Gee, My Furs Smell

...terrific! My scent....it is divine!

Time to lie down and take my baff
and leave some more
of that enticing fragrance!

I know it looks bad

But moi? I never touched this kitteh! Uh-uh! Not me!
Je suis innocent!

Curled & Uncurled

Looky! I can scrunch myself all up or I can stretch myself all out. I am taller & skinnier than you'd think. Too bad the Human can't say the same, heh heh.

What is this tomfoolery?

Yes, I know it's manly blue because I'm a boy.
Yes, I know it's plush and silky soft.
Yes, I know you paid $10.99 for it at PetSmart.
Still:

Do.Not.Want.

Welcome Wally

On Wednesday, the Human went to the EssPeeCeeAy with her friend while he adopted a friend for little Aggie.

This is Wally. He is cute enough, though the Human didn't manage to take a non-blurry photo (in her defense, kittens move fast).

The EssPeeCeeAy said that Wally was a "cherryblossom" which apparently is their code word for a shy kitten, although he didn't seem shy at all to the Human or her friend.

And c'mon--cherryblossom? Really? For a little Mancat? How humiliating! They should call them "dragonfly" or something at least!

Thankful Thursday

Thanks to Sherkhan for this nice awardie. I am still new enough to blogging that I am not 'zackly sure what to do with it, but I think I pass it along to say thank you to six other kitties. So here goes...

• Max of course because he was the first blogger kitteh I ever found and he's been cracking me up for years!
• William because he is my idol and Caroline my true love.
• Katnip Lounge because Scouty and The Baby are such special friends and their mom always makes my Human laugh & laugh.
• Millie because she really IS so darling!
• Ayla & Iza because I love to read 'bout all their adventures (and because I got soooo wasted at Ayla's birthday party, doods).
• And finally, Calle, Halle & Sukki because they are all my best girlfriends.

Finally, the Human disappeared for like the whole day yesterday, when she should have been home taking care of ME, but when she finally did come home she smelled really interesting. I sniffed and sniffed, and she told me they had gone to a place called the EssPeeCeeAy and that now little Aggie has a new little brother named Wally. More about him next time.

I don't know why she's so ridiculously excited. Aggie and Wally don't even live here (as IF!), for heaven's sake.

Whatever.

The Balcony Scene

Ah, this is where the beautiful Juliet (my darling Latte) used to hang out and we'd bat our eyes and sing to each other. Alas, Juliet has crossed the Bridge, but I still find the Deck and the Humans who live over there quite interesting.

Also, as you can see at left, there's a window right into the kitchen of the neighbor-lady. My Human does not know her very well, but to tell you the truth I find her absolutely fascinating. In fact, I kind of stalk her. She doesn't seem to mind, or at least she has not complained.

Well, anyway, I really like to watch her in her kitchen. She does all kinds of interesting things. Also, there are two people who live upstairs from her (Latte's mommies) and I like to watch them too, although I can't see into their windows quite so well. They have a new kitty now named Onyx, and she's real cute, but she's not allowed outside like Latte was so she can't really be my new Juliet.

And that's what's outside my kitchen window.

Disappearing Act

Poof!

I am *SO* a Manly Mancat

It's really not my fault that the Human dangles
this irresistible crunchy-braided toy
right in front of my face.
I have to play with it. H-a-v-e t-o.
There's no shame in this.
Right?

Well, well

So little Aggie is learning why she has those tiny needle-sharp teeth and claws. So's her Human, ha ha ha ha ha!

Oh me? Just hanging around....

....plotting.

Nectar of the Gods

Ambrosia. Manna from Heaven.

I must have been
a very, very, very
Good Kitty indeed.

Because I got some of this tonight!
And, who knows, if I keep being
a good boy?
Well, there's more in the jar.

Saturday Snoopervising

Gotta keep a close eye on all those Humans out there.
I mean, who knows what kind of mischief
they might get into on a sunny day like this?

Yes, here I am

On the windowsill, between the curtain and the window.
Now, did you want something or were you just hunting me down?

Yeah, I thought so.

My hammock!

Oh! Oh! Oh!
About a year ago, the Human disassembled my kitteh hammock, washed the soft fabric part and then put the whole thing away in the back porch. She forgot all about it.




Well, I asked her all the time where it was, but she never seemed to understand what I wanted. Yesterday she came across it and she said, "Oh, Spitty! It's your little hammock! Would you like me to put it together for you?"

Well, duh, Yeah I would!

Tired Tuesday

I'm embarrassed about the fluffy brown fur on my back legs. Black cats should be, well, black. I wonder if the Human could dye it for me? Maybe I'll....um...I'll....zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

'Scuse me?

What did I say that gave you the impression
you had permission to stop brushing me?

Department of Too Little, Too Late

My fun new stripey ball

does not really make up for the presence
of this in my life today.

Oh look.

It's her.
Again.

The Longue-Lounge Thing

This is the New Thing. I guess it's all right. It's kind of a chaise-longue (the Human tells me that this is how it is really spelled although I have always just spelled it "lounge" and no one ever complained) made out of good scratching stuff.

It's kind of too small for me to do any lounging (or, excuse me, longue-ing). Would it have been so hard for her, I ask you, to have purchased me one in my size?

I love the smell of battle in the morning

Tastes like
Victory
to me!

Harry Spotter gave me this award and I'm very grateful. The Human loves Harry's name! Let's see: Nine interesting facts about myself. This shouldn't be hard at all! Everything about me is interesting!

1. My real name is Spitfire but nobody ever calls me that.
2. When I first came to my Human's house, I hid under the bed for two weeks. When she finally caught me, her friend said she looked like she was wearing blood gloves. Heh heh.
3. The Human cannot wrestle me into a cat carrier. I am very proud of that.
4. I lovelovelove to be brushed.
5. I fell in love with the kitty who hung out on the deck next door and sang to me through the kitchen window. She was my Juliet. She was very much an Older Woman though, and the Human told me she walked over a bridge one day. There's a nice new kitty there now, but she's not my Juliet.
6. I disdain all people food, except baby food meats which I get only rarely, dammit.
7. I have never slept on the Human's bed with her in it.
8. Even though I am a mancat, I have never done anything outside my box, thank you very much!
9. I do sort of miss the Human when she's at work. Sort of.
