One Eye on the Future

Hi all! Thanks for your feedback from the other day.  Selina's going with Boudicca & Sasha on Saturday when they go see Dr. L for their well kitty exams.  They are going to squeeze her in & check her out.  I'm hoping this is nothing to worry about. Will keep ya'll posted ... thanks f or caring about My L ittle One-Eyed T hang.  :) MomKatt Laura

Hi, all, MomKatt here. I need some advice.  I'm hoping this is just a reaction to (A) the kittens and the adjustment period and (B) also adjusting to Boudicca being upstairs all the time now but ... poor Selina.  I don't SEE her doing the licki ng but it's the only thi ng I can put it down to. The fur on a lot of her tummy and the in sides of her legs is VERY thin, and has been for a couple of months now, like with Ray late last summer/early last f all.   Behaviorally speak ing, she's acting like her no rmal sel f;  eating, drinking, peeing, pooping, level of activity s ky-high (again, the kittens help with that, I think , because they chase each other and w hen I play "teaser" with Rachel, Selina & Ray are both right there, participating - and Boudicca, too, who really needs the activity ' cause she' s still slightly a butterball, but Selina can be non e too pleased about her presence, though she HAS mellowed out - A LITTLE). I wa s thinkin...

These "mystery butts" keep showing up in my sink a lot lately .... see if you can guess who belongs to this one ! If you guess correctly, you don't win anything in a material sense.  And you don't win a cat butt either, like you'd "win" a date on "Mystery Date" - remember that old board game?    You just receive the satisfaction of knowing that you are able to ID *my* black cats' butts.  I'm not sure what that says about you.  ha ha   If I were better at graphics, I'd "re design" that box top to make it conf o rm with the theme of this entry.  But ... I'm not.  So unless some tale nted volunteer steps up to the ... um ... sink ... just use your imagi nations! Hint:  The butt picture d is not Selina's Happy Friday - and spring's final ly HERE!  

*si nging* "Ahhhmmmm a man ... yes, I am ... and you can't help but love me so!" Oh H AI!  Isn't that a great song?  Bet some of you remember the lyrics.  MomKatt said you would.  It's me, Man Ray, here on ManKatt Monday to say that I hope everypurr has a pawsitively great week and show off the pictures MomKatt took yesterday of me lounging on the ir my sofa! L eather, too!  C O M F Y spells "COMFY"! On my nice green blankie!  (Well, it's MomKatt's but she lets me lay on it 'cause I love it so. A really nice close-up.  :) MomKatt's handsome, laid-back man-kitty for ALWAY S !  (That's what she calls me - amon gst other silly names.  MOL) Well, I'm gonna opt for a snooze now.  Ya'll come back now, y'hear?   Gentle headbonks to all, Ray (Man)

OK sports fans ... here on Throw back Thursday are a few pics of me when MomKatt first brought me home.  My "Gotcha Day" is coming up in April, so this is just a "whetting" of yo ur appetite for pics of moi!  Enjoy! Purr z! Selina

My poor sisfur, Morticia. Armed with her Valentine's Day weapons (wine, chocolate), she patiently awai ted the a rr ival of someone to share it with her. But n o one came. Except MomKatt, who ate the chocolate and dr ank the wine 'cause ca t s can't have wine or choc olate anyway. Doesn't s he look sad?  Poor 'Ticia. At least MomKatt took her picture(s)!  (And we all DID get extra lovins & treats on V-Day 'cause s he loves us!) Purrz, Selina   

No. Yes! For th ose that don't know, the "fake" Black Prince in the first photo is Edward, son of the English King Edward III, who was known as "the Black Prince" because he allegedly wore black armo r.  The real Black Prince in the second photo not only allegedly wears black armor, he keeps it meticulously groomed - bearing in mind that a knight is tidy and shiny at ALL times. Man Ray has recently been knighted as MomKatt's "Black Prince" and his knightly qualities include chivalry to all ladies (whether furry or not), a willingness to run about the house cha llenging infidel kitties to trial by combat using the famous "Pole Axe Smacky Paw" method of def ense, and lo yally and devotedly serving his Lady MomKatt by following her wherever she goes, looking anxiously at her from the kitchen counter and regularly rubbing against and winding around her ankles in the bedroom to let her know he loves her and that he is there to d...
