MY NEW BACKGROUND

2010-08-21T20:34:00.000-07:00

How do you like my new background?

My old one didn't work anymore so I got a new one.

Mom says that it's too old for me, but it's not-it's new.

She used a word called so-fist-akated
wherever that means, but she says that I can keep
it for now.

Let me know what you think.

DID YOU MISS ME

2010-08-21T18:28:00.000-07:00

I can't believe it! Mom's letting me blog!

I'm still in my room most of the time that I am in the house, but I do get to go outside alot. I am so special to come in. The porch kitties are so jealous.

Mom says that I am a much better kitty since she got a new thing which plugs into the little holes in the wall.

I just want to love on her more. And I don't growl and hiss as much when I'm scared. I'm not so nervous that I need to pee outside of my potty either which Mom says makes her happy. The thing is called Cat Fair a moans, what ever that is, although I haven't heard it moan.

Here's a picture Mom got for me and That's It!

I sure surprised Mom the other evening when she called me from outside. She was late and it had got dark out so I climbed on the roof. Just to be safe you know, from the scary things.

She called and called.

I cried, but it took her a while to look UP,

and there I was.

She got a little step and reached for me, but I was afraid to stretch out to her so after she went back inside, I came down my usual way and she let me in. I sure fooled her!

Well, I gotta go, she went into the food room and I don't want to miss anything. Bye.

A NEW ROUTINE

2009-12-30T19:23:00.000-08:00

I am in the room where I blog with Al, our rat,

but the other cats are gone. I can still lie on the plant place and look out the window, but Mom won't let me leave. I peed on the floor like I do in the table room. Mom got mad at me. I guess that I don't do a very good job of covering it like I should. When she took me over to the floor and made me look at her and talked to me so strongly and then put me in my piney potty box, I knew that I didn't do a good job of covering, so I ran right over and tried to cover better, but it didn't help. Mom then did a strange thing. She got water coming out of her eyes and loved on me. I do go outside when it is in the warm. Our garden is nice. I talk to Spring. When I am really nervous about going out, Mom puts Lucy cat out with me for company. I like that.

CHRISTMAS BACKGROUND CHEER

2009-12-23T19:38:00.000-08:00

I just noticed!!! I have a new blog background. Mom says that it's for the Christmas holidays.I don't know what that means, but I sure like the new look. Mom's says that holidays are special times for telling each other how much we love them. I sure know that Mom loves me and when I need love all I have to do is climb in her lap and she pets and kisses me while I purr and love her back. Every day must be holiday here. Mom helped me put in a really pretty holiday picture here.

FIGURING OUT THE WORLD

2009-12-23T19:14:00.000-08:00

I've been out in the bright warmy every day except for a few watery days.
Mom's started something new with me. I am put out to the garage in the light time and brought into the kitty-computer room in the dark time. She doesn't put me down in the rest of the house. I don't really understand. I liked lying on her bed with her and Sweety and Lucy, but I'm not now. I am glad that I am in my room in the dark cold time and not in the garage like the garage kitties. I guess that it's okay, as long as I can love on Mom and blog on the computer. I think maybe that I have been bad. I get confused sometimes. I made poop on the table room carpet and was put into the garage for the dark cold time. I got scared and hated that. A little after that I peed in that same place. I don't understand. When I was little, Blacky cat peed there too. It seem like the grown up Cat thing to do. Now Blacky stays in the garage all the time. Mom put sticky paper over the whole carpet for a long all the bright warm days time, but then the paper came up in one place and I thought that it was okay to pee again. Mom got mad and put funny smelling wet stuff all over. I didn't like it, but it didn't stop me! SOMETIMES IT'S HARD BEING A CAT, even a SPECIAL one.

ISN'T JUMPING MY JOB?!

2009-12-17T17:38:00.000-08:00

I saw Mom shaking the dark dusky stuff out of a jar over my two favorite surfaces. I've seen that jar above the big hot box in the same room where she makes her tea in the little white box that makes noise and goes beep when it's finished with her tea.
Sometimes she shakes that stuff from the same jar on her food. I don't know why she would like to eat it, it smells awfal and sure spoils my fun! I am sleeping alot. Outside looks scary with dark way up and air blowing hard down low. It's not where I want to be. I miss the bright and gentle warm, I hope that it comes back. Now that I don't like my favorite surfaces and I get into trouble for chasing the other kitties, there's not alot for me to do. Sometimes I wish that I had a job like Spring. I guess that I was wrong when I thought that my job was to jump on the girls and to clear as many surfaces as I wanted.

