this is the way things is

we cats are always harping on the importance of sleep, but few humans ever really listen to us. you should listen because things go better when you're well rested.

days gone by

sigh... i have to wait around for computer time now that my humans are away from the house a lot more.

these days are gone forever, since i have gotten bigger. i now weigh 4 pounds.

i still jump on Chedwick and Dennis but they are less and less interested in wrestling with me. 

they see me coming and run and hide. can you see the desperation in Chedwick's eyes? too many wrestling matches is why he looks like that. still i can't stop myself.

i did not do well at the vet

oh i look calm in this picture but this is after i shrieked and howled and hissed and growled and struggled and bit and clawed and threw up (twice) and foamed at the mouth, and then pooed. i hope i do better next time, but i don't have a lot of confidence that i will. The doctor and nurse just laughed because believe it or not, they have seen cats who act much worse!

freeze frame

since i couldn't upload a video today (i tried four times, i need a nap) i am posting this frame of the video. i'll try to post it over the weekend. 

do you have a desk eddy?

a desk eddy: 

someone who clears off your desk by throwing everything on the floor and then goes inside a desk cubby for a nap.

been really reaally busy

sorry for not posting every day, but i have a brutal napping and running and jumping schedule.

i don't nap so much as pass out. and i've added an extra project of organizing all the old lost toys i am finding around the house. i put them all in my basket. after i'm done i want to get out and visit some blogs.

i have lots of toys

i have so many toys. i just found them stuck in heating vents and behind bookshelves. i wonder why they were hidden! i found this springy thing, a butterfly with a hole in it,  and a dusty old mousie with an orange tail.

see my first youtube video here

i try to get small

i still think i can fit into places i fit into last month, but sometimes i get stuck. 

let a smile... etc...

been rainin' ever since i was born... 

compare, mon frere!

Tut Tut mentioned that it looked like i was growing. since Tut Tut has seen me live and in person, i have to say, she is right! we used the highly scientific colander measurement data test to see how much i have grown. today i occupy 43.7% more of the space inside the colander than i did when Tut Tut was visiting. (it appears to be more only because the second photo is more of a close-up and is taken from a different angle.) 

camera does not lie?

are my arms made of taffy-like something?

Wine Cork Hockey

Developed by Dennis in the year 2000 after a visit to Napa Valley, wine cork hockey is played in any bathtub rink and points are scored when the wine cork hits the drain plate when hit from the backrest of the rink. Eddy was introduced to the sport yesterday, and is already a keen player.

Jumping for String: a 35 second film

my friend went away

i had a visitor and she let me snuggle with her a lot! now she's gone, and all i have is this postcard she left for me. i will treasure it.
