Two Aby's Tuesday...

We've had a nice few days with Dad home with My Mummy, he's just got a few days to work this week and then he's off again for over a week! :) Heck even Tigmut'hep is starting to cheer up as it's only one front paw and one back paw's claws until his boy comes home! ;) In fact he's been in such a good mood since yesterday morning when he found out it was just two paws worth of claws until he got his boy back that he joined in our game of "Herd of Thundering Elephants", what's even more impressive was his go at "Running as if you had a Firecracker up your Bottom", you know the run with your tail high in the air where your bottom almost overtakes your front and you kind of run sideways as well as forwards - well Isis and I are pretty much experts at this when the mood takes us, but we'd never seen Tigmut'hep attempt it. He's very good at it for a beginner, I must say! ;)
It was also a nice surprise to see that both Isis and myself had been given this lovely award by TT's family. Sorry we've not been around much, and for that matter won't be for another week or two. We do try and read our friends Blogs each day, but when you're busy snoopervising painting and decorating it's not all that easy... Plus as some of you know Isis will be meeting Yao-lin's slave this Saturday to see if his tales of suffering are really true. If they are I think the combined forces of the BritBlog Kitties should mount a rescue operation, to save him from the extreem levels of suffering he has to face on a daily basis! We do so worry about him, though seeing as Tigmut'hep is at least in spirit a meezer, we do occasionally think he might be exagerating a little! ;) Anyway Isis will perform a through investigation of the situation in just a few days time and make sure that if his slave is really as unfit for service as he says that the approperate authorities cart her off... ;)

So you see we are all very busy around here and about to do a big service for worried Kitty Bloggers everywhere! Once that's dealt with we'll be back to snoopervising the decoration of two of our favourite rooms in the house, yes the kitchen and the dinning room - those vital rooms where food is prepared and served. So paws crossed that the weather is good as our litter boxes will have to go out into the cat run during much of the time the renovations are going on and I do so hate icky wet fur and rain!

Oh well back off to My Mummy's bed for cuddle with those I love most. Having just heard of the loss of sweet baby Violette I feel a little bit of family together time is needed. Never take those you love for granted, shower them in fur every day, so they always know that they are loved deeply...

Mancat Monday...

Well we'z had a busy weekend, but Dad finished off the painting of the hall, stairs and landing and now that it's stopped smellin' all bad and yuck, I'z gotta agree that he's made it look much better than it did before! :) Then again how hard is it to make something look better than it did painted "rubber duck yellow" with rose pink carpets? ;) I'z hear that we'll be getting new carpets once the kittens have grown up and left home! Now that'll be a major snoopervisory job... ;)

Today d'boy home from school - it's something called a "half term", but iffen it's a half, why is there a whole boy at home?! I fink they'z all a bit muddled... You'z can't have a half a person home, they leak all over the place! ;) Anyway we'z all too tired to do that much other than snoopervise the laundry getting done and making sure each clean piece has enough furs still on them! :) It's an important job for sure... Other than that we'z all had a little play in the cat run, it's getting easier to out run Isis now that she's shaped like a rugby ball! ;) Though she's still remarkably determined to get her own back at us mancats, so mostly we're being very nice to her...

My Mummy has to get up *very* early tomorrow so I'z planning on dragging her to bed nice and early tonight! Dad's gotta go to Manchester on a train to attend a seminar for work, he won't be home till quite late so our kitty sitter Pete is coming over for dinner and My Mummy can pick up Dad when Pete goes home. It's been ages since we'z seen him and so we'll have to give him a really good sniffing, I'z sure his cat Jordan will have sent us a message via his trouser legs - she usually does. We send messages back to her that way too! :) Iffen Pete gets really lucky he can have Jordan furs on one leg and a mixture of ours on the other one... ;)

Finking Friday...

Well mostly I'z been finking of love and snoopervising this week... The love bit as ever is wonderful with My Marie, 'cause she's just the most purrfect ladycat in the whole world! :) When I can't be with her I gaze lovingly at her photo on the wall in My Mummy's office...

The snoopervision however has been hard work... Dad's doing well I guess, but the whole house smells of paint and he nearly bopped My Mummy on the head with the stepladder! In fact he's a ruddy danger with a stepladder... I was starting to fink we'd have to call the fire brigade to come rescue him from it at one point - now wouldn't that have caused a laugh?! A cat calling to get his Dad down from a ladder... *giggle* I fink Dad would have been teased a lot iffen I'd had to do that! ;) But I fink he's done with that bit and is now onto the really smelly paint that makes your furs stick to it... I fink I'll keep clear of the work site for a bit as I like my furs just the colour they are at present! ;) At least Dad can do this bit of the job from the ground and not halfway in the air on a ladder! :)

I fink once it's all painted that I'll have to snoopervise Dad putting in a new lounge door, the new doors have windows in them and are made of oak that smells nice and is sure to make a great scratching post iffen My Mummy ever forgets to keep us well supplied with scratch mats and posts! ;) Though I have a personal preference for scratching at the carpeting... :)

Now I fink I'll go see what my sister Isis is up to, she's been all soppy since she gotted home from her date with Napoleon last night... She's been sitting in front of the mirror gazing at herself and her new diamonds! I fink she may be getting a little vain as well as rugby ball shaped! ;)

Mancat Monday...