WINTER MEWS

2009-12-16T17:20:00.000-08:00

Mom allowed me out for awhile today. It's not as much fun as when she goes out too, but I still like it when I get to lie on the porch in the warm. The garden cat, Butch was here, but he doesn't bother me. Lucy laid in the same place as me, or almost. I don't bother her outside, so it's okay. I don't jump on her as much inside as I do Sweety either. She's nastier about it and then it's not so much fun. I've asked Mom if I can post some pictures of my kitty family and she said that I have grown so much to even think of that! Yes, she'll take some pictures for me.
Spring says that the garden is so sad after the frost, but I think that it look fine.
Spring looks a little sad. She's beginning to have little brown spots all over her.
I wonder if Mom knows. Oh well, who cares. I've gotta go now and find something FUN to do. Oh, something's happened I don't really like. A dark dusky something has appeared on my favorite surfaces to play on and clear, you know, knock things off of. Well, I don't like the dusky stuff. I gets in my nose and on my paws and smells funny. I can't tell Mom, she doesn't like it when I get up there anyways.

SLEEPING AND PLAYING: IT'S MY JOB

2009-12-12T00:12:00.000-08:00

Water came down from the sky today so I didn't get to go out.
The garage smells like something strange came in last night since Mom forgot to close the little flappy opening for the garage cats. I think that something got in because the garbage bag had a hole in it and stinky stuff was pulled out.
I don't really like to go into the garage any more. I hustle out of the kitchen when Mom opens the kitchen door to the garage.
I slept most of the day. There wasn't really anything to do. I did chase Sweety kitty and climb on top of her biting her neck. I don't know why I do that, but I sure like to. She gets so mad when I do it too much. She will hiss and growl at me and run. THATS WHEN THE FUN STARTS, and I chase her all around and jump on her again. When she's had enough and is very upset she jumps by Mom's side on the chair to be saved. Then I know that the game is over. I GOTTA GO! Mom's making tea and when she does, she wads up the little paper bag and tosses it on the floor for me to play with. I hear it crinkling now. WHAT FUN!

A FUN TIME IN THE GARDEN

2009-12-10T17:29:00.000-08:00

Mom let me go out into the garden today in the bright and warm.
Bruiser cat, that's what I call our garden cat visitor, was warming his fur on our back porch and I said "Hi" as usual. Only Blacky cat doesn't like him. I think that he is swell. He seems to like me too. There were so many new smells and crawlly flying things to investigate that the bright sky thing was on the other side of the day very quickly. I am very happy in our garden, but I won't go out to the cars go by side. I don't want to meet any scary growlly things. The growlly things on the other side of our fence don't bother me too much since I know that they can not get to me and hurt me. I don't jump at them on the fence like I used to, it makes me too nervous now. Spring, Mom's garden watcher was very busy in the garden today. She says that she is about to publish her watcher report. Boy! can that snail move FAST.

I am going to show to you some of the things I saw today.

Mom won't let me have a camera, so she showed me some pictures and I picked out the ones of crawlly flyings I saw to show you.

The first one I found scratching in the dirt while going potty.

Next one I caught on the fence and played with for awhile until it stopped moving. The other ones I don't mess with because they try and bite me.

I am tired now and want to kneed my blanket and then nap.

ABOUT ME TO YOU!

2009-12-09T21:48:00.000-08:00

I can't believe it! I saw Mom blogging so I
jumped in her lap and here I am! It's been
so long I almost forgot how, but I'm a
SMART cat so it all came back FAST!
Outside is Sooo cold now that my fur hurts.
I mostly stay inside now. I was out late the
other dark out time and a big growlly animal
chased me under our tiny house on wheels
that Mom calls the Car. I was so scared that
I kept growling back even after Mom was
holding me and cooing to me in our warm
safe house. She was unset with herself and
now I don't go out after the dark comes.
I don't go to Auntie Aine's with Mom any
mores. Mom says it's because I peed on
the bed and on Auntie Aine's chair, but
she just doesn't understand. How can I let
Auntie Aine's dog Kiri know what's mine!
I don't really care, it did upset my fur and
self to go in the Car and get used to a new
place even though I thought I settled in
pretty quick after I peed and got the rules
set for Kiri. Well, Mom says that I have to
get down now, but we'll be blogging more
for now on. Good news for me!

