Monday Again

... and we are all back to normal. I am very happy to tell you that my house is a lot better today than it was last Monday. I have been a lot happier today. I didn't tell you last week 'cos I thought you might think I was a silly puss, but last Monday when the carpet men came to my house, I was a wee bit so upset that I ran away and hided under one of the beds.

I had been there for quite a while 'cos both my humans were busy, but then my MH noticed that I wasn't around and she came looking all over my house for me but couldn't find me. She knew I wasn't under my couch 'cos it was all in bits and then she had a brainwave and she lay down on the floor in my bedroom and looked under the bed and there I was--all sad and a wee bit lonely. She called for me and I went running up to her. Well, it was more of a shuffle really 'cos I WAS under the bed, you see.

I snuggled up to her and purred while she stroked me and told me everything would be just fine and that made me feel a whole lot better, so I just nipped up on to the top of my bed and had a snooze till she came back in again. So you can see how today was ever so much better.

The old boy nipped over to the Cat Shop, my MH nipped into the cupboard to get her vacuum cleaner and dusters and I nipped out into the wind and I loved it! And that's how my day has been. A rest on my couch, a wee play outside and then in for a heat and a cuddle and then outside again. Brilliant!

I like normal Mondays and my MH has told me that all my days will be normal for a long time now, so that makes me a very happy little Squeak!

A New Game

Yes. I have invented a new game for me and my MH and we both love it, although it might need a tiny wee tweak just to make it purr-fect!

When we are in the kitchen and I want to play, I scoot as fast as I can into my living room and hide behind the door and wait till the old dear finds me. See? So, why does it need tweaked? Well, it's a GLASS door! Oops I did wonder how she kept finding me so quickly and then it dawned on me. I had a wee blush but nobody noticed.

I have had a very good day and have been in and out lots of times. I didn't let the wind or the rain bother me one little bit and then every time I came in, I had to stand on my chair until my MH got some tissues or a towel to make me dry again, and then she had to go and wash all my adorable little paw marks off said chair! She does get a wee bit peeved at having to do this a lot, but I can't help it so she understands.

We had a play together with my toys and today I chose all my little mouses and I had super fun and then when we were finished, I got a very special cuddle and you can see how happy we both are.

I hope you are happy too.

A Good Day

We all had a long sleep this morning and as me and my MH had a wee nocturnal chinwag in the middle of last night, we were both a wee bit tired today so we didn't get up too early. I love when we have a chat in the middle of the night when it is so very dark that she can nearly not see me, but she can always hear me 'cos I purr for her when she is talking to me. She strokes me and cuddles me while she tells me she loves me millions and I like that lots. And what is my DH doing all this time? Yep, he is snoring!

When I finally did get up, I had my little drip of milk and then went out to play. It was a wee bit wet and quite windy, but nothing to worry yours truly so I was in and out a lot of times today. There are still some sheeps in the field beside my house, so I have some company when I am out, but the grass is very wet and to be honest, I would rather be inside playing with my humans, but I need to be outside to get some fresh air into these adorable little lungs and to use up some of my energy.

I always make sure I have plenty of 'oomph' left to play in my house and some times my MH chases me all over the house and I just love that game 'cos I can hide in little spaces that she can NEVER get into and that makes her giggle.

I have had a wee sniff at my Christmas tree but I know that I am not supposed to climb it so I get as close as I am allowed and just look at it. Maybe I will have just a little climb when they both go out.

After all, that's what trees are for, sure it is?

Nearly

It is nearly my birthday and I have started counting the days and it is only eleven more days until I am an adorable six year old kitten-cat. I still love to play with my humans like a kitten but I have all the wisdom and cleverness of a growed-up cat, so I think I am just the perfect little package and my humans think so too.

It is always a bit of a problem for me at this time of the year 'cos I have to decide what I want for my birthday and what they should get me for Christmas. I don't want to appear too greedy, but I still love getting things, so I am sure you understand my little problem. I shall sleep on it for a night or two and I am sure something will spring to this adorable little mind.