Well it's been an interesting weekend here, I did lots of snoopervising as Dad put up a new door in the dinning room, he's got another one to put up in the living room too this week, so I will have a very busy week of snoopervising in deed! Then Dad's taking the end of the week off to paint the hall, stairs and landing area... My Mummy picked some lovely paint the colour of vanilla ice cream or creamy car milk for it, with we all think it a lot better than the "rubber duck yellow" we've had to live with up to now! "Rubber duck yellow" just doesn't look good against my furs after all - especially with the pink carpet My Mummy and Dad have yet to replace there as well... I hear the new carpet will probably wait until Isis has had the kittens and they are old enough to go to their new homes! At which point I can snoopervise the laying of some nice new carpet, which will blend far better with my furs... :)

So for now I'z making sure that all the food is ready for our kitty condo warming party tomorrow! Isis is taste testing it all to make sure of quality (if not quantity after all her testing), Tigmut'hep has also offered his help in the testing department... ;) Hopefully I can fend them off most of the food, so that there is enough here for all of you tomorrow! ;) See you then! :)

Finking Friday!

Well it's Finking Friday again and this week I've mostly been finking at Isis belly is growing like a mad thing! ;) My Mummy says I'm not to make any naughty comments about my 'sis soon not being able to see her own paws, but the temptation's there never the less! ;) I fink the cutest bit is she's started to sleep on her back at times now, but she gets up and moves when I start to clean her belly - I fink she fears I'll loose my self control and start blowing raspberries on it! :)

I've also been finking about all the fun we can have at the condo warming party next Tuesday, well that and what we can eat! ;) There's a good stash of fresh catnip and even more of the really good dried stuff... :) Well I don't fink a girlycat in Isis condition can't be using it, so rather than letting it go to waste... Yer, well I fink it's a good excuse and I'm sticking to it! :P

I fink My Mummy will be cooking some turkey terrine for us all and maybe some kitty paella too! :) So I don't fink anyone will leave here hungry! ;)

Oh and the really good thing is I don't fink it matters too much iffen kitties make a mess of the hall, stairs and landing as Dad's booked off a few days at the end of next week to stay home and decorate it! :) I fink this means I get to snoopervise, which is always lots of fun!!! :)

Now I fink it's time to start bugging My Mummy for a nice spot of lunch! ;)

ManCat Monday...

Well the day started off with a bit of a bang... The boy (while attempting to be helpful) managed to break one of My Mummy's fancy metal curtain tiebacks in the lounge! :( This just added to My Mummy's already dreadful morning in which Dad had hogged the bathroom, the boy had over slept and My Mummy came down to breakfast late to find a sink full of dishes Dad said he's wash last night... Anyway after My Mummy'd fed us breakfast and managed to get herself a large mug of that tea stuff she so loves in the morning, we all got together and decided we'd better help improve her day! :)

So after My Mummy'd run the boy to school, Dad to work ('cause his work car is in the shop) and gone to a shop that sells those fancy metal curtain tiebacks and found some that would replace the now broken set, we pounced into action! Oh yes, Tigmut'hep and I can cooperate when the well being of My Mummy is at stake... :) We set about snoopervising her removal of the broken tiebacks and replacing them with the new ones! Never before had My Mummy seen us work so well together making sure every aspect of the job was fully snoopervised! Heck, we even decided it was about time Isis learnt about snoopervision... ;) After all we wouldn't want her doing it all wrong!

First of all we ran out into the cat run and snoopervised My Mummy hunting down the drill, screwdriver etc. We called her instructions at the top of our voices, until at last she found the various places where Dad had stashed the tools... Then we all raced into the lounge to make sure My Mummy did the job right! Tigmut'hep took charge of snoopervising the removal of the old tiebacks, Isis decided she better start with something small and snoopervised the screws My Mummy had to remove. She even chased them under the edge of the sofa to stop them escaping while My Mummy broke the new tiebacks out of their packaging! ;) I being the smartest cat by far decided it was my duty to snoopervise the drill and screwdriver, though My Mummy got herself all excited when I sat on them to save them from moving from where she'd put them down! Honestly sometimes My Mummy does get a bit hysterical over the silliest things... ;)

But in the end with lots of cooperative snoopervision from us all My Mummy triumphed and she yet again has curtains that tie back put of the way during the daytime! Purrsonally I'z very proud of our efforts, I'm not sure My Mummy could have coped with such a big job without us... I'm therefore feeling very ManCatly and macho right now! :) I'z proud of my little 'sis too, cause she did a magnificent job of snoopervising, especially considering it was her first attempt! Tigmut'hep did well too and ignored his baser instincts for once and did a great job of snoopervision rather than "bopping" me and Isis on the head - as My Mummy says "Wonders Never Cease!" ;)

Now I think it's time for a well earned nap... :)