I AM NOT A KITTEN ANY MORE, I AM A CAT!

2009-09-06T13:04:00.000-07:00

SINCE CHANGING THE BACKGROUND, REXY'S
POST DON'T SHOW UP. THEY WERE TYPED IN
WHITE FOR THE BLACK BACKGROUND. SOME
HAVE BEEN EDITED. THE REST MAY BE READ
BY LEFT CLICKING ON THE POST AND
DRAGGING. TO BRING OUT THE TEXT WHICH
WILL BE IN GREY.

I am surprised Mom is letting me blog today. She hasn't
wanted to do blog since her going away with her gall
bladder out thing. But, she says today is a very special
day for me. She says this is the day 1 year ago when I
came into being. Mom says that it's called being born.
So it's MY BIRTHDAY! Sometimes I wonder how I can
get more special, but it just keeps happening! Life is so
wonderful, I love being born! I get to play in the Sunny
Outdoors and come in whenever I want. I have special
food that the other kitties don't have-I told you that I
am special. I also love playing with and clearing things
off the flat surfaces (which Mom doesn't really want me
to, but it's so much fun!). I have my own room for
sleeping, well, I do share it with Sweetie kitty and the
rats, but it feels like my room. I wish that Mom was as
happy as me. I do love on her alot to let her know that
she is special to me. My Mom always was and always
will be. Being without her wouldn't be life.

SOMETHING'S HAPPENING

2009-07-18T19:09:00.000-07:00

Something's going on. Mom's shut all

the other kitties in the garage with no

way out. Only me and Sweetie are in

the house. We all have fresh food,

water and potty boxes at the same

time! She's been sleeping alot lately

and not playing with me in the

garden as usual. Snail says that Mom

hasn't talked to her about the July

garden report either. I hope that

everything's okay and that Mom's

okay. Neighbor Vickie came by and

talked with us for a few minutes.

I let her pet me, but since I haven't

been around her for awhile I was a

little nervous and mostly petted

myself on Mom's legs. Vickie said

something to Mom about if Mom

needed any help, something about

soup. That's strange. We have our

own soup. Mom's been eating alot

of soup lately and rubbing her

tummy, but not in the 'this is good'

way. I have to stop now, talking

about food has made me hungry

and I am also getting alittle scared

about my Mom.

WHERE ARE MY POSTS?

2009-07-15T00:15:00.000-07:00

My blog is here. My sidebar is here.
But where are my posts? Mom says
not to get to upset since they are still
in Layout, but I am upset! Meow-ow.
I want my posts back-right now-ouch!

MAYBE IT WAS PAULA

2009-07-09T14:25:00.000-07:00

Mom has watched me being very upsetting.
I jump at noises I used to be curious about.
I don't trust the house kitties coming down
the hall anymores until they are close
enough to smell like kitties. So Mom talked
at me about Paula.
I didn't understand everything. Mom's talk
hurts my thinking parts sometimes and
sometimes I get distracted and just want to
play, but I tried real hard with the Paula.
Once upon a time, long, long ago, before I
came to be there was Paula. And Paula
sometimes would come into the house
because Mom let the kitties come and go
outside when they wanted to. But then one
night when Mom was in bed and her eyes
were shut and it was black out, she heard
something eating at the kitty dish and she
knew that it wasn't a kitty. She woke up and
quickly turned on the light and there was
Paula. Now she wasn't named Paula then.
She was just Possum. So Mom turned off
the light and closed her eyes again. Possum
didn't come in to eat every day, just in the
very cold outside times. They kitties didn't
bother Possum and Possum didn't bother
the kitties. Then one day Possum woke up
Mom again and again the light went on &
there was Possum with 3 babies. It was then
that Possum became Paula. Mom made a
home for Paula and the babies in the 'kitty
take by the handle to the car box'. That way
Mom could take Paula and the babies out to
the garage. But something bad happened and
the babies died. Paula left them out for Mom
to find and fix, but Mom couldn't fix them &
Paula went away. It was after that that some
of the kitties did bad things on the carpet to
let Paula know that This Was Their House
that Mom divided the kitties into inside and
outside kitties and Paula couldn't come in
any more. Mom tells me not to worry that
Nothing can come in any more, but now I
know that not everything out there loves me.

