My big shoe

It was a long week. Mom only came by to feed us and pet us.( she was working)

I haven’t practiced my tricks, (my live appearance is next week, I better start.)

Rumpy had a Micropoetry challenge a few days ago,

http://rumpydog.wordpress.com/2011/10/07/micropoetry-challenge/

Micropoetry consists of 140 characters or less.

 As I was documenting my week, it started turning into a poem with pictures.

So I tried to make it into a Micropoem, called MY BIG SHOE.

I got a big shoe,

 it was hard to chew

 I had fun,

 nap’d when done.

D+toys

 =noise.

 I stole the toy, I was mad  Gave it back, he was sad.

We read to poem 100 times, I think it’s a Micropoem.

I was honored with an Award from Pedro. http://pedrothecat.com/author/marucankissmyfurry/

Thank You Pedro. I will pass it on next week.

I have to practise my tricks now.

Desperately need your help

UK citizens we need your help!!!

I found out about Lennox today and I am trying to do everything I can to help. I am not a UK citizen and was not able to sign to petition to help this dog or change the stupid law.

Please please if you are a Uk citizen sign the petition, and pass it on, they only have about 400 signatures so far. (In the paragraph “how you can help” is the link to sign, it will take you just a minute to help.)

 I am begging all my friends and subscribers in the UK!!!!

Thank You!!!

Its good to be a ME

This week I worked on my Livestrong campaign for The Cat’s Meow blog,

who I met on Cat Blogosphere. http://www.blog.catblogosphere.com/

 (Fin helped)

I went pumpkin picking.

 Got some corn.

I didn’t care for it. Darnell and Fin loved it!

D got mad when mom took it away.

He took his anger out on the big box.

(Fin helped)

My big box was destroyed.

Mom gave me a new box.

That only I could fit into.

(and my toy)

I played with my speed circuit.

Hung around the massage center.

Went to the park.

Played with the little humans toys.

I snooped on the new neighbors across the street.

I practiced some of my choreography for the Day Care Center show,

untill D interrupted.

I took my prop,

and went to play in my busted up big box.

The Cat Chanel picked me as one of the coolest cats.

http://www.catchannel.com/blog/ViewBio.aspx?apid=217657&PetName=jimmie+chew I registered to compete to win money for a shelter of my choice at Dog Time Media.

I picked out my Christmas gifts.

 We finally got our info from The Delta Society, I don’t think we will be joining, they want US to pay THEM for Me to volunteer. (?)

I sent this photo to the not a crazy cat lady lady, http://notacrazycatlady.com/2011/09/28/its-a-contest-sort-of/  she is having sort of a contest. (hopefully she will draw me again) I love her drawings.

It was a good week.

 

How I learned to walk on a leash

First I wore the harness around the house for about 15 min. 2, 3 times a day, for 2 days.

The first time I went out side, I just laid on the ground.

 It took me a few days to get comfortable with the outside sounds and smells.

After a few days of just lying around, mom pulled a string in front of me to motivate me to move.

It worked.

I thought I was hunting.

Then I started walking against walls only.

(I think I felt safer)

After a few days of following the string, I was brave enough to start sniffing around,

and digging.

Going out when it got dark was the best part.

I got to do cat things .

After about a week,

 I was walking mom.

I always got treats or kitten milk when I came back home for being a smart kitty.

 Darnell always cleaned me for some reason.(still does)

After a good long walk, I always took a good long nap.

Mom thought about getting a book to help her teach me, but turned out she didn’t need to.

Fin and Darnell are next!

my weekend

This weekend we got a new box.

A big box.

We loved our big box.

My training was interrupted (as usual)

(Fin has turned into quite a model)

I needed a break.

I had to get out for a walk.

 I ran into Bentley on my walk (the unruly dog from the neighborhood, his dad needs to train him)

So I went for a ride.

We stopped over at grandmas, (she said I was too skinny)

I met a loud little dog at the farmers market.

Back at the house,

I played with my brothers.

Darnell was back to normal this weekend, (I think he missed mom)

I checked out what the humans were eating,

(not for me)

 I practiced my choreography for the day care center show.

Fin thought he was sneaky,

but I saw him peeking.

He got treats just for being cute.

I won the Versatile Blogger Award! (I will accept and pass it on this week)

My blog will be featured on Cat Blogosphere tomorrow

Monday Sept 26th.

 It was a good cat weekend!!

A boring week

 Mom has been a little busy with her human stuff this week, I’ve been busy doing my cat stuff. She did come by a few times just to play with us, but I have not studied this week at all. I hope I don’t forget everything I’ve learned. We will get back to our training this weekend.

The other day Fin and I saw a reflection from moms mirror,

We had so much fun chasing it,

that mom thought the reflection from a disco ball would be more fun for us to chase.

Nope, it was just more confusing, Fin gave up.

Darnell can amuse himself.

Fin just wants treats.

I need constant brain stimulation. Mom created a little monster.

She did take me for a ride this week.

And a walk.

The little human came by to play with me.

(I was a natural)

 I am no longer just an average cat.

I still enjoy my kitten milk every night,

with Fin behind me,

waiting to finish it, every time.

I am too smart to just lay around, get fat, and do nothing. That’s not an option for me. I cant wait to get back to my training.

teenage weekend

 I was very defiant this weekend.

I wanted my get my treats,

without doing my tricks.

Mom was a pushover, I got my treats without doing my tricks.

All I wanted to do was bite and chew.

Darnell decided my new toy was his new bed.

 Mom called the pet store,

 to see if they had any more attachments for the toy.

So we could both fit.

(Honestly, we had more fun with the box).

Mom also got us a ball that dispenses treats when you push it around. 

We could not get it away from Fin.

I was a real gentleman and lent my toy to my new girlfriends, while I went to moms house. (they don’t like me yet, but they liked the toy)

I loved snooping around moms house.

I got to snoop in her closet while she got ready.

She started changing her closet over to the fall/winter season,

she almost lost me in that mess.

 (looks like she is collecting evidence for “Chew List” part 3)

I was very patient (for a cat) waiting for her to get ready.

I waited,

and waited…

I wanted to go out side.

 I checked on the old dog.

 She looks good for 17 1/2.

Finally we went for a walk.

We went to the playground to practise “liking” the little humans, but they weren’t there.

Back at my house I tortured my brothers.

(Darnell didn’t want to play with me).

 I got caught stealing.

I climbed where I wasn’t allowed to climb.

To chew what I wasn’t allowed to chew.

(I ran when I got caught)

I stuck my nose into things I shouldn’t have.

 Fell asleep where I was in everyones way.

I must be going through my rebellious teenage period. (Or it was just too much cat nip this weekend.)

Tricks

I am not a fan of the little humans. Mom and I both have to learn how to get along with them. If we plan on performing at the day care center, we need to learn fast. This might not have been one of moms brightest ideas.

 The little human that wouldn’t let me nap, has learned to respect and play nice with me.

She is very polite, gentle and loving with me now.

I had so much fun playing with her.

Untill Darnell interrupted.

She gave me hope.

 There is no hope for me to study with out interruptions.

Mom isn’t a pro at training cats, this was her first time.

She had so much fun teaching me tricks, she thought other humans would have fun teaching their cats, so

we did a tutorial on how to jump through a hoop. I hope everyone tries it.

Cats really do like to learn.