I have been in and out lots of times today and quite a few times I have come in very wet and have had to wait until my humans get something suitable to dry me with. I also got into a wee bit of trouble 'cos I left lots of perfectly formed paw prints on my chair and on my couch and my dear old MH had had to get a wet cloth and clean them all off and no sooner were they all nice and dry and clean again, than I put more paw prints on them and my MH just sighed. But then she smiled, cuddled me and told me she loved me millions. Bless!

I had a wee play with my games as well and I asked the old dear to play 'cos I don't want her to feel left out, so we had a happy afternoon. I might try to go out later, but it is getting very wet and windy on my little island so I will have to have a think. I do love my nocturnal jaunts and have managed out every night since I was a baby puss, so I don't see why it should stop now!

So, there Mr. Wind. You can't frighten me!!

Not Just So Good

I've had a good day, but not as good as normal 'cos both my humans were away out and I was left all alone which I don't really like, as you know. My MH had to take her eyes to to a 'optishan' who said that she could see OK, but surely my MH knows if she can see or not? I don't really understand that bit, but when I feel like it, I shall sit on her knee and let her explain it all to me.

I had a very quiet day but to be honest, I enjoyed the peace and quiet and the fact that I could just wander from chair to chair and room to room without tripping over workmen or carpets and I liked that. I had a good rest until my humans came home and then I sat with the old dear and let her stroke me and talk to me 'cos I know she likes that too.

So, although it hasn't been a brilliant day, it hasn't been a bad day either and tonight can only get better. The weather so far is fine so I am making the most of it 'cos my little weather man friend told me that the wind is going to be a gale and a big gale at that all weekend so I am going to need all my intrepidness I think and I have to save that up, so I shall rest.

I like the resting bit!

Whoop-De-Doo

I have had another lovely day and I have had millions of cuddles, so my little life is well and truly back on track and I am very happy. I stayed out very late last night and was almost in danger of having to stay out the WHOLE night! That would have been terrible and my MH would have missed me cuddling into her, so on the very last whistle----I knew by the tone of it that it was the last--- I wandered home and when I looked at the clock it told me that it was nearly two o'clock in this morning and my poor old DH was a wee bit tired and wanted to go to his bed, but I need to be home before they can both settle down, so that's how I was just a tad on the naughty side.

I didn't get up too early this morning and then I helped my MH do a wee bit of housework but all the time she was talking to me and every now and then I would nip outside for a play and then when I came home I got lots of cuddles.

There's not a lot of news but my living room is right back to normal again and we all like our new carpet, so it was worth all the hard work but I am glad it is all finished. I thought that we were all going to have a lazy day tomorrow, but my humans have to go away to Kirkwall so I am to be left all alone for the whole day.

However, they have promised that the weekend will be as lazy as I want so I am looking forward to that. I can hardly wait.

Squeak Rules Supreme

I have had a crackin' day and I have been ever so happy and you all know why, don't you? Yes. All the work is finished and my house is back the way it should be and I have been promised there will be no more upheaval for a long, long time.

I made my humans and the carpet-laying men giggle yesterday 'cos when they brought my couch back into the living room, I nipped up onto the back where I normally sit and sat there purring and when my MH explained that this was my normal sitting place, the men just smiled and stroked me and of course, I purred louder.

My humans have been doing some work today just making sure that everything is just right for me---and them, of course---but there has been plenty of time for me and I have been a little demanding I'm afraid, but my humans understand that I have been a little upset over the past day or two and they realise that I need lots of cuddles and that's what I have been getting.Happy Squeak.

The weather is a wee bit better and I have been in and out lots and lots but it is just the bestest feeling to know that when I come back in the window there is a carpet for my little feets and a couch for my adorable little bum.

That's all I ask. Well, that and some food, lots of cuddles and a comfortable bed to sleep in when my exploring is all done. That's not too much to ask, now, is it?