SOMETHING DANGEROUS CAME IN

2009-07-05T22:03:00.000-07:00

Something dangerous came into our
garage where the out door kitties live.
They have their own little kitty sized
flappy door they use. I learned to use
it too. It was hard to learn. Putting my
head down and pushing, but I did it!
But something with a scary smell,
something dangerous came into our
garage today. It wasn't laying on the
little beds Mom made for the kitties.
It didn't use the potty boxes Mom has
for the kitties, but the water dish had
earthy black in it and the food dish was
empty and very dirty. Something scary
that didn't smell like kitty had been there.
I didn't stay. I ran like the wind back into
my house and hoped that Mom wouldn't
stay either and shut the door real quick.
But she wasn't scared like me. She took
the dishes in the kitchen and washed
them. I stayed under the table for awhile
and shivered.

MOM STILL BABIES ME!

2009-06-29T20:38:00.000-07:00

We have this hugest cat visitor sometimes
sleeping on the warm backest porch. I
never talked with him, but yesterday Mom
was sweet talking him with her hand out
trying for a pet, but he wouldn't let her &
lowly growled and jumped high and more
upper high to get away from her and then
on the ground in the side way back near
the fence. I saw my chance and raced over
past Mom and right up to him as Mom was
yelling "No Rexy, No Rexy!!!".
I met him nose to nose and said
"Hi, my name's Rexy. What's yours?"
He said "Bruno, but my mama calls me
Kitty Baby." After sniffing noses I ran back
saying "See Ya!". Mom looked so shocked!
I was proud of me! Our Blackie cat was
behind Mom lowly growling, but Mom told
him to be quiet since he didn't have any
teeth that big cat would cream him. Living
in the country here, I thought that cream
came from the big animals next door. Oh,
I get it. Cream. Big animals, like Bruno.
Mom's so cleaver, but she fusses over me
too much. And I love it!!!

IN THE GARDEN WITH MOM

2009-06-18T16:32:00.000-07:00

I've been helping Mom in the garden.

She digs, and digs, a lot in the earthy

dirt and when she's done, I go and

and digs there too, a lot. I know that

I'm a big help because when I do

this she comes over to me and picks

me up laughing and kisses me and

then puts me down somewhere else.

Then I know that we are done there.

There are so many moving things to

bat at. Some are on the earth and

run and some are in the up off the

earth. I bat things that run and hide

like when I play tag with Sweetie cat.

And some in the up flutter and fly &

I chase. The best is hiding under the

green things and peaking out at Mom.

I pretend that she can't see me, then

I jump out at her and run real fast by.

I don't like being out without Mom so

I watch her real close and when she

goes in I race in before her. I jump

over all the other cats, the inside over

night cats and the out all the time cats.

I don't wait to be asked like Pugsy or

Lucy, I just go like the wind!

MOM WON'T LET ME PLAY WITH SNAKES!

2009-06-12T10:10:00.000-07:00

I found something

like this in the

garden to play with.

He was so much fun!

He curled this way

and that way and

moved in and out of

himself and I kept

pawing and pawing

at him and he kept moving and moving.

Then Mom came along and took him away

from me! I looked around for him, but he

was gone. Then Mom explained that he

was a baby garden snake and that they

can be good for the garden and for me

because he rids the garden of animals

called 'rodents', not to be confused with

our house rats, Blanche & Al. Mom IS

concerned for the tadpoles later when

they become frogs and leave the pond.

I COULDN'T HELP MYSELF-I WAS BAD

2009-06-06T08:09:00.000-07:00

Mom watered the front garden yesterday

and also spent alot of time talking with

Spring about her Garden Report instead

of being with me. I know I am suppose

to be a big kitty now.The other cats get

mad at me when I jump on them and

chase them around even when they are

hisss-e. Mom even gets mad at me when

I race over her and jump on her. But

I can't help it. I don't like being ignored.

