Bird - Watching

Hallo again, Effurrybody!

Guess what has happened!

We bet you can't.

You can't, can you?

Okay, we're going to tell you!

You remember that silly birdie that laid its eggs in one of Mummy's flowerpots on the window sill and then sat on a pebble instead of on the eggs?

Well, the eggs hatched - and now there are two little, fluffy baby birdies.

We were looking forward to being allowed back into the study, to watch Bird TV, but no! Mummy says we would frighten the birdies. 


We snuck into the room when Mummy wasn't looking and the Mama Birdie saw us and flew away. We managed to glimpse the baby birdies through the glass window before Mummy chased Us out.

Wasn't that mean of her, Kitties?  Our favourite Bird TV programme and We aren't even allowed to watch it!!! We had to make do with another channel - Moth TV.

Moth TV isn't all that bad, actually. We had great fun chasing the moths, even though we didn't manage to catch a single one. Mummy filmed Us during the Chase, but She's been unable, so far, to upload the film to MewTube. It was very tiring, We were quite exhausticated afterwards, so We just flopped down and, as soon as Mummy had fed Us and put fresh water in our bowls, We went to sleep.

Now, Kitties (and other Anipals), We are going to flop down and go to sleep again - but not before wishing you all Shabbat Shalom and a Pleasant Weekend. To those of you who are celebrating Pessach, We wish Chag Sameach. To those of you who are celebrating Easter, We wish Happy Easter. And for all the rest of you - have a lovely Spring!

Gotcha!

Greetings, Effurrybody!

This is just a short post to remind all our anipals (and Human followers) that tomorrow, April 11th, is Caspurr's first Gotcha Day celebration.  Exactly one year ago, just three days after our Human's own birthday, Caspurr arrived. We are going to have a Pawty in the evening, at 8 p.m. Israel time. In fact, since it's the weekend, We thought We'd make it an Overnighter. So get your Tunnels, Esses, Egg Whisks etc. ready! We are looking forward to seeing all Our furriends :-)

The Deed is Done!

Greetings, Effurrybody!

Okay, now it's Oh-fish-ull!

Mummy has bought Us a New Home!
And now that all the papers are signed, We are allowed to talk about it. So We shall tell you all effurrything We know, effurry scrap of infurrmation We have been able to glean from Mummy.

At furrst, We have to say We were furry disappointed. The new flat has no garden or catio. It doesn't even have a proper balcony :-(

However, Our Human has some ideas about how to make the most of what We have. For example, She thinks it will be possible to enclose the front porch with a white picket fence and turn it into a (furry small) catio. What's more, We kitties will have our Own Room and Mummy has some idea of planting a large window-box with Kitty Grass, so that Our Room (which will be lavishly furr-nished with all the Toys a Kitty could want) has its own little balcony where We can sit and enjoy whiffles whenever We feel like it.

Finally, Mummy says that the living-room has a huge panoramic window which takes up most of one wall, so we will be able to watch Bird TV in Cinemascope.

So, we are going to swallow Our Disappointment and await developments. At all events, since the balcony in Our Present Domicile is an enclosed balcony, We won't be any worse off and as the New Flat is much bigger than this one, and has an Upstairs and a Downstairs, with more room to run around, it is sure to be a change for the better.

Mummy hopes to be able to move to Our New Home some time in August. In the meanwhile, She keeps coming up with New Ideas for Our Comfort, such as how to furr-nish Our New Room. Now, effurry time We take a nap, We dream about what fun it's going to be.

Here are a couple of pictures of Us dreaming about the New Appurtment:

Have a lovely Weekend, Anipals. Shabbat Shalom!

Daylight Robbery

Greetings, Effurrybody!

You'd never believe what has happened, anipals!

We went to sleep last night as usual (way after midnight, because we waited for Mummy to come home from the caterwauling concert opera), expecting to sleep till about seven o'clock in the morning and then wake Mummy up by sitting on her tummy with a gentle headbutt, in time for her to let her Cleaning Lady in.  But instead, Mummy woke Us up an hour early (by Our Reckoning) and told Us that all the clocks have been put forward for Daylight Saving Time.

Do you know what that means, kitties? 

It means they have stolen an hour of Our Lives!!!

What gives them the right to do that???

You know what We think, Kitties (and Other Anipals)? We think that Spring makes people (and some animals, but not Kitties) go a little crazy.

