Wordless Wednesday

Really?

Heya kitties; Stella here.

You've seen the cats around this place right?

Spoiled, f.a.t.,

spoiled

They are shrouded, pampered princesses

They have more than one woobie and sleep on both  them at the same time

and there most likely is a person under there as well

They also lay on quilts in progress with their ears on fire

But me?

Well; I don't need all that nonsense

I prefer

the dirt

under the old bench, in the dirt

sometimes in the shade; but always in

the

dirt

Where do you guys like hangin' out?

From Miss Jenga

Bonjour Kitties!

Miss Jenga here; come to give you a tour of what occupies That Woman on Saturdays

well,  ME of course... but also the yard.

I go out to help her look over the grounds.  

She laments she is only one old decrepit person and it's a giant yard and too much work, but we 

do what we can to help her by not letting her hear us sniggering behind her back.

She tries to find plants that will be big to offer an overgrown cottage feel, but be drought tolerant. Not the easiest combination. 

Plumerias are wonderful as they don't require maintenance until summer, which is when She likes to be out watering by hand anyhow so they have been prolific.  The one above is over 5 feet tall.  She has several color varieties around the yard but they aren't all blooming yet. This one is a rainbow of pink, yellow & white. 

 Her next 'passion' was this bush.  Er, was a bush; she's trained it into a tree.  It's hard to keep up on it but it's been worth it. She really wanted  Wysteria, but they are difficult and only have a short bloom time (though admittedly so worth it!).  She found this and was quite pleased.  She planted one outside my bedroom window the same time she planted this one 3 looooong years ago. They started out only a foot tall; this one is now a lovely 'tree-in-training' and that is a 6 foot fence it's hovering over now. 

The one by my window looks like this from the outside. 

She has trained the honeysuckle (bright orange) on the left, combined with the brilliant blue-purple of this plant, the combined colors are wonderful and irresistible to our hummers.  Only problem there is they do get right up to the window and on more than one occasion She has been been rudely awoken with an errant cat foot in her face! (serves her right if you ask me!)

Here is what it looks like from my bed

Really the best time is at night; window wide open and we lay underneath feeling the cool breezed and smell the fragrant plumerias as the breeze carries their delicate but strong fragrance across the yard. 

There is also a goldfinch sock hanging there but they are such skittish birds she hasn't been able to photograph them as of yet.  She loves listening to them talk; I talk right back to them but my goldfinichan must be rusty, cos they lite off right away.  Maybe I've got too much 'hawk' in my inflections... hummmmmm..  

Oh well, thanks for readin, I love reading about everykitties gardens so it was nice to share ours. (more or less)

xoxo

Ms. Jenga

Cat-sat this little lady

Hiya!  We are pleased to introduce 'Kitty'

This darling girl adopted a great family we are friends with

if you biggify the photo you can see her right up close. 

She's just darling 

                                                                                    

She even keeps the family goggie in check (like most good kitties) 

She quickly tired of all my attentions and settled down for a nap. 

Christmas List

Note to self: 

Must remember to send a whole smoked salmon to Chez Spitay's for the Holidays

Weirded Out Wednesday

NO, I didn't photoshop this (I'm totally not that talented)  BUT I did nearly blind myself taking it~ so worth it!

Can't believe it turned out 

I think I'll call it  

"When Ceiling Cat and Basement Cat collide!"

But I'd LOVE to hear the amazing titles you guys come up with! 

Oh Those Tuxie Toes! (for Toesday)

Jack Toes! 

 That Woman is in love with these feets! 

Miss Jack enjoys the sun on her NipQuilt

Miss Jenga

So, when I'm not here oogling flutterbys

I'm here; dreaming of them

ppee; ssss;  That Woman leaves her sleeping spot like this on Sunday's just for me; she say's when she sees me here all snugglefied; she is nearly drawn in by the snugglyon particle field surrounding the immediate area.  But usually I get away with just a few worshipful kisses on my feets.  I can hang with that.

Snoozy Sunday

Ok; the heat is off (sort of) 

meantime

my woobie is comfie

and That Woman had the decency to turn off the blindness death ray to take a photo

So, it's dark

but it's good

just like me

enjoy the toes!

Here's one I'm particularly fond of; I was feeling very ebil and flew off like my tail was on fire right after this! 

hee; note all my whiskers standing out & the wicked slant on my eyes!  

I chased a few fattie cats round the lawn this day!  HAH!  it's good to be Queen!

Something you don't see everyday

A size comparison: Ms. Stella above (on the bed next to me the entire night!) needless to say I was in heaven.

Ms. Jengs

As the fireworks continued until 1am something very unusual happend in our home.

I became the 38th parallel

it seemed as long as I was in the middle; these two could actually lay with me (carefully pretending the other didn't exist) and be at peace.  It was a wonderful evening for me to be sure. 

I used the panorama thing on my camera phone to capture this incredibly rare photo

Miss Jengs couldn't have cared less about the fireworks but Ms. Stella continued to pace and growl everytime she would hear some (even when I couldn't hear them) utnil they stopped and she flopped down all worn out. 

Here they are in a shot that won't ever happen in reality;

but I can dream!

Happy Red, White and BOOM day!

 

I'm not unpatriotic...  It's just that I really hate fireworks!  I refuse to 'hide' in my own house so that leaves me free to roam from room to room growling and 'ruffing' and 'huffing' all damn day and nite long.   We haz tried closing up the house, we haz the gurl turn her music up loud (she loves that!) and leaving the a/c fan running.  All to no avail. so forgive me if I sound unpatriotic or something but I really hate this weekend of the year. The older I get; the more I am crabulated by it.  I'm currently so crabulated I'm horkin up a good one as we speak! Hold on...

Ugh; that's better...  Anywayz, where was I?  Oh ya:  That Woman's camera phone is so crappy she can't  capture the sounds of my discontent to share.  They are quite loud I assure you!  So, until round about Wednesday, after every juvenile boy has finally shot their wads run out of noise makers, I'm in self imposed lockdown (and so is everyone else!).  

 

Only nice thing about it is I'm here for lunches when sliced ham is served or even better at night when *que angelic music* chicken is served.  BTW; I can eat and growl at the same time.  Ya, cuz that's how I roll. 

I WOULD like to give a SHOUT OUT of HOOORRAYY! Mr. Pierro is home safe and sound and Miles is due to be released from prison  should be home this evening.   I can't tell you enough how relieved I am that both boyz are fine and all is well over at the Happy Place!  It was a real worry there and we waz purrrrayin our hearts out!  

Oh; and we can't wait to find out what jailhouse tattoo's the boyz got! We haz bets goin :)
