2009 Meow Like A Pirate Day!

'Tis time t' Meow Like Pirates again! I be Pirate Willow th' Wicked an' I be ready to ride the seas,
lookin' for treasure.
~~~~~
Later, I be lookin' for Cap'n Mao Fang of the Cat O' Nine Tails. He took over for Cap'n Nels the Cranky who we lost last year, but still hold close in our hearts.Here is my official Pirate Name:

My pirate name is:

Calico Bess Rackham

Often indecisive, you can't even choose a favorite color. You're apt to follow wherever the wind blows you, just like Calico Jack Rackham, your namesake. You have the good fortune of having a good name, since Rackham (pronounced RACKem, not rack-ham) is one of the coolest sounding surnames for a pirate. Arr!

Saturday Caturday Fun for Me

I love to be way up high on top of my refrigerator. That's where my water pitcher is and sometimes I just like to sit up there. The garage door is to my right and when my Food Lady leaves the door open to bring Groceries and Treats into the kitchen, I can see all the way down to the street.
~~~~~
Today I was looking at a fly that came into my kitchen. You can see by my eyes that he is up by the ceiling and too far away for me to pounce on him or swat him down. Well, I couldn't reach that fly and it is pouring down rain so I don't want to go out in my screened-in porch. My Food Lady decided to make a fantasy picture for me.
~~~~~
See, it's me but now I am outside looking at leaves and a pretty heart-shaped balloon. Maybe it will stop raining soon and I really will go out and see leaves and balloons!

Almost My New Box

My Food Lady's laptop crashed to the floor and broke the monitor. My Big Janitor Dad tried to fix it but so far it just is NOT fixable. He told my Food Lady that the hard drive is OK so all of our pictures are still safe - whew, we were all relieved at that! So my Big Janitor brought home a new laptop for my Food Lady. She took out the laptop to look at it, and I jumped right into that box! See how I am showing her how much I like this box! I told her to look at me - I fit perfectly in this box!
Well, it wasn't to be...
My Food Lady found that the new laptop wasn't strong enough for her Photoshop program where she makes pretty pictures, so the computer had to go back into it's box and back to the store.
~~~~~
My Food Lady get another new stronger laptop but it didn't have a good box. It was just skinny and flat. It made me a little bit sad...
I wish that we could have kept this nice box.

My Tea Time Pictures

These were pictures from a tea party that I had with China Cat. Don't worry, I wasn't really drinking tea - my Food Lady put my crunchies in the tea cups!

It was such a fun tea kibble party

Since it is World Cat Day

I think that I should go out into the World. Never mind,

I don't want to go out.

I think that it may be scary out there

for an indoor cat.

I'm staying here - I love you, Mom!

Thanks for taking care of me!

Tummy Time

My Food Lady was reading the newspaper at one end of the couch so I walked over her and went down to the other end to take a nap. I am not a lap kitty with my Food Lady but I like to be with her. See how big I am - I can use the space on a whole cushion all by myself. I was happily snoozing down here when suddenly there was one of those blinding flashes that always wake up cats. My Food Lady told me that she couldn't resist taking a picture of me all stretched out and showing off my white floofy tummy. Wow, what a huge yawn!
Can I return to my nap now???

Toesday Today

Hey, it's Toesday today!
Time to enjoy seeing my perfectly aligned toes!
~~~~~
Here I am sitting on top of the refrigerator where I have my water pitcher. Sometimes if I am lucky someone will come in from the garage and leave the door open so that I can look out. My Food Lady thought I looked so cute she quickly got the flashy box, after telling me to stay where I was and not move. I could see somebody walking with their dog outside so I was happy to just sit inside and look out!
~~~~~
Anyway, my Food Lady loves the way I align my toes all in a row. This is how I almost always sit so I don't know why she still gets so excited about it...
