Wonderful Wednesday!

Other than having D'Boy home for 2 whole weeks to play with, there are many good things going on around here at the moment! :) It seems that my new catnip planter has been planted and there are 4 varieties of wonderful fragrant 'nip in there, with 2 more growing in separate pots... This seems most pleasing! :)

Now for the really wonderful news!!!! Oh yes my wonderful friends Trooder, Shadow, Molly and Jack the woffie have sent me a couple of Matatabi seeds so I can make Daddy grow some for me, and good as gold Daddy came home from work last night and went straight out to the greenhouse to plant the seeds and put them in the propagator! While he was out there I noticed him tending my next crop of cat grass too! :) Oh what a wonderful Daddy I have and what a wonderful Wednesday this is... Soon I shall have access to some top notch 'nip as well as some seriously good Matatabi (a.k.a. Silver Vine) and be able to spend my days in a merry drug induced fog... ;) I mean who cares that much about kittens when they are so eer umm "Happy" that they can can't quite walk straight, thinking has become all eer "Foggy" and I have a serious case of the "Munchies" ;) Sometimes it really is a good life! :)

Tigmut'hep Tuesday...

Dear goodness I think I may have to pack my bags and take myself off to Yao-lin's freezing hovel on the Isle of Wight at this rate... Yes, I'm doomed! Doomed I say! What does that woman who says she's my Mum think she's doing to me, announcing the fact that she's forcing me to live with not just one ruddy Abyssinian female, but two!!! How can I cope, they're bossy you know and they like taking over all the nice warn sleeping spots I might like to try out... At least this new one is tiny, maybe I can just sit on her if she starts sleeping in places I feel like being?! Oh and there's the extra special food that woman keeps giving her, it's mighty tasty and getting my paws on some more leftovers wouldn't go amiss... She's also been a little more liberal with the cat treats of late... Ok I can see a few minor upsides to this situation after all! ;)

Then again there's those nice looking new planters that have appeared in my run, the cat grass that Daddy's growing for me in his new heated propergator and those nice new catnip plants too. Two varieties I have not tried as yet and I hear that the woman is going to be planting them along with my existing 3 varieties in the new planters, giving me more delectable catnip as well as more room for running around in out there... I hear she's planing to add a nice high shelf or sleeping platform and a ladder too, or might make us a huge scratcher and climbing frame this year! Ok, I guess she's my Mum but I reserve the right to grump, grumble and hiss at Setra all I like... What do you mean I do that to everykitty?! How dare you! I'm a cool dude and a total studly mancat I'll have you know and just in case you've all forgotten I'm D'Boss!!! Yep, all the food is mine, all the toys are too and you just have to know that all that catnip is mine all mine too! :)

Ok time for a nap now and don't you go waking me up now...

Purring for World Peas...

It's time I reminded every kitty to give Peas a Chance! Although I must say I did find a roast carrot a few days ago and they too are most tasty and greatly to my liking! :) So if you can't find Peas, then Roast Carrots are certainly worth a try...

What do you mean I've got it all wrong again?! Honestly it's not a side affect from a life time of 'nip abuse, and my ears have been cleaned recently... Oh well if I keep trying I'll eventually find Peace! In the meantime I'll stick to my Peas, while giving Roast Carrots a chance... ;)

Mancat Monday - Harvesting the Catnip!

Oh what a wonderful weekend it's been here! Firstly Mummy, Dad and My Boy took Isis away for the day on Saturday, so that Ramses and I could have to lovely peaceful mancat time to ourselves, following a good breakfast served to us at the correct time for a change! ;)

The day was full of the smells of stewing steak as Mummy'd put a casserole on in the slow cooker so they had dinner to come home too, this caused many lovely dreams about swimming in slowly stewed steak I can tell you! So when everyone arrived home with Isis and some fishy Bozita we were most grateful and scoffed the lot in no time flat... ;) Things just kept getting better and better, as Mummy bought out of a carrier bag a small bag of Royal Canin Digestive Comfort 38 which is most tasty and very crunchy too, just the way I like my bikky! Mummy says that if Ramses and I like this we can have a big bag of it in about a month's time, so needless to say we're both making the bikky vanish and fussing round Mummy lots... ;) Sadly Mummy also bought something to keep us mancats out of the kitten bikky ready for Isis next litter of kittens, so much for our gaining weight in sympathy and all that! :(

Finally and best of all after harvesting the last of the carrots, bringing in some more runner beans, starting on the sweetcorn and getting a few more tomotoes and chillis from the veg patch and greenhouse, Mummy decided to help me harvest some of the catnip and dry it ready to make into toys for Kissmouse Day! :) Oh what a wonderful smell came wafting from the kitchen as the 'nip dryed, I just lay on the floor snorting in the good smells and dreaming of new toys and vast piles of 'nip. Seeing my tortured and wistful state Mummy was good enough to supply me with a little of the good stuff to give it a good quality control check, I can happily inform you that it's some of the very bestest 'nip I have ever had the pleasure of rolling in, snorting and generally hoovering up! :) Ramses had a little and even Isis partook of d'nip and both agreed it was the finest ever!!!!

Mancat and My Birthday Monday!

Oh what a wonderful Mancat Monday, my boy is back from Yao-lin's Island and it's full of toys and tasty treats for me because I'm 8 years old today! :) This morning I got a new mousie toy, the little mousie is attached to a purple ball and wobbles and moves when you bop it senseless! It's deeply satisfying to belt it silly... ;)

Following that I had some gormet cat food from Sweden for my breakfast and I heat I'm getting more of it for dinner too and this time it'll be Reindeer flavour! :) Oh how I've always wanted to nibble Roudolf and Mummy has finally sensed this and is enabeling me to live out my dreams... ;)

I hear I have some more toys to come after D'boy gets back from school and the Dr's (he's having a tetanus shot), I can smell them on the top shelf in the living room, but can't quite get to them so I'll have to wait for now... Though this mousie may well suffer greatly due to my frustration! ;)

Time now for a Birthday nap on the sofa in Mummy's office I think... Oh yer life is sweet one days like this! :)

Mancat Monday Moan...

What is it about my requirements that Mummy doesn't get? I want my steak and venison cut up a certain way and to just the right size, is that so much to ask? I think not! Does she get it right, again I think not! So there's me having to not only put up with a house full of kittens that insist on being too cute and helpless to play "bop" with, but I have to put up with inferior quality service round here! It's just shocking what I have to cope with...

I mean I had to moan loudly for over 2 minutes this morning before Mummy'd put down her mug of tea and slice of toast to get up from the table to let me out into the cat run! Did she think I'd shut up or go away because she didn't jump at my first command, if she did she's sadly mistaken! ;) Remember Mummy, I am Mancat hear me moan! I want some catnip now!!!!!!!
