Something New

I have learned something new today. There was something on my television this morning that my humans wanted to see 'cos it was about Orkney, so my MH didn't take out her vacuum cleaner and as soon as I saw her sitting on my couch, I plopped my adorable little self onto her knee and watched it too.

I was half watching and half snoozing but then a funny noise wakened me up fully and I looked at my television and got a great big surprise for the man making the funny noise was the same man that comed to my house a couple of weeks ago to stick a great big needle in me! It was my V-E-T man and he was playing his bagpipes. I didn't know what they were called, but I asked she who thinks she knows everything and she told me what they were, so now I know. I don't know if I like the noise, but maybe I will listen again.

I had lots of plays outside and I was in the field with all my little lamb friends and I liked that. My humans were outside with me lots of times and you know how happy that makes me.

I was just a tiny bit naughty last night 'cos just as my DH was thinking about going to bed, I asked him to please let me out and he said he would if I didn't stay out too long. Now, I didn't promise, you understand and I got all caught up in watching the baby sheeps so I sort of ignored his whistle and it was a bit very late by the time I decided to go back inside and he was a tad annoyed and a big bit tired, but he forgived me.

Well, you knew he would, didn't you?

And Another Week Begins

I think it will be a good week though 'cos when I went out into the fields last night there were lots of little lambs all ready to play with me and because they are a bit older now, the mummy sheeps don't mind if I go into the field beside them, so it is just a wee hop through the fence and I have lots of company.

It was a normal day for my humans with my DH sailing away to the Cat Shop and my MH playing with her dusters and the vacuum cleaner, so I was happy to be able to get outside. The weather wasn't great but it wasn't as warm as I like it. However, while my MH was working in our kitchen, she left the door open and I could lie on my path and watch her.

Our house only has one door and the leads into a wee porch which then opens up into my kitchen so you will understand how I can lie on my path and watch her. I like that 'cos she sometimes talks to me while she is working.

We both had a wander round my garden today and I ran and sniffed and climbed a few poles while the old dear watched me and she liked it 'cos I heard her telling my DH all about it when he came home and he smiled too.

I have been having lots of rests in my wee hoose and that makes my humans smile too 'cos they never know where I am going to have my many little sleeps. We have three bedrooms in my house so I just wander from room to room deciding which one I will rest in, but of course I don't tell anyone and they have to come looking for me.

But I am never too far away and they always can find me---eventually!

And a Crackin' Sunday

We were all up a wee bit earlier than normal on a Sunday 'cos my DH was going to the Cat Shop. 'On a Sunday?'I hear you think. Yes. You see this is the Folk Festival weekend and there are lots and lots of peoples from all over the world in Stromness, so it was decided to open the shop. See? So off he went leaving me and my MH to work out what we were going to do and after a long chat, we decided we were going to do somewhere between very little and nothing! :-))

We had lots of seats and lots of wanders outside since it was a lovely day. One of the times we were out we saw the nice farmer man next door putting his sheeps in the field in front of my house, so I will have lots of company when I go outside from now on and that makes me quite excited.

One of the times we were out, I nipped through the fence and managed to find a pile of dried grass which I buried my adorable little head in and it made my MH laugh a lot, and she tooked these pictures so that maybe you will laugh too.

Not at me, of course, but with me, eh?

A Super Saturday

It has been another super day for this little pussy cat and I have loved every second of it. The weather has been just how I like it and both my humans have been here so I have been very content.

My day started off nice and easy with me and my MH sitting on our couch having a little chat about what we were going to do and she told me she just had little bits of work to do and I could help her if I wanted----and I decided I would help. 'Cos that's what good pussy cats do, don't they?

My DH was working in our greenhouse so there was always company for me whenever I wandered round to see him. It was quite windy but my MH decided to put out her washing which meant it was pole climbing time for yours truly. I managed it most times, but one time I made a great big run and just as I was about to spring onto the pole, a big gust of wind blowed me sideways and I falled off again and that made my MH smile 'cos it looked funny and I wasn't hurt.I just missed the pole!

