Welcome back!

Of all of the weird things to happen, having my cat tell me to go to bed is at the top of the list for now.

I wanted to read a new book, but found it impossible to read when said cat decided to rest in the middle of my lap, but on top of the book.

I guess it is nap time.

Do you have a pet? If you do, then you know that they have opinions and are not afraid to let you know that they have them.

The other day, as I was occupied on the ‘throne’, I was told the opinion of one of our cats. She came in, visited me, sniffed, left, stopped by the litter box, sniffed, shook her tail, looked at me and then left.

The feeling I got is that the litter pan smelled better than me !?! Considering some of the odors that have come from that box, I am surprised that I was being criticized.

It has come to that time of the year again.

I call it sunning time. Since the weather is not as hot as it had been for a while, the cats like to get on the window sill and sun them selves.

Since one of them is mostly white, she shows up rather nicely when she does this. Of course when we leave the front curtains open, she choses to do this while on the back of the couch.

She does make a rather ‘glowing’ couch ornament.

Have you ever heard of the old saying “if looks could kill”? There are many various meanings to that phrase. Helen of Troy had looks that men used as an excuse to kill hundreds, if not thousands “The face that launched a thousand ships”. There used to be an old saying about someone having the “evil eye” that made people afraid of being killed by a look.

Well people, cats have known about dirty looks for a long time. They are experts at the ‘dirty look’. One example was what happened a little while ago. One of our cats decided she needed the litter pan. I happened to see since I was on the ‘throne’ and stuck in one place for a while. As she positioned herself, my husband passed by and passed gas. The timing was superb in that respect. Her ears went flat, her eyes went half closed, and when she got out, she gave him a DIRTY LOOK. I wonder if she was thinking that she would be blamed for what he did? (snicker)

He did not even need any weight loss programs either.

Of course, he spent all the time in misery, so his recent weight loss program was not very nice. He has learned to eat less, and avoid bending over to pick up anything from the floor.

Of course that means that I get to put out the wet food for our cats (that stuff makes you wish your nose was stuffed up), clean up any type of throw up that they have from hair balls, and clean out the litter pan. Of course I have been doing the litter pan for a while.

Do you realize that hair ball from cats can come in multiple colors? I know, strange question wasn’t it?

I have seen our cats in action so many times that I would dearly love to be able to put it in video and then post it on-line.

I don’t have a camcorder, though. I guess that I would need to check out some camcorder reviews to get an idea just what would work for me. I have a digital camera, but it only takes still pictures. If I had enough skill on the computer, I could take a lot of pictures and then turn them all into a video. The only trouble with that is that the cats do not stand still when they are playing, climbing, and bouncing up into the air. A still camera just could not do their play any justice.

Right now our tap water STINKS !

It makes me want to use a garden pond filter, or something stronger to get the water tasting better. My husband needs to use bottled, or filtered water in order to drink plain water.

I tested our tap water one day and found that it is VERY hard water with a lot of minerals in it. Now, add the stink, and people can tell why I like to drink a lot of bottled diet sodas instead of water.

If you go to Belton, Texas, bring your own water right now. Usually it does not have an odor, but oh my aching nose. I can understand why our cats do not want to drink water at this time.

Our cats are brats sometimes.

One of them has decided that she want to be in one particular place. It does not matter if there is something there when she moves in, she just knock the item off of the table.

I realize that she should not do that. But she looks at me with a very innocent expression. Almost as if she is saying - did I do that?

Have you ever noticed how cats can have the most amazing facial expressions? If you have ever been glared at by a cat, you know what I mean.

Yes, the dreaded word, fleas.

We live in an apartment complex. Every 3 months or so the complex has an exterminator (not Arnold) come by and spray. Well he came by, sprayed, and now we have fleas.

We have lived here for 8 years and this is the first time that we have fleas. I wonder where they came from. One of our neighbors also has had the same thing happen. Maybe they came in from outside.

Flea spray, here we come. I hope that our cats do not hold long grudges. MEOW !

I believe that I have mentioned before that we have cats.

Well, one has a ‘cattitude’. In other words, she is a cat with attitude.

She has this thing about being ignored. She does not like it. When my husband is getting dressed in our bedroom, she will do various things to get his attention. Well, yesterday she decided that she did not like me ignoring her and she bit me. Right on the rump.

When I hollered about her doing this, my husband broke down laughing and told me that she does it to him all of the time. Amazing how such a little critter can have so many little things that she does. She does make us smile.
