One Eye on the Future

My sisfur, Morticia, used to be quiet and unassuming.  But the last couple of years, she's become quite vocal (she's 8).  Mom Katt says it's because she's realized that one of the "perks" of get ti ng o l der (if indeed there ARE a ny) is realizing you can say whatever you're thinking and not give a damn! So here she is this morning, telling MomKatt she wanted morning gooshy goo dness! You all may not know this, but Morticia is VERY talented:  she even speaks English!  Well, she only knows one word, and she's saying it now, but when she DOES say it, her meaning is never in question .  Whereas when *I* say it, it comes out as just "MEOW", when Morticia says it, it comes out as "M E NOW! "  It always makes Mom&DadKatt laugh.  (Oh, and I guess that means she knows TWO words.  Well, cats c an't count , so don't blame me.) She's a professional charmer, too.  Morticia can work MomKatt over with those eyes.  D on...

OM C!   PEEPS! Today was supposed to be all about my b rofur, Peppers, 'cause it's "ManKatt Monday"  But I'm afraid it's gotten ... complicated. See, I just came upon these photographs in MomKatt's iP hone and I just don't know what to THINK.   They involve my DadKatt's childhoo d Muppet, Cookie Monster.  From this photograph, it's obvious that C ookie Monster is dead; he's not moving and there's no hand stuf fed up his butt. But why is he lying, dead, on OUR dining room floor? And why ... oh WHY ??? ... is Peppers sitting near to him?  Is he guarding the body?  Preserving the crime scene? Or . .. is the answer something f ar more sinister? I gues s this is a good time to say my MomKatt knows some good lawyers ...  * gulp* Oh Peppers !  How can you just LIE ther e like that, so ... so ... CASUALLY?! Can't you see he's DEAD? Oh kitties, I think I've stepped into some dystopian nightmare!  Could my b ...

Peppers isn't the only kitty in my house with an appealing tummy. Boy is this teaser ever boring ... I wish someone would operate it. It won't wiggle itself, you know! Purrz! Selina

Hi peeps, To dispel any r umors to the contrary, I love my sisfur, Morticia.  See how much I love her?  I love her SO much that I want to share one of her favorite spots in our house with her:  the peeps' bathroom window! Though I suppose it's debatable whether SHE wants to share it with ME, right? Oh well ... In OTHER news?   GUES S what I got yesterday?  Go on, just guess.  Oh never mind, I'll tell you - after a good while of hinting and hinting, MomKatt finally gave me ... MY OWN PAGE ON FACEBOOK !  (Just click there to be ma gically transported. I'm taking over the Interwebz!) I'd appreciate it if you'd "Like" my page, if you haven't already.  If you have a page, and let me know, I'll "Like" you back !  'Cause I DO l ike you!  Each & every one of you. We hope everyone has a good weeke nd and, of course, w e hope things in Boston resolve themselves soon, and that our friends & readers there stay sa...

Meowlo, peeps! New purr-spectives of moi!  Check 'em out! Our kitchen floor really makes my ebony fur s stand out (not to mention my golden eye). Hi MomKatt!  Boy, you're tall!  I'm gettin' a crick in my neck just looking up at you!   Think I'll tilt my head a bit - I get a better fo cus at this angle.   You love me, don't you, MomKatt? How 'bout I get up here so I can see you better? Now we see "eye to eye"!  :) Happy purrz, Selina  

Meowlo everyone. First, let me say that Selina and I are so glad and thankful that our blogging Aby buddy, JACOBY , and his family in Boston are OK and were not at the blast site yesterday. Today is a sad day .  The inevitable question one asks in these situations is, "Why?"  Wh ile there are many statements that one can make in an attempt to answer that q uestion, u nfortunately the truth is that there are no real answers.  At least, there are no ne that suffi ciently explain why some humans would want to kill or maim another group of humans, whom they do not know and ostensibly have no real quarrel with, to no outward, immediately apparent advantage to themselves.    A ttempting to explain yesterday's bombings (or any other act of ter ror ) by saying, "Well, there are bad people in the world", or "Some people just want to cause trouble " merely states the obvious.  In the end, whatever the reason given, none can adequately explain an eve...
