: )

I'm a very happy cat today.

Look. Can you tell?

Irritated

I'm worn out.

I think I accidentally sniffed up some dust (or it may have been catty-biscuit crumbs), and have had the catty-choos nearly all day.

I have tried nose-nudging things to see if that will help, but it didn't work.

In the end I gave up and had a nap. I have woken up now (see below), and the problem seems to have sorted itself, but I am still tired from all of the earlier catty-choos :(

Is it a bird?

I had some huge catty-excitement this afternoon; my little catty-heart nearly popped out of my mouth!

I was in my garden, stretching my neck to lick my tail, when I heard a rustling in the bushes to my left. My head shot up and I looked over, tuning in my super catty-vision.

I saw some feathers, so started up a pre-pounce tail swish. Then this massive thing ran out onto the grass! It was covered in feathers of all different colours: brown, yellow, purple, white. It was quite fat, and had a really long tail. In fact, its tail alone was nearly as long as a whole Magpie! Its head was weirdest of all; a completely different colour to the rest of it: shiny blue, with two big red circles around the eyes.
What was this thing?

I was sizing it up, but realised there was no way I'd get my little catty mouth round it. I'm only small :(
Just as I was thinking this, it moved off at great speed. It didn't fly away like a Pigeon would. Instead, it ran. It did look a bit like a bird, but I've not seen a bird do this before; they normally just fly off.

It sprinted through a gap in the fence. Even though I didn't think I could catch it, curiosity got the better of me and I went into stealth mode, stalking it with my body low to the ground.

When I got through the gap it had passed through, it was gone.

This left me very confused. It looked like a bird, but I'm not sure it was. Does anyone know what it was?

Miaow, miaow, miaow, miaow

Hello catty friends and humans.

I've had a very busy week, catching up on naps, so haven't been around much (apart from a bit of happy catty-dancing on Monday).

I'm a bit bored of napping now, so intend to be up and about a bit over the next few days.

I just wanted to run something past any human readers quickly; catty readers will already understand this.

Sometimes, when we miaow, it's not for a particular reason: we don't want food, a cuddle, or to be let outside.
Sometimes we just like to chat :) I love wandering around my home chatting. I think this is because I'm part Siamese, and Siamese cats are know for being very chatty. Sometimes I like daddy to chat back to me.

So, humans, next time your cat is wandering around miaowing, miaow back at them. We like it :)

Happy catty-dance

I have had such a good morning that I just had to share it with you.

First, I managed to bury a little catty-poo so deep that you wouldn't even know it's there (one of my catty-promises I made a few days ago).

Then, when I came inside, I let daddy pick me up and cuddle me for what seemed like catty-hours, without squirming to get away once.

To round off my good morning I gave the left side of my face a thorough clean, in keeping with my promise to give it as much attention as the right side.

I was so happy with myself that I did a little catty happy-dance, which you can watch...

One catty-promise down

I achieved one of my catty-promises today, by reaching the fifth branch of my favourite climbing tree, in my garden.

I had a big run up , and scrambled up the trunk. It took me 24 catty-seconds to get there. I'm not sure what this is in human-seconds....

It did take me several catty-hours to get back down again though.....

Recovering...

Hello fellow cats, and humans.

I've been a bit silly. On the same night that I wrote about my 'catty-promises', I managed to break open one of the Catnip mice. Catnip went everywhere! I've never been able to resist it so I had a bit of a catty-binge.
The only problem with this is that I've been on the bed, feeling rubbish, for the last 3 days.
I did manage to go outside for a bit, earlier, but it was too bright, so I came back in.

I hope to feel more cat-like tomorrow...