The old dear decided to cut our grass again so I just followed her round until she was finished and then I had a roll on all the new cut bits and it felt good so I did it lots of times. When she was finished, we had another wee seat together and then she went to the graveyard and the pictures for you today are of that and some of the views from my little island which I hope you like. The man who cuts the grass at the Kirk leaves all the wild flowers to grow and we think it looks lovely and we hope you like it too.

Friday Fun

There was just one wee disappointment today for this adorable little puss. Our message boxes were sealed with sticky tape today! No string! Can you imagine how upset I was? I look forward to a Friday lunch time every week and today was no exception, but when I looked at the boxes I was not pleased. Not pleased at all. In fact, I went and had a sulk as maybe you can see? Hee hee

It had been good fun up till then 'cos I sat with my MH as she watched Andy winning his match and she didn't need to shout at my television very much today which is a lot better for us both 'cos it hurts her voice and my lugs so I am happier when she isn't roaring.

I didn't sit all the time as I kept nipping in and out of my window to get some sunshine on my little body and I was lovely and warm again. One time when I was out, I noticed three or four of these boats passing my window and the old dear told me the navy were sending lots of boats to Orkney for some celebration later on and one like this might come to my little island to let everyone have a look round so my humans are looking forward to that.Maybe my MH will be able to get some pictures for you.

We went into the gym and then played on the grass and that's when she tooked this picture of me and it looks as though there are two Squeaks, sure it does? But there isn't. There is just me, but the old dear tooked it through the window and that is my reflections you see. See?

I am now back in my wee hoose having a rest, but it is a lovely night so I shall soon be heading out into my fields to see what I can find. This is my favourite time of the day and I love it when I can play out as long as I like 'cos the window is open for me to come home whenever I feel like it.

Brilliant!

A Day of Rest

I have been resting for most of the day. Sometimes inside my house buried under one of my blankets but sometimes I went outside and lay on my path where it was lovely and warm. I lay for a long time listening to the birdies and just resting 'cos I was still a wee bit shattered from watching the tennis yesterday and I was thinking that if I was tired just watching, what will Andy be like having played it? And, he has to do it all again tomorrow. I wonder if me and my MH will be strong enough to watch it. I don't know, but I hope so.

My DH was doing lots of work outside so I knew where to go if I needed company and whenever I heard the vacuum cleaner stopping, I would nip inside and get a cuddle from my MH, so I had everything worked out to suit myself, I think.

The sun has been shining all day and I have enjoyed being able to wander through all the long grass without being cold and wet. I watched all the little birdies and sometimes I heard them singing and chirping and that made me happy.

My MH went away out for a while in her little kangaroo and I just lay in my garden waiting for her to come home to me again and by the time she did come back, I was very warm and the old dear giggled when she picked me up for my cuddle 'cos I was a very warm little puss.

A very warm and very happy little Squeak.

Phew!

My day started off nice and quiet as usual. Breakfast as soon as we got up, then a trip outside to see what was happening. It was fine but a bit cool, so I was back in just in time for my wee drop of milk from my MH's cereal bowl and then we all had a chat before my DH went away to the Cat Shop.

My MH didn't have much work to do so I asked her to play with me and she did. I was on the top of my bed and she wrapped me up in my blanket and we played the tickle game and then hide and Squeak which is my favourite. We had to stop when the phone rang but all the time she was talking, she was stroking me under my blanket, and I just falled asleep again and stayed there for a long, long time.

When I finally did waken and went to find the old dear, she was watching Andy on my television, so I decided to join her and for a long time I wished I hadn't. Oh dear. What a match. Up and down and down then up and up again until Andy finally won but by this time my MH nearly had no voice from shouting at my television and I was watching from behind the cushions until it was finally Andy's game. Brilliant!

Then, when I was resting and trying to calm down after all that excitement, the little childrens came in for their guitar lesson, so I decided that the quietest place was in my garden and I was off out the window for a while.

I'm afraid I gave one of them a fright 'cos when I plopped back in the window, I sort of landed on J.'s knee and that made him jump but once he saw it was me, he decided he would rather play with me that his guitar and the Boss was not best pleased, so I let him go. Eventually! Hee hee

I am resting now as my house is lovely and quiet again and me and my humans are very happy that Andy won, but I don't know if we are strong enough to watch his next match!
