It's My Party and I'll Take A Cracker If I Want To

'D&D' had a party with the people they work with. It was so much fun. I enjoy meeting and chatting with everyone.

They had LOTS of food there. Yummy! Esp. the crackers! Man did I love them. But the only problem was - I couldn't get any dip for the cracker (or cheese spread). Very annoying I tell you.

I just LOVE cheese - and there was a big cheese ball there. I managed to snag a cracker, but how in the world am I suppose to stick that cracker into that cheese ball! And how in the world am I suppose to pick up a 'cheese spreader', and get some cheese outta that cheese ball, and spread it on the cracker.

And do you think anyone offered to help me? Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
They were too busy chatting and visiting.
Well!
At least I got a cracker.

PS: Don't tell anyone, but I touched their food when they were not looking!

That's Me!

There I am. Caught in the act! I was minding my own business, snoozing upon 'D&D' bumper pool table (they covered it of course ... can't have cat hair on it), when 'D' decided to take this picture. How annoying. Can't a kitty catch a cat nap in peace?

Well, IF only I knew how to use their digital camera! Boy could I get some good pictures. I would like to show you exactly how 'D' looks in the morning when he awakes! Talk about bed head and squinty eyes!

You would think if I can learn how to type on a keyboard, log on to the internet, and type this blog - I could surely learn how to operate a digital camera!

But I just cannot seem to hold the camera steady, look through the view finder, and press the button to take the picture.

Mmmmm, maybe I should draw a picture! That's it. I'll have to work on that and post the picture here.

The Comfort Of Throw Pillows

Well you caught me. One of my favorite places to nap ... atop the orange and green throw pillows. They are so soft and comfy! I can nap upon them for hours. And I think the contrast of those colorful pillows against my beautiful white fur is just a vision!

The only draw back is this. The orange and green 'threads' come off the pillows and get tangled within my fur. So it sort of looks like I am going for the punk look! But that is well worth the price! Trading a little bit of orange and green strings on my fur - for the comfy of the pillows doesn't bother me at all.

I Pose Therefore I Am

I have to admit, I do like this picture of myself that 'D' took back in July. 'D' caught me napping on the kitchen floor, woke me and then snapped this picture. As you can see, I do not suffer from the frightful human disease called 'Bed-Head'. (But 'D' sure does!)

I do have to say this about the months of November thru March. They are colder than the remaining months. Which is okay for this feline - I'm an inside house so I am always toasty!
But, what felines hate (especially this handsome one) is ...... (drum roll please)......................
STATIC ELECTRICITY!

I don't know how I get that darn stuff in my fur - but I do. So whenever 'D&D' touch me, or pets me - I hear this little 'snap' and I feel that 'zzzzzz' of a shock. At first, I thought that I had done something wrong - until I realized that 'D' feels the shock as well. Sometime I will just touch 'D' with my nose to smell him and 'ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ' the shock will happen.

I have heard the 'Ds' talking about this static electricity - especially when they are doing the laundry. They throw this white sheets into the dryer - and that prevents this static electricity shocking.

The question is, how do I pull one of those fabric sheets out of the box, and rub it all over myself. And do I want to! Do I want to smell like lavender, or flowers, or the outside breeze? Those sheets sort of ummmmm stink (if you want my opinion).

So, until I figure out how to de-static myself. I guess I'll go through the winter months shocking humans (and myself). I can think of better ways to 'shock' humans than static electricity - but that is another blog.

Sniff sniff - do I smell another tree of toys?

Well, 'D' was poking around in one of the rooms of the house, and I saw him open a box and inside were those shinny things that he puts on what he calls a Christmas Tree.

I remember those tree. All green with lights, and covered with all kinds of kitty toys for me to play with.

I can hardly wait until this tree is set up!

Of course I only play with the tree toys when 'D&D' are at work.

Please don't tell them.

Bumble Bees

Here is another picture 'D' took in his flower garden. I don't know what the flower is (D calls it Sedum), but I do know what bees are. These bees look a little frightening. Bumble Bees is what 'D' calls them. Bumble. What a word. What does it mean? Bumble. If you say it enough times, it sounds silly, doesn't it? I do know what a bum is. I do know what a bee is. But I don't know what a bumble is. Well, I guess a bumbling idiot, is someone who messes things up. But these bees do not look like they would mess anything up - maybe mess up a human if the bee stung one.

I think humans have too many words. The spelling of some human words are the same, but are pronounced different. And then the spelling of some human words are different, but are pronounced the same. It's so confusing to me.

I'm glad I'm a cat. We have one word. MEOW!

Pink

This is another picture 'D' took at the zoo. Some sort of lizard I think. Pink and black. A Gila Monster is what 'D' called this lizard. What a name!!! Not the Gila part, but the monster part. I think the lizard looks rather dashing - not at all like a monster.

