–Thank you Chuck–

BTW,eery as it is, My man /friend’s name is Chuck also. And,although we never married, we’ve been together for over 22yrs.

Don’t recall the last time he wished me a good day.

It was refreshing hearing it come from a man in our little community here.

Hugs from my small town of fuzzbutts & myself to you & your KittyKrew.

Me, too. Sorry you’re having a crappy day, Susie. Hopefully tomorrow will be better. We’re all here for you!
Hugs.

–Hugs & Thanks to miu & Great Dane–

Ppearson are you Ok??
*waves coffee under nos and offers a cookie*

Hello ppearson,
How sweet of you to help Vicki cook! You are so thoughtful!
HUGS

ok, ok I MEANT to say under nose, I really don’t know how to wave coffee under a nos…. or what the heck a nos is…

How about scrambled eggs with cheese, hash browns, orange juice, and Bloody Marias?

Poser kitty! Calendar pic. Sooooo cute! Love the pink nose and mouth. I have a nice cup of French Roast this am since they do not have the Columbian coffee that I normally like to have, and a quiche muffin for breakfast. Chocolate cookie on the side. Hee hee! Happy Hump Day. I like a four day work week as long as I get paid my 40 hours.

Pipa’s mum. I am perfectly ok thanks to the COA! But that wont stop me from having the coffee and cookie anyway! Vicki, pass me some of those hashbrowns. mmmmmm nice and crunchy just the way I like them!

Hashbrowns? Where? Where?

Way to go Huddy. Sounds like a kitty who knows what he wants.

Ashe does that, she tried to grab a piece of pizza the other day. She’s the only one of the 5 that does that.

A cat dragging a pizza slice around would be a funny thing to see!!

Sebastian and Huddy will both take food off your plate if you’re not careful. Sebastian loooooves pizza. Maverick doesn’t even care. If it doesn’t come out of the bag of Purina One he’s totally disinterested.

A tiny cat with a slice of pizza as big as her.

My cats try to steal food from me, too, but I’m usually on my guard and don’t let them. The one time I wasn’t on my guard, I was eating yogurt, turned my head for a minute, and when I turned back, my cat was making a meal out of my breakfast!

When my Romeo was 6 months old (he came from the street and only weighed 4 lbs then) he nabbed a piece of pizza from the pizza box on the coffee table. I grabbed the other end and he just dug his little claws in the carpet and we had a real tug of war for a minute. He was growling continuously. I won, though. I’ll share but I don’t want them taking it from my plate. Another time, my daughter put gravy on her finger and was going to let him lick it off. Apparently he thought her finger WAS the food and clamped down. She jerked back and he growled and wouldn’t let go. He thought she was taking his food. I had to pry his jaws loose from her finger.

My babies, Ginger and Shadow, both love chicken. Shadow, however, will try just about anything if you give him a chance; he once nabbed a piece of black olive that came off my pizza and, to my surprise, ate it. Also, both ahve to be watched when we set out thanksgiving dinner as they will gravitate to the smell of turkey. I try not to encourage begging, but sometimes those faces are too cute for me to resist.

Emma will beg for green olives. She doesn’t want to eat them. She will give them a lick or two and then proceed to play with them until she bats them under the couch or chair. I have to go on olive patrol after she has her fun.

I just had a tuna sandwich. Bob slept on the other side of my desk in his chair and couldn’t have cared less!
Boss gave him some cut up chicken at lunchtime yesterday - not interested until about five o’clock when he decided he was hungry. I really wonder how he’s managing to get fat eating only dry food.

When Huddy and his brother Gizmo were babies, my niece had to hide the bread from them once they started to climb. They’d get to the cabinet, knock the whole loaf down and drag it all over the house. I don’t think they like bread, I think they liked the noise the wrapper made. She even took a picture of them running through the house dragging this loaf of bread that was bigger than they were. I wish I could find it - I’d scan it and put it on Huddy’s Catster page.
I still have to put the bread up first thing from the grocery store.

No matter what I eat, Huddy wants it. And 9 times out of 9, if I give it to him (after I chew it first a couple of times) he’ll eat it. Sebastian only wants meat. He likes chicken, pepperoni, pork chops, steak, hamburger, bacon, sausage, ham - you name it, if it’s meat he’ll eat it.

NONE of them care anything about tuna or any other kinda fish.

The man friend said in awe one night, “It’s almost like you gave BIRTH to them.” lol

Just this morning I was accousted for my spagetti………Erwin has decided that sketti is the BEST snack and the noodles are fun…………ackkk

Huddy loves meat sauce. The last time I made it I gave him some in a bowl (just a teaspoon full) had to pick him up after he was finished and “Dawn” his mouth and front paws - both were orange!!!!! That big silly actually put his feet in the bowl!

Yep, man friend is right - Sebastian sounds just like his mama!
….and I’m slightly astounded to hear you keep tuna and bread in the house, HM! In my mind I was picturing a pantry/fridge/freezer full of steaks and bacon!

The bread and tuna is for the man friend, sweetie.

I have two food tasters, my girl only eats kibbles and gourmet wet food (a Payday Specialty ).

Aaaah, now I feel better, HM. I guess man friend has to eat, too….

Then you must simply carry him around. lol

Hi HM! Sylvester says hi too…even though he is more than likely asleep under the bed at home. Oh the life of a cat…to be able to sleep anytime you feel like it.

They don’t know how good they have it, do they?

Maybe they don’t want to be spit on?

I wanna live across the street from Travis Tritt!! But, alas the financial situation will not allow a home purchase.

I lived down the road from a guy in Colorado that raised Llamas..they are pretty cool critters.

Jean Stratton-Porter is an awesome author… all of her books are very adventurous. One of my favorite books of all time was by her… My Side of the Mountain… about a kid that runs off and lives by himself in the Adirondacks.

She’s one of my favorite authors too. I really really love the Limberlost books, have visited her home in Indiana, and > got to visit what was left of the Limberlost about 25 years ago. I’m assuming some is still left, but don’t know.
