It’s a Wonderful Month!

Hemingway, why did you mess up the rug?

Hemingway and rug

There are many reasons!  First of all, I messed it up ‘cuz I could!  Secondly I was thinking about all the hours Mom has been spending away from home and I got a little mad so I figured messing up the rug would get her attention.  Then suddenly it hit me…….

I did not hit you!

I’m sure you did, but what I meant was I all of a sudden realized why Mom has been gone so much.  She’s out shopping for all my birthday presents.  My birthday is only 12 days away now and I’m going to be 5!!!  That’s one whole paw!!!

Shakespeare and chairI hate to burst your bubble filled with catnip, but Mom’s not out shopping for your birthday presents.  She’s been busy practicing for her big choir concert at church.  Here’s a picture of the choir.  Mom’s the one in the red robe….hehehehe

You think you’re so funny!

My eyes may look like they’re shut, but I’m glaring at you, Shakespeare!

I don’t care.  Oh, and by the way, this is the way to mess up a rug.  You have to protect it or the humans will straighten it out again.

 

Hiding Don’ts

This is what Mom and I saw when we went looking for Hemingway:

hemingway hidesMom says Hemingway needs hiding lessons!

I do not!!!  I left my tail out on purpose ‘cuz it’s so beautiful.

Whatever.  Mom says she wants to share a picture she took of the moon the other night with our readers.  Is it okay if she posts it on our blog?

I don’t care.  Leave me alone.  I’m trying to take a nap.

Whatever.

The Moom Dec 6By the way, we were both asleep when she took that picture.  We don’t understand why she wanted to go out in the cold and dark just to use that flashy box.  She always tells us that we can’t go out in the cold and dark.

It’s a human thing!

In the Dog House

Hemingway, what have you done now?

Why?

Mom says you are in the dog house.  I didn’t even know we had a dog house.  Why would we have a dog house when we don’t have a dog?  Where is this dog house?  Is there food in the dog house?  How come a cat would be in a dog house?

Done asking questions now?

I guess so.

Well, Mom got a little upset with me this morning.  You know how I tend to be not very graceful…

You’re just plain klutzy!!!

Enough!  I feel bad enough as it is.  I was trying to jump up on Mom’s shoulder this morning and I missed.  I reached out to grab something and it happened to be her lower lip.  She didn’t even yell at me ‘cuz she was so surprised.

Is that why she had all that red stuff falling?

Yes, that was blood and when I saw that I really felt bad.  She couldn’t even go to church ‘cuz the blood wouldn’t stop.

So you gave Mom a fat lip????

Hemingway PrayingGod, if I exercise on this bike every day and promise to be a good kitty, do you think Mom will forgive me for accidentally hurting her? Could you also help Shakespeare to forget all about this?  I don’t need him reminding me all the time.  Sigh.

From the Mom:

Hemingway, you’re forgiven.  I know you didn’t mean to hurt me.  I will always love you and your little brother!  However, it’s fine with me if you never do it again.  

It’s Happening Again!!!

Hemingway…….look at our blog.

What’s wrong?

We have “stuff” falling on us again.

Don’t worry, that’s just snow.

Don’t worry????  Is the snow going to fill up the inside of the house now too?

No.  It’s just snowing on our blog.  It’s some special effects we get every year for Christmas.

But I don’t like walking on that snow stuff and I surely don’t like it falling on me! Make it stop.
Quit being such a baby. I keep telling you it's only snowing on our blog and not in the house.

Well, I still think if you leave our blog up too long the inside of our house will look like this:

Copy of P1030152In the first place, that’s the outside.  But if you’re that worried, I’ll quit writing on the blog for now.  Happy?

Yes I am.  I’m going to go see if there are some treats in the kitchen.  I’m sure I can eat now that I’m not worried about a big bunch of snow in the house.

Humans:  Do you see how twisted an orange tabby’s brain can be?  If the snow was falling in our house because of our blog, it would melt ‘cuz it’s much warmer inside than it is outside.  I need a nap!
