Excitement

There was a wee bit of excitement in my house this morning. Me and my MH were up first and when we went into the living room, there was one of my little birdie friends flying around! Oh my, what a surprise we all got. It was flying about the room and I just watched it. It settled down on my window sill and I jumped up beside it to give it a wee cuddle. I wasn't going to hurt it, but my MH told me to leave the little birdie and she gave it a safer cuddle then opened the window to let it fly away again. And we were all very happy ---'specially the little birdie!

My day just got better after that as it was so lovely and warm that all the windows and the door were open so I could come and go just as I wanted. My MH was busy doing all the housework she couldn't do yesterday and my DH was working at her little kangaroo car 'cos it is sick and won't go for her and she is not best pleased which meant I had to cheer her up lots of times, but I know just what do do. Shall I tell you? Okey dokey. I sit very close to her and I purr very loudly and then I give her chin some of my gentle-ish head butts and she likes those 'cos they make her laugh so then I know she isn't fed up any more. My DH smiles too when he sees me doing this 'cos he thinks it makes me look sooooo cute! Yep, spot on DH!!

There were lots of times when the old dear came outside with me and I helped her wash all the outsides of the windows 'cos I am afraid that some of my little birdie friends had done something they shouldn't have---if you know what I mean? But we got them all clean and sparkling again and the Boss is happy. Today's picture is me watching a fly on my window and I am trying to tell it not to make a mess of it.

I was able to stay out as long as I wanted last night and the old boy even left the window open all night which meant I was able to go out when it was really, really late. It doesn't get dark on my little island and I just love being out when everybody on the island is sound asleep and it's just me, the mouses and some of the night time birdies. I think I am definitely a summer time puss.

I hope you are enjoying your summer time too if it is summer time where you are, that is.There are people all over this whole wide world that know all about me and that makes me a wee bit very excited. I hope you enjoy reading all about me.

All Alone....

.... but not too unhappy. It was another glorious day on my beloved little island, but both my humans had to go to Stromness so I was left all on my own from half past ten o'clock in this morning until four o'clock in this afternoon.

It was fine really 'cos as the weather was so good, they could leave the window open for me and I could come and go as much as I liked. The only wee problem is that I don't have any news for you. Shame!

I had a very good night as I was out playing until very late and although both my humans went to bed, the window stayed open so that meant that I could nip in for a snooze and then nip out again and I had the very bestest of fun. When I was finally tired, I nipped in beside my MH and had the loveliest snooze until it was morning and time to start all over again.

Oh, I love being me when the weather is like this and I hope you like being you, too. I will have lots more news for you tomorrow, I hope.

A Beautiful Day

It has been so lovely on my little island that I have been outside all day. I haven't done very much except lie on my lovely new cut grass or have a roll on my path and I have been as warm as toast.

All the little birdies have been out too and they have been singing to me and that made me happy. Even the little sheeps look as though they are smiling, so it has been a very good day for all my little animal friends.

My humans have liked it too and they have been out lots of times to see what I was doing and my MH is getting more and more freckles with all the sun. She told me that when she was a wee girl, her grandma told her that freckles were fairy kisses and my MH has MILLIONS of them in the summer, so there must be lots and lots of fairies about my house and garden!

I did watch a wee bit of television with my MH when Andy was playing, but to be honest, it was too good a day to be inside, so I went out again and just kept nipping in to see how he got on, but I'm afraid he didn't win. Next time, Andy!

So, I have had a very good day and I am hoping that the weather will be good tomorrow 'cos my MH is going to Stromness tomorrow and that means I will be left all alone, but if the weather is good, I shall just stay in my garden till the humans come back again and I won't feel so lonely.

I hope your day has been as good as mine.

I Have a Story For You

I have had a great day, but I had an even better night last night. My humans said I was a bit naughty, but I say I was just being high spirited. Shall I explain? Of course, I hear you yell. So, are you sitting comfortably? OK, here goes.

As you know, my humans went away and left me all alone last night while they went to Stromness for a meal. It was a fine evening, so they left the window open for me, but to be honest, I sat on my chair and I think I must have dozed off, for the next thing I heard was them coming home to me again. So, this meant I had a lot of energy still to be used up. I went out to play for quite a while before they went to bed, but during the night I wakened up feeling full of beans and I asked my MH would she please play with me, but she told me she was too tired 'cos it was the middle of the night and would I please go away and let her sleep.

