Muttering Me
Mood:  loud
Terry sometimes calls me a teddy bear because she says I am cuddly.

If so, then I am one who goes Meow! Meow! because I talk and mutter the entire time I am being held. Sometimes the family calls me "Muttering Muddy."

HAPPY THANKSGIVING
Mood:  a-ok
Wishing you all a Happy Thanksgiving.

Myst and I can sense the excitement around the house and we are burning off energy chasing each other up and down the hall as we always did when he was a kitten too. Turkey smells so good.

Cats like us with good homes, have much to be thankful for. May all cats find a loving home.

Myst as a Kitten
Mood:  a-ok
I've been showing older pictures of Myst when he was a kitten. Today, he is still a small Persian, the smallest Persian I know, but he has lots of energy to run, pounce and play. Just yesterday, I was innocently walking down the hall when out of nowhere -- Myst pounced! The next thing I know, the fur flies as we run rapidly from room to room.

Oil for Myst
Mood:  sharp
Myst has been scratching himself too much in this dry weather, so the family is giving him a little bit of oil every day. He is picky and only likes liquid margarine, for some reason, so they put a dot on the table for him when they eat.

Bleh, I am not interested in human food at all, well except to paw it and see if it rolls well.

Things to Watch
Mood:  energetic
I don't know what Myst finds so fascinating about TV and monitors. He chases the cursor around, even.

I prefer mirrors. I see that beautiful handsome cat on the other side and he sees me, too. We both have been trying to figure out ways to get to each other. We've had no luck so far, but it doesn't stop us from trying --- and this is all MUCH more interesting than TV!

Being Up High
Mood:  a-ok
I am not a big fan of being held and I moan and complain when someone has me in their arms. Myst and Dandelion like it just fine though. Myst can not jump and he is thrilled when anyone puts him in high places so he can look around and feel important.

Humans Live Longer Thanks to Us
Mood:  cool
It has been scientifically proven that, when humans are owned by cats, they live longer. Petting us reduces high blood pressure, but often we will hang out with them when they work on computers and stuff, so they do not get carpal tunnel so easily.

Terry says she does not get as much work done, either, but at least she says she may never get carpal tunnel thanks to frequent stops to pet us.

Adorable Pair
Mood:  silly
What is it like to just sit there and be cute and tiny? Even though Terry says I am the most handsomest cat in the world, all Myst and Jenny have to do is just stand there and they look adorable.

Our Pets
Mood:  chillin'
Humans can be quite entertaining. Rushing around from room to room, watching them pick up things, dust things, mop things, do dishes, sweep floors, carry groceries -- and taking on and off their furs -- can be just plain amusing. Who knows what they are thinking?

I am glad we have pet humans. They are fun to watch and fun to love. I highly recommend having pets to everyone.

Universal Cat
Mood:  happy
Dinnertime! Myst has to eat regular Science Diet and a little oil now and then. He can have nothing else or he gets sick. Dandelion has to have hairball formula Purina - and some moist canned food now and then. He has had a super severe problem all of his life and this is the only thing that works. Me? I can have anything anytime -- and I usually do. I love it all. Terry calls me the "Universal Cat" because Dandelion and Myst can not be in the same room together and can not eat each other's food, but I can eat anything and get along with anyone.
