Well...

... I am just full of beans today, so my day of rest yesterday has done me the world of good.

Although it is cool, the sun has been shining and it is just purr-fect weather for this adorable little pussy cat. I was up bright and early and after a light breakfast, I was outside and running around like a three year old---which is just what I am 'cos I am now three and a half years old and as adorable as ever, if not even adorabler! And oh so modest!

I sat in the grass for quite a while and just listened to the birdies as they were singing and I liked that and then I saw that my DH had come out and we went into the greenhouse and watered all our plants and as usual I purred to mine, but my DH just shook his head and smiled at me.

And then I got a big surprise 'cos the nice lady farmer from next  door arrived just outside my garden in her tractor with a  great big load of soil just for me! Well, it is really for my garden, but it is oh so lovely and soft when I am doing what all good pussy cats have to do, and I am helping to make it even better soil by leaving my little deposits, sure I am?

                            

I was a wee bit frightened but both my humans were with me and that made me feel safe so I watched as the tractor stopped and then C. lifted the big bucket on the front of it up really high and then tipped it over and I saw all the soil come falling out into my garden. My DH was a wee bit too close and he got some soil dust on him so he will need a long bath tonight to get all squeaky clean again . Poor DH!

I helped him when he was raking it all out and I had great fun rolling in the soil and digging it and I really love doing that, so I think I will be playing there tonight when I go out. I helped my MH with her exercises for a while, but I have spent most of my day outside and I have loved every single minute of it and I hope you have liked your day too.

Newsless

I don't have any news at all for you today because I haven't done very much. In fact I have been quite tired and have been in my wee hoose quite a lot today.

The weather hasn't been very good and it is a bit cool, but me and my MH were outside for a short time 'cos she washed the summer curtains for my living room and we went outside to hang them out to dry.

I managed to find enough energy to run round and round my garden and I climbed the three clothes poles while my MH hanged up her curtains but she was laughing at the funny things I was doing.

The fizzy-o lady told her that she doesn't have to do some of her exercises now but she has other ones to do and there is not an awful lot for me to do, but I still sit with her while she is working 'cos I know she likes it and it helps her a lot.

                         

I had a sleep in the afternoon until my DH came home with all our messages and he had lots of boxes tonight so I had great fun playing with them and the string.

So I suppose I have done quite a lot really. Especially for a sleepy pussy cat, but I am sure I will have lots more energy tomorrow and I shall be busy doing lots of things with my humans 'cos they are both at home with me all weekend and I like that a big lot!

Look!

I have a mushroom! Just one mushroom, but it is MY mushroom and my DH is a wee bit jealous 'cos he doesn't have a mushroom. But he doesn't purr to them like I do and that's why I have a mushroom and he doesn't.

               

I have been very busy today in my greenhouse and watching what my DH has been doing. He has been digging up one of our big pampas grasses and I have found the most adorable soft soil to --- well, I will leave it to your imagination what I do there, but it is oh, so comfortable. Aaah!!

My dear old MH was away swimming again so I only had one human to look after and I had quite an easy day with a lot of time to myself to do pussy cat things so I hunted and chased and slept and lay on the grass just watching the world go by and I was extremely content.

When I heard my MH's car, I ran back to my garden and waited for her 'cos I know I always get an extra special cuddle 'cos she misses me as much as I miss her.

I sat on her knee and she showed me some pictures of the sea mist which rolled in last night and I thought you might like to see this one. We can watch it rolling up the Flow and then in a wee while all my little island is covered in white until it rolls away again. I like it, but I prefer when the sun is shining and it is nice and warm and that's what I am keeping my paws crossed for  for tomorrow.

            

I hope you have weather you like too.

I should have known----

I should have suspected that something was afoot when my cage arrived in my kitchen from the gym where it usually stays, but I wasn't thinking and it creept up on me. Oh, dear feline friends, and human friends too, I am still traumatised. I have been to the VET!!!

I got up bright and early today 'cos the sun was shining and as I wakened up, I had my day all planned out in my adorable little head.

1)  Have a light breakfast and take a wander round my estate

2) Find a nice warm, soft bit of grass and lie down to let said breakfast settle.

3) Look for mouses and birdies to have a chat to.

4) Wander back home and help my humans.

Sounds good, doesn't it? But it didn't work. As I went into my kitchen, my MH was putting my blanket into the cage----they call it my travelling box, I call it a cage! And before you could say 'Squeak is adorable' I was lifted up and thrown inside the cage, then put in the back of my DH's car with him driving and my MH sitting beside me trying to console me, but I was so shocked that I was even meowing! Now, as you know, I rarely meow, but I did the pussy cat nation proud today. I started off with an angry one, then a pleading one, then a 'I promise I will be good for ever' one and then a sad one and this made my MH upset too.