Late last nite when Mom went out

front to turn off the plant water, I raced

past her. She came after me calling my

name, but I kept just ahead of her,

teasing. Now I have attention! But then,

Mom went back into the house and

LOCKED the door and didn't come back

to get me! I stayed out all nite on the

back covered porch where all the scary

nite noises are. It was awfal. I am in

the house now and Mom gave me a

talking to: Youbetcha!

I am a good kitty now and have been

loving on Mom all morning.

ps: Spring did a good Garden Report.

Mom gave her an A+ which I guess is

a good thing.

HERE'S ME AGAIN!!!

2009-06-02T19:48:00.000-07:00

Mom has been so busy with Spring in the garden
that I haven't been able to blog. Now that we have
pictures, I am showing off how well I carry things.
Mom says it's called 'fetch'. I Love to fetch.

I don't just fetch my favorite balls, the felty ones

and the furry ones, I also fetch bottle caps, rolled

up paperballs and small metal things.

Mom says that my fetchingmakes me special. But

she's just teasing. I am just special 'cuz I'm me!

I have so much fun in the garden with mom and

the out doors kitties. The dogs over the high

places bark when we come out. At first they

didn't bother me cause I am used to Kiri barking

at Auntie Aine's, but these dogs bark like they

don't like me and are mean. Sometimes they

jump at the high board between us and slam

into them. I got upset with that and I

jumped back and slammed back! It sure

surprised mom! I want to do everything in

the garden that mom does.

I dig in the dirt with her when she puts green

things in the ground and when she puts

green things into pots, I take them out and

roll the pots around. We have so much fun!

SPRING WAS SPRUNG ON ME

2009-04-23T21:13:00.000-07:00

The front way to our house feels all clean on my paw pads and looks so pretty now that Mom has swept, washed and fancied everything. She has also brought a swirly green thing from the backyard to sit up front in the lavender. Mom says it's a garden snail and that it's name is Spring. She says that Spring has real life and has a real job watching over and reporting on the living things in the garden in her own blog. That made me feel sad. I don't want anything but me and Mom to have blogs because we share special. I wanted to pee on Spring, but Mom stopped me and then Mom brought me nose to nose with Spring and I did feel her life shivering inside that metal! Mom then explained that Spring has a job while my blog was for me only. I felt better.

MOM'S BACK!!!

2009-04-14T10:03:00.000-07:00

When she first went away, I was okay, because she always came back after 1 or 2 sleeps, but this was different and I got scared! Another lady came to take care of us. I liked her, but she's not my mom. Aunty Stacey came by and I got a lot of pets and love, but then I got mad and growled at her, YourNotMyMom! I cried alot, but mom didn't hear me.
I got mad and hated Sweetie and chased her and teased her and bited her. I didn't care. I was miserable. Then I just sorta forgot and thought that I was always mean and miserable. I was good with mom's things. I didn't clear anymore table tops. I didn't chew on the plants. Not the feeling alive ones or the one that feels not alive but looks pretty. Still mom didn't come back. I kept promising myself that if I was good, mom would come back. Then when she didn't, I'd chase Sweetie until she learned to hide under the bed or way up high on the upper bed were I can't get to her.
Then after forever! someone was making door noises to come in-and-there was mom! I jumped up and love her and love her and she picked me up and petted and kissed me and loved on me so much. We loved on each other for so long. I purred and purred. I hadn't purred in so long and it felt so good deep inside me. I guess that my purrs belong to mom. I am so happy that she's home. Now she's turning into my mom again and scolds me for racing around the house and for tormenting Sweetie and she even smacked me for biting her. I am so glad that she's back and still loves me and makes me feel my purrs.

THE SEEDLINGS

2009-03-21T19:21:00.000-07:00

Mom and I played in the bathtub today. I was on the inside and she leaned over the edge putting dirt in the little squares with green things in them. The squares with green things will then go to into my room under the bright lights which mom says will help them grow. It was almost as much fun as playing outside.

I got to smell earthy on me and inside my nose.

