"Hey, don't go to sleep now...there's more of me and my buddies!"
Aw, but my Dad works so hard and he needs as much sack time as he can get. Come gardening season, he's outside almost as much as my Mom. I know he enjoys it, too, but, gee whiz, sometimes it cuts our "guy-bonding time". So, it's up to me to make sure he doesn't get bothered by Mom when he can catch a few "Z's". Notice how much "on guard" I am! (Don't let those closed eyes fool you!)
But, alas....what's a kitty to do when the folks are out and there's no interesting bird or squirrel activity outside the window, cause my gardening humans are creating such a racket out there, they've scared all my feathered friends away from the feeders. I've already taken my requisite 5 hour nap...Hmmmm??Let's see what's on the tube? Ah-ha...Animal Planet: "Can Kitties and Birdies Learn to Co-Exist?" Or.."Duh??"
Now...how do you get this VCR to work? I taped that Tigger movie the other day...but my paws can't always hit the right channel, so I may have taped Oprah instead. That might not be too bad, think she was doing a show on "Feeding Your Inner Cat" with Dr. Phil.
As you can see, he was quite the Met fan, which made it just a little touchy for Dad...as he was, is and probably always will be a Yankee fan. But, guess he won my Dad's heart despite their sport's rivalries. Mister was with them for the first half of their married life. My Mom and Dad still miss him. I have him to thank for paving the way for me in their hearts. Just follow the wheelbarrow..
This was my Mom's first cat, MISTER. She had him waaaaaaay before she met my Dad. She and Mister lived together in their own apartment in New York. When she finally started dating someone who met with Mister's approval....then she didn't have much choice but to marry the guy!! Lucky for me that Mister had such good taste in Dads!
"Pssst!Hey, Cat! Ole Buddy, Tyler. Pal O'Mine... Your Mom's not planning on using these flats to plant any of her seeds in....is she?? Gosh, just when I had stashed away a full supply of sunflower seeds and peanuts!! Drats!! Hey, Cat....got any room in any of your, like...GAZILLION beds..for a little guy like me? I don't take up much room, and I'll let ya fling me in the air once in awhile...long as you hold the claws and retract those fangs. Remember, your Mom likes chippys, too! Matter of fact, she's partial to all us creatures and critters. Maybe that's why we like it here so much. Think maybe me and the squirrels will hafta speak to that pesky vole that's been suckin down her plants. I'm sure if he left them alone, she'd throw out some more corn for him, too!"
I know my Mom gardenz has some of her crafts she'd like to share with you. Gee, if she's not spending my precious lap time out in the garden, she's in that craft room! Well, at least, as you saw, I keep her company when she's starting those darn seeds! I suppose, while you're here, you might as well check out a few of the things she's made. That is if you can tear yourself away from this ME!