Anyway, we arrived at the pier and I was taken out, still in the cage, and a nice lady came into the waiting room and gave me an injection and a big examination and she said I was beautiful and very well indeed and then she put me back in the cage and we went back into the car where said yowling started all over again 'cos I didn't know where I was going.

When we got back, I didn't recognise my house and my DH opened the cage in the car, but I thought I was somewhere else and I wouldn't get out. But then I saw my grass. Oh my lovely, lovely grass-- and my path and I runned up the path as fast as my little legs would take me, but I am afraid that they were still a wee bit shaky from all the upset and it took me longer than usual, but I ran into my kitchen, saw my feeding bowl and my water bowl and knew I was back in my own house again. Phew!

I have been a wee bit tired today due to all this excitement, but I did find a little birdie to talk to and told her all about my trip to the V-E-T and the little birdie was very sympathetic.

                                     

And the CAGE is back in the gym, but they won't catch me the next time. Of that I am very, very sure!

What a Day

I have had one of the best pussy cat days of my en-tire little life today and it has made me a very happy pussy cat.

The weather is still very good and so all my doors and windows are open which means I can come and go just as I please and I love being outside when the weather is good.

When the dreaded vacuum cleaner came out, as it always does on a Monday, I just ignored it and walked nonchalantly outside with my tail in the air and sat on the grass until my MH was finished all her work and then she came outside to see where I was and when she found me, we played and played for a long time and I loved it.

We went into they gym for a while and I sniffed around for a bit and then went into my garden to wait until her little legs were finished and then we went inside for a wee seat and some lunch and I sat on her knee and she talked to me and I purred back.

My DH was in our greenhouse, so I went to have a wee look to see what he was doing, but I was soon outside again enjoying the sunshine and it was then that I noticed that my MH was heading out with the lawn mower to cut my grass, but I just ignored that too and sat on the bench and watched her and she liked that. I think it helps her when she sees me there giving her some encouragement.

When she finished that and put the mower away, we went down the path to put some water in the big bath 'cos I have a daddy bull and a baby cow in the field in front of my house and they like it when I give them a wee drink. I don't think I will go into the field though 'cos the bull is HUGE, so I will just watch the baby cow from a safe distance.

By this time I was feeling a wee bit tired, so I am having a nap in my peedie hoose, but I am sure I shall be outside until very late tonight and if I shall tell you all about it tomorrow, but I hope you are as happy as I am.

                                           

Happy Squeak

I have had a very good weekend so far and I am extremely happy. Much happier than I was last week when I was abandoned for days and days and days!

I know that is a slight exaggeration, but that's what it felt like. My MH says I have the makings of becoming a pussy cat diva and I have far too much imagination, and that got me thinking!

                                                              

I have decided to become a world famous author and I am going to write books all about ME! I shall call them The Adorable Squeak which I think says it all. I know the world is waiting for just such a series of books and I could become the cats world's J.K. Rowling.

I will take myself off every morning to a quiet place on my little island and there I shall pen the adventures of the day and I am sure in no time at all my fame will have spread around the world and people will flock here in their millions to see me, to stroke me and to get my paw-tograph! The boat company will be very happy 'cos they will make millions of pennies through my fame, and I shall definitely become a diva then.

I shall wear dark sunglasses, a straw hat and learn to purr in a very sophisticated manner, although that will just be for my fans. I shall just be normal me for my humans and all my friends 'cos I really don't think my MH would let me away with any nonsense.

Yes. I think that is definitely a cracking idea and all I need to do now is learn to write! Hee hee  :)))

Cat-astrophe

Almost! I was nearly done-for today, and it was all my own fault for being nosey. It was nearly my last bout of nosiness!

I shall explain. My MH was putting away some of my DH's T-shirts in his drawer and I was wandering about the bedroom when I noticed that the drawer was open. SO! As my MH turned away, I nipped in the back of the open drawer and she didn't see me, so she tried to shut the drawer, but oddly enough, it wouldn't close properly!! And we all know why, don't we? She pulled it right out to see what had fallen down the back and there was ME! Not very happy and rather sheepish, but I got a big cuddle when I finally managed to wriggle my way out and my humans called me a silly sausage. And I don't suppose I can argue with them, can I?

After that the day just got a lot better. We were all in the greenhouse as you can see from today's picture, although this is me looking in at them for a change. Then me and my MH played with her window machine and now all my windows are sparkling and after that we sat outside for a while and I played on the grass and then sat on the bench with my MH and we had a rest which we both liked.

                                      

It is still warm and there is no wind and no rain so I am hoping it stays like that so that I can get out to play for a long time later on.

And I shall have to tell all the little mouses about my very narrow escape although I shall change the story a bit so that it wasn't my fault at all.

I can't have them thinking I am a silly puss, can I? Definitely not good for the image!
