Whinging Wednesday...

Well it's about time I had a good whinge after the treatment I've been putting up with recently... Honestly who asked my permission to take me to the VET's?! Did I say I wanted the badman to stick a needle in me?! I was feeling purrfectly well until I got that done to me and then you go on about my sulking for 36 hrs and even refusing to eat. What did you expect? You had me tortured and then expect me to be convinced that you haven't also poisoned all my food... You must think I'm daft! Oh no not me, I waited to see if those Abys got sick off the food before agreeing to eat again. Plus reaping the benifits of making you worry enough about me and my reaction to make sure I got my paws on some pretty good treat too! ;) Now if you don't mind I think I'll go sleep on your bed for the rest of the day, after all I don't want you to think you're forgiven as yet as there might be some more treats laying around that I might like later on today... :)

Big Fluffy Cushions!

Oh what luxury, what bliss! Mummy's made me two lovely, snuggly, warm and fluffy, faux fur cushion covers for my favourite lounging cushion! Apparently that means I can always have one on the go, even if I can't be bothered to move when throwing up after too much 'nip and a large dose of cat grass... ;) Well in my defence sometimes it's hard to move when the room keeps spinning and the floor feels all wobbly...

Anyway I can now snuggle up on my big old cushion in real style! :) I even hear that Mummy and Dad are thinking of buying some more of this lovely faux fur to make matching cat blankets for under our big bed at the end of the chaise lounge and for the back of the sofa where we all like to sit for much of the evening. Well we can see the TV over the beans heads from there you know! ;) I do so hope that Mummy sticks to her word and gets some more of this lovely fluff as I'm a cat who likes the good things in life you know...

Now where did I leave my catnip fishy?! I'm feeling in need of a little more 'nip in my system...

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... ;)

Winter is coming too early this year (I like it to arrive on December 20th and leave again Jan 3rd) and I'm feeling the cold. So to keep myself from freezing I decided to raid the dressing up box that the long suffering Yao-Lin sent to us earlier in the year!

First of all I looked at the Hawaiian outfit and decided a pink bikini top and a grass skirt really wasn't warm enough, let alone an outfit befitting my dignity. I think it's more an Isis thing... Next came the teddy bear hat, which I tried on for size. It's a little small, but does keep the ears nice and warm, plus it'd stay on well if I wanted to wear it outside - so I think I'll put my pawmark on that one! ;) Then came the deer stalker hat, with it's little holes for my ears to poke through. Surprisingly this also keeps them pretty warm and it's a far better fit (although I think Mummy should add some Velcro or elastic to the ear flaps so I can keep it on firmly when I want to venture out in the cold). Lastly I added the scarf to my ensemble, this not only gives it an extra layer of warmth, but I think it rather finishes off the look! :) Oh yes that one's my outfit for sure and has been suitably pawmarked as such. Purrsonally In think it's very fetching and it certainly helps keep a poor cold kitty warm at this time of year, which of course if most important!

The only other thing I now need is a hot teddy bear to cuddle with from SantaPaws! Something like a Beanie baby, but wheat filled so Mummy can warm it up for me in the microwave oven before putting me to bed with it. Oh yer something like that would be purrfect for a cat like me... :)

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!!!!

My Boy is Back and Meme

Oh what a wonderful life it is, the decoration is nearly done, all the tiles are up in the kitchen, the birds are in the garden and D'boy is home at long last! :) I've missed him so much and now he's home and all is right in my World... Soon he will be rested and the toys will come out again and I can play with them, oh how I have missed the Lego! ;)

Other than that I have been tagged for a meme by Black Cat, so seeing as I'm in such a good mood today I thought I'd do it! :)

The rules: Link to the one who tagged you. List the rules on your blog. Tell about 6 unspectacular quirks of yours. Tag some blogger friends with links. Leave a comment on their blog to let them know they've been tagged.

1) I have a real passion for Lego and love nothing better than running round the house with some little Lego man in my mouth, while D'boy chases me to save his poor little Lego man from his fate! ;)

2) I love to eat sweetcorn, it's my fave and I'll even leave meat to get to one of those sweet and tender niblets! :)

3) I'm mostly forced to sleep alone, none of the other cats will sleep with me even... All this just because I snore really loudly! :(

4) I love my belly, so much so that I like to show it off all the time and keep my belly fur down to a bare minimum so it's far more visible than it would be if I let all my black fluffs grow all over it! ;)

5) I love to nip the seams of Mummy's jeans and trousers, (one of the reasons she often wears skirts I hear. I even do it to Dad's occasionally, but as yet he hasn't chosen to wear skirts! ;)

6) I love teddy bears and sleep with them as often as possible, well they don't complain about my snoring so why not?! ;)

These are all elements of what make me unique and different from those Abys that Mum loves so much. Honestly she'd be lost without me and my own special ways! :)

I'm tagging my buddy Yao-lin as I know he has some amazing traits to share with you all! I have also tagged that lovely ladycat Miss Peach as I'm sure she'll enjoy it too! :)

Mancat Monday Meme

Well it's been an interesting weekend here, Ramses and I had a peaceful day on Saturday after being served breakfast at the proper time for once. Mummy & Dad took Isis out for the day to make it an extra good and restful day for us mancats, so even if Ramses was a bit of a whiny baby about missing Mummy and 'sis it was lovely to have so much peace and quiet! :) When at last they came home they bought home piles and piles of the yummy Swedish cat food I told you all about a while back - so I forgave them for bringing Isis home again! ;)

That nice Mrs. Oz from the The Cat Realm tagged me for a meme all about my name, this is great 'cause I love things about me! ;) Anyway here's how the Name Game goes:

What is your name?
Tigmut'hep, though I'm called Tigs or sometimes Tigger

If you could change your name, what would it be?
Tigmut'hep Ruler of the World

What is your pet's name?
Ramses (even if he doesn't accept this fact)

If you could change your pet's name, what would it be?
Slave (but I fear that'd cause a riot!)

What is your brother or sister's name?
Some may consider Ramses and Isis to be my siblings, but it's not true!

If you could change their name, what would it be?
As I have said Slave for Ramses and Isis would be Gone... :)

Now I have to tag as many people (or critters) as the letters in my new name!
Eeer I think there are some real advantages to going by the shortened version of my name, Tigs! So that's 4 letters...

Hopefully the following will have as much fun as I did playing the Name Game:
Yao-lin
Castle
Kimo & Sabi