I bet a human named this lizard a Gila Monster!

How can anything with pink, be a monster? Just look at me. I have pink ears, nose, paws ..... and I look marvelous.

And are some humans pink? Hmmmm I think there is a point that I am trying to make .... and I think you may have figured it out.

Cheers!

Candy Corn Part Two

What a day! Windy and cold. And somewhat rainy (well it was yesterday). Sort of boring at home alone all day. I napped .... played with a few toys ..... looked out the window. Nothing out of the ordinary.

Then 'D&D' came home from work .... with a package that the mail man delivered. 'D' said something like 'it's from Mary Ann.'

'D' must have known that I was staring at him, questioning who is Mary Ann. He looked at me and said "Aunt Mary Ann send some Halloween treats!"

Well, he opened the package and pulled out not one, but two bags of Halloween candy! And guess what guys ......... CANDY CORN!!!!!!!

OHHHH THANK YOU AUNT MARY ANN!

Ohhhhh 'D' will really go into a Candy Corn Coma after eating all of that! And I'll have a nice, comfy lap to sleep on!

So now I'm just patiently tapping my paw ....... waiting for 'D' to open a bag and begin his feast!

Candy Corn + 'D' = a nice nap nest!

Trick Or Treat

It's trick or treat time! Halloween. AND CANDY CORN! I do enjoy candy corn. It's candy, but not corn. I do not like corn. It's yellow and sticks to my teeth. But Candy Corn ------ yumo! It's sweet and crunchy! The crunch is sort of like dry kitty food, but maybe a bit more soft.

Don't know what is in Candy Corn, but after I eat a piece I find myself running in and out of each room, and up and down the stairs. 'D' calls me a speed demon. It's sort of funny to think about it. I'll have one little piece of Candy Corn, and I'm running around like a madcat, so full of energy. Now 'D', he can eat almost the whole bag, and what does he do? Sit in his easy chair and watch the idiot box. I don't know why it doesn't have the same effect on him. Maybe it's because he outweighs me by about 180 pounds. Or maybe because he drinks a lot of coffee; or maybe it's because he smokes, or maybe it's because he's tired. I think it's because he is in a sugar coma. Too much of a good thing. Besides, I like it when he is in that Candy Corn Coma .... I can sit and sleep on his lap for a long, long time. Nice and comfy!

So please, send all your Candy Corn to me. I'll make sure 'D' gets plenty to eat.

I think i can i think i can.

First of all, I would like to wave my paw at 'WW' for sending this picture to 'D'.

'D' showed it to me, and I thought it was puuurrrfect for my blog.

I feel like this the kitty in the picture some days. I believe you humans have felt this way too. Treading the water of life. With all that is going on in the country (recession (or depression ... depends on whom you talk to), the election, food prices, health care, etc. etc.) I do believe that most of you feel this way.

I wish I had some words of wisdom for you, but alas I do not.

Because .......

Sometimes a wet cat is just a wet cat.

Sleep Little Kitty

Yes, there I am ..... sleeping as usual. It was a beautiful day. Almost 80. I enjoyed looking out the window, and feeling the breeze upon my face. I know that the cold months are coming, D&D broke out the jackets last week.

You may be wondering why I am sleeping upon a newspaper. Well - believe it or not, after 'D&D' read it, I decided to skim through the news. Don't know about the other kitties out there, but I am tired of reading about the presidential canidates. Sure, both canidates feel they are both qualified for the job. And yadda yadda yadda.

Because in the feline world, we do not have elections - so I find this 'running for president' thing a wee bit boring. A lot of finger pointing, name calling and mud slinging.

I really don't know who I would vote for, if I could vote.

Am I a Demokat? Or a Republicat? Or maybe a Independacat.

I think I need to ponder this for a bit longer. Hmmmm kitty treats help me think.

Now if I can only get 'D or D' to follow me downstairs to where the treats are located - I would be a happy kitty with a snack in my belly.

I'm back

Have been on vacation. Well .......... D&D have been. So I decided to take on too. So, tomorrow it will be back to the daily grind of blogging. See you then.

Fresh As A Daisy

Another picture from 'D's garden.

That's how I feel today. Fresh as a daisy. Time for a poem.

Daisy ----- By Keldan

I like the daisy, it is white.

I am white.

We are white.

The daisy and I are One.

-The End

Oh The Humanity (or Catmanity)!

I'm not really a political feline ...... but c'mon guys!

Does anyone know how much money is spent, by-for-on canidates, for an election??????
I do believe it is an obscenely amount of $$$$$.

