A Much Better Day

I have had a really good day today. It has been nice and warm with not too much wind, so it is perfect weather for little pussy cats to hunt and play.

My two humans have been home all day so I have always had some company when I decide to come home for a wee feed. I do like having my little tummy tickled and my MH does this and she also rubs my little ears which makes my wee engine purr very loudly. I think I am a lucky puss cat.

My DH has been putting tomato plants in his greenhouse and I have been helping him with this, especially when her indoors brought out the hoover. I still do not like this machine at all.

There is a HUGE bull in the field opposite my house, so I have been staying well away from him as he looks like he could swallow a wee puss like me in one gulp, and I really don't want to be swallowed up, so I will stay well away from that field until bully-boy has gone.

I have found a new hiding place in my house and it is under the couch in my living room. I can slide in there and have a wee sleep without being disturbed and today's picture is of me just coming out from under my couch.

Life is sweet!

All Alone

I was left alone today for a wee while as my humans had to go away in the wee boat but they left me plenty food and lots of water and since the weather was good, they left the window open and I was able to go out and play whenever I wanted.

So you can see that I was OK, but I was just a wee bit lonely 'cos I had nobody to play with and nobody to tickle my wee tummy, but as soon as they came home I got everything I wanted.

Because I don't have a lot of news today, I will give you chapter 4 of my story.

Chapter 4

Squeak and her friends didn't meet up for a couple of days as they were still thinking about their narrow escape a few days earlier and had decided to stay away from their meeting place in case the nasty dog came back again.

However, they decided that it was safe now and all three headed to their secret place and told one another what they had been doing.

Henry Hedgehog told them he had been racing round the garden gathering up food as he was hoping to meet a lady hedgehog soon and so he would need lots of nice things for her to eat. Sammy had been flying all over the island and he too had been looking for food. He had found a field of fruit bushes and had gone there every day for his dinner. He had also been playing flying games with his friends and according to him, he always won. Squeak told them that she had been practicing on her climbing frame and had been chasing her toys all over the house and she was going to be the fastest and bravest hunter in the whole world. Sammy and Henry just smiled when they heard this because they were older and much wiser than this baby pussy cat.

Just as they were relaxing and enjoying each others company, they heard something coming through the grass and WHOOSH! they scattered once again. Sammy flew up on to the roof, Henry rolled into a ball and Squeak scampered up a ramp to a ledge where she had more room this time.

Then a large brown dog appeared in the jungle but this time he wasn't barking and snarling. In fact he looked quite sheepish, which was funny because he was a sheep dog!

"Good afternoon everyone" he said in a quiet, very polite voice. "I have come to apologise for my most dreadful behaviour previously. I cannot imagine how much distress I may have caused you, especially you, little pussy cat. I am most dreadfully sorry."

Squeak was flabbergasted. Sammy stopped squawking, but Henry stayed rolled up---just in case.

"Why did you frighten us?" asked Squeak, but added very quickly "Not that I was scared!"

"Ah" said the dog. "I was supposed to be working but I had hurt my paw and had to stay home and I was in a VERY bad mood and angry with everyone, and you all looked so happy together. I cannot apologise enough and can assure you that this will never happen again. Good day to you."

The three friends were stunned but Squeak spoke up. "Thank you doggy. I am sorry you had a sore paw. May name is Squeak and I am adorable. The seagull on the roof is Sammy and the pin cushion at your feet is Henry. What is your name?"

"Enchanted to meet you, dear Squeak. My name is Diggory. Perhaps we may meet again."

And off he went leaving the kitten, the hedgehog and the seagull absolutely amazed.

"Is he for real?" they were all wondering.

All Mod Cons

I now have an outside drinking fountain. My DH put it out for me and when he switched it on, there was lots of lovely water coming out of it, and as it is nice and low, I can get a drink whenever I want without going into my house, so life is just getting better and better.


Today I am a rather tired wee puss 'cos I have been out lots and lots of times all day yesterday and all of this morning, and I even went out for quite a long time when it was dark last night, before nipping back in the window and going to bed. I am resting this afternoon so that I can do it again tonight.


