Easy like Sunday Mother's Day Morning

Laying around with your toady brother (look at that belly!) is a great way to spend a Sunday morning. Yes, we should be doing something special for Mom, but hey, we are special, so she is lucky to have us! But really, we are lucky to have a Mom that spoils us rotten (like we deserve). She is going to have a big BBQ at her mom's house today with all her brothers and nieces and nephews, so she should have a nice day. Hope every bean and fur mom has a great Mother's Day!

Three Names Meme

Lots of kitties wanted to know what our three names were after Mom went to see Cats the other night. Got us to thinking this would be a fun meme.

In case you aren't familiar with The Naming of Cats, in the Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats, by T.S. Eliot, we all have three names! So, in this meme, you must link to the originator of the meme (that is me), list the following rules, and then tell us:

1. The name that the family uses daily (such as Peter, Agustus, Alonzo, or James)
2. The name that is particular, a name thats peculiar, and more dignified (such as Munkustrap, Quaxo, or Coricopat)

3. What you are doing when you are thinking of the name that only you know, and will never confess (when engaged in rapt contemplation), that deep and inscrutable singular name

Then tag three cats (and let them know they are tagged) to give us their names.

Ok, so here are mine:

1. Tara
2. MissyTarinaPuss
3. Curled up on the corner of the bed, gazing at the ceiling fan

Ok, Kavan, lets hear yours...

My names are:
1. Kavan
2. MrKaverMan
3. Curled up on the rug in front of the fire place, staring into space

We tag the first three cats to ask us our names, Kimo and Sabi, Parker, and Adan.

Can't wait to read all the names!

Thursday, May 8, 2008

Hey, Tara, how come I didn't get to tag three names????

OK Kavan, go ahead and tag the next three who asked our names.....

Goody, Goody, I tag the Meezers, Mr. Hendrix, and Tamra (swoon....)

Musical Cats?

Kavan: Mom was sure acting weird tonight Tara

Tara: I know, she went out with her mom for, like, 5 hours, to see Cats...

Kavan: But there are cats here! US!

Tara: But Mom said these were MUSICAL Cats!

Kavan: And then she called me Rum TumTugger, what was that all about?

Tara: You got me. Then she rambled on about us having three names, and now understanding how to address us.

Kavan: Well, I think she got the addressing part right. But what was with the bit about always touching us and then getting all smoochy? I mean, of course she can give us pets if she addresses us right.

Tara: Yeah, I know, weird...

Kavan: weird...

Knock Knock

Its still Thursday here (barely), so come on Mom, here is my knock knock joke for Camie's fund raiser...

Mom: Ok Tara, go ahead....

Tara: Knock, Knock

Mom: Who's there?

Tara: Igloo

Mom: Igloo who?

Tara: Igloo going to take me outside NOW before I break through this glass???

Mom: Yeeshh...that was bad

Tara: Hey, I'm almost out of time!

Monday Memes

We got tagged by Boy to do the 6 word meme, and we saw another cool meme on Sammy and Miles blog, so since Mom has been too lazy to help us do anything very original, we thought we would give them a whirl today.

The Six Word Meme:

1) Write your own six word memoir
2) Post it on your blog and include a visual illustration if you'd like
3) Link to the person that tagged you in your post, and to the original post if possible so we can track it as it travels across the blogosphere
4) Tag at least five more blogs with links
5) Don't forget to leave a comment on the tagged blogs with an invitation to play
6) Have fun!

Tara: Aloof, elegant, beautiful, sometimes tolerates Kavan

Kavan: Closets, doors, cabinets, banisters, to explore!


And this is the fun meme we got from Sammy, Miles and Billy:

1. With my beautiful eyes I can see:
Tara: Birds!
Kavan: Mom and Dad in bed waiting for me...

2. With my soft nose I can smell:
Tara: Kavan....
Kavan: Any food in the house

3. With my velvet paws I can touch:
Tara: Crane flies I catch outside
Kavan: Mom's cheek when I wake her up in the morning

4. With my sharp ears I can hear:
Tara: Mom when she closes the car door when she comes home from day hunting
Kavan: Dad going to the bathroom at 3 am

5. With my sandpaper tongue I can taste:
Tara: Temptations!
Kavan: Temptations!

These are both making it around, so anyone who hasn't played yet should!

Friday Fun with Mom's Hair

I love to sit on the top of the chair behind Mom. Sometimes her hair smells so good I just need to play in it. Other times I get really excited, and her hair is so much fun! Dad was playing his whistle, and I got so excited I ran over on the top of the couch behind him and tried to bite (gently!), his hair on the top of his head while he was playing, but he doesn't have any hair there! So I ran back to Mom. Her hair can really make me drool!

Yes, that is my tongue...

Then I just had to get a mouth full!

Ohhh, her hair is so much fun! Good thing she has a tough scalp!

Meezer Mancat Monday

A real meezer mancat teaches his big sister all of his secret tricks. Like getting on the kitchen counter and whapping glasses onto the floor. Like opening cabinets. Like opening the door to Dad's office, and both of us going in to explore. Like walking on the banister two stories up. Like jumping on the fence.

Unfortunately, I haven't been able to teach her how not to get caught. Then we both get in trouble.

Sorry Tara.....

Distractions

Sorry we haven't been around much. Mom has been major distracted! And this is what I think of that! Anyway, I'll be around visiting this week, but probably not posting much. But we are fine, and Dad is doing great. But more of those big life decisions we will fill you in on soon!

Together Tuesday

Maybe he is not so bad.......

Meezer Monday

I can't believe its Meezer Monday again already, and that I haven't blogged for a WEEK! Mom was gone much of last week, and then she was helping Dad, but that is NO EXCUSE! Dad is doing great, he got his stitches out, and now just looks like he is healing from a fight. The weather has been lovely here, so Mom has been taking us out. Look how close I am to these fev-vers! (you may need to bigify)

I just knew I could get one. Then Kavan got in the way....

Brother!
That wasn't helpful at all!

I just know I'm going to get one of those birdies one of these days!

Happy Meezer Monday every kitty!