Does one realize how much that money would come in handy for the kitties (and kiddies)???
Ohhhhhh don't get me started!!!!! Kitties and kiddies are only the tip of the iceberg!

I will never under humans! I am amazed that most of the human population isn't on the edge right now!

Okay okay okay. I've gotten off my soupbox (for the time being).

Let's get on with my kitty blog.

. Today .... I ate a bug.

The End.

Tired Today

Very short blog here, so I'll write a poem.

Tired ---- By KK Keldan

I nap I wake
I want to eat a cake.
I wake I nap
I want to find a lap.
I nap I eat
Now I feel beat.
I nap I sleep
My slumber is deep.

- the end

Hole In The Sky

'D' took this picture the other day. I call it 'Hole In The Sky'. Clouds are so interesting. 'D' says that you can see images in the clouds.

So one day, while laying in the window sill, I looked up and stared at the clouds.

Very interesting.

All the clouds looked like mice to me.

Nothing worse, that a cat stuck in a house looking out the window at a sky full of mice.

It's madness I tell you!

The Night The Lights Went Out ......

Finally - the lights are back on! We've had no power for 3 days!!!!!!

Actually, that didn't bother me at all because I spend most of my day napping. But 'D&D' sure did not like it! They couldn't cook food (lucky me my food comes out of a pouch). They couldn't watch TV or do anything that required electricity. I was a tad bit annoyed because I couldn't do my blog - but other than that - I had no problem with it.

I had to admit 'D' was a bit grouchy, maybe because 'D' didn't have his coffee/tea for a few days.

I think humans need to learn from us felines. We use our wits and imagination to entertain ourselves. We do no rely on TV, or the internet, or even electricity!

PS I am glad the TV is back on. I love it for the background noise! Helps me nap.

Oh No! Not Another Pizza Picture!

Okay guys - I'll have you know, that posting this picture was not my idea! I opposed it. A picture of me atop a pizza box has already been posted to my blog - but 'D' decided that I needed to post the other picture.

Do I have a silly look on my face or what! Anyone who has read my previous posts, know that I laid (innocently I might add) atop one of the pizza boxes because A) it was warm ... B) the pizzas smelled wonderful ... and C) I was hungry.

As you can see from this picture I am a little bit ummmmmmm excited (otherwise known as my tummy demanding some pizza). I know my tail looks a little blurred - but I was swishing it around and around showing my intense pleasure of the pizza that was about to come.

And yes, I did receive a nibble of the pizza. And it was good. And I relished every morsel!

And contrary to what 'D' thinks, pizza does not taste better the next day. In fact, I thought it tasted rather cold, stiff, ungiving, and just plain yucky! I could't believe how 'D' eats day old pizza, smacking his lips, getting that red sauce over his face!

Now hard cat food on the other hand, taste wonderful day after day, no matter how long it has been out in the bowl. And of course I have never seen 'D' eat even a morsel of my hard dry cat food. What's with that? If I can taste 'D's food, surely he can taste mine! It's only fair. Maybe 'D' is afraid that he would like it - and want it all for himself.

I wish I could operate a digital camera. I would LOVE to get a picture of 'D' lying on his back, on the sofa, watching TV, and eating a bowl of chocolate ice cream. See how he would like if I posted THAT on my blog for all the world to see.

Now I am lost - I cannot remember what I really wanted to blog about. All this talk of pizzas has gotten me a little bit hungry.

Guess I'll head downstairs to the TV room, and hopefully 'D' has left a doughnut, or a snack on the side table for me to nibble on.

Oh Brother!

Well.

Who am I suppose to complain to?

Really!

I really do not understand why Hollywood does not use the correct actor(s) in movies.

Having a woman play a cat!

I'm sure there are plenty of female felines that are unemployed in Hollywood that would have loved to play the part of Catwoman.

Well, I guess it would be a bit difficult for a human to act opposite an actual kitty cat ... and make the audience believe it.

But come on ! Who better to play a catwoman - than a cat.

I See Spots

Another one of 'D's zoo pictures. 'D' calls him a Leopard. I know that the Leopard and I are related; both of us coming from the cat family. He is pretty. I wonder why only wild cats (big game cats) are the only ones who have spots like this. I've not see a housecat with spots such as these.

I think it would be cool if I had spots like these. I could sit on a Leopard fabric colored sofa and no one would ever see me. That would be fun. I could spy and evesdrop on 'D', but it really wouldn't be spying or evesdropping because I would be in plain view! How fun would that be!

Of course I probably would be the brunt of idiotic jokes .... like 'hey Keldan - you have a spot on your fur' ... or 'D' would make a cross on me and say ' X marks the spot.'

That would be old really fast. So I think I would rather stay the pure white that I am.