Do you remember that I told you I was playing hide and seek with my MH in the big cupboard a long time ago? Well I did it again and I stayed hidden for ages and ages and ages before my DH found me. Both my humans thought I was out playing, but I had crept into the cupboard when the door was open and they didn't see me 'cos I am an undercover cat. So I explored the big cupboard and I climbed the ladder right up to the top shelf and sat there for a while until I got fed up and called for a human to let me out. And now that I think about it. It is maybe a good thing that I did call 'cos maybe they would have thought that I had run away and they would have been very, very sad.


I wouldn't like them to be very, very sad.

More Snow!

Yesterday I told you that I got snowed on. Well! Today it snowed some more and I was nearly a dalmatian cat!

It was snowing quite heavily and my humans opened the door for me to have a look at all these funny wee white things that were falling on my path.It was good fun trying to catch them, but then the horrible wind came and we had all to go into my house, but the snow couldn't come in too, so my DH opened the living room window and I peeped out, and that's when my MH took today's picture, and that's when I was nearly a dalmatian puss cat.

There are lots of little lambs in the fields beside my house and some are even littler than me, and I do feel sorry for them 'cos when it gets wet and cold, I can run into my house and get nice and dry and warm again, but the little lambs can't do that. Mind you, their mummy is all woolly and mine isn't, and maybe I should stop there!

Today is a special day for me 'cos I am twenty one weeks old today. 'What did I get for my birthday?' I hear you wonder. Did I get a special chew? NO.

Did I get a brand new collar? NO

Did I get a noisy toy? NO.

So what did I get? I-GOT-WEIGHED!!! The woman is obsessed!

Out came the Wii and MH and me had to get weighed. I have put on one whole pound and my Wii Mii says I am a perfect little specimen. So there. I have decided to be modest like my MH who says it's because she is so modest that everybody loves her, and I just nod my perfectly formed little head.

Obsessed AND Deluded! 'Nuff said.

Guess What?

I got snowed on today!! No, I am not dreaming or havering, it really was snowing f0r a wee while here and it was cold, and I was out playing at the time and I got snowed on!

It was the first time in my little life that I had been out in the snow and I am still not sure if I like it or not.

It was a nice morning and I had been out playing with all the funny wee ornaments my daddy human (DH) had put in the garden. We have lots of them now. Some are at the front of the house and some are at the other side, so I can play at whatever side I want to and I usually pick the side where I don't get blowed away.

So there was I minding my own wee business and having a sniff at all these odd things in my garden, when suddenly this wet white stuff landed on me and there was hail as well and that was sore on my little body, but as soon as it started my humans lifted me up and ran with me into the house where I watched all of the snow out of the window. It didn't last too long and I got out to play again, so it has been a funny old day!

I Forgot...

....to tell you that I was twenty weeks old last Tuesday!

I am getting so growed up now and am being very brave when I go outside to play. I even went out last night on my own in the dark. My humans left the window open so I could get in whenever I needed to, but it was good to be out playing at night time.

I have learned so many things already and have explored lots of brilliant places, but I know there are still lots of places to go and lots of animals that I still have to meet, so I am looking forward to a long summer filled with exciting adventures.


My humans have told me that in the summer it doesn't get dark here at all for a while, so I will have lots of time to be outside so that will be good, and I will have lots to tell you.


I have just had a thought. Next Tuesday, when I am twenty one, will I get the key to the cat-flap?

Hide and Squeak

Today's post is a puzzle. What is that hanging on to the clothes pole? The answer is in the second picture, although I think you might have guessed by now.

We have all been in the garden now as it has been another good day, although now that we are all finished, the rain has come on and I think my two humans are secretly relieved. MH got the awful lawn mower out again, but it didn't take too long this time and DH didn't need to use the strimmer, so it wasn't too noisy. Then she decided to wash the outsides of all the windows in my house, 'cos they were a wee bit dirty with the salt off the sea and the ash off the volcano. After that she washed her car, 'cos somebody had left wee sandy paw prints on it, and she doesn't know it was me. He He ! So while all that was going on, I just sloped off to my jungle for a wee bit peace and quiet.

When I came back, MH was varnishing the bench, but she wasn't in her birthday suit, just her old painting and varnishing clothes. Boy, am I glad about that, 'cos she told me what birthday suit really meant, and my little constitution would not be able to take that at all and I would probably need medication and cat therapy for the rest of my life.

So, dear feline friends, if your humans ever mention 'birthday suit' move out!
