Updates and running commentary from our critters

I have just begun deploying nip-slathered toys to get the Z-man from tormenting his elderly sister at night: she wants to sleep in peace, he wants to parTAY (or wrestle). He evidently has retired to the adjoining cat condo basket with his toy.

This is SERIOUSLY the truth! My two boyz will holler from the corner of the dining room where their dry cat is - and all I have to go do is stir up the crunchies that are still in the bowl and pull them to the front, and they think it’s new stuff. :::SMH:::

I think I heard that some cats have sensitive whiskers, so they prefer to avoid trying to eat the food that is on the edges or further down because they are trying to avoid discomfort (and know they’ve trained us to “fix” it).

(and know they’ve trained us to “fix” it).

Just remember, “Whisker Fatigue” is real!

Have I mentioned that our lil monkey boy has the habit of waking us up in the morning — not to be fed, mind you, as his bowl runneth over most of the time — no, he would just like to have some company while he eats, please & thank you.

This morning, it was still dark AF when he marched into our bedroom, meowing loudly… maybe 4:30? 5am? We managed to fall asleep again but WTF?

Then we get an email from our vet, who sent their birthday wishes!* Guess his highness was ready to be celebrated like a kid on xmas day. Thank goodness he’s a cuteh

Happy birthday, Rocky Racoco, munchkin, monkey boy, fluffmonger, assclown, stinky! You’ll always be my baby

*I have no idea where the vets get the date. The lil boy was found an orphan on the side of the road at 6 months, which would make him 11 years old. The Dude only lived to 12, so we’re hopeful this cuteh stays with us for a very, very long time

Happy Birthday

Happy birthday, Rocky Racoco, munchkin, monkey boy, fluffmonger, assclown, stinky!

I love all of the “extra” names we give our furkids. Happy birthday, gorgeous man!

[linguafood (Natascha)]

I forgot half of them, probz. He’s a darling

[Meekah]

Mr. Stinky is an extra name here, too. For my girl; bootaful.

[linguafood (Natascha)]

Bc cat hair alone doesn’t get everywhere. You also need glitter

[paryzer (Eli Paryzer)]

That’s dangerous! I hope that cat doesn’t suffer fron gastro issues by ingesting that glitter.
