Olivia’s Fighting Skills

Olivia Wigglebothum has accepted Homer Tiresias. They’ve shared lap space, spoons of food, and have even been caught with their butts touching when I wake up in the morning. However even good cat buddies sometimes have to demand their own space. Despite the size difference, Olivia usually prevails with her sweet fighting skills. The Bear: Make yourself big as if you were encountering a bear in…

The Betrayal

Betrayal both ways, I left for DAYS. Abandoned. Not me she snuggles. #badcathaiku ABBF gets the warm greeting.

Little Adventures: Ghost Hunting Moonbows

We’re trained to expect a spectacle, but are then challenged to accept subtle ghosts. Traveling to see natural phenomena sets us up for the giant mountain, the huge sedge of Sandhill Cranes, the multicolored sunset. The biggest, the longest, the widest, the weirdest. So staring at a misty white light made us seek confirmation that our ghost hunt was successful.  ABBF and I traveled to Cumberland…

BLAP, BLAP, BLAP

BLAP, BLAP, BLAP, BLAP, BLAP, BLAP I enjoy comedian Drennon Davis and follow him on Instagram exclusively for his cat video (and occasional possum named Jeph) content. He has three orange cats Toad, Newt, and Frog and a cow cat named Doug. He does voiceovers for the cats. The voices of the orange cats are now how Homer sounds in my head. “BUSINESS KISSES!” Watch a few videos. It will make sense…

These Weirdos

Who do you spend the most time with? Well, they’re in my house 24/7. We eat pretty much every meal together, and at least 2-3 accompany me to bed nightly. I’m not sad about it. I do not see any humans for this amount of time unless we’re on a trip of some sort. So, yes, the cats especially Homer are who I’m with the most. Homer is determined to prove every meme and joke about orange cats…

GET. UP. SUMMER!

The GET. UP. Committee says that it’s the first day of summer and we can’t just lounge around like royalty. We have shit to do like feed the Committee and garden. Mind you they’re all snugged in because it’s like 60 degrees and rained all night. They do request that I fix my hair before proceeding.

Trying to make it work

Cat Momming is hard right now. Results from a routine vet visit sent Miles to emergency vet for four days. The numbers say kidney failure which cat people know is not good.  He is on a number of antibiotics and supplements that he hates, and food that he feels “meh” about. Getting him to eat more is a goal.  He still comes to tell me I should feed him. Since his routine makes our overall…

Not a Scruffy Looking Nerf Herder!

Sookie is not amused. The vet tech called her … “scruffy.” Sir. Sookie can’t help it if it’s spring and she’s blowing her coat, plus stress shedding because we were at the V-E-T and you kept squeezing her bits. She’s been plotting since we got home. If only someone would drive to someone’s house so she could pee in their shoes. She’s no scruffy looking nerf herder! May the Force be with you…

Little Adventures: A Rockin’ Friday Night

The Weasel stays for dinner. Everybody shares their rock collection over dessert, right? Our Good Friday was good indeed as MomBert came to town to go fossil hunting. With a simple stop at the nature center for a permit, Caesar’s Creek State Park will allow you to sit and sift through rocks all damned day. I found a toad!(Not fossilized) The small cliffs and open fields of the dam’s spillway…

So Much Laundry!

Stinky laundry pile So much sorting. Who works here! Contact management.

The List Went On…

What makes you nervous? Proctoring standardized testing. There are so many rules and so much timing of things. Plus it all revolves around technology now so I constantly feel like I am one button push from making everyone fail their state competency tests or the SAT. The edges of heights. Think the sweeping curves in mountains or those huge arching bridges near the ocean. This has become worse…

Toilet Emotional Support Cat

I’m just a person who wanted to pee before taking a shower. My Toilet Emotional Support Cat was determined to advocate for my needs. Turns out that before my shower, I also needed to email my US Senators to not support the SAVE act which will potentially make it even harder for a whole bunch of people to vote. They’re both Republicans so I doubt that they will give a shit about my womanly…

My Squad

They’re totally like an elite team of assassins, but they just got really sleepy. **Birdie not pictured because she was on a covert op.
