Happy Birthday Grete!

 

Hi there!  It's my birthday today!  I'm 8 years young! 

 

Mom and dad say I'm 8 going on 6 months.   I have no idea what they mean.

 

So I bet you are wondering what I got for my special day.   On birthday eve, I got a bath!  I'm pretty good about the whole process...and mom and dad do a good job.  But wow, when I'm done I'm a happy girl!   Whee!

 

 

And then....oh yeah...squeaky balls!!

Monday with Grete

 

I for one am glad Superbowl Sunday is over and out.

 

I have no clue why humans will sit there and watch someone else play with a ball.  What's the fun in that?    I did get some ball play time before kick off...but after that me and my ball were on our own.

 

Good thing this only happens once a year.

 

Working Wednesday

 

Now...remember Grete...you  need to keep everyone in line.  I've given specific instructions on how to manage the garden...and as a...expert cat herder, you are the purrfect one for the job.

 

Ginger...Figaro...you need to work with dad to make sure the fallen branches get picked up.

 

 

Sniffing them does not help!

Ohhh how I loved the inflatable bed.  Do you know how awesome it was...the perfect size for a dog?   Not that I mind sharing....

 

Room enough for my binky and 3 of my best friends.  Figaro could join us but he passed out on a chair with a fuzzy blankie.

It's Christmas Tree hunting time again!  I don't understand why we only do this once a year.  It's SO MUCH FUN!

I sniff the ground and check out everything.   When there are so many trees to choose from, it's important to not get distracted.  I must stay focused on my mission to find the perfect tree!

 

I found it!

 

You'll have to wait to see it inside the house.

Mitten Monday

 

*waving paws*

 

I'm sorry I've not been good about posting.  It's not really my fault.  There is only so much a cat can control.

 

I handle the part about being cute.  Doing interesting things.

 

If mom is slacking with the camera or uploading...all my furriends suffer.

 

Not that we've been suffering.  It's been freezing cold here.  So of course we do what anyone else would do in that situation.  Hang out by the fireplace with family!

 

Pay no attention to the toys scattered everywhere.  As far as Santa is concerned we have NOTHING!

Woofie Wednesday

 

Being a woofie has it's advantages.  When mom and dad do fun stuff outside, I get to go!

 

I wag my tail at my kitties and say see ya later gaters!  Get it?  They're kitties and I call them gaters...I crack myself up!

 

My mom was having fun racing boats this past weekend so dad and I watched from shore.  It was awesome!

 

When I got home I told the kitties all about it.

Society of Feline Gardeners- Thursday in the Garden with Jonesie

::Meowwww::

 

It's been HOT this week!  Even so, you can tell fall is coming soon.  The days are getting shorter and I have to come inside the house WAY earlier.

 

Sigh.

 

For a garden cat that means I have to get all my work done in less time.

 

 

I had to meow at my mom to let her know that we had a mini 2nd crop of raspberries.  My dad and I discovered them together.

 

 

We put them in a bowl.

 

They were a nice surprise so late in the season.  Of course it made me purrrr. 

 

One of our artichokes didn't get picked and so it flowered!  I think it's pretty.  Mom and dad got enough of them to eat so we'll just admire this one.

 

I promised you a photo of my new furriend and neighbor Mr. Blue.  Mom didn't get close, but was able to take this picture through the fence while Mr. Blue rested on his deck.

 

Grete and I still find plenty of time to play together.

 

With summer's end coming soon, a girl has got to appreciate the last beautiful and warm gardening days.

Society of Feline Gardeners- Thursday in the Garden with Jonesie and Grete

 

::Meowwww::

 

I'm sorry my mom and I were slacking last week.  I think that was the first Thursday in the Garden post that I've missed in like...forever!

 

I was doing a bit of this....

 

After all of my hard work, a girl has earned her naps, right?

 

We have tomatoes ripening all the time now. 

 

We also have flowers blooming for a wee bit longer. 

 

As you know, my Grete woofie is a hero for assisting mom and dad in rescuing our new furriend Layla.   That means she gets to be in all the posts this week.  That's alright by me.  My Grete is my bestie.  We love each other and enjoy our garden time.

 

It may look like Grete is blowing a raspberry but I know that she is blowing me kissies!
