Ms. C ..... where are you?

Stygia: Ms. C took off for the day.  When she's not here, I like to occupy her chair immediately:

Abby: I still like my spot on the table in the window the best. The better to keep my eyes on you, Styggie.  But I am getting very lonely without Ms. C here at home. When is she coming back?!

Stygia: I don't know, Abby, but it's not going to stop us from our daily fun, is it?!  (proceeds to lay in place for about 45 seconds, not moving, but wearing static "scary" face)

Don't forget to stop over and see Stygia at House Panthers today!

Good Morning!

Stygia: Hi there, Abby. It's sunny, and our mom has opened the window. What shall we do today?

Abby: I bet you can guess what's on my mind...


(sounds of whapping and flopping, followed by thundering)

(sounds of rolling, tumbling, whapping, and fake growling)

Stygia: Ms. C was a little worried when she saw me doing my "snake" impression:

Abby: I don't know about you, but I really think this thing needs to be kicked! Bitten! ARRR! It makes me feel frisky every time I see it!

We hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!

Cat Loaf

Stygia: Ms. C says that I am embodying the idea of the "cat loaf." I asked her what she meant, and all she'd say was, "You know, like a loaf of cat." Hmmm.

Tabby Tail Action!

Abby: This situation looks peaceful enough. But as you, Stygia, and I know, it's not going to last, is it? Hee hee hee!

If she thinks she can just saunter across the room like that, well, she has another cat coming! I have become much more agile and adept since I first met Styggie. My tail and I launch into action!I usually don't play with my silly octopus toy very much, but today it was fascinating (maybe it was the nip....). I hugged it and bunnykicked it and in general tried to RIP IT APART!! (Ms. C: The people who made it must have known cats would want to try to rip it up, because I snoopervised carefully, but Abby was unable to rip any of it up. Good!).

But... you wanted proof that I am really an angel, right? Hee hee. Yes, the next picture shows off my sweet side:

Stygia: Two days ago, you got to see the front half of this picture. Ms. C asked me if she could post the "other end" of the picture today, she says she loves it so much for some reason, and since just about any part of me is beautiful, of course I agreed.

New Favorite Place

Stygia: Ever since Ms. C moved this table to its new location by the window, we have been inhabiting it. My little sister, Abby, seems to think it is a game when I am sitting up here. She tries to jump up too (and most often fails!!) and knock me off, but I always win! It is also a great place for me to "sharpen my paw pads" as Ms. C calls it.

Abby: This is a great spot for watching things! I can watch the birds, bugs, leaves, and rain outside. I can watch Stygia. I can watch Ms. C and Mr. R. When Stygia is on it, I can even watch her from below, through the glass!

Oh, oh... today, somebody made me blush! Tristan of Tabbylicious said I would make a fine Miss Autumn... and created some fine artwork to illustrate it. You should stop by his blog and check it out!

Easy On Sunday

Abby: You probably think we never take a break from our fast-paced life of wrestling and chasing. But even we need to recharge sometimes. Today's evidence will clearly illustrate it:



Stygia: Oh, yes... this sunlight feels so wonderful on my dark fur! I am going to stay here as long as it lasts.

We hope everyone is having a great weekend.
