Night Time

I have been out for hours and hours these past few night and I am having the bestest fun ever. Chasing and sniffing and hunting---just magic. I think I might become a night time pussy cat, although I do like cuddling up to my MH when it is cold and windy, so I am a wee bit torn just now.

My little friend the weatherman says that the wind is going to be gale force this week and there might even be snow, so that may curtail my nocturnal activities---we shall see.

My MH got a new mobile phone today and there was a lot of funny words being said as she got it all set up----and I don't think it is right yet! Oh joy!! Me and my DH might be better staying out of her way.

I shall let you know when the coast is clear! Be good fellow felines.

Hunting Again

I was out a lot last night---for hours and hours in the dark and it was so calm that I could hear all the wee mouses and I could see them play with them, so I was having such good fun that I didn't want to go inside, and I just got in before my humans put out all the lights and went to bed.

I have had another brilliant idea and it came to me when I was watching my television last week. There was a programme on about the 'Up Helly'A' parade in Shetland and all these big, brave vikings were marching through the streets, and I thought, since I am a brave puss maybe I could be a Viking pussy cat! My MH could maybe make me a helmet, and I wouldn't need horns on it 'cos I could stick my adorable little ears through and they would stick up. She could make me a woolly coat 'cos there are plenty of sheeps here. I wouldn't need a sword 'cos my teeth are sharp and my claws are lethal. So I think I would be the perfect candidate for the job.

I wonder who I need to write to?

WELL........

.......my window plan didn't work last night, but it nearly did. Let me explain. I was sitting very quietly and very innocently while my humans were getting ready to go to the Hall for their Wii night, and I pretended I didn't mind at all. So far so good.

The weather sounded fine and I was sure my luck was in especially when my MH told my DH that she would leave the window open for me. YESSSSS!! I was delirious with happiness and anticipation. So just as they were about to leave, my MH opened the window, and I couldn't believe my adorable little eyes, 'cos the horrible wind had got up and the curtains were flying all over the place. Even the pictures were grabbing on to the walls in case they would blow away. So guess what? The window got closed again. NOOOOOOO!!!!

I was a very disappointed pussy cat and even a special cuddle from MH just before she left didn't help at all. I had to be content with having a wee snooze till they came back, which wasn't too late.

Things then got much, much better 'cos when they came in, I went out the door side of the house which was a wee bit sheltered, and I found a MOUSE!!! YESSSS again! We played for ages and ages running round my garden and then finally it got away from me and I went inside and went to sleep.

So, all in all, it wasn't a bad night, but I am just a tad tired today. All this big game hunting is exhausting for a peedie (wee) pussy cat.

Ho Hum!

Still no birdies at MY birdbath and I am getting a wee bit fed up waiting. My MH says it is because I am there that the birds won't come, but if I am not there, then I can't play with them. What is a puss cat to do?

AND, my humans have just told me that they are going to the Hall tonight where everybody is going to play on the Wii and I am not invited!! You all know that I am very good on the Wii and yet I have to stay home. Oh dear, what is a puss cat to do?

I have been helping my DH to get his greenhouse ready for all his plants and vegetables and then I lay on the back of my couch and watched my MH making some more cards. She has been very busy making these 'cos she says she likes to do it during the winter so that she can play outside with me in the summer, so I am not complaining.

There has been no wind today so we have been able to leave the living room window open and I can nip in and out whenever I feel like and that makes me happy.

A thought. If my humans leave it open tonight when they go out, I could nip out and go to the Hall to play on the Wii!

A brilliant idea!!!

Out and About

I have been outside nearly all day as the weather has been good and I have been lying very still beside the new Squeak---oops, sorry birdbath, but no birdies came down to see me.

My DH was in his greenhouse getting it ready for the Spring and as my MH had the AWFUL vacuum cleaner out, I went outside too and me and my DH had a nice quiet time in his greenhouse. I wonder if I will get any tomato plants this year to talk to?

When I went inside, I got some lovely cat chocolates which I gobbled up. I don't get real chocolates 'cos my MH says they are not good for me, and between you and me, dear readers, they ain't doing her much good either, but that is strictly between you and me, or I shall definitely be in the soup pot!

I am off for a wee snooze on top of her lap top now. I like there 'cos it is nice and cosy for me and my MH talks to me when she is using it, so we are both happy.

I hope you are happy too.

I TOLD You So!!

I have been in the new birdbath! Just as you knew I would!

My MH was away out this morning for a wee while so my DH and me decided to surprise her and put the new birdbath outside so it would be ready when she came home. We worked very hard and I had a wee wander round my garden every now and then to see if there were any mouses about, but I didn't find any, so I just went back to work.

When my MH came home she was delighted with us and because she was so pleased, I knew she wouldn't be angry if I nipped into the birdies bath for a wee look. There wasn't any water in it, and there weren't any birdies near us, so it was OK. I don't want to frighten the birdies away 'cos I know they have to have a wee feed, but when they are not there, I might have a wee drink out of the bird bath ----when my humans are not looking.

We even have a wee plastic robin and blue tit for me to play with too, but they are in the shed until Spring time.

I am looking forward to Spring and Summer!

New Toy

My humans went into Kirkwall today to do some shopping and I was a very good pussy cat while they were away and they played with me when they came home so that was OK.

They told me they had had a good day and had bought lots of goodies for me and for them, but the bestest one of all that they bought is a birdbath. Oh Joy! We have a bit outside the kitchen window like a patio where we can sit in the summer and my MH decided that a birdbath would be nice there, so it has arrived.

It is quite tall and has a bit for water and a place for food too, and my MH thinks that I will not touch it and she told me it was just for the birdies and not for me.

But everyone out there knows different!!!
