Not Much News

I have a very quiet day today so I don't have a lot to tell you.

Both of my humans went away on the boat at a quarter to eleven this morning but they came home again at half past twelve and my MH had got her hair cut, so she was happy. She wanted to look tidy for the New Year. What is it with these humans and the New Year? My house has been all cleaned and I have had quite a time of it trying to escape the hoover and the duster and even the washing machine! But I have been promised a rest now for a lot of days, so I am looking forward to that.

My humans have told me that they will be going out very late tonight but they said they won't stay out too long, so I shall just have a snooze until they come back, and then I will go out and wish all my little animal friends a happy new year.

But before I do, I would like to wish all my feline and human friends all over the world a very happy new year and I hope that 2014 will be a very good year for you all.

A Super Day

Yep! I have had a super, duper day. I had a lovely long sleep curled up beside my MH and when we got up, we went outside to feed all the little birdies and I sat on my window sill and watched them as they gobbled up all their dinner. There were lots and lots of starlings all flying past my window and I just sat and wagged my little tail at them and my MH said I was a very good pussy cat. But we all knew that already, didn't we?

I watched her as she did all her housework and I sat on the back of my couch where the awful vacuum cleaner couldn't get to me. My MH did a lot of cleaning 'cos she says the house has got to be very clean for the new year coming in, so I guess me and my DH will be getting cleaned up too!

We then did some baking and, as usual, she made a wee baby pancake for me as well as some bigger ones for my DH and a fruit loaf for him too. My MH's friend M. made us a brilliant Christmas cake and my MH has been eating that 'cos it has lots of icing and marzipan on it and she loves that, so we are all very happy.

I was having a snooze as my MH had to go out in the afternoon, but I got a big surprise when she came back 'cos she brought my friend S. back with her and they both played with me for a long, long time which was great fun and I made S. laugh when I wriggled my adorable little bum before I attacked the toy that she was holding. Oh, these humans are so easy to please!

I am going to have my dinner now and then I shall have my usual après-dinner snooze before I go out to play, so I am just the happiest little puss in the world just now, and I hope you are happy too.

Another Good Day

I think the naughty wind has gone away because we have had a lovely day and I have been very happy as I have been outside lots and lots. There has been a lot of rain so my grass is very wet and when I came back in, my MH noticed that my four adorable little feets were all wet. Not quite 'ringing' but very wet just the same and she dried them for me with an old kitchen towel and it tickled a wee bit. :-))

My humans had to go out this afternoon because it was the island Nativity Play that my MH was doing with the little childrens. It was supposed to have been on Christmas Eve, but it was such a storm that my MH didn't want to go out and she didn't want the childrens to go out either in case they all got blowed away together before Santa could get to them, so they waited until today which meant I was all alone for a while, but I was OK.

When they came home, my MH sat me on her knee and told me all about it and then we played with my toys for a long, long time and that made us both very happy.

The nice farmer man from next door came in and I am afraid I gave him a wee fright again because while he was sitting on my couch talking to my DH, I was sniffing at his feets and then his jumper and then his wee bald spot and that's when I made him jump, but then we all giggled and he wasn't angry.

How could you be angry with an adorable little puss such as I?

Fun Time

I have been having lots of fun today playing in my house with my MH and all my toys. I have given them all a wee play 'cos I don't want them to feel neglected, but I have so many that it takes me a long time to play with them all.

I went outside last night but I came home early so that the old dears could get to bed and they appreciated that. I was in and out quite a lot today but it was a bit too wet for me, so that's when I decided that I would be much happier, and drier!, playing inside.

I made my MH laugh when I was playing with one of my toys on a stick 'cos she had put it on the rocking chair and I was on the floor watching her. So I made an enormous 'spring' up on to the chair, but it is leather and quite slidey so I slid right across the chair, through the other arm and back on to the floor at the other side of it. Well, my MH chuckled and chuckled, but I gave her a look which said 'that's exactly what I meant to do', but I don't think she believed me, somehow.

She was telling my DH and she said I had 'skited' across the chair and landed on the floor and he laughed too. Now, 'skited' is a Scottish word that my MH uses and it means when something slides and the 'i' in skited is pronounced the same as the 'i' in ice. OK?

So, peas can skite off plates, people can skite on the ice and adorable pussy cats can skite on slippy floors or slidey chairs. See?

We played some more and then she tooked this lovely picture of yours truly, so that you could see me looking really happy.

I hope you are happy too and don't skite too much. Hee hee.

Yippee

I am happy because I have been out playing all day because my little island is very quiet with no wind and no rain and I like it like that.

I am also a wee bit sad for all the people who have got wet houses. That would not be a good thing to have at all. My MH told me that years and years ago, before they ever came to my little island, their house got flooded with lots of rain and they were OK except that they kept all their shoes in a cupboard just inside the front door, so when all the dirty water came in, it went into the cupboard and made all their shoes wet, so my MH had only a pair of trainers and my DH a pair of wellingtons until they could get to the shops to buy new ones. So she knows a wee bit what all these poor people are feeling like and we are both very sorry for them.

I went outside last night about ten o'clock and I had so much to do and so many wee creatures to speak to, that it tooked me a long, long time and I didn't come back home again until two o'clock this morning much to the annoyance of my dear old humans.

My DH was very tired and decided that he had to get to bed, so he wakened the Boss and she had to get up and wait for me to come home. I heard her calling and like the very good puss I am, said 'night night' to all my little friends, and nipped up onto the window sill and she let me in, then fed me and I curled up for a big sleep beside her.

I have been a bit sleepy today so whenever I have come inside, I have had a power nap on my couch so that I will have lots of energy and stamina for a long time outside later on.

My little weather man friend has said that the weather on my little island will be good with no wind for the next few days, so I shall need to make the most of it before the gales come back again.

I hope all my friends out there are safe and this awful weather has not spoiled your Christmas.

Funny!

We all had a lovely Christmas day and by the time I jumped up onto my little bed for the night, my adorable little tummy was filled up to the top but I was very, very happy.

I had a good sleep, but when I wakened up I got a great big fright 'cos I thought I had gone deaf! I woke up, had my usual little stretch and then heard----nothing! Not a sound!! Silence!!!

I was just about to wriggle my little lugs with my paws when my MH said 'Great. No wind!' Wow, what a great big relief. Well, two reliefs really. One that I wasn't deaf and two that there wasn't any wind. I got up very quickly and gobbled up my breakfast and then went outside to play and it was lovely! My little feets stayed on the ground and I didn't get blowed about and I was able to run and jump and play which made me a very happy little Squeak.

After a wee while, we were all sitting in my living room and my MH saw this beautiful rainbow which stretched right over my little island and at one point there were two rainbows at the same time, so that is double lucky, I think.

Then a wee while later, she noticed the sun shining and she tooked this lovely picture of me and my little shadow and I think it is very lovely, so I hope you like it too.

Happy Christmas Everybody

Not much news today 'cos we are all having a lovely, lazy Christmas Day, but I wanted to send you all my very best wishes and show you one of my Christmas presents.

It might look a bit too big for yours truly, but I will give my friends and my humans a tiny bit each. My friend M. made it for me and I am looking forward to getting my adorable little teeths into it after my dinner tonight!

I have had a good day so far and I didn't get any toys 'cos I already have more than I can play with, but I got lots of goodies for my little tummy and that makes me very happy.

I hope you all have a safe and happy Christmas and thank you for reading my blog every day. I love writing it for you.
