GROUNDHOG DAY ...MY WAY

Mommy said that today is groundhog day? It's supposed to mean this rodent comes out of the ground and looks for his shadow...why would he do that? I can see him being concerned about whether or not I would be around to make his day an unhappy one! But really...

Why do they get special days?

When is CATS DAY?

This would be my take on this day...
I'm an indoor cat...so why would I care???

HAPPY NEW YEAR

Better late than never...so mommy says?

Mommy has been going on and on about this thing she calls a new year's resolution! She's says that one has to make a list or have at least one item to change about themselves.

What if one is so perfect that they never have to change anything?

How can I change perfection?

She says that maybe I could change the way I feel about Thumber?

How does she know that I haven't? She's not home all day long...maybe I've been good to her while she's been gone? Thumber is still young and she still has a lot of learning to do and maybe she isn't smart enough to get it right the first time? How does she know it isn't a game we play with each other?

Or that, maybe, I could share my boxes?

Everybody know that all boxes in this household belong to me...the only box that I'm willing to share is the litter box! Even that has rules that applies to the use of it! That brat never covers properly...so the task is left up to me! Besides the one upstairs can be hers...climbing stairs is getting hard on the hip joints and she's the younger one!

Or that, I could be okay with her sleep in my favorite spots?

I've been letting her already or hasn't she noticed that? Besides it's a lot to ask with the way she drools when she sleeps and leaves the bed messy with all of her long hairs...so she's already pushed the limits on that issue!

Or that, maybe I could let her eat first, instead of me? Then I'd starve to death cause that little piggy would eat it all and then I'd only have crumbs left from her throwbacks...yuk! If she thought I'd up-chucked a lot now...she'd see what would happen if I did!

Or that, maybe I could be less vocal when company comes?

That would mean I'd have nothing to say and it's not like there's a lot of company!

Or that, maybe I could let mommy eat in peace without always asking her "what's that...can I see"?

I'm only trying to see to her welfare...what if it wasn't good for her or she might be mistaken and eat my stuff?

So as to my new year's resolution....

So, I say to you all out there...HOW CAN I CHANGE SUCH PERFECTION?

HALLOWEEN COSTUMES

My Mommy just happens to be the "Queen of Halloween" and she has always tried to get me to dress-up...no sir-e-e-e...not me!

Every times she tries, I fool her and just lay down!

I won't budge until she takes it off...nobody's gonna make a fool out of ME!

Thumber is even too smart to put up with that indignity! I guess were both smart & dignified cats!

I do have pictures of the foolish animals that don't mind...notice that they are mostly dogs?

Yup...never gonna be caught wearing anything like that...

I can be pretty scary dressing as myself!
