]

Rock Hound

November 8, 2007

The following is an image of my best friend from childhood.

His name was Ming Toi Tu, and he was a bona fide, purebred toy Pekingese who was descended from a long line of award winning show dogs. He had his papers, but he wasn’t snooty about it. Ming didn’t look down his nose [...]

I Can’t Even Cat Nap

November 2, 2007

Is this not an adorable cat? Don’t you just love cats?
What?
Who said that?
I heard you! One of you said, “Yes, I love cats—let’s share recipes!”
I will not stand for that. So, I’m going to go sit down.
This is Walter Mitty. I’ve told you about him before when he suffered [...]

Cereal Killer

November 1, 2007

All right! Who went into the pantry and did this? I wanna know who knocked all the cereal to the floor!! Which of you cats is the culprit?

“Not me, Momma.”
“Well, I would never!”
“I didn’t do it.”
“That is sooo beneath my dignity.”
“Do I look like the kind of person who would do that?.”
Well, [...]

My Cat Toy Design—Don’t Delay, Call Today!

April 26, 2007

With five “fe-lions” I spend a lot of time on the “pet aisle” of my local grocery store. I’m always looking for toys to humor my pets, and I know you other cat lovers are, too. I found this cat toy at the Kroger grocery store yesterday, for approximately $11.00 With some [...]

I Might Have A Cure For The Cat’s Ear Mites

April 14, 2007

Walter Mitty has not been a happy camper.

That has made at least two of us. I believe I may have told y’all that I am the domestic servant for five “fe-lions.” Walter (aka “Wyatt” because he “erps” hairballs all the time) is the neurotic one. Let me amend that, he [...]
