In which I am two!

Hello everyone....


today is my second birthday! We all had yummy tuna for tea and mummy Gill gave me pressies - I got a ball which isn't so much fun really but I haven't told her yet - and a squishy thing with a feather like a tail which I love and have nearly killed already! Here's a photo of me practising killing the squishy thing (look at those claws - wow!)



It's been ages since I last blogged and there was me thinking I'd get more computer time this year - huh! It's been a rather sad year with auntie Suki and auntie Sharni both going to the Rainbow Bridge. But uncle Pickle is still here and still lets me play with him although I have to be careful because he gets grumpy sometimes. Mummy Sassy is going to give me my birthday pressies at the end of August I think - mummy Gill keeps saying I will get some new brothers and sisters but I will have to be very gentle with them for several weeks.

Mummy Gill has been at home for absolutely ages and it's been nice to have her at home although I did like jumping in her huge bag when it had all her clothes in it! She says she will be at home for ages yet. While she was away we had a new room fitted on the house - well actually it looks the same as the room that was there before but cooler and whiter and there's less furniture although all my toys are still there - and we were looked after by people who came to visit everyday and it was fun seeing new people but it was good when mummy came home, she said it was something to do with some volcano, whatever that is. And I hid from the building men and the carers thought I was scared, but I wasn't, it was just that I didn't want to scare the builders 'cos I knew they had lots of work to do.

I never seem to be able to open the bedroom door now, I jump and jump but it stays shut, I must be losing my touch! But the weather has been so hot and sunny recently that I spend almost all my time outside which is very exciting but the long grass in my cat run has turned to sone strange straw-like stuff, and it's not so much fun to hide in any more because it's a bit spikey!



I'll write again soon when my miniature kitten pressies arrive! Byeeee!

Something called Christmas.....

.... followed by something called New Year.

We've been home from the cattery for ages and it's been great to be somewhere where the radiators are on almost all the time and I can eat almost anything (actually it's mostly Sharni's food) and I can do my jumping trick at the bedroom door again.

Actually the cattery isn't so bad - the nice people there cuddle me a lot and let me eat lots of food and play with me, but I can't run around a lot so when I come home I go absolutely mad and rush about and jump on and off all the furniture and mum says it sounds like a herd of elephants when I run up and down the stairs. I don't know what an elephant is but I don't think she's being complimentary.

Anyway, then mum put a tree up in the house, and it had lots of dangly things on it which I thought was great, lots of new toys for me to play with. And it lit up with pretty coloured lights, which I chewed but they didn't taste very nice, sort of crunchy but a bit plasticky so I didn't try those again. And all round the pictures there was this sparkly string stuff, which was really fun to pull on and chew. Mum got really cross so I don't do it any more.

And finally there was lots of nice food and fireworks and loud bangs; Sassy was a bit scared but I just jumped on her and took her mind off the bangs and she was okay again.

Suki wasn't very well for a while but mum took her to the vet and she had an injection which was okay apparently and she's feeling better now. Suki, that is, not mum.

It's been nice to have mum home and she's been around for ages. I jump on her and her computer when she least expects me; I especially like leaping up onto the back of the sofa and then landing on her computer when she's typing on it. She yells at me when I do that but I can tell she likes it really.

Apparently mum has made a new year resolution to let me play with the computer more in 2010, whatever that is. I don't think it involves more food but maybe I'll be able to update you more often with my blog.

All the humans are saying Happy New Year so I suppose I should say it too, whatever it means... actually I'll say my version, which is "happy and healthy purring and lots of headrubs to all my fans!"