Well, I wasn't best pleased but in all my six years I have learned not to argue with her when she is tired, so I decided to amuse myself and off I went exploring in our bedroom. I made a 'plop' sound as I landed on the ottoman on top of my MH's dressing gown and as she hadn't got back to sleep again, she told me later that she was half watching to see what I was doing. Just in case! Hmm, wise woman!

There were another couple of 'plops' as I took my adorable little self onto the dressing table and then a bigger 'plop' as I landed on top of the wardrobe. At this point, my MH was wide away and sort of whispered a shout at me to get down. So.....

.... I launched my adorable little self off the top of said wardrobe and landed on top of my sound asleep DH. I will give you a minute to conjure up that picture. OK? Did he get a fright? Did he shout at me? Did he waken? NO! He did NOT! He grunted and turned over and didn't even know I was there! This made my MH giggle so I launched my little self at her, and she DID know I had landed! But she cuddled me and we had a wee chat until I falled asleep again. Magic. We told my DH all about it this morning and he just shooked his head and thought we were telling porkies. As if we would!!

Sure that's a good story today? Hee hee

A Much Gooder Day

When I wakened up this morning, I ran to the window and saw that it wasn't wet, so as soon as I had gobbled up my breakfast, I was out into my garden and I was very, very happy.

It had been raining yesterday so the grass is still too wet for the old dear to be cutting it, so I knew I would get peace and quiet as long as I was outside. Lovely! Although it was still a wee bit windy, the window could be left open so I was able to nip in and out as much as I liked, so I have hardly been in my house at all today. I just nip in every now and then to make sure my humans are OK and to get a wee cuddle and sometimes a wee feed. I have had it just the way I like it, thank you very much!

I just had a wee bit of a disappointment when my DH came back with the boxes 'cos they were stuck with parcel tape again which isn't nearly as good fun to play with. In fact, I can't play with it at all!

So, my day has been good, but my MH told me some bad news and that is that I have to be left all alone tonight 'cos for some reason known only to himself, my DH has decided to take my MH over to Stromness for her dinner. I did tell him she was quite happy making her dinner here with me, but he said they were going and that was that! Not a happy Squeak!

It will just be for a wee while though, and I think they will probably leave the window open for me and then I will be able to play for a while when they come home to me again.

So I suppose I shouldn't really complain.....but I will! Hee hee.

Rained Off

Ho hum. I am back to being a not so very happy little puss 'cos I can't get out to play 'cos it is raining! Boo. I don't mind a little bit of rain, but I prefer it when it goes away quickly and I can get out to play in my garden again. But today it didn't go away and I was inside all day. Boo, number two!

My humans were both busy and my DH got a bit wet going in and out of our greenhouse, but I had more sense and just watched him from my nice warm, dry couch and waited for him to come in again. My MH was busy with her cleaner and duster and then she decided to do some baking for us and me and him liked that---lots!

I played with my humans when I needed to use up my energy and I sat and looked out of my window and the little sheeps who didn't seem to mind that it was raining. In fact, some of them looked as though they didn't even know it was wet! Maybe if I let my little coat grow long and thick, then I could go outside and not get wet. Hmm I wonder how long that would take? Maybe I could ask Mr. Google.I have never met him yet, but my humans keep talking about him and he seems to know everything! Even more that my MH!! And that is MILLIONS!

Me and my MH thought you might like to see one of my swallow birdie friends that fly across my garden in the summer. They are lovely birdies and now that they don't dive bomb me, I like them a lot better.

I Think....

.... I will have to stop watching Andy playing tennis 'cos my adorable little head is buzzing and my nerves are all jangling after this afternoon. I am so happy he won but me and my dear old MH don't think we are strong enough to watch any more matches. BUT--he has been brilliant and I know my MH doesn't want to miss any more games, so I think she will probably watch him, but I think I might hide.

I have had a good day although I have needed a few wee snoozes 'cos I was out very late last night. My DH needed to get to bed quite early so that he could get up in time to go to the Cat Shop, so he decided to leave the window open for me and that meant that I could stay out as long as I wanted and then when I was ready, I just nipped in through the window, jumped up beside my MH and told her I was home, so she got up and closed the window and then she told me it was nearly two o'clock in this morning! Oops!

I sat on my window sill and watched the little sheeps and then I had a wander out into the fields beside them and for a long time I just lay there watching them all jumping and running and it made me very happy to watch them.

They are really beautiful little animals and they all play like little children running round in a gang and playing with one another and sometimes I wish I had another wee puss to play with but then I think about playing with my MH and I realise that's all I want.

My humans make me very, very happy.
