Snow Day

I relaxed all day with my person. We sat in my favorite chair and looked out the window. I also lounged on the warm radiator. I may have taken a little nap.

Birds

I was busy over the holidays. I climbed on the counters and ate some egg salad, went on the stove and ate turkey, and somehow got my foot stuck in the tea kettle for a second. When I wasn't all busy in the kitchen, I was watching these birds. I prefer turkey though.

Trick and a lot of Treats

I got a lot of treats after this one.

Excursion

When I was a street cat, I was outside all the time. When I met my person, she said I wasn't allowed to go outside, which makes me mad. Sometimes I sneak out though. Last week, she said I could go in the yard for a visit. I jumped off the deck right away and looked around in the shrubs. Then I went all around the yard. I wasn't afraid at all. My person said I need more supervision and that next time I go out I I have to use my special harness. We'll see about that.

Treat time

One good thing about the little dog is that he likes treats as much as I do. We team up to convince our people to give us treats and snacks from the refrigerator.

At the table

I eat my breakfast and dinner and most of my snacks on the table because of that little dog. Sometimes I eat like a person. My person said maybe I should have a booster seat.

I can't believe it

One day my people brought this dog home. He has been here for almost three weeks. He seems to be staying. He is my size, but I have better proportions. He has white and caramel fur, but mine is more plush. He always wants to be near my people, which I don't like. Sometimes he wants to be near me, which I really don't like. At least he's not a cat.

Excellence in Shedding

My rabbity soft coat is getting its sleek summer look. My person said that my fur is blowing around the house like tumbleweeds. She brushes me several times a day with my slicker brush. A lot of fur goes in the brush. Even more flies in the air. Here I am with some fur. My person said maybe we could save it and make a fall sweater.

9 to 5

My people have been busy lately moving things around in boxes, organizing things and setting up our new office. Here I am on the boxes.

 I have my own office chair so I can help my person work.

My Close-up

Here is what I look like super-close and sleepy. My person squeezed me and said "MILO! You are so, so rabbity soft!" It's true. I really am.

Ball of Cat

I was sleeping today on this pillow. I slept in a ball for 4.5 hours. My person timed me. She wondered if I was sick but I wasn't. I was just getting some of my usual 20 hours of shut-eye.

Even when she took my picture I didn't open my eyes.

Then I got all fired up and climbed up the window screens and bit my person. I was energetic after my nap.

The Computer

I took a little trip this weekend with my person. We visited the nice man and the nice lady and Abby the dog. I wanted the nice man to pet me instead of using the computer. I scratched him and waved my paws at him to let him know. He petted me. I like to play String under the computer desk.

 

Easter with my Peeps

Happy Easter. My person said that later I will wear my fish tie and eat a special meal.

Spring break

My people are home this week and have been enjoying my company immensely.

My person got some new shelves, which I approve of.

I have been sitting on her when she works, reads, eats or tries to get anything done.

Right now, I am watching basketball. My person said I should cheer for the Jaguars because they are very large and powerful cats. They sound similar to me.

Special delivery

My person got a package yesterday. It is a box that has lots of fluffy paper inside. I rustle in it and get it just right for my naps. My person says the pattern inside complements my white and caramely fur and my hazel eyes. I agree.

Update: I got another delivery. My person bought me a special pouch of catnip. She told me that it is very potent. She sprinkled some on the rug. I flopped down on it and got the nip all through my fur. Then I raked the pouch and rubbed it on my head. She said my pupils were very dilated. I was all fired up.

Busy day

So far, I gobbled up my breakfast, howled in the basement, climbed on the tool table in the basement, played Tennis Ball, String, and Catnip Pillow, scratched my person, got my nails trimmed, howled out the window, and finally settled on a kitchen chair.

My bed and my blanket are underneath the chair. 

Just like a billy goat

My person is doing some projects. She got out the ladder. I love the ladder. Sometimes I go in the basement and climb the ladder. My person usually rushes down and says "Milo! What is all that clattering?" Then I look down at her from the top rung.

Yesterday she brought the ladder upstairs. First it was in the hallway. I climbed it, and I howled when I got to the top. Then it was near the closet. I climbed it again. This time, the ladder helped me go to a high shelf I had never been on before. I liked it a lot. My person said she will keep the ladder out for me to use.

 

Resolute

My person says that I should make a 2013 Resolution to not poop in our big plant. Here I am doing it, caught on camera.

I don't see the problem. Plus, I like to keep things interesting by changing up my routine sometimes. Maybe I will even learn a new skill in 2013.