How else can you explain the fact that this birdie, who dared to make her nest on Our Windowsill, laid a single Egg in one of Mummy's flowerpots, but then chose to sit on a small pebble that was lying in the earth there, instead of on the Egg?!

Huh! Talk about Birdbrained!

Well, We now feel the Urgent Need to make up for our lost stolen sleep, so We are going to go and lie down, somewhere where We won't be disturbed, and let Mummy get on with preparing the Shabbat evening meal. (Pssst! She has promised pink trout...Yummy!)

Shabbat Shalom to you all. Have a lovely Weekend!

Purim Pawty!

Hallo, Effurrybody!


It's Purim! In fact, for Caspurr, it's his first Purim! That's when effurybody gets to dress up in funny costumes. So Mummy made us wear these silly hats!

We think Kitties should be allowed to choose their own Purim costumes, don't you? We can come up with something much better than clowns' hats!

Anyway, we are writing this blog now, because we want to invite you all to our Purim Pawty tomorrow afternoon at 5.30 pm. (Israel time). There'll be plenty of food (Fancy Feast of all flavours) and drink (including the Hard Stuff). 

So get your tunnels and other Transportation Devices ready and we'll see you all tomorrow.

And don't forget - this is a Fancy Dress Pawty!

Happy Birthday, Caspurr!

Kitties! Anipals! Humans! 
Lend Us your Ears!

Today is a furry Impawtant Day!
Today is Caspurr's First Birthday!

Yes, that's right! It's amazing how quickly Time flies by! Today, Caspurr is One Year Old! So We have asked Mummy to bake a Birthday Cake - with Tuna Mousse Icing.

We are hoping She won't make any purr-oblems about that. She might - because She says Caspurr is overweight and needs to go on a strict diet.


Caspurr here! Diet, you call it?! Starvation is what I call it! She only feeds Me twice a day! How is a Mancat supposed to keep up his Strength on such short rations?


You forgot to mention, "Little" Brofur, that you also eat half of My noms! It's no wonder you're so fat and I'm so thin. Yes, it's true, Kitties! And it isn't even as if he eats his own noms and then turns his attention to My food bowl. No, indeed! First he comes and eats My rations and then he goes and eats his own!
What's more, it's true we only get two official meals a day, but Mummy also puts some kibbles in the Snack Bowls in the kitchen mid-day, so Caspurr is furry, furry far from being starved!

Why are you being so mean to Me, Trixie - and on my Birthday, of all days? 

I am not mean to you! Not, not, not! Haven't I looked after you since you were a tiny little kitten, and taught you effurrything I know? Here, I will give you a Birthday Kissie on your nose. Happy Birthday from your loving Sisfur.
xoxox


Okay, Sis - I don't really think you're mean. And to show you how much I truly love and appurreciate you, I will now groom your Splendiferous Tail for you. 
But first of all, Effurryone, Trixie and I have some Miaowmentous News for you all.

Are you ready?

Mummy has sold Our Home! She signed all the Papers yesterday! 

And that's not all! She has found Us a New Home. She says we won't talk about it just yet, until she and the owner sign something called a c-o-n-t-r-a-c-t, because She is afraid to jinx the deal. But We are all furry, furry excited.

Now, Kitties (and other Anipals), to get back to the Main News of the Day - namely, Caspurr's Birthday - because Furr-iday is rather inconvenient, since effurryone is pre-purring for Shabbat, we have decided to hold the Official Birthday Party tomorrow afternoon at 5 pm. Israel time - and, of course, you are all invited!

See you tomorrow then!

Shabbat Shalom!

Trixie and Caspurr

Just To Let You Know...

...We're still here!

Mummy has been very neglectful of her duties towards Us of late. She hasn't been helping us with the Computer Machine. So you could be purr-doned for thinking We had gone away somewhere.

But - We haven't! We are still here, being effur so Good and Patient, while She sorts out things like trying to sell Her apurrtment Our Home and find a bigger one, and so on and so forth. And she appeared as a guest purr-former with another Caterwauling Club (ie. not her own) and had a So-Low (which is what She calls a So-High). Why does She call it a So-Low when the notes are high enough to shatter glass??? She drove Us crazy with her purr-acticing!

She did find time to take some flattering pictures of Us though!

She took these with her new flashy-box that She talks into. We think the pictures turned out not at all badly, don't you?

Have a Good Week!

Trixie and Caspurr
