One Eye on the Future

Once upon a time (a long time ago into yesterday), two black cats were meowing to each other in Reidsville.   Selina, a bit frantic, said: "OK MomKatt ... this isn't funny ... WHERE is the gooshy fud?  It's ALWAYS kept here, RIGHT HERE.  And as you see now, there's nothing.  NOTHING here.  NOTHI NG!" " Morticia, HOW can you sit there so calmly?  Can't you see?  TH ERE IS NO GOO SHY FOOD IN THE CABINET!  WE'RE GOING TO STARVE!  What's wrong with you, woman?  Why aren't you meowing your head off?!" T o which the calmer of the two felines replied : "Oh Selina, relax!  You're always going off the deep end.  I'm not worried, MomKatt'll come through with the goods.  She always does - you'll see.  Just be patient  See?  Like me. "   Selina began turning around and around in the open cabinet. " OMC ... there is NO gooshy fud!  What 'll we DO?  It's GO T to be somewhere....

Merry Monday Mo rning, Pee ps! Yeah, we ll, usually I'm NOT this lively on Monday mornings, but my furriend, Nerissa , has given m e an a ward and I'm SO excited! It's the " Inspiring Blog Award "!  Nerissa, I'm gla d you're my friend & that you and, presumably, your hooman find my blog inspiring.  Something like this makes me think all this blogging is worthwhile. THANK YOU! So all I have to do once I've rec eived this is give it to five other deserving blogs - that's it, nothing else to d o!   The five I've chosen are: Forever Home Wante d - I know they probably won't respond but I wanted to get the word out on this site if you were not aware of them alr eady.  If you're not, check it out!  It's run by Terry, father of Brian of Brian's Home !  He helped ME find my own for ever home - his blog (Brian's) was where my ori ginal story was posted and where MomKatt first fell in love with me.  (No, no bias h...

Mornin' Peeps & Happy F riday! It's not a Fur- Lo w Furriday today but NEXT Friday is for MomKatt - and that means a FOUR DAY WEEKEND 'cause of the July 4th holiday!  As you can see, I'm getting all excited & prepared by camping out with my two favorite things:  M omKatt's shoes and my leopard teaser! I felt generous this morning and decided to forgive MomKatt forgetting my Blog-O-Versary.  So, when she whipped out the iPhone, I *did* cooperate and look up at her like she asked me to do!  :)  And here are the results of my cooperation.  Aren't I gorgeous?  MomKatt says I am one sleek, shiny House Panther. Think those kittens will turn out as gorgeous as I have?   Guess we'll just have to see! News on them, they are still at our house.  Ray didn't eat his gooshy fud this morning but MomKatt's hoping that is just 'cause he OD'ed on crunchy food maybe before she got up there to fee d them.  Rachel, meanw...

HONESTLY :  I am going to advertise for "better staff". MomKatt?  HELLO?!  Blog-O-Versary? June 15, 2011 ?  Ring any bell s ? Of course not.  Her head's still on Camano Island.  Without it, the rest of her isn't much good.   C'mon woman!  Get foster kittens, Mariano Rivera, the Da -troit Tigurrs, Max Schurzer, Humphrey Bogart and whoever else is in your head OUT of it a nd focu s on ME!  Hey!  Over here!  Yoooo -hooooo!   *waves paws*   Anyway, MY Blog-O -Versary was two Saturdays ago.  Feel free to celebrate.  Me, I think I'll go pout in the corner. Better yet, I'll bathe.  It helps me think. Purrz,  Selina the neglected     

Meowlo, peeps! Today, Thank ful Thursday, I'd just like to say: Aren't you thankf ul fo r me? I was thinking about this just t he other day.  Just think:  If my Uncle Bill and my MomKatt hadn't made sur e that my life changed for the 150% better from my days roaming around that country club dumps ter, where wou ld ya'll be right now?  I mean, woul d your lives be enriched by this particular, special, silly, funny and loving uniocular kitty?  NO.  Would you have had the benefit of seeing me snoopervise DadKatt putting together that kat tree?  NO.  Would you have been able to follow, no doubt with drawn breath and pounding hearts, the story of my wonder ful rescue and my gorgeous, loving, wonderpurr home & pawren ts?  Of course yo u wouldn't. So ... BE THANKFUL , OK?!  ;-)  I know *I* am.       Not on ly that, I'm modest too. Hey, MomKatt!  Can I fit into this bag?  I wanna go to wor k with ...

(PSST!  I'M STILL HERE!  Those kittens haven't COMPLETELY taken over my blog - YET!) OK back to your Wordless Wed., which has already been too noisy. PURRZ! Selina PS - And my blog's kinda pink-ish al ready & M omKatt's afraid to change any of the colors in case she screws it up but we are thinking of Skeezix today.  XOXO

Mornin' peeps! Well, ov er the weekend MomKatt experienced some major progress with Kitten Ray ... and I managed to get lap time during the Tigers' game (and the subsequent Mariners' game they watched after THAT) yesterday afternoon.  (Both teams won, so Mom&DadKatt were very happy about that ; plus she watched MARIANO close on Sat. afternoon f or the Yanks so she was baseball'ed out ... but happy.) ANYWAY ... this is NOT a post about baseball.   The R EALLY BIG NEWS i s about Ray.  I will let the pictures below tell the story in Ray's thoughts. "Oh no .. . th ere's that HAND again!  I t keeps tryin g to get near to me ... wait a second, what' s that thing?  I t's h olding something that ... lo oks like a litt le chicken leg!  What IS that?  Should I investigate it?"   "Hummm ... I don't know.  I think it looks kinda suspect.  It IS in Giant L ady's hand ... su re smells good thought.  OK ... I'l l move a lit...
