April Fool!

Wow! It's already the first of April. Don't know where the time went, but it flew by. Since it's the first of April, you know what that means. Wonder if any of our friends had April Fool tricks played on them?

Breakfast is waiting for you in the kitchen, Simon.

 

If you let me dress you up, you can play with the hamsters.

 

You can sit in the extra chair for as long as you want. 

Be careful of the new lamp!

Rover, the cat told me she wants to play with you.

 Hey, Mason! Guess who is with me.

It's a beautiful day outside. Go and play. 

This family needs a dog!

 

Humans are in charge, not cats.

Do you play any April Fool jokes on your friends? If so, we'd love to hear about them.

Spring Has Sprung!

I'm sure that we have a few more snowstorms coming in this part of the country, but it's spring according to the calendar.Let's see how our furry friends like spring.

Since we lost an hour a few weeks back, it takes a while to get moving.

On top of that, cats may have trouble getting their humans up!

 

However, once our friends are up, there are things to do.

Once the necessities are out of the way, it's time to eat.

and relax.

Then it's time to play hide and seek.

Play with friends.

Catch a mouse.

Exercise

 Have a treat.

After all that, it's time to rest again.

Before evening, there might be time to pretend to be a Superhero

or to just simply watch people go by.

 Some cats "spring" forward better than others. Don't think this one is handling it too well!

Are you happy that spring is here?

Cat Version of March Madness

It's that time of year again when basketball fans are so excited to see who ends up in the Final Four and who goes on to win it all. Cats don't really care, but they do consider the following things as MADNESS!

Being obedient

Lack of attention

Things hoomans do

Not catching birds

Having a dog around

Not enough time to relax 

Finding hidden toys

Having to explain themselves

Getting lost

Being dressed up

So I guess we all have our version of madness. Mine is going through withdrawal when football season is over. What's yours?

Feline Hall of Fame

As a kitten, Oscar was very playful. As a matter of fact, he would play so hard that he would drop on the floor and go to sleep where he landed! The family hoped he would slow down as he grew up. No, Oscar kept on playing hard. One day while he was playing out in the yard, he jumped so high that he landed in the birdbath! He didn't like the water, but he loved the feeling of jumping.

That made him wonder what he could find by jumping in the house. The family was always putting things up high where he couldn't reach them. Well, he was going to fix that! First, it was the kitchen counters, then the bathroom sink, tables, dressers, etc. He was driving everyone nuts! They tried two-sided tape and special pads you could buy to keep cats off the counters. None of that worked. They finally tried spraying him with a squirt bottle.

That didn't work either. In fact, he became so well known about his ability to resist the squirt bottle that he was voted into the Feline Hall of Fame.

Where's Mergatroid?

Winter was almost over. The sun was getting warmer and Mergatroid liked to lie on the window sill to soak up the heat. It felt so good on his body! Not only that, he could watch everything going on outside. The snow was melting; people were out walking. Some of them even had dogs with them. Mergatroid was glad that he was inside because he didn't really care for dogs.

One day the family decided it was time to do some cleaning. Not just regular cleaning, but washing and shampooing everything. The kids were in charge of their rooms while Mom and Dad worked on the living room. It took all day, but they washed the walls and the ceiling, dusted the furniture and were ready to shampoo the carpet when they realized that nobody had seen Mergatroid for a long time. They looked all over the house and in every room, but he was not to be found. Where was he?

When they finally found him, they had learned a very valuable lesson!
