It is I, Caspurr the Tigger Tabby.
We had a furry pleasant weekend, doing nothing much but snuggling up to Mummy while She watches TV.
Oh, and I gave her a treat yesterday. I had been thinking about this for quite a while. On Saturday mornings, She likes to sleep late, which means We have to wait quite a long time for Our Breakfast. So I was thinking, how can I wake her up gently. I thought and thought, and then I came up with a brainwave! How about a shampoo and head massage?
No sooner had the idea come to Me, than Deed followed Thought. Out came my raspy little pink tongue and I started vigorously grooming Mummy.
And She woke up.
And She said it tickled.
But She didn't push Me away.
But - She didn't get up.
So I called on Shimshi for assistance. And he jumped on her tummy.
So She rolled over on her side and Shimshi and I called on Trixie to help Us.
Trixie, being a ladycat, was much more subtle. She gently took Mummy's hand between her teeth and pulled - effur so gently, at furrst and then, when that didn't work, a bit more insistently.
And Mummy finally awoke from her dream (which was probably about which flavour Fancy Feast She was going to give Us for Our Shabbat Breakfast) and, with heroic devotion to Our Welfare, dragged herself from her Nice Warm Bed and set about her Duty of Feeding Us.
After that, She made herself some coffee and a sandwich and went back to bed, while We did our Morning Exercise - zoomies on the staircase. Then we went and curled up on the sofa and rested and waited patiently for Mummy to give Us lunch.
We hope you all had a similarly restful weekend. Do drop by and tell Us all about it.
We love hearing from our anipals and also from our Human admirers.
Have a great week.

Well that was interesting! I must try the shampoo and massage approach! I had the zoomies this morning and left quite a few furs on the landing!
The cats in our house howl and that gets everyone out of bed fast!
We're gonna try that. The mom never gets up when we want her to.
I work so hard some days to get the human out of bed! Your mummy doesn't stand a chance with three of you :)
Jenna - the key here is cooperation and coordination.
Shampoo and a head massage, huh? You get a tip for doin' that?
Purrs,

That sure was a nice way to wake up Mummy on Shabbat, sweet pals. We have to try that shampoo and head massage technique here. :)
You are lucky. TBT is Highly Resistant to our "waking-him-up strategies". We never know WHEN breakfast will show up. On the other paw, WHEN he gets up, he always feeds us before himself.
Yes, Mummy always feeds Us furrst, too. We've got to paw her that.
It's wonderful that all of you worked together to wake you mom so that she could feed you your breakfast. If I bother my humans too early, dad locks me out of the bedroom. But mom doesn't like that so she joins me in the spare bedroom and leaves dad to himself!
you guys are great pals; I allow Sage to share my bed once in a while as long as she stays way on the other side