THE MONSTER

2009-03-19T13:07:00.000-07:00

Lucy has been here the longest. She remembers before here. She remembers to before any of us. I don't tease, chase or jump on Lucy. It would be like being rude to a queen. And she is quite brave. She isn't afraid of anyone not our friend. She lets anyone pet her. Sometimes she goes up the ladder to the dark high place in the garage for days. She's not even afraid of The Monster. When The Monster wakes and roars through the house, Lucy slowly walks around it like it's not even in her way.

Sweetie and I run and hide and shiver very softly so It won't know where we are.

Most of the time, The Monster just sits quiet in the corner or in the hallway, and I even forget to be afraid, but when It wakes and starts to roar and move, not even mom can control It. It

rushes around back and forth with mom hanging on to It trying to hold it back. But It moves taking mom with It this way and that until It gets tired and goes back to It's resting place. Mom is tired too after all that wrestling.

LOVE IN THE LITTLE ROOM

2009-03-19T07:56:00.000-07:00

I like it when mom goes into the little room and sits down. She's just right for me to stretch up and she pets me full length. After lots of petting she takes my face in her hands and leans over and kisses me telling me how much she loves me. I can tell. Her voice smells lovingly. Then she gets up and the noise happens, I stretch up again and watch the water whirl away. Life is Fun!

ON THE PORCH

2009-03-18T10:35:00.000-07:00

I got to go out on the back porch today for a little while. It was fun and a little scary. I yearn to go out more, especially when the bright light in the sky warms me, but mom is so careful about me going out that I think that she is too careful. Blackie was on the porch. He lives in the garage with the other cats.Only Sweetie and I live in the house. Sometimes Lucy gets to come in, but not Pugsy. I heard that he and Blackie do bad things on the rug so they can't come in. At first I thought that it was my fault that they can't come in because when I did bad things on the rug, mom got a funny light that showed up many bad spots which Pugsy and Blackie had put there long before I came along. Mom's cleaned everything up pretty well, but she says 'boys will be boys'. So I'm the only boy allowed in the house. Sometimes I envy the boys their garage life. It seems so exciting! They have clean beds and food bowls and potty boxes AND they get to go outside anytime they want!

TO AUNTIE AINE'S with side trips

2009-03-13T11:30:00.000-07:00

We went for an outting today. First, we stopped at Auntie Stacey's. Mom held me close to her, so I was very quiet and didn't growl and neither did Bandit or Isabel who live with Auntie Stacey. I understand that Isabel the grown house cat doesn't even like Bandit the kitten. We were all very mannerly and well behaved. I'm just glad that mom didn't put me down. It may not have gone so well. Then we went on to Auntie Aine's and stayed a few days. Kiri and I ran through the house chasing each other with much glee. What fun! I have my own room there where mom sleeps with me. I also have my own potty, which is a comfort. Mom also brings my pretty blue scratching post with us so I don't get yelled at for stretching my toes at the wrong places. We left all too soon.

THE OUTING

2009-03-05T13:32:00.000-08:00

Mom says that we are going for a walk.
I don't know what that means. I know what going to Auntie Aine's means. I love Auntie Aine's. I have my own room there with my food and potty box and my own bed where mom sleeps with me. And I love to play with Kiri, Auntie Aine's Poodle who is just my size. We run around and chase and have so much fun. I love my brothers and sisters, but Kiri is my bestest friend. I go to get the mail with mom and Dawn weighs me on the letter scale and then mom and Dawn get all excited because I am bigger. Sometimes I go shopping with mom, but not too often. Sometimes I go to Kyle and Ryan's house, but I don't like it there. It smells dangerous, like a mean cat. And that gets me all upset and I hiss. I don't like to hiss. It makes me feel bad and mean inside.

THE VISITOR

A lady came to the house today. She's been here before to see the other's as well as me. But today she just saw me. My mom says that she's the Vet. I guess that she's a nice lady. She has a soft, sweet voice, but there is a sharp point coming out of her hand that sticks me in my neck that I don't like. I hope that if she comes again she will keep her hand in her pocket. My brothers and sister tell me that she doesn't come very often. Only about when the sun starts staying out longer. I don't know much about that.I haven't been here that long. I can only remember back to when mom fed me herself while holding me in one hand.It took a long time for me to eat out of a dish. I didn't like it very much. I kept trying to bury that stuff because I liked my milk best.
